I never tried to explore the Pico deep sleep indeed. I used it with esp32 with great results even if the wake time of 200 ms does not make certain applications viable. Thanks for the point.

Never said that it's a good thing that LLMs know less. It's a negative thing and I suspect it's like that because of good documentation in PDF format. So you usually need a lot less help in forums, and the doc itself is less

You can downclock the Pico as you can overclock it in order to reduce power usage. By default AFAIK it already more or less matches the ESP32 power usage, and downclocking it should be able to reach the one of the ESP8266, likely, but I&#x2

I spent the latest three or four months doing embedded programming. After using extensively the ESP8266 and ESP32, now I'm quite certain I prefer big times the RP2040 (that is, the Raspberry Pico processor, but you can find it in diffe

Why don't people just tell us what they think, instead of what we "should" do with these kind of titles? I find this paternalism really off putting. Less lame title: Why I don't run XYZ.

Make sure to check the other works of floooh (Andre) as well. I'm porting his ZX Spectrum emulator to the RP2040 these days, and working with his code is amazing: it's clean, precise, never more complicated than needed, with a dee

2057 days / 365 = 5.6 years ago. Besides the main argument still holds true, if you think at how the BSD license works. A fork can be continued with a different license, but the work accumulated in 15 years remains BSD, so it's no

I know all this things. Again: look at MLX.

This post is about training not inference. And llama.cpp has similarly simple LoRa training code. There is nothing in neural networks themselves so complex to justify the amount of complexity the Python-ML community piled up. MLX, for ins

Is this able to replace PyTorch, ... in normal practice? No. Does this show that in general the most used ML frameworks are a mess? Yes.

When I chose BSD for Redis, I did it exactly for these reasons. Before Redis, I mostly used the GPL license. Then my beliefs about licensing changed, so I picked the BSD, since it's an "open field" license, everything can h

The SSPL is useful exactly for the reasons you outlined, mainly. To preserve the ability to make money of the original authors is just a side effect. The SSPL point from the point of view of the Free Software Movement is (whatever was the r

My parallel is between AGPL and SSPL. The SSPL protects from companies like Amazon: it can protect other companies, or can protect hackers that don't want to see their work exploited (and make zero profits from their stuff). It's

Yep, these are problematic statements, since what they actually mean is "as long as I'm in charge" from the POV of project managers, CEOs, ... depending on the context. And even when people don't change conditions change

Branding is important but it's not Coca-Cola and we are not normal customers of something. I believe that in the end who wins is who provides technical excellence and a license that works for the use case. The reality is that most of t

I like Andrew, but I think that this way of telling the story does not match the reality of the BSD license. With the BSD license, there are many potential forks of a project (with potentially different licenses) that compete at the same ti

Sure, you can do it in a deterministic way just setting the temperature to zero and writing the prompt always in the same way. If T=0 (you always select top scoring token) and prompt is identical, the result is always the same.

I'll try to expose again my idea that somebody should try to use fast (and cheap) local LLMs to resolve conflicts. So you have a stateless CRDT, and when conflict updates reach the server, you ask the LLM how to merge them. You mark th

Good observation! Always useful to see things from a different angle, that was indeed what I was trying to say in the original post (even if it was wrong).

The Flipper Zero is not certainly the problem here, and it is not a proper SDR tool as said. But I believe it's technically interesting that the Flipper Zero uses the CC1101 inside the Flipper in a more powerful way. The chip can be co

WARNING: This is wrong! 3^2 = 9, so we can't encode it in 8 different symbols, but left here for history. The 15 bit encoding could be visualized in a different way, too, that is using 3 bits to represent two successive cells state:
