I didn't know this was a thing until I read this thread but I can confirm that it does fine(not perfect by any means just like the average casual non-native fluent speaker) and it is one of the reasons I use it as my local model.

llama.cpp being the best choice doesn't make it popular. When I got started, I was led to ollama and other local-llm freemium. I didn't necessarily assume that they weren't c++(I don't even know) but I do think that –as

Windows does allow you to enter Chinese characters when you say your language is Chinese. I have moved to Bazzite at home but it is ridiculous that you can't just use your language right away. A normal person would just bail out. If yo

Firmware upgrades don't need to use the same protocols. Without secure boot any applet can take a security hole escalate and persist until you take a trip to a zone of interest. With secure-boot+attestation, the vendors can choose not

Didn't Dumbo get drunk in the eponymous movie? You don't get more pop than that.

To play devil's advocate, I don't think most people would be fine with their car ramming into a military base after an unfriendly firmware update. However, I agree that the risks to individuals and their freedoms stemming from the

At some point, most memories are like that, to be honest – not just early childhood ones. You could say I consider these are "vivid" because I can recall more details of them than of the average memory.

The memories are probably nothing like how they were at the time, but I vividly remember running away from my parents with my elder sister, getting bullied by an extremely blond girl at day care, and falling and literally eating dirt includ

What is going on here? Is one of the implementations wrong(as in not following the IEEE-specified result)? Both? I mean, ideally, floating point algorithms would have ranges they tolerate but if they are going to expect bit-perfect results,

Was wondering how StockOverflow guy was doing these days and it turns out he sold the company for $2B in 2021. What's the saying? Time in the market vs timing the market. Good for him but imagine being one of the investors.

I would never buy a Mac, but what's the issue with supporting Mx processors? Are they a generic ARM platform or something highly proprietary with ISA extensions and the like? And if Apple is pulling a Nintendo here why is this project

Europe always overcharging and underdelivering. I am forever thankful for the Socialism that allowed me to get a degree for $3k, though. The downside is of course over-enrollment but at least the bartenders didn't come out $50k into de

Could possibly be applied to enhance performance in sports. You always hear about how something is an extension of the body to the best athletes.

I am saying the opposite. Sure, they all had moms and dads and to their families they were likely important and missed but there is a World of difference to the people left behind between some activist no one knows getting murdered by the s

It's not even in the same ballpark. 0.03% of Iranians vs 3% of Gazans. I think we can all agree that Iran shouldn't be massacring its own nationals even if as the government claims they are foreign-influenced, but don't use t

I'm saddened that there aren't more replies to this. Bloom filters are the coolest thing ever and I wish I could replace them with something better.

I couldn't tell a thing about the naqqadah resistor positron-brain whattamajig on the right answer but the wrong answer looked too neat for something actual people would design.

I must admit I do not know what you are referencing here, sir, but it is always a pleasure to run into your comments on HN. So much positive compiler-dad energy.

Maybe change the name to Wins? Wine is not a Sandbox but come on. Everyone has been using it as if it was. Even Bottles was only a prefix -manager until a couple months ago. I think it should be and also disallow Linux syscalls and Z: dr

The average user expectation is probably not that any random exe they download from the piratehub or whatever can actually run Linux shellcode on their system. I think all syscalls should be landlocked by default(It might require a novel ke

Stock buy-backs can be part of an illegal scheme but, in general, they are one of the few mechanisms in corporate actions through which the regular joe shareholder doesn't get the short end of the stick. How is owning a larger share of
