The core argument they are making is one of resources, I can find myself seeing their point. Another abuse of the service would be to convert videos into ASCII text and check them into git, for example. The issue with the crypto argument is

Just ordered myself the LilyGo T5 E-Paper S3 Pro [1]. The other good options on the hardware tab are sold out [2]. I quite like the idea of having GPS capability, and maybe I can experiment with LoRa gateways. I originally missed out on the

I was thinking also about some kind of coil. Being a ring it should be possible to induce a current, with the chassis as a ground.

Not sure that would work. Charging is not 100% efficient, and if I remember correctly most batteries need to reach a minimum current to start actual charging. When you're talking micro or pico amps, it barely registers as a signal in m

I think the "dock" itself could be USB C easily, it would probably also significantly reduce the cost of the dock. > Adding the port, the USB-C PD circuitry may take up too much room. You don't need PD circuitry for this.

I think this was somewhat predictable. The USB cable from the hub is too long, and it's not thick enough. USB3 can also kick off a decent amount of heat, it's not a good sign when the case is in plastic. If you're looking for

I've been messing with the magic value weights, and it doesn't take too much to push them in any given direction. The TEAMS_2026 should really be taken with a pinch of salt.

I've done a decent amount of traveling - honestly the most important thing has always just been to have stuff that works. Charging things has rarely been an issue. A few extra cables in the luggage is not a big deal. Terrence's is

The only metric that really matters is 'profit per amount invested'. This is very difficult to quickly evaluate, and therefore we resolve to use simplified metrics such as cost per unit tokens. The point at which the metrics becom

Thank you for sharing. 1.5TB of streamed data at 12 seconds per token on a high end consumer laptop is a pretty high requirement - I can only imagine how much that cost to train. I don't know how running this model could be cost effect
