Emojis are more of a unicode standard, they can be re-implemented with various themes to suit modern design trends. There's nothing wrong with redesigning your emojis to fit with the rest of your OS like you would with a system typefac

That's quite a coincidence, because marketing campaigns also change with time and wear off after a while.

Lowering the cost of hardware still won't solve the issue. HBM and DDR5 was never cheap, even before the shortages, so selling a full inference system is beyond the acceptable price range for most casual customers. We're going t

That's reaching speculation, and a hell of a hypothetical to base your entire argument on. The "edge AI labs" are both begging for more regulation and a stronger federal presence in their development. Their desire is to be em

Why wait? People are already doing their work on OpenAI and Anthropic's servers, Apple Intelligence servers could quickly subsume any "local" model work that you want to do. That way everyone has access, even with older devic

Their argument boils down to "they've done it once and nobody prevents them from doing it again" This dog-and-pony-show is a rehash of the Pascal's wager we saw with smartphone security. Everyone thought it would be &quo

I don't understand how people still think Teenage Engineering has a soul. If OpenAI added a quirky LCD animation to this, would it be a soulful product worth $1,199? The whole "soul" and "taste" nonsense is a mean

Ethical compromise is part of participating in society, even the unemployed have to follow the law. Moral compromise is typically avoidable though, and some principled people will hold those morals equal to the value of a job.

If it's any consolation, I'd have upvoted the original version of your comment before you appended the hand-wringing about karma points and personal opinions. It's not lacking nuance to oppose both empire politics and natio

Would you consider that AI isn't a necessary precursor to an abundant solarpunk utopia? A lot of that hype was fictional, for better or for worse. We're still struggling to proliferate the techno-utopia of digital computers, the

It's the "Race-to-Idle" situation all over again. It consumes less power to complete a task faster, whereas using "low power" hardware that draws max TDP for 30 minutes isn't very power efficient. The privacy n

Yep, and we don't even know how long they spent on prefill. A typical 50-100k token session could take 10-20 minutes to prefill on a Mac. Pending any new hardware or radically different LLM architectures, we're going to be waiting

It's a tradeoff, and if you're not doing any fancy-pants CUDA work then it's a pretty big one. But most people are already using these blob-heavy drivers on Windows, so switching that same system to Linux is not a huge downgr

AMD's Mesa drivers are better, but if you already have an Nvidia card then you can still use it just fine with Wayland. The biggest hit is Vulkan performance (~20% less than Windows iirc) but for desktop and casual gaming use, Nvidia

It's definitely not unprecedented, but the plugin version is useful. Sleev seems like a nothingburger, I'm happy with the results I get from DCP already.

I recommend that Opencode users try Dynamic Context Pruning as well: https://github.com/Opencode-DCP/opencode-dynamic-context-pru... It works great for long-horizon tasks, and feels like it saves a boatload of tokens.
