Would be nice if you could filter based on the number of pieces or layers of the golf ball manufacturing process. Might require some leg work to actually find out, but many manufacturers will list it on their product info.

Sure but if we find another few “easy” 5% improvements in find/replace/edit (which is one of the most important actions for coding) then they really start to add up. Most harnesses already have rather thorough solutions for this p

You don't need to understand how the model works internally to make an agentic coding tool. You just need to understand how the APIs work to interface with the model and then comprehend how the model behaves given different prompts so

GLM-5 at FP8 should be similar in hardware demands to Kimi-K2.5 (natively INT4) I think. API pricing on launch day may or may not really indicate longer term cost trends. Even Kimi-K2.5 is very new. Give it a whirl and a couple weeks to

Yes and no. There are many not-trivial things you have to solve when using an LLM to help (or fully handle writing) code. For example, applying diffs to files. Since the LLM uses tokenization for all its text input/output, sometimes

Most well pumps are electric powered. The holding tank will give you a very small amount of water that’s in it if it’s up high but after that without electricity it won’t refill. In the USA most residential toilets are tank type and don’t d

The key seems to be that you take the transcript of a model working within a problem domain that it’s not yet good at or where the context doesn’t match it’s original training and then you continually retrain it based on its efforts and gui

Just print the code to do what ever is disallowed on a t-shirt, ala DVDCSS. Is that not a legitimate way around things like this?

A FIM or completion model like this won't have a large prompt and caching doesn't work anyways (per their notes). It'll get maybe a few thousand tokens in a prompt, maximum. For a 1.5B model, you should expect usable CPU-on

I'd love to be able to take an open model like this and feed it the codebases that I work on regularly in order to improve its performance for less "hip/modern" languages and frameworks. It would be awesome to see a blo

I don't trust an LLM to write software for me without human verification, but it's not like it's that hard to verify what it writes if you understand how to write code yourself. I expect even when an LLM can layout a high vo

If you know what you're doing with electronics design, I've found that leveraging an LLM to help come up with ideas, layout block diagrams, and find parts can be super useful. Integrating Digi-Key or Mouser API support for findin

Some solar inverter systems already have a data connection to get live pricing information from the grid operator. It’s not that big of a problem to implement, although it definitely isn’t pervasive yet. Minute by minute pricing is not craz

My experience has been that SELV (safety extra low voltage, less than 60V peak and less than 240VA) is considered safe and anything exceeding that needs certain levels of protection. But bus bars generally should be protected regardless of

With a higher voltage you can reduce your copper needs by a substantial amount. Seems if copper cost was a concern this would be what these data centers would do.

It would also depend on the purchase cost and cooling infrastructure cost. If this costs what a 3x H100 box costs then it’s a fair comparison even if not a direct comparison to what customers currently buy.

Having only 48GB of RAM per card seems low. The full server system with 8 cards barely has enough RAM to run modern large open models. And batching together user requests eats quite a lot of memory, too. Curious to see how these machines a
