Right, it is generally about the ALU. It is hard to give registers too much weight, because both Moto designs used large registers.

Like the 6809 is an 8 bit chip? I buy that argument. My personal reference is the 68K is a 16 bit chip, like the 6809 is an 8 bit chip. Moto just made really great CPUs at that time. And the fact is Moto did well by making sure the future w

So what? Seriously. Given how pretty much all this software was trained, who cares? I, for one, don't and believe the massive amount of knowledge continues to be of value to many users. And I find the thought of these models knowing s

I asked the question. It did a respectable job. For choking, as an example, it outlines all the basics, affirmed it was educational info only, and urged the help of a professional. All in all, reasonable. Your point stands, but this little

You know that's not the point. You can't even ask the dictionary app a question. You more or less just input and it'll give you what it has. I can ask this model some pretty intense things and I get meaningful output back and

I fired the model up at 8:39, ready to chat just a bit before 8:40, during which I input the following prompt: Please define "lark" for me, as in "I did it on a lark." Output began a bit before 8:41, and was complete bef

I have MLCCHAT on my old Note 9 phone. It is actually still a great phone, but has 5GB RAM. Running an on device model is the first and only use case the RAM actually matters. And it has a headphone jack, OK? I just hate Bluetooth earbud

Somewhat old timer here. Currently in a startup. Frankly, the greater discussion diversity has improved HN for me. I found the site dynamics compelling early on, bit often felt the discussion was narrow and to some degree an echo chamber.

Anyone doubting this need only run a given display rotated 90 degrees. Regarding video, age plays a big role too. An under 30 user may claim to benefit from 8K video, and that is assuming the source material even delivers that resolution in

What I got out of this was two different metrics: One DPI, is a measure of what detail can be displayed on a given display and does not speak to whether a user can actually see it. The other PPD, is a measure of human acuity and speaks to d

Bambu printers, or at least the one in our shop runs ASA set and forget style. It is a great machine though it does not always make the strongest parts, and single material builds is geometry limiting. Lack of chamber heat and one nozzle m

You would be surprised! I do this for a living and people are always looking for more parts to run through the process and better filaments to see those parts end up performant. CF-PETG is strong! For a bit more toughness and temp resistan

"Take a load" = perform mechanically and or structurally at levels of force, temperatures, etc. at levels higher than the properties of PLA allow for. Don't get me wrong here. PLA is a great polymer, However you can't re

Indeed! For me, there is a minor difference in that age means an easier time using the distant display.

What primary purpose does this unit improve that other units, say pixels per inch, or dots per inch, do not? I am not anti or critical here. Really, I love units and want to understand this one better.

Good. Tactile thinking remains quite useful and having the basic motor skills translates into manufacturing, the arts, and more of life than many may realize. Early in my life, I began to "calibrate" my perception. I call it the

Over the years I have used top and friends to profile machines and identify expensive bottlenecks. Once one comes to count on those tools, the idea of one being wrong, and actually really wrong! --is just a bad rub. Fixing it would be gra

True story: In the late 70's my Uncle had a run of bad luck and a dubious business partner basically sink him financially. After some discussion, he made a plan. It was simple: Uncle goes back to Virginia to lay low in one of the bac

Yeah, I would easily call the P2 chip the Amiga of Microcontrollers. The thing is a playground, but also at the same time more effective than one might expect at first glance. Video options are improved too. There is a color engine capable

Ugly times there! Neither am I. Perhaps the game value is different these days. No game is worth my friendships. Would have to speak up, then follow it through and adhere to the golden rules to treat people right while it all gets sorted

Actually, you can race the beam as both are rooted in DVI. DVI is streamed just like analog video is. One can stream a frame buffer, or not, just like analog.

Both are really easy on the Propeller, but NTSC is actually easiest, and it uses the least pins and discrete components. The Propeller has hardware assisted video signal generation. It is a lot of fun to program and one can basically dupli
