The goal should be to not repeat Star Wars - new technology that gives power and advantages is always adopted by companies first, then governments, and then it’s used to subjugate people. In Star Wars you have the trade federation abusing l

Have you tried llama.cpp with unsloth and models suited to it? GLM flash? It seemed to allow more models to be tried soon after they are released. Haven’t tried for long term deployment though, that’s the next step.

Here is where we’ve found those rooms: 1. In scouts gatherings at churches or campgrounds (zero religious connotation - just use of unused space during the week). 2. In play dates with other families. 3. In sports clubs that have regular pr

You’ve described a corporation. Think of YC companies - equity owned by early employees. Controlled by “someone senior”. And if things are going good more friends are invited to join in, multiple companies start owning equity within each ot

Visited a recycling facility recently. It’s a private company that covers an entire county in California. They filter the garbage wit people and a big machine and seem to get paid by companies abroad to ship them all recyclable materials -

If apple provides native support with enough bandwidth to run an external NVIDIA GPU for Inference and training, I will upgrade to the latest MBP instantly. Raise your hand if you would too.

Nevada makes it much harder to sue corporate officers when they do malfeasance. Wyoming has tons of privacy perks for the officers (similar to cayman island accounts). “Perks” though also convert into signaling for the intent of the founder

There is no insinuation. I am looking for both private and quality inference. I am not sure why Tinfoil had the characters. I will keep trying them, but it’s an issue if not resolved.

Tried DeepSeek V4 Pro and Flash on Open Router and they worked fine - flash might have actually produced a better result, but also the same prompt across different inference providers produced the same result. Then tried DS4 Pro again via t

My push for trying local was the wildly unpredictable but systematic performance of large models like Opus and ChatGPT. It feels like at different times of day or week they are getting degraded beyond belief. I don’t know if it is deliberat

Children learn by playing because not much is expected of the outcome in play. Improvement happens when you can play. When AI has a play environment to learn with reinforcement. When entrepreneurs are allowed to try and fail and do better.

Go to Open Router, ask your own in investigative prompt that meets your needs to all the top open models. See how they do. Then notice if you can run any of those locally. Repeat at least once a month.

Claude has become practically unusable for Pro users in the past few days. The Opus 4.7 blew through an entire 5 hour limit in one question and didn’t even finish answering it. Zero value delivered. Opus 4.6 is giving 2, maybe 3 questions b

The fun fact was that the 16 year old that passionately administered the lab was also hitting on any female students who went in there, essentially chasing them away. I suspect the number of techies would double if it wasn’t for all the bad

I wrote from personal experience. In 1992 in a fisherman town we had a robotic arm and Pravetz 8 and 16 computers with the 5 inch floppy disks. We had to use Basic to program the arm and it was only doing basic movements. The teacher had a

If you grow up in that environment (restricted by government in some areas and liberated in others) you’ll start seeing systems very differently. The game plays differently with different rules. They had Pravets computers and robotic arms i

Per the book “Careless People” Meta started “backing” right wing candidates everywhere (via algorithms, not money) to avoid regulation and taxes as soon as the EU tried to tax and regulate it more - thus leading to a surge of that sentiment

“The long-term vision is: foundation models that acquire reasoning from fully synthetic data, then learn semantics from a small, curated corpus of natural language. This would help us build models that reason without inheriting human biases
