So, bonds basically all tend to converge on the same risk adjusted yield. If you're seeing yields that look like this, the market believes the currency will slip or there's repayment risk (relative to USD bonds that are in the 4.7

So, interestingly, the places that actually did the worst in the Holocaust were generally the places where there were the least legal structures--even though you would expect it to be worst for Jews in Germany, it was often Poland and other

I think it's worth saying that I basically completely disagree with your assessment (how you read the evidence, your conclusions, and quite possibly your worldview,) and think that if you were to give me access to infinite throughput c

FWIW, I've found a T-1000e to be a pretty good way to get people into meshtastic. It's not perfect because it has a weird dongle to charge, but it's pretty cool and I think you can convince people it's a worthwhile thing

I think that's totally fair if you're primarily working in rural/not dense communities. If you're in a major city, in practice it just doesn't matter and ease of use is king. In a disaster, everyone with a meshtasti

* I would consider adding a T-1000 device to the recommended list of devices, it's about the size of a credit card and works very well to add Meshtastic to phones. https://www.seeedstudio.com/SenseCAP-Card-Tracker-T1000

Qwen3 and some of the smaller gemma's are pretty good and fast. I have a gist with my benchmark #'s here on my m4 pro max (with a whole ton of ram, but most small models will fit on a well spec'ed dev mac.) https:/&#x2F

I don't think this is all that well documented anywhere. I've had this problem too and I don't think anyone has tried to record something like a decent benchmark of token inference/speed for a few different models. I&#x2

Part of the reason I bought a new macbook with a decent amount of ram was that I wanted to make sure I could have a couple of local LLMs available locally just in case for some reason the frontierlabs/other models eventually became res

This "you have to choose D" ahead of time nonsense is why people distrust and dislike statisticians! Humans have priors on what is "close" that are independent of this particular article. If they had said "See, ever

I couldn't find in the documentation anything that describes the relative number of tokens that you get for low/medium/high. I'm curious if anyone can find that, I'd be curious to see how it plays out relative to De

I think it's just another way of accessing anything that doesn't have a traditional API. Most humans interact with things through the world with a web browser, with a keyboard and a mouse, and so even places that don't have a

I think one of the things I'm most excited for is that this really opens up, for practical purposes, a lot of websites that made it difficult to do things via API. For example, while I frequently end up booking AirBnB's, I find th

I like how this article demystifies TypeScript enums—especially around numeric vs. string values and all the weird runtime quirks. Personally, I mostly steer clear of numeric enums because of that dual key/value mapping, which can be a

Session’s decision to remove forward secrecy is another big eyebrow-raiser. Signal is widely praised for its double ratchet precisely because it limits the damage if a key is compromised. Session’s lack of PFS means that if your private key
