   Interestingly this brings down model 3 prices back down to 2019 levels. This is not going to help the battered down stock ( https://markets.sh/symbols/NASDAQ:TSLA )

   GPT-3 API is also getting flaky. I guess Microsoft datacenters are getting steamrolled by the ChatGPT traffic.

   Zustand is great: https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand It gets out of the way in terms of boilerplate, has a good solution for avoiding unnecessary re-renders, has tooling for deep state updates without messy syntax (imme

    Raw performance is not there yet but the "Max" gpus seem to be quite powerful and on par with Nvidia (on paper). Blender and also gaming (via Proton) works quite well under Linux too already which is great considering the drivers

    Yes I mean everything beta and such. But fully open source and what I saw from oneAPI they are doing all the right things recently. Let's hope that Gelsinger is to Intel what Nadella is to Microsoft.

    Running an ARC 770 Gpu on my linux workstation. After Nvidia messed up wayland support so badly, the switch is easy. Fully open source drivers. Everything is smooth as butter and event Pytorch, Blender etc are (experimentally) supported. Pr

    Please keep in mind that this is based on Ultralight wich is not open source and kind of abandoned. Been a commercial customer before, promised arm version never shipped. UL worked well but the lack of support/development means I will

    What are you talking about? E.g Anandtech and GamersNexus ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRaJXZMOMPU ) are hardly examples of being "overwhelmingly positive" towards anyone.
