I spend a lot of time on calls of different sorts and I've found that I really prefer voice only and I think it allows for slightly higher quality discussion. Informal video where everyone is free to drift in and out of frame works rea

I'm sure the people doing devrel over there do their best but have to work under a communications policy that prohibits discussing things like negotiable royalties specifically to avoid situations like the current litigation.

That assumes Google would bother picking up the phone to say anything at all.

Potentially around 5Kbps in good conditions. I think it makes applications like e-mail over HF a lot more workable.

It looks like this is Rust for the application wrapped around a WASM port of llama.cpp that in turn uses an implementation of WASI-NN for the actual NN compute. It would be interesting to see how this compares to the TFLite, the new stuff i

Client authors try but there are still IMAP protocol design choices that cause issues with sync reliability, bandwidth usage, lack of push, etc. You can read the JMAP design rationale for details, they cover it all pretty well. Security iss

It's because IMAP is not very good for disconnected or mobile operation, and if you're willing to put a server between the on-device client and the IMAP server you can do much better at the cost of sharing credentials and content

How? You need a legal entity that manages the property and all the governance, financial, and operational issues that go with that.

You can do it if you can build a clear narrative of why applied research in some area now will build you a uniquely strong position to monetize later. It's not a "funding a research based company" so much as "buying an o

Sort of, the time restricted eating the article is about would require something different, like a pill that stops your body from absorbing some nutrients for 12 hours or something like that.

Additionally, any result suggesting a new approach has profit potential. If fasting was effective then a pill giving the same benefits would have a big market.

It works well for the three kinds of rice we make and has the benefit of being faster with even easier clean up. No doubt a high end rice cooker could do a slightly better job on most kinds of rice (not the sticky rice).

You can watch your blood oxygen dip when flying, I don't know how significant the effect is on performance but as a sea level dweller there seems to be some observable difference in the data.

With the rise of networking and multimedia this was also an incredibly chaotic time and I suspect some of the problems with the big OS rewrites stem from that. Microsoft did a better job getting something useful shipped. I don't know i

The curing process is exothermic so it's possible the insulated forms keep enough of that heat in to make the process work even in the cold.

Feature, not bug. There is a steady stream of features that build on the newer hardware, for example local dictation support starts with A12 devices. The big question is not whether a five year old phone supports the most current software (

That roughly matches my experience trying to use Swift outside Mac and iOS development. I really like the language but the tooling and library ecosystem just aren't there. Go or Rust are not as nice to write in different ways but much

Two reasons: First, it's a lot of wiring which makes everything more expensive, complicated, power hungry, etc. Mobile SoCs (and Apple's chips) sidestep this issue by packaging the memory with the CPU so distances are short and th

Two thoughts: 1) Look for distribution through integrations with services like Salesforce, Zapier, no-code dev tools, 2) look for ways to increase value and pricing to support outbound sales. Your current pricing looks too low to economical

We didn't use ROCm, the non-ROCm OpenCL path worked fine for us on Polaris and Vega. None of this is a major reason AMD cards are vastly inferior for ML dev and research purposes. At the time they made a decision not to invest heavily

That's not necessary or sufficient. Going back to 2017 or so when I was working in the area their OpenCL support was good enough, the missing parts were an equivalent to cuDNN and upstreamed support in TensorFlow etc. That work does no

Historically they believed that "the community" would address broader ML software support. I think the idea was they could assign dedicated engineers for bigger customers and together that was a sort of Pareto-goodish solution giv

As I understand it they have been losing money for years at ever-increasing rates so it's not like what they were doing before was working. Maybe they are doing the wrong thing now but business as usual probably had no future.

I'm not sure where this idea that vaccines 100% prevent disease (or infection) came from. The main reason previous vaccination programs like measles have worked so well is they allowed near eradication so most people never even get exp
