But, like pancakes, usually the stack is described as building bottom-up. Can you relate the individual components to ingredients in a diner-style pancake breakfast?

It's strange to me they didn't reduce to PoC so the quantitative part is an apples-to-apples comparison. You don't need any fancy tooling, if you want to do this at home you can do something like below in whatever command lin

Given the large visible differences in behavior and construction, akin to the difference between a horse and a pickup truck, I would ask the reverse question: In what ways do LLMs meet the definition of having consciousness and agency? Veer

Structurally a transformer model is so unrelated to the shape of the brain there's no reason to think they'd have many similarities. It's also pretty well established that the brain doesn't do anything resembling wholesa

The errors are also not distributed in the same way as you'd expect from a human. The tools can synthesize a whole feature in a moderately complicated web app including UI code, schema changes, etc, and it comes out perfectly. Then I a

For the raw footage of something with as much contrast as the moon against a backdrop of space it would make sense to use a format like ProRes that preserves more dynamic range.

That would violate a non-compete attached to the sale.

Why would it affect selling a business?

There's also a big difference between starting a competing business like your example, and being barred from say working on "cloud infrastructure" because your previous employer also worked on "cloud infrastructure"

The situation in networking is a lot different than graphics. I don't know much other than that it depends on what specific protocol, card, firmware, and network topology you're using and there's not really generic advice. If

Depending what you're doing AMD's support for VirtIO Native Context might be a useful alternative (I think it gives less isolation which could be good or bad depending on use).

Provisioning, remote management, containers, virtualization, networking, graphics (and compute), storage, all very different on Mac. The real question is what you would expect to be the same.

Being able to keep infrastructure on Linux is a big advantage.

Recent kernels have SR-IOV support for these chips too. B&H has them listed for $950. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1959142-REG/intel_33p... When 32GB NVIDIA cards seem to start at around $4000 t

It's not just about fitting prompts to models, it's things like how web search works, how structured outputs are handled, various knobs like level of reasoning effort, etc. I don't think the DSPy approach is bad but it doesn&

In my experience the behavior variation between models and providers is different enough that the "one-line swap" idea is only true for the simplest cases. I agree the prompt lifecycle is the same as code though. The compromise I&

In practice for some applications, for my purposes X11 forwarding never really worked (due to GLX and bandwidth among other issues). So that's 50/50 anecdote. I just checked and it appears Wayland adoption has helped push apps to

Having a medium understanding of graphics hardware and software stack, and being an everyday desktop Linux user recently, it's hard to square these kinds of complaints with the actual technical situation. Like, people say X11 is networ

Having done some mobile development where app sandboxes have been prevalent for years, it's annoying to deal with but necessary. Given the bad behavior some devs attempt, often ad SDKs trying to perma-cookie users, stealing clipboards,

If you just want something to use: install one of the most mainstream distros like Ubuntu or Fedora, accept the defaults, and move on with your life. There are compromises in all of the options, even my Mac has a handful of irritating probl
