Mac Studio has up to 196 GB of memory.

I wonder if Lockdown Mode would help?

Not sure what you mean, but are you saying you don't ask it anything related to work at all?

Memory requirement for the 7B model with full context is 120GB, so you would need 5 3090 GPUs, not 2-4. Do you know if you can get a motherboard with space for 5 GPUs and a power supply to match? I bet that 5 3090s will smoke a Mac Studio.

Not sure what you mean. Cutting edge computing has never been cheap. And a Mac Studio is definitely within the budget of a software developer in Norway. Not going to feel like a cheap investment, but definitely something that would be doabl

More than other models? I thought that context used a lot of memory on all models. And I’d hardly call it obscene. You can buy a Mac Studio with 192GB of memory, that should allow you to max out the context window of the 7B model. Probably

O1 doesn’t seem to need any particularly specific prompts. It seems to work just fine on just about anything I give it. It’s still not fantastic, but often times it comes up with things I either would have had to spend a lot of time to get

If you run one of the distill versions in something like LM Studio it’s very easy to edit. But the replies from those models isn’t half as good as the full R1, but still remarkably better then anything I’ve run locally before.

I ran the llama distill on my laptop and I edited both the thoughts and the reply. I used the fairly common approach of giving it a task, repeating the task 3 times with different input and adjusting the thoughts and reply for each repetiti

I tried two questions that I had recently asked o1 pro mode. The first was about setting up a GitHub action to build a Hugo website. I provided it with the config code, and asked it about setting the directory to build from. It messed this

If I know someone on Signal I can now check if they’ve left the country. Or send this to a bunch of signal users whom you suspect one of them being a particular person, and if you know that the person you are looking for is going to travel

If I can send you a link and be guaranteed that you click on it. Then that’s definitely a security issue.

That gut feeling approach is very human like. You have a bias and even when the facts say that you are wrong you think that there must be a mistake, because your original bias is so strong. Maybe we need a dozen LLMs with different biases.

Well, it’s not like anyone sued a Dutch university for finding security vulnerabilities in their NFC transport card solution…NXP would never rush their implementation to market and then try to sue their way out of any vulnerabilities. http

They specifically write that this only supports UID based authentication. So, the card answers with the same unique ID every time. UniFi has support for this, but seemingly not by default. This solution also doesn’t allow you to clone an ex

Regular voting is usually what affects things such as the transportation infrastructure in your country or city. It’s a slow proceed though. Here in Oslo there has been a lot of investment in bike lanes, but just because one part of the loc

It's not properly grounded. I think I need to change out the power cable for one with ground, since the power cable that comes with the stereo only has two wires. There is a grounding point on the back of the chassis, but I don't

I have a 40-year old amp and speakers at home. My dad’s old stereo. Works fine, but it has so much static buzz. Sounds great though. I’m just a bit hesitant to leave it powered on all the time which means I don’t use it much compared to my

I assumed it was part of the migration plan to Apple silicon. Rosetta 2 makes x86 apps work on Apple silicon, but I had assumed that Apple could only really get 64-bit x86 apps working smoothly and that’s why they removed 32-bit support a f

Norway works on a precedent system. When electric scooters were reclassified as «small electric vehicles» they suddenly came under the same drunk drive laws as motorbikes and cars. So the lower courts ruled a bunch of drunk driving of elect

I assume that the model couldn’t run locally for some reason. Probably either uses too much power or needs too much memory.

I agree that this isn’t necessary and that Apple should have asked for consent from the user. I do want to point out that Apple doesn’t get to see your photo. Homomorphic encryption is really cool in that way. Apple isn’t able to decrypt th

Your ISP, a bunch of routers and switches and the servers run by Signal can also see your encrypted photo. You don’t really get to decide who sees the encrypted photo. You do get to decide which photo you encrypt and send though.

Isn’t that running locally on your Mac though?

The blog post outlines how Apple goes about disconnecting metadata, so at best they would know that someone took a photo at a rough point in time.
