You're not the only one, I'm running Qwen3.8-27B in LM Studio and it seems to be going great. Was very easy to set up.

If you are sure about the final shape of your output it's a great use case for AI, as you can define what you want in your prompt and refine towards it! It's where you don't know the end state you're looking for that you

My M5 Max has 3 modes, "low", "automatic", and "high". Automatic doesn't seem to simply switch between low and high -- it seems to sit in the middle and vary dynamically based on workload and temperature.

Yes, a true overabundance would bring salaries trending down (theoretically all the way down to minimum wage) until the overabundance is fixed by making people choose other careers.

Pushing pixels around the screen is how I used to describe my day job. These days I describe it as "I talk to Claude about every 15 minutes".

A lot of people believe that this reality, in which we're conversing on HN, is also a simulation (thus making the fruit fly a simulation within a simulation).

Hospitals shouldn't have to negotiate with insurers. It should be illegal for an insurer to not pay for a necessary procedure at the hospital's standard rate.

The fact that it's already common doesn't mean it shouldn't be illegal. And I'm talking more specifically about a single entity selling to multiple customers. If two different retailers want to charge two different price

The Democrats are not controlled opposition; they do not secretly want the MAGA agenda and only pretend to oppose it. They simply don't have any power to stop it and are really bad at getting power to stop it. "Never attribute to

The "problem" of hallucination has not been solved, and never will be fully solved, because that's just how LLMs work. They're "hallucinating" 100% of the time but we only call it a hallucination when they'

You can't really fully trust humans either. That's why we have processes and checklists; code review; testing at various levels; etc. With those processes in place maybe we can trust AIs too.

Based on that logic, layoffs should sometimes cause the stock of a company to go down, if the shareholders think those employees contributed more value than the company saves by laying them off. In reality layoffs almost always cause the st

By "not associated with Meta" meant, as far as I know, the authors don't work at Meta -- not that llama.cpp is unrelated to Meta's llama model.

It's from https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp -- not associated with Meta, it's been around for years, and surely they know about it -- so I would guess either it's not a trademark violation or they do

From Wikipedia: "Waste-to-energy plants cause less air pollution than coal plants, but more than natural gas plants." That sounds, uh, pretty good considering the input is garbage! GIGO doesn't apply when it comes to power ge

I don't really get how that works in terms of being tax-deductible. So I looked it up, and lo and behold: > Contributions to Collectives hosted by OSC are not deductible as charitable contributions for U.S. federal income tax purpos

A lot of non-atheists are also vocally opposed to, say, teaching evolution in schools. It's easy to see how someone might think atheists typically believe in something that does contradict evolution.

There are plenty of 2010 Toyotas still out there, running great, if you want one. The market has instead demanded more different-looking cars (for variety), and generally larger vehicles with a higher riding position, not to mention newer c
