I'm almost there, but the mobile operating systems (compatible with the phones i have) are a snag at the moment.

When I'm on my bike, it's difficult. I will ride no handed and change a track, but it's more dangerous than it needs to be. I might switch back to my iOS device, but what I'd really like to do is replace the Andriod OS

My Android phone comes hobbled unless I give it all my data to be used for training data (or whatever). I just asked, "Ok Google, play youtube music." And it responded with, "I cannot play music, including YouTube Music, as

Chatgpt is a proprietary eponym[1], like kleenex, or Google for search. That's a relatively strong attractor based on their first mover status. I nevertheless use tissues, and search engines like brave search, sometimes duckduckgo, an

There's always another asking, "Are you down?" It's a bit of a bop. https://youtu.be/DpMfP6qUSBo

Yes, all else equal, we want lighter motors in vehicles. I'm always interested to hear about the latest in lighter and possibly more powerful and torque-y e-bike motors.

For radios, the general idea of building radios to a spec and having them certified to be sold in country works pretty well most of the time. It might be nice to have a phone with plenty of flexibility on the radio, but I think most folks

I booted Slackware from a pile of floppies back then. I thought the Germans had a pretty good offering with SuSE at the time. Look I get it, even back then, most folks felt Windows was the obvious choice (and still do) for their jobs and s

Back in '99 Linux didn't run Excel/Word/Powerpoint or most games, but I ran it anyway. What others call showstoppers are for me inconveniences. I have a motorolla edge 2024 that I'll load whatever open source phone

> it's worth investing a lot of resources in sandboxing. I tend to agree. There’s an opportunity to make it easy to have Claude be able to test out workflows/software within Debian, RPM, Windows, etc… container and VM sandboxe

At least we can be assured our capitalistic system will distribute the wealth to those who most deserve it.

To be fair, it isn't $1000-2000 extra, it's the new laptop/pc you just bought that is powerful enough (now, or in the near future) to run these open weight models.

That's great to hear. I was mostly impressed with Qwen3 coder on my 4090, but am hobbled by the small memory footprint of the single card. What motherboard are you using with your 3090s? Like the others, I too am curious about those

Interesting, the pacing seemed very slow when conversing in english, but when I spoke to it in spanish, it sounded much faster. It's really impressive that these models are going to be able to do real time translation and much more. T

So we're celebrating the real numbers, but maybe we should hoist up the illusory numbers? Back in the day, they thought that some numbers were "imaginary" numbers (e.g. sqrt(-1)) and nowadays, engineers use those imaginary n

That's interesting! I'm supposing you've been really afraid before, and you'll know it's quite an agitated state to be in. So normally, without fear, folks will be more at peace, more at ease. As far as sociopaths

Have you considered who you would be without your fear? What if you had nothing to fear and nothing to doubt?

Here's a few general observations. Your LLM (CC) doesn't have your whole codebase in context, so it can run off and make changes without considering that some remote area of the codebase are (subtly?) depending on the part that cl

Who makes the markets in India? Is it the big Indian banks, or do these multinational trading firms act as market makers? If so, how do they distinguish between their trading and market making activities? It seems like it'd be relat

What does SpaceX have to do with the Musk/Trump spat? Shouldn't those SpaceX contracts be based on how well the country is served by them and at what price. Trump needs to take his lumps on his BBB. That bill is full of pork for

Too little inequality means there is nothing to strive for, the ambitious won’t have much reward to work for. Too much inequality means too few participants in the economic decision making process which leads to instability (i.e. the mad ki

They could use a common XT90 or something similar. You find high amperage connectors on all the RC lipo batteries and they are cheap enough, you find them on $100 products (batteries). I regularly work with 100amp+ at 12v. It’s obvious th

I'll take a crack: Today's WiFi, that you all know and love, started out on unlicensed RF (radio frequency) bands. We need to continue to expand the ability to talk on RF to allow innovation, like what happened with WiFi.

LM Studio puts stats at the bottom of each reply like: 2.09 tok/sec, 346 tokens, 1.74s to first token. This was for a 259 word response, so ~ 0.75 words/token. If that ratio holds, you might be getting 8 tok/sec on you M4 M

I prefer larger quantization and longer response times, but only have so much memory and am only willing to wait so long. I can work with 2 toks/s and this kind of accuracy for these kinds of queries. I expect you'll need to pla

I'm getting 2.12 tok/s[1] on a 24GB (4090) GPU and 64GB (7950x) CPU memory, splitting the model across the GPU and CPU (40/80 layers on GPU) with lm-studio. Output looks good so far, I can use something like this for a query
