I paid for 3 months. Kagi was okay, but it's not really a search engine like I use search engines. They only ever returned <200 results per search query. So you had to depend on their system to magically know what results you wanted

LLMs are not the non-human entities that ruined reddit. Corporations are. And it all started with the huge venture capital infusions in 2014/15 and the obligations those generated. And frankly, these LLM bots they're complaining a

You get what you ask for with LLMs. In this case though there were no children talking to the chatbots. It was all adults talking like adults but saying they were kids. This was in order to produce the result they wanted (something LLMs are

I guess you're right. Humans make mistakes so we should just not have any control where we might make a mistake at all and host all our personal data at large corporations who definitely have our privacy as the #1 priority and never le

Optane is still faster for random IO (latency, peak and average) than any pcie5 modern consumer SSD by quite a bit. Some enterprise SSD are about equal but come with equal cost and size constraints.

Quantization aware training just means having the model deal with quantized values a bit during training so it handles the quantization better when it is quantized after training/etc. It doesn't change the model size itself.

Is the latency in flash devices really from the charge trap physics itself? I thought it was more in all the overhead to make sure the bit(s) are actually what it seems like. Also, if there were a market for low latency storage surely Optan

You're right most of the time. But there are two webs. And it's only in the later (far more common) case that things like that matter. There is the web as it always has been on http/1.1 that is a hyperlinked set of html docum

Pretty formalized for being weird. But I think the most important thing for human beings continuing to have websites (and so weird websites) is to keep HTTP/1.1 and HTTP+HTTPS alive. Without those thing websites are just too fragile fo

This is the silver lining of being the country (and continent) that remembers doing the worst possible stuff 60-80 years ago. There is some resistance to doing it again.

Good. <h1> tag should be <h1> no matter where it is. It shouldn't change; at least not by default. Even better that this change back to the old way will fix a problem for accessibility for screen readers.
