Do ISPs have to comply with the 1st ammendment? My understanding was that they have some sort of common carrier law but net neutrality did not hold up.

I have epyc 9654 ES and a 7900 XTX. I was running the numbers, and even if I maxxed out the ram to like 12x32 gig sticks, it would cost me thousands more and I could only run GLM-5.2 at a couple tokens per second at q3. So this project is v

I also just edited my comment with more ideas in the beginning, sorry

I am curious if it's possible to adjust this to use more RAM, as i've got a machine with 64GB RAM and 24GB VRAM. Or perhaps I could run Gemma/Qwen on the GPU and have GLM-5.2 delegate smaller tasks to it. It might take some r

GLM-5.2 is not as good as Opus, it's better. I can abliterate GLM-5.2 and have it work on projects that Opus refuses.

The problem is that your system can be changed at any time such that you can have the information.

I would say that they are snake oil because of that. Data breaches occur more often than rootkits because most developers see that this path adding easily-removable encryption does nothing in the long run.

I think the point is that you can apply it to any shameful-enough aspect of the libel/parody.

I think it is a reasonable term to use in the context of adversarial AI development. Does that mean I am getting paid by the CIA or something?

No, but you need some sort of blockchain to enforce uniqueness in petname systems due to zooko's trilemma. If you're okay with another side of the triangle, where all of the identities are keypairs, then you don't need a petn

Good question, this made me think. You get a reward for being a mining node, not just any node. Even then, do miners have much incentive to share blocks, other than the ones they mine? I think the incentive is mutual for most nodes (aside f

I think you're right that transaction fees are a key problem. It's ultimately a bandwidth problem. You're bidding for the limited vbytes, and the bidding price only increases with traffic, kicking poor users out. I think the

Perhaps some sort of namecoin or ENS-like petname system with multisig or some type of scripting that enables different recovery methods. For example, you could set your petname up so it can be controlled by a single keypair, which can be o

Necroing this, but perhaps you might be interested in some sort of BOINC-like PoW scheme for websites. This was a distributed computing project originially known as Seti@Home. It's not really practical for cryptocurrency PoW applicatio

There's a saying that if an idea is stupid, but it works, it's not stupid. If some computation is "useless" but it serves it's purpose, it's not useless. The reason why bitcoin network expends so much energy is

I wouldn't find it so grating if I wasn't constantly reading it. Maybe 5 years ago I would have liked this writing pattern. Same for those diagrams they include. What it lacks is the effort it takes for a couple minutes to whittle
