I'm with you brother/sister. It is a tragedy that even with the diaspora of Android makers and models, we can't get anything like it. I hung onto my Pixel 4 for years; bought a new Pixel 4 after too many screen cracks and bat

Community; network effects. Also, observe that the competitors all copied it's UI. And on a case-by-case basis, they have drawbacks of their own.

What is confusing to me is that this is intended to be run (I believe) on LoRa devices, but it requires a PC with python running. I researched this for a project at work involving these devices. (Sx128x or sx1262 LorA radios connected to an

I'm about to write a browser plugin to (coarsely) filter out LLm-written articles, and superficial articles about LLMs. There are great articles and discussions here, but are buried in these which make finding them a task. It is also i

Ah! That may explain the entirety of my disconnect.

Maybe a dumb question, but what are you doing/seeing others do that uses that many tokens? I find myself pressing the weekly caps on the $20/month plan only when I'm really having the LLMs go wild with the Xtra high effort on

You could reductio ad-absurdum this logic quite broadly. We all form beliefs about the world and its aspects, and almost always through fallible sources. Should one be confident about ones of questionable provenance? I say no. But forming

These categories add up to 100%. Where do the engines that are not "custom" (e.g. by the developer who made the game), or the major ones listed fit in?

We don't even need to reverse the trend! Android is flexible, so it wouldn't be a big ask for one of the many models to be smaller! Each pixel is larger than the last. I was a Pixel 4 holdout until a few months ago when they stopp

Hey - this is probably off-topic/meta, but what is going on with the comments here? Is it bots?

I care because it means I can use this in a Rust program without a FFI barrier. Regrettably, we have built computing infrastructure as a society with many barriers; programming language is one.

I'm confused too. How does this fit between these approaches for paraellization: - CUDA kernels and Tiles (e.g. Cudarc, cuda-oxide, rust-gpu etc) - SIMD on the GPU. (E.g. as in the title...) - CPU SIMD using avx or SSE instructio

> I wanted an AI reviewer on every PR at work. Quotes came back around $1M/year, Can you please clarify this? That sounds out of line with what the $20 month Claude or OpenAI plans are capable of.

I hear you. I'm the fool who bought an RTX4080 because "$1600 is too much for a GPU". (RTX4090; shipped to your door from the nvidia website). I don't think there's any reasonable upgrade path right nor or in the ne
