As an owner of a medical clinic, there's an unbelievable difference between founder and inheritance. One is ambitious, the other is a nepo baby.

Historically we've seen capitalism be a good thing. Probably the biggest problem with medical is that it's incredibly regulated for the industry's benefit.

Still more democracy. And rethoric doesn't matter in international relations. It's empty posturing. When is France going to send troops to Ukraine? Sorry pals, this is one of the failings/successes of k12. We are taught Ideal

ITT: people dealing with realities. Remember Chinese accounts on US Facebook say data centers are bad.

You cannot mention astroturfing on hacker news.

Yep. The UN is a ceremonial organization that occasionally we get agreement on measurement units. That's not what they teach in school though, and I think that genuinely is misinformation for Americans trying to understand internationa

What's the name for this? Apple distortion field or something? Since we can't mention Apple marketing making comments on hacker news, let's say they are on Reddit. :D

Ban calculators moment. In my master's they gave me anything I wanted, laptop, internet, whatever. Gave 2 stupid hard problems. That's the future.

Even the "educated" people on HN have literal incorrect understanding. It's a difficult problem to solve.

That's essentially what they have done for military/defense. The United States saves the day. France pretends they are in charge with grand speeches. I was close to a European immigrant and 2 things she was shocked about: How rich

I'd split it into 2 camps. Elites who realize Europe isn't a unified group or has a military strong enough for defense.. And people who get wet when France says they are going to send soldiers to Ukraine and it never materializes.

Oh go get a $700 Nvidia laptop. Sorry local models are basically useless outside chat, I didn't even consider it.

What was rude? No one bothered him. Also the entire purpose of them buying it was so the department had a LLM. I proposed A6000. That ended up working.

You could buy a $150 refurbished 16gb i5 and use that model until openAI does its IPO and has to become sane again. But I guess a $2000 Mac is probably better if you don't care about cost or quality.

Old school Berkeley Sterling or an abliterared model.

Waste of time when I can pay $20 a month for sol.

Uh... Even my $700 laptop with a 3060 can run 9b models.

Apple did great work convincing people their unified memory was good at AI. Even AI says Apple is the best of all time at marketing. Meanwhile the stock market has Nvidia at the top... Until everyone gets cuda.

If you just want chat. Agents require at least DeepSeek pro and even that is the minimum. You might be able to get a good model to write instructions and run it in smaller models. Otherwise, cool your AI got the current weather.

I watched someone at a fortune 20 company get embarrassed for buying a Mac to run a 70B model in 2025. He was a lead engineer, so after he announced it wasn't going to work, everyone pretended it never happened. But we all knew.

I can't imagine using CPU... Oh I did twice. If you are work from home and do dishes between prompts you can get a gpt3-like result. I found it useful when I was... Well I didn't find it useful. But an Nvidia 3060 let me ask uneth

Um.... If I learned anything from Apple, the best and brightest don't matter. Capitalism forces the best and brightest to make apps for the walled prison because the masses saw someone dancing with colorful backgrounds. I do know a few

Yeah I'm not sure what they are talking about... Joke: it doesn't have 80% market share. But also with AI, the most I'm doing is hitting inspect and sending problem elements. Maybe screen resizing for mobile.

I'm quite torn on this. The United States needs a strong economy to counter China and keep Europe safe. In the short term, this might be nice, but in the medium term these moves might cause significant disruption to what makes the Unit

I use it exclusively on Android for the ad block on naughty hot girl sites wink wink. I use chrome and those sites are miserable.

Use a vps and only give access to what you need.

Are you anti AI or can't afford tokens? This is some serious irrational hatred. It can literally use your credit card, buy a server, and ssh into it, make a full stack app, and test it.

But when the software is finished and works, who cares? Not everything is security critical. Like "Ohh you got a bunch of CRM addresses of people who go to a small time dog grooming company. You ready to sell that on the dark web?&quot

If you are only using a 27b model, you have no idea what you are missing out on.. It's transformed my company and have 500% growth since February. Sorry I can't exactly share what we are doing. NDAs and stuff.
