Doesn't even sound like a developed country to me. Is that the US or something?

You're saying it as if privacy was worthless? Also not many people would consider the price of buying a macbook and put it strictly towards running a local model. Instead if you wanted to get a macbook anyway, you get to run local mode

I know you got a ton of responses already but not caring about replicability just invalidates science as a method. If we care only about first to publish we end up in the current situation where we don't even know that we know is actua

I don't think that's necessary, just make sure the context is not shared. A pretty good model can handle both sides well enough.

I think people are misunderstanding reward functions and LLMs. LLMs don't actually have a reward system like some other ML models.

It's silly, who wouldn't answer yes to the question "would you like to finish your task faster?". The real trick is to produce more but by putting less effort than before.

One thing to consider before doing the same, a computer done for homelab has a much lower consumption. The setup mentioned in the article has an avg 600 kWh/year as opposed to a pretty solid HP EliteDesk (my own homelab) which uses 100

Can you elaborate? Just to make your comment less of a useless knee-jerk reaction but rather a discussion started for someone else.

I can barely get some people to do a week off eating red meat, imagine going cold turkey completely. If people haven't revolted about other stuff they definitely will for saving their meat consumption.

Sure but I can now create a subset of those packages which fit 100% my use case. Also I don't know what you're arguing for, I was just saying that spending most of the time making tools without doing anything with them is not the

Yep, first party open source and long support. If this existed, you'll get people recommending it to their parents. Now the only thing I can honestly recommend is a UbuntuTouch phone but mostly to devs, for now.

There is fun in what you use something for and doing the something. I think there is a big divide between people who just love making different tools from scratch by hand and the rest who love being able to instantly whip up a new tool in m

Writing code is cheaper than ever. Maintaining it is exactly the same as ever and it scales with the LOC. Code is still liability but it's undeniable that going from thought to running code is very cheap today.

As any language, the core is "why" do you want to learn it. Is it to add it to a list and that's it? Then you might struggle by creating todo lists or play pretend on Duolingo. On the other hand, if you do have a goal in mind

How is any of those hobby even remotely cringe? I honestly don't understand. Tiktokking for attention as a job is cringe but making stuff like we did for eons cannot possibly be.

From the screenshots to the text feels AI slop. Haven't tried it but the store page doesn't give a good vibe and there are quite a few like this out there to make a quick buck.

Really cool, just one nitpick is that the "What do you want?" is used for 2 completely states (greeting and alert), which is not good UX-wise. Otherwise totally fun idea!

There will always be someone unhappy for literally any aspect of something new. Finding 2.5gb for a local LLM problematic in 2026, I really cannot think what is safe anymore. We went from impossible to centralised to local in a couple of ye

Tech is as fun, and even more fun than it used to be, in my opinion. The software and hardware limitations are a fun challenge (albeit becoming ever so more hard to break) and you can have kids enter at any stage of technology: from a simpl

I wonder how people like you would have fared even just 100y ago, if typing on a keyboard with your own fingers is so foundational to your identity.

At our company we use AI extensively to see if we missed edge cases and it does a pretty good job in pointing us towards places which could be handled better. I know we all think we are always so deep into absolutely novel territory, which

Why even come to this site if you're so anti-innovation? Today with LLMs you can literally spend 5 minutes defining what you want to get, press send, go grab a coffee and come back to a working POC of something, in literally any progra
