@KyleGospo, Any plans for an arm64 version?

OpenAI releases GPT-4o model with free access for all.

This sounds like a step down for both openai and sama. Microsoft probably wins here as they still have access to openai tech and now the only entity with access to the same talent …

I am not sure about stock market summary and similar stuffs. I created a stock earnings report summariser [1] using the recently announced GPT from OpenAI. It is pretty handy and c…

I see a lot of value in the form of convenience from GPTs. It helps to avoid repeating the intial prompts for things that you want to do multiple times. For eg: I created a GPT for…

I think the omission of usb3 is because of the reuse the Apple silicon from last year which doesn’t have the builtin usb3 IP. Let’s wait for next year’s non-pro models to see if th…

Apart from the software stack, Nvidia has invested a lot in the networking infrastructure for high bandwidth between gpu in a cluster. I think their acquisition of Mellanox might h…

For anyone wondering about Linux support, here is a video of thinkpad 13s running GTA V on Linux at 30fps using Fex-emu: https://youtube.com/watch?v=WBOjioe8-8Y&feature=sharec

Some OS’s zram compress the unpinned pages instead of swapping to disk. It might be faster than fetching the pages again from disk. I wonder if this is a reason why folks see diffe…

Does Llama model has a token limit like ChatGPT api (4k tokens)?

The question is about Elon. The car I guess is still registered to him. So legally, wouldn’t he still has a claim to it?

Hypothetically, if I spend a billion dollar and capture Elon’s roadster in space, would it belong to me legally?

For ipad, Capture One subscription is way costlier than Lr.

After I used a dslr camera for few months, I notice small ugly artefacts in my iPhone 12 mini’s pics. Along with that, smartphone pics has a weird distortion which is very noticeab…

It has passive cooling solution a.k.a throttling. It is the same thing what your smartphone does.

Okay, plot twist. Musk never intended to buy twitter. Whole ploy was to get access to twitter’s firehose of data to train his AI. On the serious side, I can’t believe someone would…

It might be difficult for us to imagine a shift to VR version of social media. But think about the next generation of kids growing up with these kind of techs. They will mass adopt…

Here in India, I have found that just casually asking for a discount will instantly get you a small discount in a lot cases. You just need to look not excited at the product and po…

Maybe because bluetooth is stuck with 2.4ghz band. So when you move the noisy wifi out of this band, bluetooth gets extra bandwidth to transfer higher quality audio.

Can I use this as an ssh terminal to login to my development machine? I wonder if the display latency would make it non-starter for this usecase.

I wonder if we put AI in a humanoid form, it may find a more efficient form of movement with limbs which look very odd to us. Then we need to put some hacks or artificial constrain…

If something is not repairable without breaking a bank, it is better to go for cheap and good enough options.

You are absolutely right about the situation in the developing countries. Here in India, an Apple product costs around 150% of what it cost in USA. But when it comes about after sa…

I welcome these sort of new experiments as long as they give an option to revert to the previous behaviour. At least until they have a real world data to confirm 99 percentile user…

How about randomising/reset these bits from kernel whenever there is a syscall? Not a great workaround but this should limit the effectiveness of leaking. Yeah, there will be tiny …
