    Sure but that holds true for most new tech. Expensive and slow but it can only get better or stay the same. I'm thinking it's only going to get better.

    Your video is showing Kimi 2.6, not 3? Once the weights are released, there might be providers that serve it without the censorship filter.

    A very beautiful website and a machine. Oxide folks should be proud, you can see the love that went into it.

    70% of the Steam users have a PC that's weaker than the Steam Machine[0]. These things will sell out, that's not the issue. The issue is that Valve probably won't have enough power…

    Auth with Github Copilot and then point it to localhost[0]. Hopefully the auth to Copilot requirement will be dropped for local models at some point. Would love to use a fully open…

    For personal needs I connected VSCode with llama.cpp running Qwen 3.6 27B or Gemma 4 31B and it's good enough to cancel my cloud subscription. Qwen running on my 1st GPU at q4@176k…

    "I'm sorry" is not gaslighting but an admission of fault it learned from our texts. And if an LLM managed to delete your database, it's time to slow down the vibe train and put up …

    Taalas showed that you could make LLMs faster by turning them into ASICs and get 10k+ token generation. It's a matter of time now.

    For now. These will be pretty cool Linux machines if Asahi starts supporting them at some point.

    I would not go below q8 if comparing to sonnet.

    I assume you're living in a city. You're already renting out a lot of things to others (security, electricity, water, food, shelter, transportation), what is different with white c…

    At least with GitHub it's hard to hide when you get "no healthy upstream" on a git push.

    I don't understand how you can ship a car without proper papers out of the country so easily. Maybe focus on that first?

    Agentic editing is really nice. If on VSCode, Cline works well with Ollama.

    This would be true if not for open-weights (and even some open source) LLMs that exist today. Not everything should be done for profit.

    It's relevant from an engineering perspective. They have a way to develop a new model in months now.

    I've stopped using search engines actively 18 months ago. My first stop is an LLM. Once I understand what I actually need, I do a web search to go to the product/tool website. I do…

    This happened during 15 minutes of silence for 15 persons that died in the collapse. Everyone was silent and mourning.

    That's a blatant lie. We are protesting because 15 people died in Novi Sad because of corruption, 4 months ago. We want justice.

    If there's potential military use and you don't build it, you risk your adversary doing that.

    On a long-enough scale, this planet will die anyways. Let's first try to expand life and unlock the secrets of the Universe, as much as possible.
