    Zitron's posts reminds me of all the analysts who predicted the collapse of TSLA based on the fundamentals, and recommended shorting it. How does that saying go? "markets can remai…

    I would say affordable 25gbit symmetric for residential is vanishingly rare in the US.

    Interesting repo, but I don't see comprehensive support for MLX/metal backends. MLX performs significantly better on mac hardware - a 100line PR could add this support. Additionall…
