    Eh, what are you guys even talking about? Deepseek is not cheapest provider as is, and it's MIT. So deepseek making it more expensive to use is just nonsense, they can only change …

    You can get easily over 100 tok/s on the Gemma 4 31B QAT if you enable MTP. Same goes for the 27B. I'm getting 880 tok/s of throughout on a single RTX 5090 for batch tasks.

    While most don't, there are developers who actually do understand systems from end to end. Most developers are terrible developers, compared to the really good ones.

    I've been running a small game dev studio for ~20 years, and the one change I think must be made, is to ban the usage of "buy" when it comes to games. Games are licensed, not bough…

    A common extreme misconception is that inference is expensive and that providers are loosing a lot of money. Inference is extremely lucrative and profitable.

    But you are talking about Europe. If the US and Europe were to cut all ties they would both face some serious consequences, and the US wouldn't be able to do anything about that, n…

    Hey! We Norwegians have on average more ownership in US tech companies than Americans! Everything is going according to plan. When we have majority, we'll move the companies to Nor…

    To be fair, it would be a bigger issue for the US. No country is more economically dependant on the rest of the world than the US. The US is living on the USD, and if others stop u…

    The price, processed tokens, and output can be anything, it just depends on what GPU it is. Nvidia GPUs are much more efficient than Apple hardware for inference(and training).

    The proper way to implement it is to issue digital IDs and use ZK proofs to verify the age. That way the service doesn't know anything other that the fact that you have an official…

    A dark, but not totally unfair take: It makes it easier for Apple to take payment for the models others provide, and even allows Apple, if they want to, to use the data to build a …

    You are creating a 3D model when you scan using Pokémon Go. Difference in lenses doesn't matter, that only matters for the scanning step.

    No reasonable person relies on Apple's statements as facts. That said by Apple's laywers, and is especially true here. Apple can access the data if they want, and so can Google and…

    Exactly. That page objectively proves that Apple can't be trusted and breaks their promises.

    Hacker news doesn't generate much traffic, despite what people are saying. The host here has a limit of 160000 files served each day. That is extremely low. If the site has an icon…

    While Google does a good job with language support in their models, GPT-5.5 can't write proper Norwegian. It's even making up words that does not exist.

    Noctua wants their fans to last for many years, spinning at 2K rpm, with heat. Being able to produce something with lower tolerance is one thing. Making it work long term at ~10 m/…

    A simple LAMP stack can give you <1ms page loads for most applications. Even 15 years ago you could serve over 100k/rps of lightweight PHP pages from a low end server.
