The central point of this app is to determine proximity of two devices. That's not possible today in a cross-platform way using web apps.

The Quick 861DW has been a hobbyist favorite for a long time, and comes in at ~$300 (USD)

For modern systems, stack buffer overflow bugs haven't been great to exploit for a while. You need at least a stack cookie leak and on Apple Silicon the return addresses are MACed …

Yep! 60t/s on the 8 bit MLX on an M4 Pro with 64GB of RAM.

There's MLX versions of the model, so yes. LM Studio hasn't updated their mlx-lm runtime yet though, you'll get an exception. But if you're OK running it without a UI wrapper, mlx_…

It means more surface (both from extensions themselves and the loader code), relaxation of things like KTRR/CTRR (you now need to add executable EL1 pages at runtime), plus the pot…

You're confusing your opinion of the company with the perception by the general public. Apple's definitely not perceived as 'an office appliance company' by your average person. It…

It'd run on a 5090 with 32GB of VRAM at fp8 quantization which is generally a very acceptable size/quality trade-off. (I run GLM-4.5-Air at 3b quantization!) The transformer archit…

From what I've been reading the inference workload tends to ebb and flow throughout the day with much lower loads overnight than at for example 10AM PT/1PM ET. I understand compani…

I believe they mean the source region's tag, rather than the destination.

I have some inside knowledge here. KPP was released around the time KTRR on A11 was implemented to have some small amount of parity on <A11 SoCs. I vaguely remember the edict came …

This isn't a transformer, it's a diffusion model. You can't split diffusion models across compute nodes.

I can't comment on MCP use specifically but I can comment on using an LLM while reversing. I use a local instance of whatever ends up being SOTA for local reasoning LLMs at 30B-70B…
