$500k is a vast overestimation. For massive concurrency at FP8 or even BF16 maybe. NVFP4 at reasonable speeds (~120 tok/s) and concurrency is possible at a $80/90k figure with toda…

It's more about the trajectory.

It is insane that we are comparing locally-hostable models to leading cloud providers, it is wild to me that this article even exists. We have come a long way, and very clearly hav…

I don’t foresee development timelines speeding up but I am seeing entire applications being built by one developer instead of four over the same timeframe. If anything communicatio…

It's a home desktop form-factor with 8x48gb DDR5 6800, 9985WX, a whole lotta fans and a 1600W PSU. Max-Qs are the only card you can fit four of into this rig without PCIe extenders…

I have been thinking about this a lot. I just bought a rather expensive rig for local inference for a home agent (powered by four RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Max-Qs). As I contemplate h…

I just learned I have this as well (not as severe). Quercitin helped me. I am taking I think 1600mg (with bromelain) per day. How much was she taking, and what is the mast cell sta…

Go off and run a comparison of Qwen 3.6 27B and GLM 5.1 GGUF ( https://huggingface.co/ubergarm/GLM-5.1-GGUF ) at IQ2_KL 261.988 GiB (2.985 BPW) and let me know if you learn anythin…

This is patently false. I work with and on AI every day at multiple levels of the stack, and every day I'm learning massive new swathes of information. I'm honestly shocked how dee…

If it wasn’t a learning opportunity to build those things, that was the waste. You can learn from an AI far more easily than from a book — only now it’s far more easy not to and ma…

It seems like the author is overindexing on useful and underindexing on wonderful. He clearly had fun building these products — and in hindsight is disavowing them because they did…

Why can’t they continue to do so? If anything an underlying truth about humanity is being exposed: we take the easy way out far more often than we’d like to admit. Perhaps, this tr…

Though I deeply agree with this sentiment, the author fails to address that there can be multiple goals to an action. And writing can be for art or communication or both but not al…
