I went to a talk of his once and discovered that I also have aphantasia. Seemed like a genuinely nice guy the little I interacted with him. RIP

Thanks Nirav, always appreciated :) P.S. The printer gag was cruel, just saying.

I really want to love this thing but at least in the UK, matching specs it comes out as more expensive than the MBP - even worse when you factor in potential discounts/sales which …

Any word if this applies internationally? Looking forward to seeing commingling phased out in the UK as well

The most frustrating part here is that this car crash of a policy had cross party support so there wasn’t even a way for UK people like me to vote against it.

Surprising there’s no matte-black iPhone 17 Pro - dark, low-reflectance finishes are standard in pro video kit because they minimise specular reflections and stray highlights; keep…

Thanks so much for this! I’d really appreciate a more consumer oriented subscription offering, similar to Claude Max, that combines Gemini CLI (with IP compliance) and the Gemini a…

Gemini 2.5 pro in workspace was restricted to 32k tokens [0] - do you know if this is still the case? [0] https://www.reddit.com/r/GoogleGeminiAI/comments/1jrynhk/war...

For zero-shot accuracy from Table 3: * LLaMA 3 8B: baseline 72.26, 4-bit 71.31, 3-bit 62.79 * LLaMA 3 70B: baseline 79.51, 4-bit 78.06, 3-bit 74.68 These results seem comparable to…

I was about to post something similar. While the research is interesting, it doesn’t offer any advantages over 3- or 4-bit quantization. I also have to assume they explored using l…

Exactly and anything new entering the spinning black hole is likely to inherit its spin.

Apologies, I stand corrected. Do you have a reference for this? I'm genuinely curious why the 96GB "limit" is so frequently cited - I assumed it must be a hardware limitation.

One thing to note on the more RAM: for the 128GB option, my understanding is that the GPU is limited to using only 96GB [1]. In contrast, on Macs, you can safely increase this to, …

A Mac mini with an M4 Pro and 64GB of memory has the same bandwidth and costs £1,999, compared to £1,750 for the Framework Desktop when factoring in the minimum costs for storage, …

Dual-layer LCD is best thought of as a separate technology from tandem OLED, due to being transmissive rather than emissive. In many respects, it surpasses OLED, which is why maste…

Thanks for the clarification! In that case, the README could definitely benefit from including at least one example to illustrate this functionality. That said, as you pointed out,…

I struggle to see the utility of projects like this. For tabular data in active use, decompression will still require the same peak memory, so optimizing data types (e.g., reducing…

I question the accuracy of those statistics. I’m one of the few people who game on macOS and almost exclusively use Steam via CrossOver, so I wouldn’t be included in that 1.37%. Th…

Privacy concerns aside, I personally don't appreciate binaries making network requests unless it's strictly required for them to function.

You probably know this already but just in case: you need to deregister iMessage explicitly and can do this online even without the device https://selfsolve.apple.com/deregister-im…

I strongly agree with this point and believe there's a generational aspect at play. For newcomers, the knowledge required to avoid being labeled a "low-ability developer" and to wr…
