I think you’re missing the real purpose vs the stated purpose. The point is monitoring everyone, age verification requires you to share who you are.

After reading the story, it seems like lack of training. I think training should assume GPS goes out (which it does), in this case they didn’t pull up when they saw “lights going o…

Unfortunately, the AI being locked down and proprietary is the winning strategy for these companies. My company hosts its own models. Some customers require us to use either US / E…

If you're self-hosting a model as a startup (e.g. using GPUs), you're almost certainly using a Chinese model. If your a startup outsourcing (e.g. using tokens), you're going to be …

As a tractor owner. Two things, the DPF & SCR (>=75hp) on a tractor is not a great idea -- 1) Tractors are typically owned by low margin businesses (i.e. farmers) that need to be r…

We actually found the Mistral Small 4, quantized to 4bit was comparable to Qwen 3.6 27B and is roughly the same size. At least from our experience on our use cases, the quantizatio…

Yup, that's pretty much what I was saying for the above. I had a Kubota and can indeed attest to the issue(s).

They're both considered medium tractors with similar weights for a similar purpose. I forget the official weights, but it's something like 100-175HP is mid-tier.

You can get a kubota M5-111 with a closed cab for $70k-100k, cheaper than these. Plus zero percent financing though then for 5-7 years. Well built and a comparable class in terms o…

There's still plenty of moats frankly, same moats as before. What isn't the moat is the software development time. In our case, we're building a tool that has a moat from: integrat…

Bourdain actually joked about killing himself in the exact manner and location in, which he did. When I heard it happened, my wife and I both recalled the same times he'd mentioned…

There’s a lot of indications that we’re currently brute forcing these models. There’s honestly not a reason they have to be 1T parameters and cost an insane amount to train and run…
