Disclaimer: I use AI at work and for some projects at home and find it really useful (as long as you know when and how to use it) With that said... It's funny how we went from "vib…

I'm honestly surprised he held on for so long. Can't tell if it made a difference, though, as I haven't used Twitter for about decade. I'm having a somewhat hard time understanding…

While I agree on some level, this not a great comparison. A compiler/linker/etc is an algorithmic, precise, verifiable, repeatable, debuggable, etc, etc, process. Using an LLM is a…

I almost feel that we have a new generation of the "script-kiddie". People without much (or any?) knowledge of software engineering using outside tooling to do "stuff" they wouldn'…

Yes... And, perhaps the political comments here are a reasonable reaction to the misguided political influence that shaped grok. How can we trust grok after this? At least it will …

Not much one can do I fear... Install f-droid and all kinds of 3rd part apps now. Install GrapheneOS. (I'm guilty of not having that done that,yet :( ) Sign the petition ( https://…

What Google is doing is shameful. One of the promises of Android was being more open than the restrictive Apple ecosystem. Now that they reached penetration they do the switch - un…

How qwen3.6:27b compare to qwen3.6:35b-a3b (MoE) in your experience (if you tried). I find the dense models are way too slow on my H/W.

I soooo wish that to be true. Alas, in my experience it is not... Yet. What is true is that it gets easier and faster to run local models. With QAT (quantization aware training), t…

This is really awesome. I tried my test-task (generate a Python wrapper for a fairly complex C-interface) with gemma4:26b-a4b-it-qat. And for the first time it would just do it, wi…

Thank god some sanity prevails. Adding these to the index immediately would force passive index funds (multiple trillions of $) to buy this stock, and thus not allow the market to …

I use Claude every day. Often for multiple hours a day. Basically doing my job not worrying how many tokens I spend (as in too many or too few). This is a pretty complex code base …

I am using Opus 4.x at work, and these "smaller" (20-80bn, 3-4bn active) models at home. Unfortunately there is no comparison, yet (IMHO anyway). With Opus I can work, trust its de…

Please, not the SAT! My son is prepping for the SAT and I am helping him. I studied physics and computer science, and was a advanced math A+ student... IMHO: The SAT is useless, so…

Good. Just naming things differently does not work in other countries. If it quacks like a duck, swims like a duck, and looks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

Other countries paying $10,000's to educate people who then want to apply this knowledge in the US. US reaction: "Nah." Besides, we are talking about legal immigration here. I don'…

Are we purposefully dumbing down the country now? Sure, some things are trade-secrets or national security issues or whatnot, but those are already not shared. More than militarily…

> Wrong the way it would be wrong to predict that if you set your kitchen on fire, the result will be a renovation. This might be favorite metaphor ever, and one I'll quoting in th…

I guess it all depends on what you use it for. I work on database optimizers and other database related stuff, and I can assure Claude Code - with all the highest settings - does m…

The size of the KV cache (context stored) is proportional to the number of layers of the model and number of "hidden dimensions". For a 400B model it could be 30-60GB for just an 8…

I am fascinated by this and similar research (RotorQuant, etc). It seem by next year we will be able to run this year's largest models on last year's hardware. :) Maybe we won't ne…

Hmm... Sure, if you do not need a database then do not use a database. Don't use a sports-car to haul furniture or a garbage truck as an ambulance. For the use case and scale menti…

So Cal.com favors security through obscurity. Open Source was always open to "many eyes" in theory exposing itself to zero-day vulnerabilities. But the "many eyes" go for the good …

Good. Now leave TikTok and Facebook as well. People who care will find out what you are up to, and people who don't won't see you on social media anyway. I left Twitter, Facebook, …

How much many more wars over gas or oil do we need to finally just take the energy that (for the most part) is available locally and renewable?! The petrol era is coming to an end.…
