Gemma 4 31B is underrated. It surprises me a lot.

I have put together an internal benchmark on 1000s of business documents with weird tables, structure, etc. that I run on every relevant model release. Opus 4.8 performs very very …

Opus is very good at OCR. Way better than the small 1-4B VLMs. If Opus failed, most likely those smaller models will fail as well.

Why would you need the 3rd run if you pick the "one in the middle"?

In Germany we have several accounting software solutions like that for 5-10+ years that integrate with bank accounts, paypal, etc. - automatically suggests booking accounts and exp…

No lightmode?

Well, we have to "register" every new IP or new mail server with them as well. It's annoying and a weird system, but they respond quickly and it's just one todo we have to think ab…

GitLab is very very heavy with a lot of bloat and sadly still a bad UI/UX. I prefer Gitea for its simplicity. Gitea Actions are similar to Github Actions and they work great.

Which models will this be able to run at an acceptable token/s rate?

The problem with ONCE is that software is never finished. This is why most ONCE software that is still available today is charging a one off licensing fee + update fee (e.g. charge…

It's only on-die ECC not real ECC

It's an interesting article, thanks for that. What people forget about the OVH or Hetzner comparison is that for those entry servers they are known for, think the Advance line with…

The most annoying thing for me currently is that when connecting to local smb shares with Finder and adding favorites (directories on shares), after a reboot they are still there u…

They changed their license to AGPL, removed features (Web UI, etc.) and now they don't provide docker images/binaries. It's their project but; what's next?

Is there a fork already?

Twilio seems to be affected as well

They limit them to 7500 IOPS, as stated in their docs. It also doesn't scale with size, the limit is there for every volume of any size.

Thanks for asking! The infrastructure is actually the less interesting part for us, since our platform is written to be completely portable. The USP is the platform itself, that me…
