    Definitely something in this realm, they call the models "preview" at a bunch of different points in the paper. What im really hoping is for a double-punch like with V3 -> R1

    > "can I get my coding work actually done today" vs. "this can do customer support chat" I think you need to define "can get coding work done" for this to make sense. Ive been usin…

    One can see the impact of this cultural-wave on people above ~40 pretty heavily. Hand-in-hand with the whole "Atomkraft ? Nein Danke" campaign. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucl…

    The major selling point of the tinyboxes is that you're able to run them in your office without any hassle. I used to own a Dell Poweredge for my home-office, but those fans even o…

    Yes, but in practice land-ownership is only zero sum in places like Europe where every square-kilometer has 300 years of documented ownership etc, or other high-density areas. The …

    I think the author might argue, that simply becoming more efficient at creating a rent-seeking mechanism is not beneficial. No matter how well motivated you are to improve your zer…

    You can already buy A100/H100s on eBay. While it might not ever be economical to run these at home (cost of electricity), but it's plenty fun.

    Cool idea, but kinda sad that it has to go through a cloud-provider. I feel like there's a possibility with an accelerator-board (Coral TPU or something), to make this into a total…

    I guess the question is if it's like the crypto-bubble, where theres no real value left in the end (haven't heard of a good use for those ASICs). Or more like the dot-com bubble wh…

    Okay yes, but would you really say that the main part of non-determinism in LLM-usage stems from this ? No its obviously the topk sampling. I don't think my tech-lead was trying to…
