It's very impressive and I'm running it locally on 2x DGX. Non thinking mode is very responsive. Thinking mode has some latency but can be switched on when needed. Both are really …

ISS today generates and radiates away about 120 KW of energy with its old tech 3250 sq m of panels panels and it's current radiators. That's what 3 H100 racks need There may be an …

Well OpenAI is offering equity to the US Government (and who knows who else privately) Tim Apple famously refused to bring manufacturing back to the US when the current president a…

Materials science fundamentally has a math & computability problem. Rigorous materials simulations at a nanometre scale seem now feasible - so you could model physical properties o…

HaHa I was thinking just the same :-) For those unfamiliar with the reference, in Hitchikers guide to the galaxy series, Mice are projections of hyper intelligent extra terrestrial…

Used both. DeepSeek-4 Flash Q2 - last 6 layers Q4 quant with DwarfStar which just about fits in 128Gb is definitely superior IMO - my contexts tend to run typically 50-100k. Throug…

Is this advice coming from personal experience of significant diabetes and weight reversal or just online reading informed opinion? Physiology & psychology are quite complex and in…

It's quite interesting what incentives and culture being a privately held company creates.

You do see this working in many places. Singapore is probably the best example with an explicit scholar programme and competitive pay in much of the upper rungs of the government. …

> We're still in the "$5 airport Uber" era of LLMs. They're heavily subsidized, and everyone still complains about costs. This is nonsense that AI providers want to peddle. Inferen…

Inference I estimate runs 90% plus gross margins. Just work out the math on these servers. I am pretty sure any player can price down. It wouldn't look good on an IPO prospectus.

So a lot depends on your specific use case but mid-sized open weight models are pretty actually good now, so this is realistic [1] The first question to ask is does your use case r…

And companies from outside the US will outcompete those from the US forcing more protectionism, higher prices in US etc. I think there have been several cycles of several industrie…

The problem here is that open weight models are already good enough for a majority of process automation and intelligence tasks and that is where a good chunk of efficiency corpora…

As an update, turns out Antirez created a brilliant 2 bit quant of Deepseek to fit into 128Gb systems along with a custom highlight tuned server. I've been running this the last fe…

I think Israel's leadership has very unwisely lost the Strategic plot here in favour of tactical political advantages of survival. The history of middle East for the last 5000 year…

Deepseek Flash v4 actually runs on 128Gb systems (about 14 tok/sec). Antirez created a fabulous 2 bit quant and a highly tuned LLM server https://github.com/antirez/ds4

Pretty sure this ruling will be used as a precedent in cases against the other providers really soon. As I understand it, there is a legal cottage industry that brings digital rela…

I found cloudflare zero trust excellent for this and it works perfectly well on the free tier (I do use cloudflare as my registrar)

Deepseek is too large for me to self host on Spark. I was actually using Deepseek as my cloud backup and it performed well but then read the T&C which doesn't give as strong data p…

Picketty's analysis has been empirical. The assumption that is likely mistaken is there is such a thing as market economy.

Qwen is definitely the model to beat as of Mid 2026. While I didn't benchmark with SWE as my use cases are OpenClaw [1]. I found both Qwen 3.6 35B A3B and more impressively Qwen 3.…

What is "finish the job"? Iran is a large populous country that's mostly been a unified polity since Cyrus the Great. They are a different people and culture from their Arab neighb…

Given their precarious domestic supply situation, it's been surprising they haven't chosen to lead the world on electrification of transport. China had much the same equation and h…
