  • Percy Jackson lore is unhinged

    Jump

  • The depiction of Hades as evil is my biggest pet peeve with that series. In most of the myths Hades is chaotic neutral at worst. I know this is a common mischaracterization because of the association with death but I'd expect better from a series that pulls so much directly from the myths.

  • The AI company Perplexity is complaining their bots can't bypass Cloudflare's firewall

    Jump

  • Perplexity (an "AI search engine" company with 500 million in funding) can't bypass cloudflare's anti-bot checks. For each search Perplexity scrapes the top results and summarizes them for the user. Cloudflare intentionally blocks perplexity's scrapers because they ignore robots.txt and mimic real users to get around cloudflare's blocking features. Perplexity argues that their scraping is acceptable because it's user initiated.

    Personally I think cloudflare is in the right here. The scraped sites get 0 revenue from Perplexity searches (unless the user decides to go through the sources section and click the links) and Perplexity's scraping is unnecessarily traffic intensive since they don't cache the scraped data.

  • pip cache is another common culprit, I've seen up to 50GB

  • Rockchip unveils RK3668 10-core Arm Cortex-A730/Cortex-A530 SoC with 16 TOPS NPU, RK182X LLM/VLM co-processor

  • The bench numbers seem about right for 200GB/s bandwidth. The prefill speeds are really impressive for an SBC though.

  • Running Local LLMs with Ollama on openSUSE Tumbleweed

    Jump

  • It also sets context length to 2k by default iirc, which breaks a lot of tasks, and gives a general bad first impression to users who are likely using local models for the first time.

  • Dan Bongino weighs resigning from FBI after heated confrontation with Pam Bondi over Epstein files

    Jump

  • Could say the same for both

  • They've been saying this for the last 2 years

  • Take a shot of vitamin M and keep fighting, Soldier!

    Jump

  • Non-healing consumables are always either so strong they're required to finish the game (Terraria) or so weak that they may as well be a placebo (Cyberpunk).

  • Google's AI now listens to your English language phone conversations

  • They get a new feature to boast about

  • "Free market" fans when free market

  • World's fastest Flash memory developed: writes in just 400 picoseconds

    Jump

  • The speed of many machine learning models is bound by the speed of the memory they're loaded on so that's probably the biggest one.

  • Removed

  • Senators don't have that kind of power. The constitution's fatal flaw is that it designates the legislative branch to make the laws and the judicial to interpret them, but left both reliant on the executive branch the enforce them. He could certainly try to bring Garcia back but without the executive branch on his side he'd likely get stuck there himself.

  • Unpopular popular opinion - fiat

    Jump

  • Exchange has always been done with IOUs. Even when bartering was the meta they still exchanged promissory notes for larger scale transactions where they didn't have the goods on hand.

  • Microsoft researchers build 1-bit AI LLM with 2B parameters — model small enough to run on some CPUs

    Jump

  • Rather than CPUs I think these are a much bigger deal for GPUs where memory is much more expensive. I can get 128GB of ram for 300CAD, the same amount in vram would be several grand.

  • ./build.sh

    Jump

  • You're licking the boots of a company that uses the work of others without compensation or credit then sells it back to you at a premium. This is the exact behavior the GPL license aimed to prevent. I have nothing against the technology if it's made with permission and benefits the people it depends on, but that's clearly not the case here.

    Ludites are an apt comparison. The Luddites fought to protect their industry from industrialists who aimed to replace them with cheap, low skilled and child labour. The goal of AI isn't advancement it's replacement, and most of the companies pushing it are transparent about that.

  • You can't larp about using opensource software while creating memes using closed source garbage.

  • Seems pretty underwhelming. They're comparing a 109B to a 27B and it's kind of close. I know it's only 17B active but that's irrelevant for local users who are more likely going to be filtered by memory rather than speed.

  • Have fun. Don't take anything too seriously because it's all pointless
