The thing they don't show is the one we really need, especially because model providers can skimp on quality (run lower quantization, lower kv cache precision, etc) to improve their pricing and performance. I agree that it's proba

Haha, yeah, I mostly remember that they exist and then go look up the actual quote.

I can’t say I really disagree, and as a visitor of the site that’s the solution I would prefer.

llama.cpp (but maybe not for reasoning models?) and sillytavern, maybe others... I'm half a country away from my desktop right now so I can't verify much right now.

I had a discussion about this with a friend recently. I was using an LLM with a serial console that it wrote to allow us to share a connection to a Z80 computer running CP/M. I was having trouble with the assembler, it wouldn’t assembl

Some LLM interfaces allow you to modify and “continue” an agent response. It’s very useful for guidance, including jailbreaking. Need the model to go in a certain direction? Got a refusal that you want to bypass? Just start it off in the ap

Oh, interesting. I want to say there’s a “preserve thinking” option in mainline llama.cpp, but I’m seeing mixed results in my searches and my in-flight internet is not good enough to dig into it properly. Good to hear you have a solution th

I’ve noticed dsv4 do that as well, but inconsistently. I thought it was broken at first, but no, it’s just kind of shorthand that it does while thinking.

What’s that about the template breaking the kv cache?

Yeah, of all the parts to leave a out, sorting out a little enclosure is certainly the easiest and most likely to require customization.

I'm surprised that it's pretty much the same as the adapters you can get on aliexpress. Not even a case to protect it from feet in the passenger footwell. Especially compared to the windshield-mount unit, which looks like a very s

That’s a good one. And yes, of course I mean its history of usage in computing, not in general.

I wondered how far back the usage of that term went. I was familiar with it in patch, so I did a little digging and found it in the v1.3 (1985!) source by Larry Wall: https://groups.google.com/g/mod.sources/c/

What influence do you have over these companies where your trust or distrust matters? [edit] This is an awfully pessimistic take. Even if these companies will largely do whatever they like, some of us can at least make choices to use altern

It also has an “ed” that will make you miss UNIX’s “ed”. I’ve used it to write programs and it is not fun!

If the printer doesn't extrude sufficient volume for the speed it's moving at, the layer lines become thin and leave gaps. It's more apparent in this picture: https://qidi3d.com/cdn/shop/articles&#x2

I was looking at buying a house with big transmission lines crossing over the property. It was a misty not-quite-raining day when I went to look at it, and you could hear the lines crackling and humming the whole time you were outside. I fi

You don't have to have a server, workstation motherboards support lots of memory channels. I was lucky to buy a lot of RAM before prices skyrocketed. I knew I wanted to play with this stuff, so I spent what felt like a lot of money at

I think that's a lot better. "Please explain your wrongness" really had me scratching my head. Hopefully they can make improvements to the 3D architecture or find someone who can help.

You're right, it's just additional text that allows it to do thinking / reasoning-like behavior. The big proprietary models hide the real output from the user and instead provide a friendly abridged version, but that's j

I'm at my computer now and I took a second look, and honestly that beige edition is damn good nostalgia bait. I still find it to be an odd direction to go, but it does look very good for what it is.

Retrocomputing Roundtable has talked about the new Commodore company over the course of a couple episodes, and I thought they brought up a good point about “what is it that people actually want from Commodore,” and the best answer they came
