I posted this elsewhere, but Unsloth says the 27B model should run in 18GB. That leaves little RAM for other tasks, but it depends on your tolerance for slowness I suppose. I haven’t tried it in 24GB so report back if you do. https:/&

I’m using it on a 48GB machine and it causes some lag, so it might be worse on 24, but it should run. Unsloth recommends 18GB of RAM for Qwen3.6-27B (for their version of the model). https://unsloth.ai/docs/models/

This happened to me as well—thankfully not my personal account that I use for work, but the organization associated with an open source project I worked on was suspended. It similarly took 2 months for GitHub to restore the organization. &g

React gets blamed for this because the error handling is bad and the UX is confusing. But the issue with GitHub’s frontend is that the backend is dropping requests. When you click a button on GitHub and the loader gets stuck that’s because

I’ve just read the two functions there by that footnote, `reaching_copies_meet`. I have so much code review feedback just on code style, before we even get into functionality. And it’s like 20 lines. (The function shouldn’t return an error

I think that’s the right attitude for technical mistakes. But this is the engineering equivalent of fraud. Especially given that the author then went in and removed the TODO commits.

One key thing to understand about TigerBeetle is that it's a file-system-backed database. Static allocation means they limit the number of resources in memory at once (number of connections, number of records that can be returned fro

You’re defending a weaker system than the actual system. The system you’re defending is a list of flagged plate numbers and a way of comparing seen plates against that list, and a way of reporting matches to the local police. The actual sys

I also found the Zulip UX to be really confusing at first. The issue is messages show up in multiple places which is unintuitive for someone with a spacial brain like me. What I do (because I use Zulip every day) is read messages only in th

I seem to remember seeing this a week or two ago, and it was very obviously AI generated. (For those unfamiliar with Zig, AI is awful at generating Zig code: small sample dataset and the language updates faster than the models.) Reading it

Three years ago I was very skeptical of Ladybird. But two things have changed. First, they have funding for 8 full time engineers, which I definitely wasn’t expecting. Second, it’s been three years. So given that, I am more optimistic. Ther
