A couple of cities have been doing this as well. Vancouver Canada has lidar point clouds covering the entire city, going back to 2013. [0] https://opendata.vancouver.ca/explore/dataset/lidar-2022/inf... [1]

Potentially dumb question: wouldn't the existence of a global magnetic field already imply the presence of a global electric field? Or is this discovery a separate unrelated electric field?

I've no plans for it myself, but that sounds like an interesting project! It should be fairly easy to hack together. The actual logic itself is just a few dozen lines of glue code around a single HTTP POST request.

Already exists :) Set the `local_uri` setting in the configuration (`llm2sh --setup`), and either pass `-m local` on the CLI or set `"default_model": "local"` in the config. PRs are always welcome.

Were you there for fun, or research? What made you decide to visit in person? From what I can tell, Mauritania is not particularly tourist-friendly. It has an active "Reconsider Travel" advisory with the US State Dept, and there w

I'm starting to see some packages break due to not pinning 1.x in their dependencies. `pip install numpy==1.*` is a quick and hacky way to work around those issues until the ecosystem catches up.

It's a petition early on in the case, so it just needs to be based upon "information and belief". The fact-finding step of the multi-year process has yet to begin, but lawyers need to present the best plausible case possible

Thanks, I hate it. * I love the idea, and I'm interested to see more progress in this direction. * I'm not a huge fan of the syntax - for me, the commands are the star of the show, while the async/await is a glue. This syntax

Alternatively, the technique used for finding plane crashes has a 99% recall and we're just happening to talk about the 1% that slipped through. Survivorship bias is not out of the question here.

They're even more terrified of torch or another framework take up the industry. As ML is a research-heavy space, getting ML researchers to use your platform has benefits.

True, yet many games are effectively single-threaded anyways. The bigger problem is memory capacity and bandwidth, but I suspect folks will eventually figure out some sort of QoS setup to let the system crunch LLMs using otherwise unused&#x

It's worth noting that the 4bit quants can run on cpu at ~reading speed, which should unlock many use cases - especially if we can precompute some of the results async.

More cache never hurts. I'd imagine there were GPU perf gaps, though they were hard to distinguish from CPU-based performance hits. The most notable issues were random latency spikes caused by the multiple layers of hypervisors, which

Back when I ran Windows in a KVM VM for gaming, a lot of anti-cheat systems didn't take kindly to running in a virtualized environment. Turning on HyperV to go KVM->HyperV->Windows effectively 'laundered' my VM signatur

As much as we may like/hate the entities involved in this dispute, net neutrality is a serious topic and we shouldn't be encouraging actions like this.

Got it! That's great to hear. It'd be great to explicitly clarify that in the README :) Out of curiosity: Have you considered alternative licenses like SSPL or the Elastic license, which make a clear(er) delineation between whitel

I would love to begin using this system, but the licensing is giving me serious pause. While most of the software is under the AGPLv3, the Commercial License section of the README [0] implies that the company takes on a fairly broad inter

One balance I've yet to find is how to handle the split between code-in-database (workflows stored in a database and edited via web IDE) vs code-in-git (workflows checked into the repo and only changed via the normal development+peer-r
