Nice, which model quantization is this? Is it on huggingface?

I leave it running at night. No danger of burning my token subscriptions and it has hours and hours to run slowly with a manager like: github.com/kunchenguid/gnhf

Yes, 15-30 t/sec is pretty slow for local models so I recommend running local LLM tasks overnight where (vs paid plans) there isn't a risk of chewing through your token budget from a rogue loop or sub-agent. Even if it takes hours

You are mistaken. I'm running Qwen 3.7 28B 4bit (MLX) with a 200k context window and everything total is 32GB RSS. Is this the best? No. That's why I said the sweet spot. Getting from 16GB macs to 32GB is perhaps possible. Jumping

If I had to pick a product, I'd say an affordable 32GB mac would be the sweet spot for running local models that function well like Qwen 3.8. It's true, most people don't run models, but being the default platform for running

103KB is the actual source code. You should not be reading or debugging the minimized or gzip/transport bytes.

Htmx 4.0 is over 100kb / 2,000 lines of code. Isn't there a way to slim this down some? I mean, isn't the basic idea just a couple lines of code? I remember AJAX 2.0 or whatever loaders that were only 1-5kb wrappers around XH

Some of us do. In 2011 Thailand floods that destroyed major HDD manufacturing capacity and drives were really expensive. It's Deja vu for NVMe and SSD drives this time as prices are way up there.

Well, I think the cybertruck was announced at least a year or two before they shipped. A month wait is one thing, but giving people literal years to think about and find flaws with your product is a really bad move.

Due to the fact that fasthttp is not net/http compatible it is due to the conversion being required from a https://pkg.go.dev/net/http#Handler . It was included for information purposes as I though someone would be

I'm a tech worker. I'm given a promotion for adding invasive features based on "insights". I'm incentivized to create something patent-able to restrict competition. I'm rewarded for more detailed metrics to rev

Watching time compress as you age is indeed illuminating. Another thing is arguments you have as a child with an adult. It's not that kids are always "technically" wrong when they argue their cases or reasons for things - It&

FYI, Thunderbolt 3 NVMe enclosures will be 10Gbps and 4 will be 40Gbps which is a big difference (and you'll notice it in the pricing as well)

Are commercial/state hospitals really the only form of healthcare you're aware of?

There is security that protects users and then there is security theater that provides litigation protection for the company. Sometimes overlapping, but they are not the same thing.

I can't imagine why people are looking into alternative healthcare

You know, all those people making new n64, playstation, and gameboy titles might be onto something. Apart from steam, I don't think I've heard anything but bad news from modern consoles.

Moving away from the technical solution space - I'm curious, have their been any games (or communities) with a high entry fee/deposit (e.g. $500 USD) to join kept in escrow and lost in the event you're discovered to be cheati

Redis really is a great piece of software. Low memory, high-performance, feature-rich, and stable. Really hard to beat it for places where you want a durable cache even if technically you can use something else.

I'm really looking forward to the next generation of languages. Not only are the old 90's languages like Java, PHP, and JavaScript now actually doing things correctly. The new languages like Zig, Go, Swift and Rust continue to fig

What is the speed on responses? (t/s) The full 128GB is surely helpful in keeping browsers, editors and other things running since even 20-35GB models + k/v caches can eat up a lot of the core 64GB in my experience.

Considering the decade of poor results from doing anything other than music, weather and alarms I think we've all learned to avoid using them for anything else.

Honestly, we're at a point where AI can write better software than some devs and answer medical questions with more knowledge than some doctors. Likewise, AI is oblivious to it's own mistakes, much like said professionals can be a
