I don't know if the splat is exactly the same, but the playcanvas engine has no false transparency on this one: https://superspl.at/scene/7e4e9bcb that splat is actually of fairly high quality, so unless this is a

Both use LPDDR5x, they're not shipping LPDDR6 (yet).

Looks neat! I'd love for it to feed the MIDI notes back into my player piano instead of playing out of my iPhone's (comparatively tinny) speakers though.

The central point of this app is to determine proximity of two devices. That's not possible today in a cross-platform way using web apps.

For modern systems, stack buffer overflow bugs haven't been great to exploit for a while. You need at least a stack cookie leak and on Apple Silicon the return addresses are MACed so overwriting them is a fools errand (2^-16 chance of

Yep! 60t/s on the 8 bit MLX on an M4 Pro with 64GB of RAM.

There's MLX versions of the model, so yes. LM Studio hasn't updated their mlx-lm runtime yet though, you'll get an exception. But if you're OK running it without a UI wrapper, mlx_lm==0.30.0 will serve you fine.

It means more surface (both from extensions themselves and the loader code), relaxation of things like KTRR/CTRR (you now need to add executable EL1 pages at runtime), plus the potential for signing keys to leak (Finding enterprise sig

I do vulnerability research. Those things would do the exact opposite of what you're aiming for. They'd be received with glee by mercenary spyware companies, _especially_ being able to load things into higher levels of privilege.

You're confusing your opinion of the company with the perception by the general public. Apple's definitely not perceived as 'an office appliance company' by your average person. It's considered a high-end luxury bra

It'd run on a 5090 with 32GB of VRAM at fp8 quantization which is generally a very acceptable size/quality trade-off. (I run GLM-4.5-Air at 3b quantization!) The transformer architecture also lends itself quite well to having diff

From what I've been reading the inference workload tends to ebb and flow throughout the day with much lower loads overnight than at for example 10AM PT/1PM ET. I understand companies fill that gap with training (because an idle GP

I have some inside knowledge here. KPP was released around the time KTRR on A11 was implemented to have some small amount of parity on <A11 SoCs. I vaguely remember the edict came down from high that such a parity should exist, and it wa

This isn't a transformer, it's a diffusion model. You can't split diffusion models across compute nodes.

Just from my limited experience: Barton Springs in Austin is always brimming with people and Shiner Bock makes a frequent appearance. Dolores Park in SF never has a dull moment and you can buy shrooms or edibles from vendors walking around.

Something is lost as well if you do 'research' by just asking an LLM. On the path to finding your answer in the encyclopedia or academic papers, etc. you discover so many things you weren't specifically looking for. Even if y

Yep. Though if you don't place any of them - depending on how technical you want to get - that's a DE0.

I can't comment on MCP use specifically but I can comment on using an LLM while reversing. I use a local instance of whatever ends up being SOTA for local reasoning LLMs at 30B-70B params quantized to 4-6b. I feed it decompiled code to

I'm actually very surprised this happened. I've dis- and reassembled dozens of iPhones (from the iPhone 4 all the way up to the iPhone 16) and I've never torn a single flex cable. You just have to be careful not to pull on th

Are you saying Nvidia could spin up their own chip fabs in short order?

I can't comment on AMD or Intel but Apple Silicon definitely uses ECC for at least the system level cache. On top of that it performs cache healing (swapping out bad lines for spares) on every cache level every time the system boots.
