I see. Did you see any intelligence degradation between FP8 and NVFP4 for 3.6 27B? You're using vLLM, right?

Why not just run FP8 on vLLM with that much vRAM? It's plenty fast.

This looks very cool! I maintain a FreeCAD workbench for 3d model version control[0], and it currently uses git as the VCS, simply because that's what I was already using. Thinking long-term, I see it eventually morphing into a broader

I use Google Maps on Graphene. It works perfectly. You still get the benefits of the rest of the phone being degoogled. Just allow it to access your location only when you're actively using the app. When it's closed, it's clo

I don't understand why no labs create dedicated models per industry/expert. E.g. physics, electronics, chemistry, etc. Each model would be much smaller and better suitable for running locally. Everyone is trying to cram everything

It's cool seeing all the engineering that goes into optimizing performance of diffs. I'm working on a FreeCAD workbench that generates diffs on CAD model trees[0], and although my bottlenecks are a bit different, I can still imple

FreeCAD is really the only serious contender for CAD on Linux. I love how everything is hackable via Python APIs. Every release seems to fix more and more UX issues. I have very high hopes for it to eventually start attracting more commerci

I know what it's like growing up in a religious atmosphere. Since you've been trained to think inside the box, you realize the box is nonsense. The problem is thinking that the only valid alternative is that there is no creator an

There is a new update on HF: > Jan 21 update: llama.cpp fixed a bug that caused looping and poor outputs. We updated the GGUFs - please re-download the model for much better outputs.

What hardware can you buy for $5k to be able to run K2? That's a huge model.

OTOH I installed it on my elderly mother's computer, and she said that it did everything that MS Office could do. She's perfectly happy with it.

Like others have mentioned, Blender has become quite the successful open-source story. They used to be riddled with bugs and UX issues, much like FreeCAD was. Yesterday FreeCAD released v1 of their software, and they seem to be on the same

I'm not sure, I've never used it. But I think the issue is that the number of MCUs that support micropython is very small.

by eblanshey 2y ago
I would think the portability of, say, a Python application running on Linux is a nice benefit. Try switching from one MCU to a totally different one and you may have to start from scratch (e.g. try going from Microchip to STM.) Can you des

So Linux now officially support RTOS capabilities, without patches, which is pretty cool. I wonder, realistically, how many applications that were originally designed to use microcontrollers for real-time purposes, can be migrated to use Li

I'd buy a framework laptop just for that.

An old-time hang glider pilot has been keeping his website up-to-date since the very early 2000s, complete with rotating gifs, hidden SEO keywords, index pages, photo albums, and more goodies!

Wow, the state of self-hosted photo libraries has gotten way better since I last settled on Photoprism a few years ago. Both Memories and Immich seem very polished. The timeline features look great. I may need to play around with these.

Most mobile bank websites have 100% functionality already, including depositing checks. The bank app isn't needed.

Obsidian has a book search plugin that people use to create a library of notes: https://github.com/anpigon/obsidian-book-search-plugin I recently came across it in a youtube video but haven't used it myself. Edit:

Drop these quick notes into a folder (can be automated with Templater). Create another note that uses the DataView plugin to show you a table of all the files in this folder sorted by the creation date.

I'm looking at the frontend source code, and the Svelte components look almost the same as VueJS single file components using the composition API. Can someone who has used both comment on both their pros/cons?
