You could think of it as a more efficient indexing format for data the agent has access to. It’s badly needed as a better representation or pointer map would improve recall time and comprehensiveness dramatically without having to invest fu

Oops. I took your comment at face value. Sorry!

Upvoting for visibility, not because I agree. This is really disingenuous, and quite a bad idea overall. I’d make a joke about there not being a word for the reverse of plagiarism, except there is one: lying.

I went to the site and listened to the track. Sounds nice! But not having played the game I am lacking context. What about the sound is so nice / interesting / soothing that drives you to these lengths? What about it do you like?

Definitely an invasion of privacy. I can’t visit this website in good faith. It should be taken down. The point is valuable, and the mission is important, but the ends do not justify the means. If this must be shared, at least use static pi

$500k is a vast overestimation. For massive concurrency at FP8 or even BF16 maybe. NVFP4 at reasonable speeds (~120 tok/s) and concurrency is possible at a $80/90k figure with today's prices, maybe even less. That buys you 6

It is insane that we are comparing locally-hostable models to leading cloud providers, it is wild to me that this article even exists. We have come a long way, and very clearly have a long way yet to go.

I don’t foresee development timelines speeding up but I am seeing entire applications being built by one developer instead of four over the same timeframe. If anything communication overhead is reduced and velocity and quality are up, too.

It's a home desktop form-factor with 8x48gb DDR5 6800, 9985WX, a whole lotta fans and a 1600W PSU. Max-Qs are the only card you can fit four of into this rig without PCIe extenders or cooking themselves, unless you go water cooled (whi

I have been thinking about this a lot. I just bought a rather expensive rig for local inference for a home agent (powered by four RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Max-Qs). As I contemplate handing it more and more of the keys to my life, I grow incre

I just learned I have this as well (not as severe). Quercitin helped me. I am taking I think 1600mg (with bromelain) per day. How much was she taking, and what is the mast cell stabilizer that helped, if you don't mind my asking? I&#x2

Go off and run a comparison of Qwen 3.6 27B and GLM 5.1 GGUF ( https://huggingface.co/ubergarm/GLM-5.1-GGUF ) at IQ2_KL 261.988 GiB (2.985 BPW) and let me know if you learn anything. Or maybe just compare Hermes vs OpenC

This is patently false. I work with and on AI every day at multiple levels of the stack, and every day I'm learning massive new swathes of information. I'm honestly shocked how deep the field goes and how much more effective you c

If it wasn’t a learning opportunity to build those things, that was the waste. You can learn from an AI far more easily than from a book — only now it’s far more easy not to and many people unconsciously choose that route.

It seems like the author is overindexing on useful and underindexing on wonderful. He clearly had fun building these products — and in hindsight is disavowing them because they didn’t generate income? An oddly capitalist view of play. Some

Why can’t they continue to do so? If anything an underlying truth about humanity is being exposed: we take the easy way out far more often than we’d like to admit. Perhaps, this truth being made explicit is a wakeup call that will teach us

Though I deeply agree with this sentiment, the author fails to address that there can be multiple goals to an action. And writing can be for art or communication or both but not always both, and removing the art from communication doesn’t d

This resonates with me as well. For more reasons than one: with the rise of AI (Mythos is but a pale forerunner) digital security — and by extension, digital privacy — has ceased to exist. The bomber will always win. The only way to win is

This is a comically self-absorbed perspective. Why are people making things with Claude Code if not because they’re motivated?
