4 months of progress. Qwen 3.8 Max is, depending on who you ask, what you're doing, standard disclaimers, really really close to Opus 4.8. That is a huge dump from 3.6 Max. Presumably improvements in their training librar(y/ies),

Economists keep track of the number of "unbanked" people. At the lower end of the spectrum the % of "unbanked" individuals is quite high and they live almost exclusively in an all-cash economy. Particularly in immigrant

I think most everyone already has a curated training library; Web scraping exists but I don't think anyone is still using it as a primary information vector

In my experience I am getting 23-24 t/s output with dflash off, and it craters to ~9 t/s with it on, miss rate exceeding 50%. And I'm using the same device as stated on their model page/card. We might need to wait for th

The vessel was at least 100 miles from shore, the USCG did in fact label it a non-emergency. This is "radio shore for your buddy to zoom out with 50 gallons of diesel in a zodiac" territory. CHP doesn't send out an ambulance

This comes up in conversation at office events, every woman in our office always agrees they will choose waymo over uber every time, due to the lack of (presumably male) driver.

I don't have to listen to the driver argue with his girlfriend across the entire span of the bay bridge, I don't have to worry the uber reeks of week (or worse, cigarette) smell on the way to an interview etc etc. Given the choice

This is on my list to evaluate, I absolutely do not want to download 9gb of supply chain risk into prod every time we upgrade, when I can compile 70mb of binary. We run vLLM in a container with hardware passthrough for gitops, having the en

All of us with a 96gb rtx 6000 would love to see a 70b moe. Maybe they are waiting for OpenAI and Anthropic to IPO so they can short their stock and release. Local LLM is going to get very interesting in the next 2 years.

It seems like he's saying to use open source software, and firefox is one of those options. Since it's open source, you "own" it soup to nuts, thus sovereign.

So the US has 25 weeks, or 6 months of oil reserves left. One thing to note is that most jet fuel for europe comes from persian gulf oil. The US has been supplying Europe with jet fuel (at the cost of American gasoline) since the beginning

I just gave you the ROI on a retail blackwell card, the math checks out, particularly on overpriced Haiku and Sonnet, what do you mean by "you're just fighting economies of scale if you're going trying to beat a datacenter on

Seems like they're working to destroy the local LLM argument. Right now Haiku is $1/$5 in/out. You can grind out $12,000 worth of haiku (or arguably, sonnet) class tokens in about 5 months on a Blackwell RTX 6000 96GB especia

As long as it was the kind I could buy spare parts for, sure. And it wasn't connected to the internet. Not having cleaning staff in the house periodically would be a huge quality of life improvement.

I suspect in 5 years everyone will have the equivalent of a 512gb mac mini running a 500b class open weight model for 98% of their tasks, shelling out to openai/anthropic for the other 2%. People who need higher end models will own the

I've had 2b models give a plausible Paris vacation itinerary. A tools-capable 12b and especially 30b model from 2026 is certainly capable of producing passable results. I was demonstrating the qwen 3.6 27b model I stood up last week to

The big problem with US AI is that they deprecate their models after like a year. If I have a routine business process that works with GPT 9.9 and then next year they release GPT10 and 9.9 isn't available anymore, I really do not want

When I got married our food waste probably tripled. My food waste as a single guy was significantly less than married. When I had kids it probably tripled again. Much like a horse to water, you cannot explain to a 3 year old that if they do

When my wife finally upgraded her iphone to one that uses the usb-c, finally the last non-usb-c device in the house was gone. It has drastically simplified our lives. Each car only has a single usb-c cable now and that's enough for lon

You are not going to get the guy at 7-11 or the cashier at Target who just bought a PS5 for her son to boycott watching movies on it. Boycotts only work if it is demonstrably going to make their life worse if they don't. Losing access

The other big problem is, group notifications went from 100% success rate, to nearly 0%. I bought a budget model sainsmart/genmitsu cnc thing to goof around with, as a hobby/assist other hobbies, and 98% of their user community is

It means a lot more if you held one of these in your hands new before you were old enough to drive (or, in my case, read about it in nintendo power, but only saw it behind the glass case at Target)
