Is there an understanding of what OpenAI intends to do with that memory? Surely they need GPU capacity and would need memory for those GPUs but OpenAI doesn't build GPUs or any hardware, right? So did they pay to keep the supply locked

Could you say more about the differences between Aider and OpenCode? I briefly dabbled with Aider some months back but never got any real work done with it. Without installing each one of these new tools I'm having trouble grokking wha

If Python has a "very weak ORM situation", what is it about the TS ORM scene that makes it stronger by comparison? Is there one library in particular that stands out?

Thanks, that’s good advice I have a fire tablet that I’ve tried that with, but for various reasons I prefer to have Linux on all the things. As a long time Android phone user Android still gives me an irrational ick, non-standard android ev

For sure, I hear you I just want affordable, linux-powered displays in a slim tablet form factor. Performance and battery life are not a priority for my use case Unfortunately I feel anything sold as a tablet comes with the assumption that

Thanks, yeah I understand their poor performance and energy efficiency for use in a tablet for content consumption or gaming. And I am guessing that a part of the reason for a lack of any such RaspPi tablets is that marketing such a tablet

I it would be great if some company put these into a small 7in tablet. Thats a very underserved form factor in the maker space.

Thanks Was it being closed weight obvious to you from the article? Trying to understand why I was confused. Had not seen the "Flash" designation before Also 30B models can beat a semi-recent 235B with just some additional training

I dont think the Flash model discussed in the article is 30B Their benchmark table shows it beating Qwen3-235B-A22B Does "Flash" in the name of a Qwen model indicate a model-as-a-service and not open weights?

The link[1] at the top of their article to HuggingFace goes to some models named Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B that were last updated in September. None of them have "Flash" in the name. The benchmark table shows this Flash model beating the

I see that their HuggingFace link goes to some Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B models that show a last updated date of September The benchmark table in their article shows Qwen3-Omni-Flash-2025-12-01 (and the previous Flash) as beating Qwen3-235B-A22B.

Site says it runs Linux Does anyone have insights on how compatible that hardware might be? Or how it might compare to something like a Pinetab? For some years I have been looking for a low cost tablet with good Linux support for use in hom

I haven’t used Jupyter in a few years. Wondering what is the current standard practice of starting a new Jupyter project. Do users typically have one system-wide Jupyter install that gets reused for each data analysis project that then hav

Maybe you know this but Bazzite works perfectly well as a standard Linux desktop operating system. It comes with a non-gaming desktop environment and can be setup to boot directly into that desktop environment. It just defaults to the steam

In my area we've had the Spotted lanternfly for more than 5 years now, maybe closer to 10. In the first year or two they could be seen in huge numbers. Since then they've waned off considerably. Like last year I don't recall

I wonder, does Asia and Europe have nearly as many problems with North American invasive plants / pests / diseases as North America does with its non-natives? Being from the US, I don't recall any such stories in the news.

The article mentions that this Skydweller UAS completed a 73 hour flight. Back in 2022 there was a solar powered Airbus Zephyr drone that was tested over the Southwestern US with a flight time of 64 DAYS. I wonder how this new drone is dif

How is this promoted as a "local UI" if it gets the UI from a remote URL? Maybe the closed source UI is downloaded upon first execution for installation and then cached locally? Or is this a web app that loads from the remote URL

Maybe Google is paying them to self-sabotage?

Is Google paying Mozilla to sabotage themselves? Stay in business, so monopoly arguments can be brushed aside. But slowly erode privacy on the internet. And slowly lose user base.

their "AI" marketing page[1] pretty clearly implies that compute is offloaded I think that answers most of my questions. I am also not in robotics, so this demo does seem quite impressive to me but I think they could hav

The demo is quite interesting but I am mostly intrigued by the claim that it is running totally local to each robot. It seems to use some agentic decision making but the article doesn't touch on that. What possible combo of model types

I have yet to use one, but have you heard of the Pinenote? Its a Debian Linux based e-ink tablet. It doesn’t look particularly premium, but it’s not android. There is a pressure sensitive stylus that comes with it as well. https:/&#x2

I appreciate you sharing this. However are you not concerned that Google might flag your accounts as being somehow fraudulent? And then get locked out of your digital identity? Maybe I am too reliant on my gmail account.

I find the discussions on Metabunk.org helpful with news stories like this. For example here is a clip that a Fox News host recorded. Presented as a drone, but is it not clearly just an airplane filmed flying directly overhead? https:&#x2F
