at first this looked like something one could run on CPU with 64GB RAM with a 2-3 bit quant, at possibly half the speed of 3.6 35B-A3B, however the 50B ngram sidecar makes it impossible. and oddly, unsloth's page lists the ngrams as 50

impressive work. but a GGUF release + (ik_)llama.cpp PR would be appreciated since not everybody has a mac.

pretty impressive model for its size, if the benchmarks can be trusted.

hopefully for us mere mortals without $4k+ hardware a 35B MOE model will be released. or a new prism ternary bonsai model based on this one.

memcpy and friends have been living peacefully in string.h since 1989, but alejandro colomar wants to move them to memory.h. since he's overtaken the maintainance of the linux manpages project, his unilateral moves to change libc inter

this use of musl's mallocng actually lead to the discovery of a kernel bug, thanks to its hardening. without it, this might have gone unnoticed for months, silently corrupting memory in the meantime.

good article, killed by fancy animations driving all my cores to 100% cpu and fans to full noise-level, like a cryptominer. closed for that reason.

this article is full of missing text like this: " of Opus at of the cost, the speed, points over oneshot Flash." is it just me or is that page using some brand new js feature or chromium-only hack?

these LFM 2.5 models are crazy fast. the (biggest in series) 8B-A1B model produces 35-40 t/s on an aged 6-core CPU using llama.cpp. it's my go-to model for whenever i need fast local inference. it's also pretty good at toolca

i tried the Q4_K_M model form unsloth with your Q4_K_M drafter, but the required memory to load everything is 72GB. odd. otoh i could load Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Claude-4.7-Opus-Reasoning-Distilled.IQ4_XS.gguf and it requires just ~18 GB: ~/i

how ironic that a site called "reclaim the net" cowers behind The Great Clownflare Firewall, which blocks any alternative browsers (like palemoon) and anyone using a proxy. so i can't even read what they have to say.
