Similar, but slightly different story for me. I ended up buying it as an enthusiast ‘Apple-grade’ product where UX was there to do something I would be able to do on my own. Then they got high on their own supply and started to believe they

A problem I had with CityMapper is that at the time I last used it, it used the distance units of the city you’re in, with no ability to change it. For example, if you’re in New York, the distances will be in feet, and feet only. Since I al

Turkish also retains the hard C in some forms, the city of Kayseri in Asia Minor is also from Caesarea. However some of that has been eradicated by the more recent influence of French. An example of that is Julius Caesar, which is Jül Sezar

I’m the maintainer of this project. While it is good to see it posted here, I should note that Aether is on a hiatus for now. I might eventually get back to it, and I’ve been working on it since 2013 so it is a long lived work for me, but I

Nothing. It's technology for the love of it. I'm sure there are potential uses but training your own LLM would probably be more meaningfully useful versus running someone else's trained model, which is what this is.

I'm following the instructions on the post from the original owner of the repository involved here. It's at https://til.simonwillison.net/llms/llama-7b-m2 and it is much simpler. (no affiliation with author)

IIRC Based on the latest numbers 70+% of Turks do hold their savings in foreign currency. So it’s accessible and widely used. It’s probably one of the reasons Turkey is weathering the storm better than expected, though it’s still a pretty b

I have a 32Gb M1 Pro as a work laptop and connecting a retina 4K external display is not a fun experience for me either. It was very surprising to see it fail to maintain 60fps in the OS’ own animations.

Here’s something better I’ve found to improve on it: you can get a $30 massage gun from Amazon with one of those round soft heads, gently put it to the back of your head where doing the manual exercise above hits with your fingers and run i

Same in Turkey, and I presume through most of continental Europe. Most stop signs were removed in late 90s and converted into either implicit yields (i.e. nothing, ‘don’t be stupid’ rule) or traffic lights. Right now they’re trialling allow

Zoom does have product merits of its own, for example, I have hearing loss and uniquely sensitive to voice quality — Zoom has by far the best sound quality across all apps I tried. It remains to be seen if these kinds of advantages will mak

I'm very confused, the article says: 'The MTA had good reason to believe the program would succeed. Just a few years prior, it had dropped more than 1,000 Redbird trains in the ocean. They remain on the ocean floor to this day, i

I've noticed that the court documents issued by civil courts in Turkey have electronic signatures with signed hashes for each of the signatories (judge, clerk and all else) in every document. To make people not freak out, they seem to

Hi Kyle, thanks for responding to criticism. I think you might have slightly misunderstood my main objection and comment. Your machinery is all fine and well but it requires negotiation, murky legal definitions (even if it is clearer than t

Ah, my apologies, it wasn't obvious from the second site how to get to the actual paper. I think this is fair to say there are ways that attempt to be objective in defining what is fair licensing cost, but I'd have liked to see on

I do not think rights in discrimination suits ever expire, for reasons you have cited exactly — the discriminated are usually in a disadvantaged position, don’t have the resources, time or the willingness. If an attorney told you your right

You should contact Department of Justice’s Civil Rights division. If what you say is true and you have this on paper, you should be able to get some actual justice on this. You can start filing a report here: https://civilrights.
