What to trust? Closed hardware/software that goes to trash if something goes wrong, or opensource that you can send an agent to debug if there are issues? I'm not trying to diminish JetKVM's product - for $35 its a steal if y

it is, unless it set to xhigh - it really likes generating tons of tokens for its thinking. unfortunately, for decently reliable coding results you want it on xhigh ...

There was a study specifically related to Qwen3.8 27B that showed that kv cache quantization has almost no impact on this model all the way to q4: https://arxiv.org/html/2609.04098

by skolos 8d ago
On many models that I tested in past context quantization had very bad effect on model performance. However qwen3.8 27b is different. I'm now running NVFP4 quantized both weight and cache on my RTX5090 and getting excellent results: 26

why so many people add 'please' when asking machine to do something? Was there actually research that when you SCREAM or curse it follows your instructions better? P.S. Although my wife insists that I should stay polite in case AI

Interesting - in my setup (llama.cpp rtx5090 qwen-3.6 27b) prompt processing with mtp is almost half vs non mtp. Sounds like I need to investigate what is wrong.

There was lots of discussion within Russian and Ukrainian war analytics that nukes (at least tactical) are useless in this war for the following reasons: - they would not change much on battlefield - there is no large concentrations that yo

It sounds more like market based allocation than gameification.

I'd say adding another 16Gb gpu would be worth it - you'd be able to run larger model/larger context all within gpu's. It would give you more options of what you can run fast. Your current model probably doesn't run

How many times did you try? Same model running multiple times can produce both very good and very bad results. In my benchmark even 10 runs often not enough to tell for sure if one model is better than another.

I like Mathematica and use it regularly. But I did not see any benefits of using it over python as a tool that Claude Code can use. Every script it produced in wolfram was slower with worse answers than python. Wolfram people are really try

Looking at examples I see: ``` c = Sector(radius, start = 180°, end = 270°).translate(y = radius); ``` Programming language that requires (maybe it does not require, but then example is not good) to type degrees. Or maybe it is not designed

They did operate on a "continuous refresh" basis. However, it mostly stopped for almost 2 years now. Other than HW4 I don't think anything else is different between current models and their iterations 2 years ago. Edit: mostl

Last two years used Tesla prices were higher than new ones. You need to wait up to a year to get new Tesla though. So you could actually make some money while driving newest versions of cars.

It does work: NIO does it (they have 700 battery swap stations already). CATL also announced that they will produce swappable car batteries. I, myself, don't see how this can be more competitive than superchargers. But I do see that so

How Russian people would know about this? You are underestimating efficiency of Russian propaganda machine. Russian government does not shy away from inflicting damage onto Russian people and pointing finger to the West.
