Claude Opus 4.5 has been a big step up for me personally, and I used to think Sonnet 3.5 was good. It is an amazing deal at $20. Just yesterday, it helped me parse out and understand a research paper - complete with step-by-step examples

My name is on the blue plaque. I (and many others) spent countless hours on these two vehicles. Many of us are now working 12-hour shifts performing initial operations tasks. The majority of us didn't know about the plaques until after

I have personally experienced this. I went to a concert in NY while living in the midwest. I was a pretty broke grad-student at the time and hence opted not to get a hotel for the night before the return flight. The concert ended late and w

Before buying the Framework, I used a MacBook Pro for ~11 years. I am perfectly comfortable with the command-line and ssh into a Linux VM every day at work (windows laptop). I use a tmux+neovim setup that mostly works without any problems (

I bought a Framework 13 when it first came out, with exactly this hope. I gave up after about one month of madness and ordered an M1 Max Macbook Pro. I also installed Windows on the Framework with WSL. Now it gets used very rarely (like for

Magnetic field drops off by an inverse-cubed law (as opposed to inverse-squared for RF). So it would be a lot more impractical to cover large volumes.

> tech-illiterate The guy wrote two books on Lisp. Lol. What are you talking about? And why do you need HTTPS to access a static HTML blog which doesn't even have a single form? What are you hoping to hide here?

> Physics for Entertainment by Yakov Perelman I read the same in Malayalam! That book was one of my earliest introductions to practical physics. He deconstructs pretty much all the early "perpetual machine" designs in the book.

Wow! I used to fly out of the Ames airport and earned my PPL there. It turns out that it wasn't always at the same spot. I looked it up and apparently my house was on land that used to be the airport back in the day! My old house is ac

Based on the paper, results, video etc., this is either legit, or a massive fraud. I guess we will know soon enough. If it is real though, this is a massive step up for humanity. The stuff of science fiction.

Someone is probably going to port it to llama.cpp soon.

The speed at which this stuff is developing makes it very hard to keep up and contribute in a meaningful way. Especially when you have a separate full time job.

This is what happens when running inference on a neural network: Input (list of numbers) -> (Bunch of math operations) with (other numbers) -> Output (also a list of numbers) This applies whether you are talking about image classifica

It uses "ggml", a tensor library written in C to do the math. The models weights are converted to a format that can be used by GGML. The higher level structure of the model is created in Rust be leveraging ggml data structures and

Stable Diffusion runs pretty fast on Apple Silicon. Not sure if that uses the GPU though. I think one reason in this particular case may be the 4-bit quantization.

I am working on https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/issues/77 to "librarify" the code a bit. I eventually did want to Rewrite It In Rust™, but OP just beat me to it.

This is pretty cool. I got it working in about 5 minutes. Inference of the 7B model is super fast. I don't know enough about prompting plain GPT models though.
