Llama 3 8B Instruct quantized with GPTQ to fit in 10gb vRAM
Hey HN!

We've had lots of success using quantized LLMs for inference speed and cost because you can fit them on smaller GPUs (Nvidia T4, Nvidia K80, RTX 4070, etc). There's no need for everyone to quantize - we quantized Llama 3 8b Instruct to 8 bits using GPTQ and figured we'd share it with the community. Excited to see what everyone does with it!
Thanks, not really a blogger. I should really, since I have tried to pass down my experience or mentor, but unfortunately, a lot of people younger than myself, were intrigued but went on to chase safer and more lucrative salaried work. In Macau for instance, the government subsidizes the citizen residents with an annual stipend, free transportation, and medical care. One of my trainees after a couple of years left to take a government office job with benefits, and collect his $1k+ USD annual stipend. He remarked how much he learned, and how exciting it was to overcome his fear of being underwater, and how the new job would not really challenge him. But he still left it all behind. My older son picked up some of my eclectic background but has recently taken a tech job in software engineering. I am developing a protable, power dense, novel wirerope hoist with an old friend, and I am hoping it takes off and I can drag him into the business. There he can exercise many skills and still program. We are going with Ada/SPARK2014 for the high-integrity, safety-critical aspects. Rust hasn't standardized yet and doesn't have the verification tools yet, but it's heading that way. Maybe in 5 to 10 more years it will have a legacy in this field to compete.
Sure but what calibre of issues should you expect? Surely not faulty pedals causing the vehicle to accelerate.
A few years ago, Nissan had a recall because a tech had swapped torque drivers, so two parts were getting the wrong torque applied.

I'm a little surprised that subtleties like that don't happen more often, tbh. Factories are amazingly well controlled environments. Then again, why wouldn't a part like this be staked?
I suppose it could be hallucinations about itself.

I suppose it's perfectly fair for large language models not necessarily to know these things, but as far as manual fine tuning, I think it would be reasonable to build models that are capable of answering questions about which model they are, their training date, their number of training parameters, and how they are different from other models, etc. Seems like it would be helpful for it to know and not have to try to do its best guess and potentially hallucinate. Although in my experience Llama 3 seemed to know what it was, but generally speaking it seems like this is not necessarily always the case.

This isn’t true at all. Many products have very high demand in markets they’re not available.
What specifically about it? The problem with using the Alamo as an example is for too long of a damn time Texas was teaching these myths in the public school system. That example feels more systemic than the specifics of the modern TM publication being race baiting trash.
Yes! It's up to the creator of the challenge to make it public or private.
But I don’t think economically it works out going forward to just cover everything and anything.

This is not a thing I ever suggested.

I have no idea why you are inferring that I did.
Diminishing returns. People vastly prefer a partner who can communicate using language over those who don’t, that’s a huge preference for intelligence just not an unlimited one.

Similarly most people want some level of success be that artistic, financial, athletic, etc and success is highly correlated with above average intelligence. 101+ IQ’s might not seem that impressive but over a long time scale that’s an endless treadmill.
I'm drawn by

"Edit-This.Page - Instant Publishing, Zero Friction"

"Easily share content with *zero* need for apps, logins, subscriptions, blog setups, or domain names."

"Seamlessly collaborate using only your web browser - without any sign-up"

but then when I attempt to share, I get

"You must be signed in".

Not Instant Publishing. Not Zero Friction. Not without sign-up.

Sorry to have to say it, but this looks like a scam.

Shame, since it otherwise looks like it could be great.
And you'd be dead wrong by all methods of pedagogy that we find useful!
People learn best with stories and meaning, its why the ancients were able to reproduce stories of almost inhuman length via memory.

Grinding through to build your own understanding when someone can just give you useful meaning and context to connect to your other parts of learning is a core teaching skill, and anyone avoiding that because its "too hard" is doing a deep disservice to their students.
The question is the launch off point for exploration. Just because a question is philosophical in nature does not mean it cannot be answered or that there’s no point in asking.
His salary from Tesla's bank accounts is zero. Companies don't have their market cap in their bank accounts as cash which they use to pay executives.

Also, not like other automakers don't have recalls like this. You just don't hear about it here because... reasons. The legendary name for quality, Toyota had its wheels literally falling off.
Good thing this shit isn't street legal in the EU. They at least have some amount of will to enforce basic car design safety.
Very few people can keep their calm in an unexpected situation. Even people who are trained and supposedly prepared for stressful situations often panic.

>How do you have so little quality control and insight into your manufacturing process that someone on your own production line can introduce a new step to your truck manufacturing process that no one noticed?

That's legal covering the company.

I'd bet this was just a general design flaw.
Mimics it better than many people I see around. Getting on a plane with the ticket in hand; seat 34b and then literally looking at every single number left and right starting row 1 to see if it matches. Sorry but chatgpt is smarter than that. Yet 10000s of people do this every day.

One of very many examples of course where humans exhibit no intelligence at all.

Google needs to properly absorb Android into Chrome before any antitrust measure forces it (along with the Play Store) to be spun out, as would be most healthy for absolutely everyone except the Google ads business.

There has been so much potential squandered with Android over the last decade it is amazing.
I guess it's normally impossible to write a GUI application for mac os without objective-c libraries doing the talking to the OS, but what do I know.

There's a law introduced August last year that basically treats app developer like domain registrants by requiring them to register and provide their real contact info and/or company information. Existing apps were given a grace period until Apr this year. It seems that Meta had 7 months to fill out a pretty trivial form but for whatever reason chose not to do so, which is why this is happening.

I've been blogging for years. SEO has always been done this way. I'm sure if you search for pre 2023 SEO articles, you'll find plenty of information describing exactly what this article talks about. It's a way to build backlinks, increase your sites authority score, and get more traffic.

>because google only started promoting ugc sites since its last update on September 2023.

Yeah, but these aren't new SEO strategies.
The only charitable reading of the comment is that the GP is a purely sequential learner - they've dont have epiphanies and gasps of insight like a partially global learner. The learning style stuff is semi-debunked since usually people dont just fit in one category, but they are classically divided as:

Sequential learners prefer to organize information in a linear, orderly fashion. They learn in logically sequenced steps and work with information in an organized and systematic way.

Global learners prefer to organize information more holistically and in a seemingly random manner without seeing connections. They often appear scattered and disorganised in their thinking yet often arrive at a creative or correct end product.
You're using data from 1944, based on fixed-pay government jobs, to support a claim that private sector software engineering is well-paid, in 2024, due to "IQ gating." The irony is hard to miss.
> The issue shouldn't be present in all trucks, but better to recall all of them to be safe.

There is a video floating around of this issue, and based on that I'd call it an issue in all shipped trucks. While only a couple had it loose from the factory, the fact the two plates are only press fitted and when it slides up there is a perfect nook for it to get stuck in is a huge problem.

If I was a Cybertruck owner I'd inspect it at least every week and schedule the recall work ASAP.

Great question! We thought hard about this and decided that the best way is to split it evenly if everyone loses. So, basically the same outcome as if everyone won. It seems a bit backwards, but this makes sure incentives are as balanced as possible - the creator of the challenge should avoid making the challenge impossible
why google ui is so bad? I can't understand everytime i see a google designed page, i hate it.
Then share your idea like I have with mine. You made multiple examples towards a fire departments and police forces. How else can anyone infer what you mean then? If you don’t want to share then just don’t but it is silly to respond by picking apart my statements alone.
I'm a big fan of PARA method, but I only use it in my note-taking app. I tried to apply it to filesystem, but it didn't work for me. So I went with his philosophy of keeping it simple and what works for you.
The word "lawsuit" is saddled with a lot of baggage. If you remove the baggage, and leave only the essence of "making an accusation with evidence to be decided by a disinterested 3rd party", I fail to see how you can object to them. As I lay out (in some detail) lawsuits are badly broken, and yet its the primary mechanism we get to resolve disputes in the court system. If you have an alternative, I'd like to hear it.

Toyota's wheels have been literally falling off their cars.

https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/24/cars/toyota-bz4x-tundra-recal...

What is their reputation on reliability on here? How many decades have they been making cars compared and how mature is their manufacturing process?

You just don't hear about other carmakers' recalls on here, so everyone makes those assumptions you just did, that Tesla is disproportionately bad with quality issues..
Great idea! What people read influences their minds and steps. You came up with the interesting project.
The whole point of the spoon or fork is to create turbulence. In a clear container, you can even see the turbulence created as the solute dissolves creating mirage (portions of the solution have different densities, refracting light differently), provided you stir slowly enough see it happening.

It doesn’t seem to happen in other companies…
C# and .net platforms matches (or more often even exceed) java in all those categories.

Looking at what big companies are doing is also weak argument, especially since Google literally developed their own language which slots in the same space as Java. Maybe not exactly the same, but pretty close.

Again, if you need compatibility with existing code - that it's a decent argument. But in terms of language itself? No good reason

One of my favourite bits of content written about C++. Highly recommended.
I have something similar with ~/Stuff. ~/Stuff contains a folder per month, and ~/CurrentStuff links to the current folder. From there I have a simple shell-function `mkstuff` to create a folder ~/CurrentStuff/$DAY-"$1".

Naturally, it's a huge mess, but it helps if a colleague is like "Hey, didn't we have an issue back in August with the XYZ?". `ls ~/Stuff/2023-{07,08,09}` tends to find things again.

Besides that, I mostly have Projects/ (git projects I change) and Repos/ (git projects I look at) on my work laptop.
Thanks for the recommendations - I’ll see what this would involve

I don't see the point of continuing this comment tree.
As I see it the issue with your integrating example is that area is the correct word for finding “area”. Integrating is not finding the area. The indefinite integral is not about area. The definite integral in dimension 1 has to do with signed area. I don’t think having people ingrained to think finding area is “integration” would be a good thing. Especially since most people don’t take calculus.

To your point, people do constantly try to tweak things to make subjects easier to understand and more intuitive.

“They didn’t fill out some trivial form” is never the answer. It’s a show of power by someone, either Chinese govt or Meta.
The fork will create more turbulence for faster/better mixing. You can get even faster/better mixing from increasing the number of tines and making it round to spin it between your hands - a whisk.

> higher market caps than God

I know this was meant to be hyperbole but a quick fact-check shows that faith economy was in the triple-comma club before any of the tech companies. But, that's in aggregate and sidesteps the whole philosophical question of deity and property...

and to address your actual question, "it's the economy." Go to any legislator and show how the business model leverages the internet to unprecedented economic scale, you will get a good decade or two of enthusiastic support. The whole "we can self-regulate" was a stroke of luck and good timing/circumstance (and heavy lobbying, I presume),... and a demonstration of just how much faster tech can move than any legislative effort was enough to convince anyone else.

> I'm not sure I follow your logic. What do you hypothesise to be the causal factor linking these things?

Hypothetically? It's common for an industry to want to expand their market.

Imagine you're a big drug company, and you make decent profits selling drugs to treat shell-shocked soldiers returning from the front lines after losing limbs and seeing their buddies die right in front of them.

You look for ways to increase your sales and add to your profits. What if you could also sell your drugs to people who've been in bad car accidents? And to rape survivors? And to refugees fleeing from war? And to mothers who had particularly difficult births? And teens subject to severe bullying? What about cancer survivors, or people who've struggled following the death of a grandparent?

It's easy to see how higher diagnosis rates could go hand in hand with higher sales and higher profits.
Who could be good for this? Demis Hassabis maybe?
It looks like all the time spent designing the car went into quirky extras and not the core features.
There is no calibre of expected issues. Nobody’s a prophet. Faulty pedals happened in the past with other car manufacturers.
> pushing both pedals disables the accelerator

Much to the frustration of those of us who occasionally engage in some left-foot braking. (Though TBH in my experience it's usually more effective in FWD cars.)
Don’t worry, the big corporations are supposed to fall on their sword, not you.

And yet they spent millions on UI/UX and probably think they have it all figured out on that area.. weren’t they the originators of UX as a “field”?
MKBHD literally said that the driver side door came off on his car so the parallels are striking. He did say that this was a good thing because it meant the panel gap wasn't due to poor tolerances but due to the door not being properly attached and that Elon said this particular problem only affected 15 cars (and Elon famously knows the exact problems of each individual car so this in no way means only 15 people have reported the issue to Tesla that he knows of or wants to talk about). Certainly an iconic vehicle.
It feels like web community’s reponse to Elon Inc businesses, including Tesla and SpaceX, is frequently a double standard. By that I mean that Tesla gets a hall pass on crucial QC detail work because they’re iterating or ironing out the detail as if it’s a web app.

Meanwhile I’m not so sure the same leniency applies to Chevy or Toyota or whatever.

I don’t deny that iteration is a crucial process. Also I’m not advocating for a hall pass for big auto. I just think this is a really big oversight and mistake. When you’re dealing with software that doesn’t directly impact lives, go ahead: break stuff. But when we’re talking about big ass trucks on roads, there should be a harsh response to a recall like this.
Are you sure?

China has hidden police stations everywhere and their expats are being threatened in real life abroad when expressing opinions.
Yeah, I think this might just be a British (/Commonwealth) thing. 'Land' seems perfectly suitable to me.
Pixel phones have lots of geoblocked features. For example, they lose most of their 5G/VoLTE/VoWifi abilities if you use a sim from a phone network in an unsupported country, even though other models of phone don't have that issue.

A bunch of other features are geoblocked in the EU, or geoblocked to the US and Canada only.
> If you dropped a plate and it broke into a million pieces, would you say “the plate landed on the floor”?

Yes.
Disproportionately? Does Tesla ship as many vehicles as Toyota? You have made me curious about the numbers you are using.
Yes it does, it just doesn't make the news.
Food for thought is that it's impossible to tell if you are commenting on the comment, or reinforcing its message.
It was and probably will be cheaper for China to buy some components from external source, and the "buying is better" party dominated for about 30 years. US has well demonstrated well enough why China should stop buying at least critical parts.
