You don't start with the adults.

You kill the adults and raise the pups.

Even today, there are wolf sanctuaries with wild wolves who've become quite friendly and acclimated to their carers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gePE-_lrJUU
Sorry, my mistake, as others have noted. I corrected my post.
"Uncle Bob" is not a software engineer (as he calls himself) and anything he says on the subject is theoretical at best, and snake oil at worst. Can anyone point to any substantial piece of code that he wrote before he can be taken seriously. The code pieces at his GitHub repos, other than style, etc., are just simplistic stuff.

It is probably OK to be thinking on issues related to a field (i.e., software engineering) without being a practitioner in the field, but producing fads-du-jour and selling them as solid (pun intended) theories and expecting to be taken seriously is just ludicrous to me.
I've been running ollama on an XTX7900 (AMD GPU with 24GB of RAM) with any model that fits in it, and absolutely no issues there.
Resigning in protest has been common over the years. Of course (like reading the TFA?). I don't see it being effective besides bringing attention to the problem. In this case, it's not like there isn't enough attention. There's already plenty of attention.

During the first Trump round, there seemed to be an effort to resist and obstruct from the inside. In some cases pretty effective. That also seems to be something Trump is trying to fight this time around. He noticed. Still an option.

A third method would be to remain in place, mitigate as possible, but mostly maintain the knowledge and experience in place to rebuild things at the next opportunity.

I'm sure more ways can be dug out from history too.

So, yeah, there are options.
Right, which would then mean you don't have to worry about weird edge cases where you trained it to be a nice upstanding LLM but it has a thing for hacking dentists offices
What made you decide to dedicate 15 minutes of your time to this activity?

Sometimes I think there are unusual things that are not usually talked about, but that doesn't mean people don't feel them.

For example, you might smell the scent of your mother who died decades ago. Or you dream that you are about to be born, you are on the other side of existence and you are hesitating, but many people are cheering you on. Or you dream that you are listening to dead people, and one of them says: "Stop, he can hear us."
The main selling point is the unified memory, the GPU isn't as fast as a discrete GPU but it can address quadruple the RAM of the biggest consumer dGPU. It'll be good for inference if the software stack works.

"Everyone wants to do the model work, not the data work" (2021)
The title reads like a factoid produced by an LLM.
Nvidia must be extremely nervous about this - the most direct threat to the RTX4090.

But hey, they've refused to provide GPUs with lots of RAM at a cheap price so competition, y'all.
ZFS does this by de-duplicating at the block level, not the file level. It means you can do what you want without needing to keep track of a chain of differences between files. Note that de-duplication on ZFS has had issues in the past, so there is definitely a trade-off. A newer version of de-duplication sounds interesting, but I don't have any experience with it: https://www.truenas.com/docs/references/zfsdeduplication/
Yes, there is often manufacturing engineers on duty 24/7 and of course, line management.
Yeah it seems like it doesn't go back very far, which is understandable.
yeah that's tough to get right even on a 14" 1440P is almost too much (problem is scaling, particularly with external monitor and your laptop, depends on OS)

I also have a 13.5" 3000x2000 laptop and it uses 200% scaling, fractional is blurry. Initially I was trying to use Ubuntu but the extend monitor scaling was so bad (Chromium, VS Code), just decided to stick with Windows for this device.
Interesting takeaways from me:

All that pompous sounding legalese can still be ambiguous! I feel less bad for not understanding contracts that have 100 word compound sentences.

Legal people can't keep up with our tech jargon but they have their own jargon including "predicate" lol. So same logical thinking, different jargon framework.

Question: why do they want the schema not the data?
According to Framework, CAMM / LPCAMM is simply not compatible with this line of AMD chips, do to signal integrity reasons.
hmm interesting - sometimes it definitely fails yes. Will take a look!

btw - our biggest challenge is exactly this, solving thousands of issues that arise on the fly.
Do stored procedures count as part of the schema? I've recently found a SQL injection vulnerability in a client's SP that was using concat (very badly)
Note that the modern cosmic distance ladder has multiple partially independent paths using different techniques, making it more like a DAG. The wikipedia page has a nice diagram.

I Built an Insulin Calculator WebApp in One Afternoon Using AI Tools
I recently developed an Insulin Calculator WebApp that calculates insulin dosage based on food carbohydrate content. By integrating the Open Food Facts API and leveraging AI tools like ChatGPT and Vercel v0 Chatbot AI, I built and deployed the entire project in one afternoon. The app features a modern UI with internationalization and theme switching. Check out the live demo https://aflussing.github.io/Insulin-Calculator/ and the code on GitHub https://github.com/aflussing/Insulin-Calculator. I’d love to hear your thoughts and any feedback on further improvements!
Not only that, but what it currently has left as its biggest win wasn't cut by DOGE:

> The largest savings on the latest version of its list is a $1.9 billion cut at the Treasury Department. But The Times reported last week that this contract was canceled last fall, when Joseph R. Biden Jr. was president — and when DOGE did not yet exist.

Basically, we can't believe a thing DOGE is telling us. Not super surprising I guess, but Elon used to be more honest than Trump (or maybe that was just my impression?), now he's reaching parity with Trump.
Actually look at the data. That is a bullshit, erroneous summary by some lazy clown.

The Americas in totality account for 42.3% of Apple sales.

I mean...this is all so silly regardless. Even if the US accounted for 100% of sales in the Americas (protip - it doesn't remotely), that would STILL mean the majority is outside of the US. But in reality in US is only a fraction of Americas sales, and it's a strong majority sold elsewhere.
It makes sense as I probably asked ChatGPT a lot of specific questions, and the answers I liked or I would not have clicked.

Google links who knows….
Wolves keep away other animals, and are more alert than humans. If I'm a Paleolithic human, having a wolf nearby that isn't eating my kids precisely because I give it snacks instead, and that is going to just naturally ward off bears or other pests, even in the dark of night, seems like a great win.
A narrow upbringing for a child will also lead to a narrow adult.
I pretty much see them on a daily basis in the Driftless Area of Wisconsin and Illinois these days, which is great because I don't think I had one sighting for the first 30 or so years of my life.
One thing about this period that kinda annoyed me in the tech press, is that it always felt like these companies were making new/better computers for "their existing customers" as if they were only ever competing against their own older products.

Another thing, which perhaps "grinds my gears" a lot more, is that this late-90's/early-00's shift to PCs happened before Linux was sufficiently taken seriously. So lots of high-end applications that started on UNIX migrated over to Windows NT. And once you're firmly on Windows, its much harder to go to Linux. (Whereas commercial UNIX to Linux is easy.)

So now there are whole markets (that used to support commercial UNIX) where Linux users get the middle finger, and as someone who hates Windows, this really ticks me off.
US recruiters will sometimes do C2C depending on the industry and client.
I did a trial run with Deep Research this weekend to do a comparative analysis of the comp packages for Village Managers in suburbs around Chicagoland (it's election season, our VM's comp had become an issue).

I have a decent idea of where to look to find comp information for a given municipality. But there are a lot of Chicagoland suburbs and tracking documents down for all of them would have been a chore.

Deep Research was valuable. But it only did about 60% of the work (which, of course, it presented as if it was 100%). It found interesting sources I was unaware of, and assembled lots of easy-to-get public data that would have been annoying for me to collect that made spot-checking easier (for instance, basic stuff like the name of every suburban Village Manager). But I still had to spot check everything myself.

The premise of this post seems to be that material errors in Deep Research results negate the value of the product. I can't speak to how OpenAI is selling this; if the claim is "subscribe to Deep Research and it will generate reliable research reports for you", well, obviously, no. But as with most AI things, if you get paste the hype, it's plain to see the value it's actually generating.
Yes true, but that page also covers some recent improvements to de-duplication that might assist.
I wonder if this has to do with catastrophic forgetting to some extent; fine tuning on a large enough dataset to make the RLHF go away. Genius to add the “negative” code intent to the mix
RISCV is garbage for real use currently.

Arm laptops are plenty competitive with the x86 space with the snapdragons now.
The alternative and more charitable interpretation, of course, is that a single function like sin() is not what said GP meant when using the word "interface". But hey, don't let me interrupt your tilting at straw men, you're doing a great job.
Even state legislators are, by their nature, pretty much locally driven given the relatively small size of their constituencies and thus the margin of victory.

Voters significantly underestimate their power even up to the House level; AOC’s first campaign was very scrappy and resulted in a bartender unseating the chair of the Congressional Democrat Caucus and likely successor to Nancy Pelosi, and that was the first campaign in which anyone bothered to primary him.
Tarriffs will not be enough.

Well, don't be too hard on yourself. A lot of folks struggle with reading comprehension.
they were alarmed they lost what used to be tight control of media narratives around e.g. the gaza genocide and are working overtime to concentrate control so it doesn't happen again

let it be known the UK used its carve out territory in Cyprus to process bomb shipments to the IDF in furtherance of a genocide

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/1/15/uk-bases-in-cyprus-...
According to the FT article:

"Ukrainian officials say Kyiv is now ready to sign the agreement on jointly developing its mineral resources, including oil and gas, after the US dropped demands for a right to $500bn in potential revenue from exploiting the resources."

--

"The final version of the agreement, dated February 24 and seen by the FT, would establish a fund into which Ukraine would contribute 50 per cent of proceeds from the “future monetisation” of state-owned mineral resources, including oil and gas, and associated logistics. The fund would invest in projects in Ukraine.

It excludes mineral resources that already contribute to Ukrainian government coffers, meaning it would not cover the existing activities of Naftogaz or Ukrnafta, Ukraine’s largest gas and oil producers.

However, the agreement omits any reference to US security guarantees which Kyiv had originally insisted on in return for agreeing to the deal. It also leaves crucial questions such as the size of the US stake in the fund and the terms of “joint ownership” deals to be hashed out in follow-up agreements."
I like that it named the rival "Waclaude" :)
Show HN: MyCoder, an open source Claude-Code alternative
Is your argument that government agencies should also withhold the names of filing cabinet manufacturers? :)
I don't believe it was capable of it, which is why it was so massive. The SR-71, which required inflight refueling repeatedly, only held 80k pounds of fuel (about 12k gallons). I don't have any good sense of fuel burn vs speed either, but in general, jets like to run high and fast. The old Lear 23s burned about as much fuel (pounds per hour) idling on the ground as they did at cruise, and I think the SR-71 (which mostly used the turbojets to keep the afterburners lit, at cruise...) fuel economy up high was quite good. Apparently the major problem with performance was keeping it from overspeeding - left to their own devices, the engine (... entire engine assembly, however long it was) was running so efficiently that they just wanted to go.
I'ma big Tcl fan, but Ousterhout has created many other important things - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ousterhout .
This was always a war between the US and Russia. I guess now the picture is clearer.
Ah, I see, I was parsing the sentence wrong.
That's a Windows limitation. On Linux it's 110GB.
This isn't really in the same category as the 4090/5090, it has a lot more memory but with a fraction of the bandwidth. 128GB at 256GB/sec vs 32GB at nearly 2TB/sec.

Nvidia's actual counterpart would be their DIGITS mini-PC, which has a similar big-and-slow memory architecture.

Is the "Slop" Just "Not for Me"?
Am I the only one slightly perplexed/worried by the point-blank source code exemption?

It's easy to imagine a scenario where the city decides to develop a specific software in-house and hide the "biases" in the source code, or any other thing one might not find desirable.

Hell, they don't even need to make everything from scratch! Could just patch and use a permissively licensed 3rd-party component.

In my opinion, the proposed amendment does not go far enough.
Having seen how students treat school-provided Chromebooks, those IO modules will get lost and damaged at light speed.
I always wondered why the B-52 didn’t get replaced by converted airliners (787 has quite similar dimensions I believe). Would be much cheaper to run and could do practically the same thing, no?

Yeah, for the shop it makes total sense, but for the front-page not so much.
My parents dog OD only interested in food if:

- the treats you have are good-enough (better have delicious chicken, otherwise, no dice)

- she hasn’t decided that there isn’t something else she’d rather be doing

- hours much of a process she feels like being today.

You can motivate her with food only on her terms. Conversely, my partners dog would commit crimes just to be near the cheese packet.
Can't they just block the UK?
Good! Strange that their photos don't show this off. Lenovo ad-spend showcasing tablet mode was enormous.

To me, the point of using a Rust version over a C version of anything would be for memory safety not performance, so a 1:1 rewrite doesn’t make any sense ie. because what’s the point - you’ve now reproduced any memory dangers!
> Doesn't this make the US in many ways the same as Russia?

Yes. Trump surrendering to Putin normalises the taking of territory and resources through conquest.
The only way to avoid that requires a lot of very angry people realizing that it's in their own interest to embrace their enemy. That literally never happens. So RIP to the way we were. If only more people valued institutions and heritage, rather than seeing America's value in dynamism singularly. Identity requires long term memory.
Trump's 2nd Trade War Begins
Thanks, I haven't touched Typescript in a while so it might be the occasion for that. When do you feel like you have a handle on the behavior, do you have complex integration tests then?
Trade deficits are good, they are a privilege of empire. Foreign countries give us finished goods and services, and in return we give them green pieces of paper, which most of the time they give straight back to us in investment. What's bad about that? Thinking trade deficits are bad is just discredited mercantilism with a new coat of paint.

They are a UK-based forum.
I got to about 1/3rd of the way before I noticed my eyes were kinda struggling to read the article. Toggling different CSS rules, it's the #333 gray color. Turning that off is instantly better. The custom font is much thinner than the default, but that by itself doesn't seem to be the issue if the color is (closer to) black. (There is also a font-weight rule, but toggling it makes no visual difference in Firefox. Maybe the text is intended to look different?)

Since there is no contact method on the website, figured I'd mention it in a comment; hope this helps
we should!
Anyone* would be crazy to run a UK-based or somewhat UK-centric forum today. Whether it be for a hobby, profession, or just social interaction. The government doesn’t perceive these sites as having any value (they don't employ people or generate corporation tax).

AMD claims this APU delivers more than twice the tokens per second than an RTX4090.

So its better than 4090.

The reason its better with a less powerful GPU is context switching.

"AMD also claims its Strix Halo APUs can deliver 2.2x more tokens per second than the RTX 4090 when running the Llama 70B LLM (Large Language Model) at 1/6th the TDP (75W)."

I'll share my recipe for using these products on the off chance it helps someone.

1. Only do searches that result in easily verifiable results from non-AI sources.

2. Always perform the search in multiple products (Gemini 1.5 Deep Research, Gemini 2.0 Pro, ChatGPT o3-mini-high, Claude 3.7 w/ extended thinking, Perplexity)

With these two rules I have found the current round of LLMs useful for "researchy" queries. Collecting the results across tools and then throwing out the 65-75% slop results in genuinely useful information that would have taken me much longer to find.

Now the above could be seen as a harsh critique of these tools, as in the kiddie pool is great as long as you're wearing full hazmat gear, but I still derive regular and increasing value from them.
Here's hoping that touchscreen becomes available as a component for the 13 as well.
Of course, but it looks like this accretion disk was below the «event horizon», because speed is much higher, 50% of speed of light, instead of typical 10%.

Unclear. Historically, this just shifts production from the warring parties to neutrals. (An effect amplified by economies of scale.)
It's a feature you have to activate and it's only available to Business/Enterprise sites, you're not at any risk of it showing up unless you want it to.

This is a cool product for people who want a lot of RAM for LLMs. Those like me who build their own systems would get better value out of a machine they've built.

The only parts which can be customized for this product are the presence or absence of a handle, the cooler's fan, the case's side and some front tiles. That's it. The m.2 SSD and the wifi are the only components which can be replaced.

This isn't the kind of product I wanted Framework to make. I was hoping they'd make hardware which can be repaired and which has components available for it. The motherboard has all the chips and everything else soldered on it. The most expensive part of the computer needs to be replaced if a voltage regulator or some other part found on the motherboard fails. There's no cheap $ 100-200 motherboard to replace in this product. It's the same problem as with Apple's Macs.

Can someone at Framework answer this question: what do the customers do with your Framework Desktop hardware once it breaks and you no longer support it? It's e-waste. What happens when the motherboard in my computer dies? I buy only a replacement motherboard while keeping the RAM, the CPU and GPU, unlike for Framework Desktop. What happens when the GPU I have is no longer useful or supported? I buy only a new GPU.

This board doesn't even have PCI-E for a GPU. This product is only good as long as the iGPU provides the required performance for whatever application is of interest. This is a weakness the Framework 13 motherboard shares. There's no way to remove the board from its case to use it with a PCI-E x16 GPU with the right PSU.

AMD is known to abandon their customers once they release newer dGPUs and SoCs with iGPUs. This can be easily observed if you review the countless reports for crashes with amdgpu on Linux. The amdgpu driver has various bugs which lead to crashes of the GPU or of the entire machine. They're also not good at shipping CPU microcode for consumer CPUs to address hardware bugs and CVEs.

As a side note, even the Framework AI HX laptops are extremely expensive for what they offer in terms of hardware. A laptop which goes above $ 2000 without RAM, an SSD, a charger and without any adapters for those bays seems to be a good deal? That's absurd. There are laptops with 32 GB of RAM, the same CPU, better displays, a 1 TB SSD, a charger and all the required ports present on the laptop for less than $ 2000 (including taxes).

I hope someone from Framework reads this. I want repairable products which can be upgraded without replacing a monolithic part which is the entire computer.

Other noteworthy things

- their site went down hard with a queue to see the site... downright absurd

- they haven't posted the specs of the Framework 12

- there are still no actual repair centers which repair their products, no physical stores or sellers which sell Framework products outside of their site

- there have been reports of people who didn't have their hardware problems with Framework laptops addressed, even LTT addressed such issues
That question supposes that humans aren't also primarily motivated by food (I've also never met a man or woman that wasn't).
Here's a thing... There's been many of them and they all die because they don't provide enough benefit over the status quo.

But the only thing that really took off was effort to change things at the very base level rather than patch issues: Rust, Zig, Go.
