Running Gemma 4 26B A4B and Qwen 3.8 27B on a M4 Pro with 24 GB - Qwen 3.8 runs fine but is slow and taxes the machine a bit, Gemma 4 on the other hand, is a better experience.
Good to know. Thank you for sharing this!
Really nice! The place names are a little hard to read especially in dark mode, other than that great job! Thanks for sharing!
Cool but made the wind turbines spin on my IT.
Visually inspecting how a particular model is architected is quite interesting. Thank you for coming up with this!
Sorry if I come across as being pedantic but it's actually the Communist Party of China - the CPC, even though many, esp. in the US, use the wrong abbreviation - CCP.
This is truly helpful. Thanks. Sometimes asking the right question of oneself can lead to a much needed breakthrough.
This is why having 2 browsers is part of good security practice - keep one for important work and the other for regular browsing.
The quality you get for the money from Mac's is truly unmatched by any other laptop out there - why not use a VM on it for other OS & software?
Makes it seem that AI is a one-man show while also feeding the hype cycle
This is true! Had no idea!
"The Soviet Union has been flying nuclear power sources in space since about 1965. For the most part these nuclear power sources have been low-power nuclear reactors using a thermoelectric conversion principle."

I disagree with Steven Pinker’s claim that consciousness arises from the brain.
This perspective fails to establish that the brain produces consciousness, as it relies on the mistaken assumption that "mind" and "consciousness" are interchangeable. While brain activity may influence the mind, consciousness itself could be a more fundamental aspect of reality. Rather than generating consciousness, the brain might function like a radio, merely receiving and processing information from an all-pervasive field of consciousness.
In this view, a split-brain condition would not create two separate consciousnesses but instead allow access to two distinct streams of an already-existing, universal consciousness.
Hope we get one for every 'BIG' out there.
