Re:Herdr has released native app on Friday October 30, 2026 @12:57PM (#50306722)
the fork from the original herdr tui (without any explanation of the plan or reasons) is quite confusing given that they are using different backends
is it possible to distill a large model into a (even) smaller MoE model, like OLMoE?
You are underestimating...

Ask HN: 2FA hell and continuous, passive biometric (re-)authentication?

How do you best handle authentication in high-security environments (ie. with PCI or HIPAA compliance issues) while still enabling people to get work done?Consider this situation: Zero-trust network (via Cloudflare) where the endpoint computer is specifically registered and managed.Different customers and dev environments live on completely separate systems in multiple clouds; connecting to...

I would love a way to flexibly view and move around lots of PDFs at different scales, to simulate piles on a desk or the floor. For some purposes, something is lost by constraining organization to a regular grid or table.
What ever happened with Nantero?
a better example might be a new restaurant called Hamburger King

The speed is pretty much irrelevant right now

All they need to do is support external RAM so they can make a machine with up to 128 or 256gb of memory. It's easy enough, but for their reasons they have just chosen not to do it yet.

like college?
