I've been expecting this news for a while, and I moved to Zen when they changed direction originally. Can highly recommend it as a near drop-in replacement for Arc, albeit built on Firefox.

I seemingly did - what happened?

the core product has no moat and they're racing to find the actual product

I did this yesterday and it works incredibly well. I finetuned ModernBERT to classify documents. With zeroshot it achieved around ~30% accuracy, which jumped to 98.2% with finetuning, and latency of around 150ms on my Macbook. Just incredible!

Are you able to point to any literature supporting this statement?

If this doesn't work, you could always try Laplink with a parallel cable

maps.me was my goto for years, but that has since devolved into a mess with ads and upselling. I recently discovered CoMaps, and it is excellent for my needs.

What? How? With no mentions of priors. This idea has been around for a long time - at least since 2024 (Xingyao Wang et al.)

So, unlike what leaders of western labs labs would like you to believe (that Kimi is just the result of distillation attacks), they are introducing new and novel approaches.

Cool! If you're in New Zealand, there is a massive, two story Double Woolf beam engine at MOTAT museum in Auckland, along with an array of other steam driven engines that they run from time to time.

I still can't believe this software is free.

I've heard it being referred to as Boersbay, but Boereworsbaai is much better haha

Security through obscurity isn't a great strategy.

This is great - reminds me of the golden age of cool little MacOS apps

Claude Code with --chrome is excellent at building UIs (and hopeless without it!)

To be fair this is a series D

Looking forward to LLMgate

When I have aura it's always morbidly fascinating to me how a part of my vision is not black, but it's just "missing"

It floats, but only when very cold

How do they separate the impact of the 3x per week exercise?

Congrats! I used VWO extensively in a previous life as a "growth hacker".

Covering your eyes does not stop the oncoming train.

It's really just a stopgap.

I thought this was true. However after buying and trying to use one of their mesh products, I gave up and got rid of it. I bit the bullet and went with Ubiquiti, and I'll never buy anything else again. Worth the extra cost imo.

If you look at what happened at Twitter in the time before Musk bought it, one could argue that it's already been extremely political - just not on the side the EU would like.

I feel the same. I was diagnosed back when it was still called ADD.

I'm not an expert in this field at all, so please excuse the dumb question. Does this mean that if you say, quantise llama3 to 4 bits, you would be able to access "hidden" (albeit degraded) information such as, for example, how to synthesise certain chemical compounds?

I've been doing this for a while and find that the OCR performance is fantastic.

Strange design choice. That said, I've used the power button of my existing Mac Mini perhaps once in the past several years.

What's up with the amateur hour graphs with squashed/pixelated logos?
