Having a conflicted feeling about this. On one hand, the idea is cool. On the other, the website with its' Instrument Serif font Claudism is kind of a turn off and makes me feel that the whole experience is gonna be slop or the maker will lose interest in a matter of weeks and stop shipping.

You do realize that this is likely a 10 trillion parameter model that takes something like 20 terabytes of RAM to run inference? Calculate the price for all this VRAM .... It's not getting cheaper in the next few "months".

Re:The Witcher 4 Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo: Digital Foundry Reaction [...
on Wednesday June 04, 2025 @05:00PM (#44185495)
Witcher 4 is a game that is pushing UE5's limits. Unreal comes with its source available, and CPR had to write their own world partition streaming engine, create a new type of non-actor asset for environment art, introduce a lot of multi-threading improvements. That's why it serves as a good tech demo source. Lots of people in the industry are looking carefully at how this move from a proprietary engine to UE is going for CPR, and this kind of tech demo serves are great marketing towards other companies with an in-house engine considering a move to UE.

I gave up on Warp a long time ago when it started memory leaking like crazy:
https://github.com/warpdotdev/Warp/issues/2611
Also I've never quite found the AI stuff "smart" enough in the terminal to make me feel like it's contributing to anything I'm doing. More often than not the stuff it suggests is useless and worse than a naive autocomplete.

Did you try to search for "public bath near me" instead of just "public bath"? That tends to work better for me when I search for stuff on Google Maps.

Funds don't appear on the blockchain out of nowhere. They need to be sent from another address on a PUBLIC ledger. They are ALWAYS traceable. A person who would upload illegal or pedophilic content to the blockchain would be traceable through exchanges, transactions e.t.c
That's why you don't see lots of that behavior currently. (there may be some, but nowhere near any significant amount)

Producing 760k of code for a Raspberry Pi (running a full blown non-realtime linux distribution) hardly seems like embedded development though.
