Timer is accurate only if you have first done experiments with your unique settings. However temperature gauges are very useful. I usually trust my eyes and nose more than a timer.

1. turn the swap off or monitor it closely
2. try to load a big model, like 65b-q4 or 30b-f16
3. observe the OOM
- It's not so hard to test this.

Semi offtopic, but for some time I have been dreaming of training chatbot to communicate in cuneiform or hieroglyphs to bring some old languages back alive. Could it be possible, using old tablets as training data?

I have never shared my location via browser, including google maps. Still, google very well knows where I live and focuses on my home as default, when I open google maps. I'm curious what do you seek by sharing your location with google (maps)?

It's a classic. Attack yourself and blame the other guy. This is how wars often start. The problem is that these cases are purely speculative, when executed right.

At least considering open source, I love the fact that not much money is involved because I feel that whenever money is involved, people start to serve money instead of users, meaning they might make decisions to maximize the money instead of the usability etc.

Great article. It's like people assume that you are some free rational actor, instead of being totally shaped by your history (specially childhood).

My gut feeling is that they don't straight up lie, but that they for sure are leaving things out. Also putting good faith on microsoft is just something I'm not able to do no matter how much I try.

I'm one of those weirdos. This is kind of how it actually works. I don't know anyone who has truly stopped all the social media (like hn). But things like facebook, instagram and tiktok; I don't feel getting anything good out of it so I don't use those at all.

System is broken and hating or getting rid of the winner does not help since there is a line of people ready to take his spot and that spot is only open for people who are not afraid of a fight. Don't hate the player, hate the game as they say.

Well, it's not public knowledge but it seems that VAC does not care about how it looks. Also while it doesn't look aimbotty, according to modern standards it also sucks at the game. In contrast, many pro players look very aimbotty, but are legit. But ultimately yeah, anticheat will be totally lost.

Isn't this case only when the thing really is obvious and just because you can spot couple of those "obvious cases" does not mean you have spotted every attempt, only the obvious ones.
