Not a major setback because for long context I'd just use GPT or claude, but it would be cool to have 128k context locally on my machine. When I get a new CPU I'll upgrade RAM to 64, my GPU is more than capable of what I need for a while and a 5090 or 4090 is the next step up in VRAM but I don't want to shell out 2k for a card.
Yet I see other people with less resources like 10GB of vram and 32gb system ram fitting the 120b model onto their hardware.
Perhaps its because ROCm isn't really supported by ollama for RDN4 architecture yet? I believe I'm using vulkan to currently run and it seems to use my CPU more than my GPU at the moment. Maybe I should just ask it all this.
I'm not complaining too much because it's still amazing I can run these models. I just like pushing the hardware to its limit.
People react differently to being approached, just like anyone would. If they are just into you it works. If not some are polite and see it as a compliment and just say no. Others will be offended and scoff. Either way no one gets hurt and you just move on.
Eventually you just get lucky with someone who is interested in you back. This is kinda how it was for most of history, so I find it odd people are so against it now. We are social creatures! go out and meet people, if they happen to be mean oh well, that reflects entirely on them.
It can be risky dating at work but some find the trade off worth it. I suppose it depends on how comfortable you are at your job too. I've definitely seen relationships blossom in my workplace more than once. When you spend so much time with people it's only natural.
Makes sense that attention is what they want from you, and how the experience compares to that of an average dude on it.
I suppose I'm forgetting other experiences too, I guess I follow the two "rules" of dating apps because as a dude I get a decent amount of matches. Still I don't like the dating apps, maybe I just yearn for something more real I'm not sure.
Since you are not an "active user" they will give you the most attractive people to swipe on. Every couple of days they will give you a "limited time" discount on gold or platinum or whatever. The push notifications are my favorite part, "you could be missing out on the love of your life!!!".
Not to mention the interactions with the UI are littered with casino like visuals. The whole purpose of the app is to get you addicted and spending time and money on it.
It's much easier to naturally meet people in real life through work/school. If you can't there, go hang out at coffee shops or bookstores or something and just hang. Strike up conversation with people, just live. You'll get rejected and some people will be rude but it's all real. You could also always pick up hobbies and meet people there. Just be social, don't spend time and money on these machines of misery.
Always feel bad for people who cave to the mob, usually if the mob is yelling at you you’re on the right track
Notice how they always complain but never actually suggest solutions, like setting up more modern nuclear power plants or funding fusion R&D.
No, they are just looking to sell doom and clicks so to them solving the problem would actually put them out of work.
I assume there are many such cases
Why is it not regarded as a solution
The content on Bluesky is lacking, i know it’s because of the invite only system, and that has its advantages and disadvantages but Bluesky is going to run into a problem soon.
They obviously need content and users to stay alive, and the content is lacking. Currently it’s a very niche group of users who have a very distinct culture. They don’t leave much room for differing ideas.
It will be interesting watching this play out. They are positioned in a way that can beat threads, but they need to drop the invite ASAP and manage their onboarding of new users.
That means the culture will inevitably change, I’m not sure I see a way of it staying the same as normal people and more fringe people sign up.
IMO they should prioritize content creators. Engaging content on the platform that’s rich will be a huge leg up when they open up.
Helps too that currently i can’t even post a picture on threads without it crashing. Blue sky is definitely the more delightful sop to use.
I was lucky enough to learn film development in high school, though now a days I don’t have access to a darkroom.
Which is unfortunate because many of my family members are photographers and used to have darkrooms in their homes.
Hi my company is racing toward AGI, let’s make sure no other companies can even try.
I will say that when using ANC it bothers me much more if nothing is playing.
I think it would be quite fun to have a HUD like that for daily life.
The last thing I want is for freeloaders to essentially never get fired and for some parasitic entity to collect dues for "bargaining" that usually isn't even worth it by the time they finish negotiations. Especially in todays climate.
Sure the threat of a union may mobilize a company to be more competitive and pay more, but the actual unions themselves just seem to never work out. Expecting an entity that doesn't do much to get you all these benefits is almost insane. When has any union actually got everything they promised? Never, at least not in America.
Minecraft is a simple game where you build the experience alone or with friends, the only reason the poem is meaningful for people is because of those experiences. Dude let his ego get out of check.
I’ve encountered it both ways, and theres just some things that people seem to only be able to understand on their own through experiences.
Opening up to other people is exhausting, they frequently either don’t know what to do or they try and act sympathetic or empathetic but eventually usually aren’t.
I think often about Frodo in lord of the rings. The burden he had to carry alone and how it changed him. I think many people have that one ring they carry around. You have to look at it from a Birds Eye view, the way our lives all run and are interconnected. It’s said that either someone you know directly is going through something rough or that person knows someone who’s got it rough. Thinking of that helps me be nicer and more patient with people.
But i think it’s foolish to expect them to be. I’ve been burned many times putting faith in people I shouldn’t. The only people who usually truly get you understand you because they went through it themselves. Of course this is just my experience, but I’ve found it keeps on ringing true as i get older and older.
You’re in college, enjoy it use it to learn computer science. People switch careers up later in life, you’ve got time and can do whatever you want
