would love to see how AI can automate the construction of the next high energy particle collider
I'm just wondering if this is replacing, you know, teachers...
well, 90%+ of the mass of a proton comes from moving stuff, rather than rest mass of the quarks.

so the real world impact is, having anything at all

frontier to laptop runnable open weight so far seems to be ~2 years latency, so maybe there's some hope

    So what now? The short answer is that I have (a) a nice couch; (b) a big TV; (c) a Steam Deck that I never use. I even have a dock for the Deck.

how does Opus see the output? via HTML (which Typst can output) or visual tokens?

any comparison with https://actualbudget.org/ ?
what do people use for Neovim to integrate these models for tab-completion level of stuff. (i.e. non agentic/vibe coding)
Re:Which programming languages are most token-efficient? on Monday January 12, 2026 @12:00AM (#46584277)
the most efficient languages are pretty unpopular, so this argument makes them even more efficient in reality?...

Not clear if "contributor" is a person or an entity. The "hosting services" part make it sound more like a company rather than a natural person.

Re:The Universal Weight Subspace Hypothesis on Monday December 08, 2025 @11:59PM (#46201394)
you can always make a new vector that's orthogonal to all the ones currently used and see if the inclusion improves performance on your tasks

>instead of spending massive compute rediscovering it from scratch every time

it's interesting that this paper was discovered by JHU, not some groups from OAI/Google/Apple, considering that the latter probably have spent 1000x more resource on "rediscovering"

"Luckily," the hardware won't allow for 4k@120Hz on visually cutting edge games anyway.

yeah it's just a Linux x86 desktop (Arch Linux) -- although, you'd likely want to make sure Jellyfin's hardware acceleration works well with AMD APU (last time I checked the AMD was under experimental)
Re:Steam Machine on Wednesday November 12, 2025 @04:05PM (#45906666)
I guess right now the GPU is too weak. And ofc even if the hardware steps up, there are always root-kit games gatekeeping :(
