It's really surprising to me this took years to solve.
vs code only uses about one gigabyte when nothing is loaded, but you should have about about 16 GB. I'm sorry were you using VB6?
Epstinian rooms on the island have no equal.
Oh ok, good, because we're talking about reducing RAM two orders of a magnitude, as addressed in the article. Good talk.
India is next world power
That doesn't make sense. If the cost of RAM is high and being used by models then yes, you should try to use less RAM. Using opposite logic is not good engineering. Seriously, what kind of argument is that? Hahaha
I'm entertaining this nonsense because I want to clarify, that I use a 20 year old web gui and it consistently eats 8 gigs of ram in Webkit because it uses CSS to update the forms. Webkit is the only option on iPads and yet it can't handle a 20 year old website because it doesn't do things in the standard ways. It's ridiculous to say "why doesn't it target web" especially after someone presents new coding harness that went out of its way to run well without it.
True but my point stands it's not Covid anymore. We don't need to build everything for the browser and talk through Zoom because it's easy for people who never use screen.
Even optimizing for specific hardware platforms is now trivial yet we act like everything has to be done through the browser, even though we know it's impossible to secure or do effectively because of the forest of constantly changing, proprietary tech.
>1 gig of ram for a gui is fine because ram is cheap I know because I program C++ and 1 gig is 6% of 16.
I don't know why you needed a paragraph to say that 1000% memory inflation is a trade-off to optimize dev costs and we can just ignore JS because our goal is to support a browser as the gui.
It's a bunch of nonsense and yet you call what I said nonsense while all you do is provide opinion that it's OK because trade-off or something. What you said is purely opinion so you can't say my take is nonsense. There's nothing "pure engineering perspective" about it.
JavaScript is just about the worst thing ever and why would you use that as middleware for anything if you didn't have to? I mean, I get using Visual Studio Code, if you don't care about your business processes, intellectual property or engineers and are just outsourcing everything, but imagine actually trusting it for your coding stack like some kind of middle manager who only cares about cutting costs to the bone? Or like, you're riding the AI bubble and want to release some minimal viable product as fast as possible, but it's 2026 now. Covid was 6 years ago.
Wow it's almost like they're not taxing pirated music at all and are taxing gigabytes. I suppose France is more like a farm of users and they're not entitled to their natural resources because users are inherently slaves to globalized capitalism.
I thought I saw red one in the deep Pennsylvania Woods and I would definitely see blue ones occasionally.
Right. What makes an expert good? It's intuition. If they had to pay attention to every detail they would never get anything done, but attention is a useful utility for figuring out how your model is working and how it isn't. If you've ever done anything complicated, you know that paying attention to one thing just often makes you overlook the obvious issue.
human intuition is supported by embodied experience, perception, and years of interacting with the physical and social world. An AI model's learned pattern recognition is analogous in some respects, but it isn't the same process.
intelligence may depend less on continuously scrutinizing everything than on having a good internal model, recognizing when that model is likely to fail, and knowing where to investigate.
Amazing. I hope I can get around to testing it out and making a video.
Seems to be working in one direction in two ways
Isn't Google renting cloud compute from XAI?
I spoke with someone smarter and richer than you and he said "these things will happen." That convinced me and I think the real question we need to be asking is, how awesome is OpenAI? How can we prepare for a more effective and efficient market for Super Intelligence before it happens tomorrow?
Not a lot of good reasons to upgrade to 27. They removed Rosetta and you have to reinstall that if you want it. So is MacOS turning into something that more regular people are going to have to maintain in the future or end up with something like Windows 11?
I switched to MacOS 3 years ago because of Microsoft and the writing on the wall seems to say I got another year left before I'm forced into Linux. Because if I have to maintain my own OS then I might as well install Linux and do it once.
it all comes down to if they have Epstein files on the powerful people running Germany and France

Probably yes, because they've been presumably trained on their own output and conversations about themselves.
Returning to the office doesn't solve the problem of replacing office jobs with AI
No. it's so it can be fingerprinted.
A lot of comments on VIM here. Vim is a terrible example and a pretty bad design overall, objectively. Legends of great productivity with vim is highly legendary, i.e. fiction. Classic Notepad/Word and similar Guis that have been widely adopted in Linux windowing systems are clearly superior and that's why they're so widely and silently adopted. Not a lot of fanfare for hierarchical GUI menus with keyboard shortcuts.
This is a great temporary solution to continue developing AI up to a reliable state, then the ownership can be transferred to a particular state that is major global presence in cybersecurity, semiconductor design, and tech innovation, who is already well positioned with key stakeholders in most if not all American tech companies with strong grantees in government support.
Major technology companies have signed strategic agreements for SMR development, but regulatory approvals and supply-chain scaling place widespread commercial deployment in the late 2020s through the 2030s. Now that we are in astronomical debt, it's our responsibility to turn our nation into a wasteland in order to provide this particular nation a scalable, full spectrum and robust AI defense solution that will allow them to achieve their geopolitical goals safely without fear of reprisal while they continue to expand their influence in tech and the global economy, hopefully culminating in extracting taxes on ships going through key trade canals near their borders and beyond.
This is no accident. Microsoft knew exactly what they're doing, working through notifying and transitioning 170,000 customers is a lot of work. That work isn't free for Microsoft to provide. Cutting them off probably saved them $billions and many years of expensive, partial service deprecation.
