Jev isn't new. There has already been an open source project for a year, now called Laya: https://laya.convaiinnovations.com/

The concept isn't new: zero-shot classification using e.g. Facebook BART has been available for years. And there is already an open source model Laya: https://laya.convaiinnovations.com/

How does Jev compare with encoder language models like BERT/RoBERTa/DistilBERT, which could also be used for text classification?

You could always use good old pen and paper rather than Apple Pencil or Remarkable Move.

Blame evil actors which autoplay ad videos in popups on many websites. And Apple devs for not implementing various Web APIs in Safari.

HTMX 4 is 41KB minified, why not use just plain HTML and a single inline 166-byte (sic!) onload handler named HTMZ? https://leanrada.com/htmz/

Alternatively, you can buy cheap modded RTX 3080 20GB VRAM for $500 on Alibaba and pair 2 of them.

It's because it's been heavily advertised in Google Search, social media and numerous installers as an optional feature (checked by default).

Come on, this was 6 years ago, they have apologized since. Firefox also had trips like pop-up ads in 2023: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36073619 and ToS rewriting: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43251762.
Brave is faster, suspends tabs when getting short of RAM with hundreds of tabs, has a first-class built-in ad blocker and fingerprinting protection, is compatible with Chrome extensions, includes Tor support, provides anonymous Brave Search with Goggles out of the box, free and private AI assistant Leo.

No, Zen is still a memory hog. See numerous threads on Reddit and issues on Github about excessive RAM usage.

Why not make it Actually Portable Executable using Cosmopolitan Libc, like Llamafile, to make it run on Windows/Linux/MacOS? Why don't you support Windows with CUDA?

Actually, declarative partial updates (HTML patching) have long been possible in every modern web browser without JS by using my Pure HTML Out-Of-Order Streaming (PHOOOS) technique based on Declarative Shadow DOM. You don't need another syntax with processing instructions. Demo: https://kraksped.pl/phooos/
