News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

It's an update for installed office packages. There is no scanning involved... you are clearly motivated by something else but not stating what's factually happening on your PC when installing this update.
Spacebar heating at it's finest.
It broke his ancient workflow so it must be bad.
Please to have a sane discussion refrain from attributing your fears as facts. Nothing what you mention is done by this update.

But it's fun telling pretentious HNers that they they are wrong.
Just because HN is where some journalists found a link doesn't make it a news source it just shows that everyone reading HN could replace them.

The fact is just no matter how easy it is to create most people decide to rather just consume.
Re:Dear YouTube AI, I Am Not a Nazi on Friday January 20, 2023 @08:38AM (#34452938)
You may not be a nazi but you certainly are engaged with the content they recommended you and as we all know that's all that counts.
You really are like a chatbot... look at the last three node sizes and the density of ram in them. It's not gonna happen as fast as you dream about it especially not with the discounts of the last Gens. The hope is to go to fp4 if you want to run it on consumer hardware and we are still not talking to about 2-3 cards. Why not at least try to Google before hammering down on stupid and uninformed hot takes?
This post [0] is a good primer and they are talking about a 20b model gpt3 has 175b. Their other posts go more into details but yes, it really is a massive operation.

Some hard facts from here [1] talking about BLOOM with 175b parameters..

>> Installing the full 175B version is a challenge though as it requires around 350GB of GPU VRAM, which is not something one can easily afford.

But hey why deploy a model like chatGPT at all when you guys can be confidently incorrect all by yourselves.

yeah, that's not what op asked about. That's one of those smaller models that "suck" as you said so confidently in your first comment. Not even close to gpt3/chatgpt. Next time when I talk bullshit I just post a random py file to make my argument. lmao
We are not talking two or three and we are not talking 4090s here... If someone talks about something with confidence you see no one doing despite it being desirable they are usually full of shit and have no idea what they are talking about.

Stop using bad jpg encoders should be the real headline. webp is an outrageously bad file format for everything else than embedding it in a website.

More redundant than your highly editorialized comment?
Oh look the product from the guy who astroturfed with a blog post yesterday. I bet that's a total coincidence.
