i guess OP meant "give me a link to the ui" or something.

most people don't care/want to finetune. they want their model in a cute and easy interface.

The RWVK modal was mention which is not based on transformers but on NN. [1]

The context window is particularly interesting, i have interacted with the people over discord some time ago and the model seems good but not widely used yet.

People are noticing the limitations will not shift to pure hardware -> energy now.

the transformers allows heavy parallelization but it's too computationally-intensive even with quantitization.

people are simply trying to run from the transformer is seem.

i sort of specialize in meta cognition(zettelkasten, spaced repetition, incremental reading, speed reading etc)

i believe the effects of writing by hand are so maginal you would re-gain it by not having to re-type your notes. putting them into spaced repetition etc.

just make everything digital and then OCR the rest.

how let the VCs out?

whoof

whoof

whoof

whoof

whoof!

ok so here is an idea that i have

why don't we build a 'line' in the pacific + indian ocean and carry containers by a small floater between countries in a 'corridor', yes they would be 'explored' to salty water but i think this is not as bad ...

we could then do 'gaps' between the containers as to let other ships cross the oceans

we could increase our capacity by 10x? and adding more is just adding another 'lane'

we would only have to worry about pirates but i think we can handle that

i'm open to VC $$$

Ask HN: Has anyone achieved Douglas Engelbart's Vision?

hi hacker news.i would like to know if anyone in software has achieved Douglas Engelbart's Vision?that of the OnLine System, H-LAM/T, Bootstrapping etc.if not, do you have anything that comes close to his vision for computing and collaboration?something that would augment our ability to improve and our ability to collaborate and solve difficult problems?

hey Christian, can you call me at adm (at) noite.ink for us exchange emails and who know ...

i'm also working on a memex/second brain-like solution.

what apps can't run on 4GB?

games?

3D?

Editing?

have you tried forking chrome and increasing this limit?

Re:Wokwi – Simulate IoT Projects in the Browser on Monday January 15, 2024 @05:39PM (#39007040)
i use this to teach children electronics, it's amazing, the only thing which is not idea is mobile support

if you're building a similar tool for browser-simulation please, pleaaaaaaase:

do not require me to have an account to enter to simulate, this reduces friction 100000x

i work with children

trust me

Re:Why don't schools teach debugging? on Sunday January 14, 2024 @12:59PM (#38992615)
personal anecdote:

schools already spend too much time with disruptive students

the fight is trying not to be bad

trying to be good is another story

you have to consider that in the black market the rates would absorb the illegality of the action. while 5k is 'clean'
Re:We Executed a Critical Supply Chain Attack on PyTorch on Sunday January 14, 2024 @12:51PM (#38992534)
very interesting

i wonder about the over-dependence on third party packages and modules

imagine the author of 'is-odd' injects a trojan there

what are you gonna do?

C has this solved but 'vendoring' is not as fast as this approach

Re:Ask HN: Who Is Looking for a Cofounder? on Sunday January 14, 2024 @09:34AM (#38990759)
i'm working on a coordination/knowledge management platforms. basically github for everyone.

for now i'm still building the primitives like spaced repetition, calendar, reminders etc.

imagine if zettelkasten took advantaged of: hypertext, web components, URL state, incremental reading, spaced repetition.

transforming itself into a 'digital collective second superbrain'

Question: What has improved your cognition 10x?

we've had many great improvements from everything from electronics to communication ... but i'm asking if you can list something(technology, idea, company, protocol, ??) that has improved your cognition 10x?i'm talking major improvements here.

Re:I cut GTA Online loading times by 70% (2021) on Tuesday January 09, 2024 @10:44AM (#38927393)
i read this article when it happened some time ago

this really makes me think:

if this obvious flaw exists ... imagine what other, more complicated and opaque mistakes exists and we're not aware of it ...

just food for thought
