cellular carriers are using some variety of 3GPP rev-whatever standard, the UWB mentioned in this article is something totally different. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5G_NR htt…
comment
I think also that a large/smart/fast LLM can automate testing things with QEMU for at least moderately common architectures like motorola 68000, throw code at it rapidly and try different it…

Stories about Xerox PARC aside, the Apple Lisa was released to the market at the end of January 1983, and I would be surprised if Microsoft wasn't big enough/rich enough at that point to acq…

But was exceedingly rare, in the pre 640x480 VGA era the common video interfaces on 8088, 8086, 80186, 80286 were MDA, Hercules, CGA, or later on, EGA.
comment
There's a difference between using AI to automate some drudge work of stuff that would just be mentally tedious to do (writing an operating system for an 8088 in assembly? Tedious, unless you…

> My feed is filled with startup/VC/recruiter people liking vibe-orientated junk economics or junk science more than AI. so basically it's /r/linkedinlunatics/ ?
comment
But make sure the ML/AI knows how to predict the quantity of bulk grain supply that will be needed to feed the hamsters, and supply long term delivery contracts.

We could also go with "Oh Really? A Contemptuous Larry Ellison"

> They've been charged multiple times for bribing foreign government officials. Maybe they've been hiring former SNC Lavalin executives?

I have mentally trained myself to do a text substitution, whenever I see "Oracle" in a forum on the Internet, such as here, I try to substitute it with "Larry Ellison Needs A Bigger Yac…

Now the real interesting part would be if people can find a way for their hamster on strava to leak the locations of not-publicized military activities. https://www.google.com/search?c…
comment
I wonder if one could calculate the watt-hours produced in a day by a theoretical 100 hamsters on generator-attached wheels, and if you could run a laptop and LTE hotspot from that (or similar load).
comment
There was an obvious problem in the original release, they re issued it after like a week with the reasoning looping supposedly fixed.
comment
Laguna is the most recent and capable one that comes to mind. In its size class it is not as "smart" in my experience as qwen 3.5 122 or DeepSeek v4 flash 0731 (all at q8), but it's als…
comment
Oke of the great advantages of v4 flash 0731 is that even in the largest size unsloth quantized gguf, Q8 K XL, it will fit well within the resources of a 256GB DRAM server. If you have no gpu at all a…
comment
I'm sure the manufacturer will figure out a way to: a) Have it display advertising on a screen on its front size (like some fridges now) b) Only work with approved laundry pods c) Other new reven…
comment
Yes absolutely to avoid phishing sites with idn homograph, homoglyph attacks. Personally I'd like to see the punycode first then the emoji
comment
It would be an interesting comparison to compare the human "miss rate" shown in the table there with the exact same tests repeated with a different LLM watching and approving or denying each…
comment
Brings to mind the scene in '2001' where Bowman is pulling out individual pieces of hardware that represent the mind of HAL, and it becomes increasingly incoherent as more physical hardware …
comment
It did get it wrong but it also got a lot farther than much more recent, but worse models like 6.7GB on disk size ternary bonsai. It at least knows it's from Yiddish. The "schlemp" appe…
comment
I think the same exact model running on CPU-only and RAM, or a small GPU, would do about the same? It's quite an old model now and small, you could throw a GGUF into llama-server or something fo…
comment
I wonder if you had a few percent of problems in the yield, if it would be functionally equivalent to the difference between a unsloth-published Q6 standard size GGUF vs. the nearly perfect precision …
comment
There isn't SchlongBench(TM) yet, it's a specific question I've been asking of differently sized models as a randomly chosen gauge of how much less commonly used knowledge is perma-bake…
comment
Having a base model ASIC as a physical piece of hardware makes me think of the early days of microcomputer desktop stuff where having a socketed ROM or PROM was a key piece of hardware, and people act…
comment
I know it's a relatively tiny model, but damn, is that thing fast. It also mostly passes the "schlong" test https://pastes.io/YcxSi8Fp …
comment
Imagine the size of chip needed to 'etch' something like Qwen 3.6 27B in size.

I remember when someone registered (poopemoji).la https://xn--ls8h.la/ It does show up as the poop emoji followed by .la in google search results, but not in a firefox address bar.…
