- Comment on Our first new Framework Laptop 16 Expansion Bay module - the Dual M.2 Adapter, enabling you to add additional storage drives or other high speed devices. 4 days ago:
Last I heard, there was a community effort designing an 8xPCIe4 (yes, that’s a thing) Occulink adaptor, love to hear if anyone’s got any info on it.
That said, M2 <-> Occulink adaptors abound, so, with some pretty trivial hacking this could support 2xeGPUs!

Or, in the Homerian fashion, It’s Funny Coz It’s True. Agreed.

Well, anything over a non-continuous x for example off the top of my head (and, yes for well-defined forms you can do the integral), still I have no idea what the cartoonist is on about and haven’t heard ‘anti-derivative’ for a donkey’s age, guess it’s poorly defined grade school stuff.

isn’t most of modern vegetable agriculture at least equally harmful
I’m a going with far more harmful.

- Comment on Zuckerberg bets on personalized AI models for all • The Register 4 months ago:
Agreed, and the chance of it backfiring on them is indeed pleasingly high. If the compute moat for initial training gets lower (e.g. trinary/binary models) or distributed training (Hivemind etc) takes off, or both, or something new, all bets are off.
- Comment on Logitech has an idea for a “forever mouse” that requires a subscription 4 months ago:
They’re talking about a Trackball mouse e.g., not the pre laser mice (or they’re nuts). Good ergonomics, useful for carpal tunnel etc.
FWIW I’ve found their high-end mice pretty robust, my MX Master 2 is still going strong 5+ years in, if cosmetically challenged. Amortised over time, the price is not so bad.
- Comment on Zuckerberg bets on personalized AI models for all • The Register 4 months ago:
Please let local, open equivalents be available (see LocalAI for an example of not being far off) before this. The sheer scale of data harvesting this will enable boggles the mind.
- Comment on Zuckerberg bets on personalized AI models for all • The Register 4 months ago:
Ditto on the hate, technical, but important distinction here, they support open-weight ML. They do not release training source code or data sets to actually make your own (granted you’d need millions in video cards to do it, but still). Open-source gets thrown around a lot in AI, presumably virtue signalling, but precious few walk the walk.
Never underestimate the value of getting hordes of unpaid workers to refine your product. (See also React, others)
