What kind of hardware would be needed to serve an instance with the full 12m context? And what kind of speeds can one expwct at those extremes at 10m+?

Det är bra, hydrodynamik är också viktigt!

Have you considered something like https://github.com/hickory-dns/hickory-dns? Not that everything has to be built in Rust.

I'm pleasantly surprised that rust is the fifth most popular language. It is indeed a joy to work in rust with Claude compared to e.g. python.

Is the focus on how dangerous mcp capabilities are a way to legitimize why they have been slow to adopt the mcp protocol? Or that they have internally scrapped their own response and finally caved to something that ideally would be a more security focused standard?

I'm curious what kind of performance the Tensor G5 would have with llama.cpp, compared to a 16gb desktop gpu.

I'm just using claude-code on termux on my s42 ultra with some mcp tools i built in rust - which thus runs on aarch64-linux-android. Very handy to get rust analyzer, webdriver, github cli etc on your phone, so i can get some small stuff done during commute.

I started to work on a rust version, always thought more mcp / a2a plumbing should be done in rust instead of python/js. https://github.com/EmilLindfors/a2a-rs

One of the main problems is the commoditization of salmon and race toward cheapest feed ingredients just like the other animal proteins such as cattle, poultry and pork. Its just that Salomon need marine epa and dha omega-3 oils and proteins while not being able to process carbs that well. There are promising alternatives but they have a hard time to compete since you cant carry the cost to the consumers. Ie few are willing to pay extra to get a Salomon fed with insect protein and gmo oil from plants or algae. Switching feed ingredients also have their own impacts that need to be taken into account.

Yes there are large farmers in Norway that are using black soldier fly protein meal and its being produced in large scale in e.g. NL and France. But so far only a fraction of the feed has been replaced due to cost and availability of the meal. Consumers typically think insects are icky and would rather not have their food eating insects even if its their natural diet. There are also great progress on terrestrial epa and dha omega-3 in plant oils but its gmo so again people dont want it

rust-ffmpeg already seems to have support for 7.0: https://github.com/zmwangx/rust-ffmpeg/pull/178

Zotero's V7 reader is great, built on pdfjs (Mozillas pdf reader) and adds neat things like notations and dark mode.

These are shallow arguments built on the good old techno-optimist view that technology will solve all our problems by perfecting resource extraction.

"With novel technologies like precision fermentation and vertical farming, we could further shrink our “foodprint” by at least three quarters, thus freeing up more space for nature to flourish."

That is just silly speculation. For example, vertical farming may just be a vehicle for impact investors in silicon valley to diversity their portfolio into the new hot mega trend of saving the planet.

Its hard to justify a high-tech intensive verticle potato farm as net effective than just having half the mouths to feed from a traditional potato field.

As i replied to the sibling comment, coming from another species perspective it would be reasonable to assume that a world optimized to fulfill the need of another species, such as humans would be seen as negative. It's not like they can enact their discontent, so i would argue we have to account for other species as well when we remodel the natural world.

Evolutionary adaptation takes a while, so its not nice to change things fast.

Or we can assume that the state of the world before humans was a state that we have deviated from though human agency, and it is reasonable to remedy some of that irreversible trajectory would be a good cause that some other intelligent species could undertake after we're gone.

Certainly, it was just more of a general criticism toward such a view, as leading to long term degradation of the world. I totally get how humans would always protitize humanity first, but in the long term we have some issues such as overfishing, global warming, biodiversity loss etc. as a result. But the esiest would of course to not belive in thos issues, and have cool toys

This is a good example of a very narrow human centric view that captures why its bad to try to maximize for particular made up metrics, such as human utility. It also a wonderfully hare brained view of technolocial innovation that disregards the dark sides, material input, or externalities at all.

Is this person an economist or something?

Isn't it quite naive to use a calculation of the path of least resistance to account for travel costs which the whole argument relies upon? Early civilizations would settle close to rivers and travel on th rivers and along the coasts. It seems like this model does not take this into account.

So when they calculate differences in environmental barriers across continents, it seems important to take water ways into account, which would lead to eurasia having an upper hand over at least NA and Africa. I'm not saying that Diamonds original argument holds, and its great that they try to test the hypothesis.

There has been a lot happening in Norway in the last five years when it comes to farming kelp. The industry is still in its infancy, but I know one company that have invested toward expanding production toward 100,000 mtn.

It's a lot of exciting new problems to handle though. How do you conserve biomass, preventing it from rotting without using excessive energy. Kelp is high in iodine, so for human consumption how do you get it out? Labor is very expensive, so how do automate seed production and harvesting? And how do you find a market and ship the product there?

As a consumer you should ask if the fish has been bottom trawled, just a MSC label is not enough.

Please eat fish that is pelagic such as herring and sardines. Otherwise long-line fished cod and salmon are fine as well as farmed fish.

In the emergence of new sectors backed by technology focused venture capital this scenario is to be expected though.

Often these bubbles are depicted as hype cycles, where you have inflated expectations of a particular technology, which show disappointing real world performance leading to a dip in confidence where ultimately a long term productive solution emerges.

Another way to think about this process is to take an evolutionary approach to technolgy development. Initially there's a lot variation of various firms trying to solve a particular problem, each with their own solution based on more or less novel technology. The issue is the selection phase where the technolgy competes in the real world and compete not only against other technological solutions but in a sociotechnical system including e.g. regional institutions such as local culture, regulations, politics, markets that are often aligned with the existing industry. Ultimately one or a few solutions are retained and integrated into our collective infrastructure and provide a consistant solution to the original problem, and in a capitalistic model - profitable returns.

Only high value species are interesting for the cultivated meat indsutry. The overwhelming majority of salmon is farmed, especially atlantic salmon [1, page 17]. Yellowtail tuna is increasinly farmed as well, but sure wild stocks of tuna are still getting depleted.

Eating chicken or some other meat is not better than eating fish.

In case anyone is curious about cell cultured seafood as well, here's a paste from a reply I made elsewhere:

I like to look at GFI's yearly state of alternative seafood reports [1] to get a sense of the landscape. New harvest has a good list of research they have funded which gets into the weeds a bit [2], check this one for example [3]. We wrote some pros and cons in my recent article that may be interesting [4].

This is a list of some players: Finless Foods, BlueNalu, Wildtype, Shiok Meats, Bluu Seafood. Most are at the pilot plant stage and have announced reaching market this or next year. Note that the investment landscape have changed dramatically last year, so timelines will likely change.

Finally: I think its going to be exciting to see alternatives coming out soon. For me the pros are definitely welfare and biodiversity related, while the cons are feed and co2 related.

The norwegian salmon farming indsutry is endelssy facinating. Such a young industry has grown from the invention of floating open net pen cages in western norway in the 50s to a 1,4 million tonne export in 2020 worth approximately 7 billion dollars.

Due to the technical and biological challenges of food production in the sea as well as the environmental and social pressures to transform the industry, it is now one of the most innovative food production sectors in the world.

Digitalization and AI counting of parasites [0], lasers to remove lice [1] and huge offshore installations to minimize coastal impact [2] and crispr sterilized fish [3] are some examples of innovation happening right now in the sector.

Exciting stuff, congrats on the launch!

Does this mean that you are able to create adherent culture while still facilitating metabolic activities in multi-layer tissue?

I'd be interested in the papers and if you could, summarize your contributions and/or your dissertation. Thanks!

To compliment Gordons reply, here's a (norwegian) overview of the environmental conditions around the farms: https://www.fiskeridir.no/Akvakultur/Drift-og-tilsyn/Overvaa...

The last years they have hovered around 95% being very good or good. So statistically you are very wrong. But sure there are some localities that have bad conditions, and those should be closed and new localities should be opened for those farmers. Such as offshore localities when the technology is mature. Many smart people are trying to figure that out with strong scientific backing, but the report from havmerden is avaliable to read if you understand norwegian

In norway there are many environmental institutions following the state of the fjords, so I wouldn't be too concerned.

Thank you for your thoughful and interesting reply!

First off, you are absolutely correct in fish welfare being a huge issue. I am in no way condoning the current practices that lead to an average of 20% mortalities in the sea phase in norway, and around 5-10% in regions such as tasmania not affected by sea lice.

Cleaner fish is also a worrying issue with very questionable fish health pactices. Fortunately there are stronger regulations being implemented, that will help remedy some of these issues. One trivial example is that farmers are now required to feed the cleaner fish, whereas they were not before.

I agree that you can absolutely see some horribel looking cages and fish with health issues. The industry explanation is that the percentage that is sick will most likely swim toward the surface and thus give the wrong impression. I say, increase the omega 3 from 1% to 3% and imrpove the quality of the smolt we will surely see benefits.

both offshore and land-based have their issues. net-pen is incredibly efficient and beautiful in its simplicity when it works and the locality is optimal. Salmon will be reared at maximum 25kg/m3, but on land they wanna do 50kg+/m3 to be profitable. They wont do more than 100, as you will see decreasing fish health. For comparison tilapia is known to be farmed at 600kg/m3 in some regions.

Land-based farming will be interesting for sure, and a compeltely new set of issues regarding pathogens and Co2, H2S, NH4 problems. I'm sure they will figure it out. Atlantic Sapphire sure has a lot riding on figuring fish health on land out. Not very promising with the big emergency slaughter the other week.

let me know if you wanna have a chat at some point, always intersting to look at the industry with different eyes.

I'm doing a Ph.D. in salmon farming, it's an exciting field for sure. Just to address some common misconceptions:

* The feed used for norwegian salmon is about 70-80% plant based, so the fish is a net producer of marine protein. The majority is soy, and the industry is trying to transition to sustainable feed ingredients such as insects (see Protix) and micro algae for EPA/DHA (See veramaris)

* The farmed salmon does not contain any contaminents over allowed limits and they do frequent tests (see https://sjomatdata.hi.no/#/seafood/1577)

* The indsutry is beginning to transition from traditional net-pen farming to offshore, land-based and into cell-based and plant-based production, thus also getting production closer to market and spread over areas that may be less susceptible to pollution.
