It's still there.

Where it says "Thought for 20 seconds" - you can click the Chevron to expand it and see what I guess is the entire chain of thought.

Just be aware you don't get to use all of it. I believe you only get access to ~20.8GB of GPU memory on a 32GB Apple Silicon Mac, and perhaps something like ~48GB on a 64GB Mac. I think there are some options to reconfigure the balance but they are technical and do not come without risk.

Great stuff - and training was so cheap too - it would have cost less than $200 on Runpod, and half that price on spot instances.

I guess it's time languages other than Python, especially niche ones, started collating their own language specific datasets.

Personally, I daydream about an Elixir specific LLM I could run locally, trained or fine tuned to respond in an idiomatic fashion, and plug into a tool like Cursor.so.

Are there any examples of the internal dataset used in the 80K instruction / answer pairs Phind used to tune this?

Sensisble Soccer 4 years ago

I honestly believe SWOS 96/97 (Amiga version) is the greatest football game ever made. I've been playing it periodically ever since, whether through emulators (WinUAE) or bundles and mods like this that adds netcode and updated players. I'm not that great though, I played Playaveli (the guy behind this site) online about 12 years ago and he easily beat me - 6-3 if I remember correctly.

With Slots and JS Commands LiveView has almost everything now to be able to convert Bootstrap, Bulma or especially Tailwind UI into a really fantastic Phoenix/LiveView component library. Probably won't even require AlpineJS...

Although I think 'Declarative Assigns' from the roadmap (already in Surface UI) would make everything a bit nicer, it's not needed.

The Tailwind UI license will unfortunately prevent peoples implementations of that from being shared though.

In the UK at least - you get a pair of very nice Bose QC 35 IIs (RRP £299) free, if you buy soon.

These are selling on eBay for £200 currently, though I'm sure that price will drop a bit once the market gets flooded.

If you do sell at that price though, that brings the price of the phone down to £399, and at that price it is a steal.

The Pixel 4a is a great phone for £350, and this brings a bigger battery, faster CPU, 5G, wide-angle lens, 90hz screen, wireless charging, water resistance, and 2GB more memory for an extra £50 if you are able to offload the headphones.

Flutter for Linux 6 years ago

I've just tested on regular i3 (no Sway).

Works pretty well until you start moving or resizing the window but once I did it crashed the app a couple of times.

I also couldn't start the app fullscreen on a 4K display - it just displayed a small black rectangle. Other than that it felt fast and smooth.

It is an alpha though, so I thought it was promising nonetheless.

2013 - 2015, pre facelift MacBook Pro 13. Great Linux laptop, and a nice resolution without the scaling issues you will probably run into with a 4k screen. I run arch/i3wm on mine and it runs great. I had a new MBP like yours, but 'downgraded' to a 2015 model because it runs native Linux much better, and the keyboard is much less hassle too.

This is the principal behind 'all-on-4' dental implants. I've no idea how good they are though. I've seen a few YouTube videos but you never really know if they're paid shills nowadays.

I use Arch Linux / i3 on an early 2013 retina Macbook Pro, and it's just perfect. Took a little bit of time to set up, but everything works (including things like suspend, function keys, kb backlight etc) and with really good battery life. The resolution is just nice to use without having to worry too much about scaling issues.

I had a 32GB Dell i7 XPS15 with 4K display previously and this slightly old MBP runs Linux much better. As a bonus I can dual boot into MacOS too when I want to use Photoshop or whatever, but I very rarely do.

For a cheap, lightweight development laptop I use a Toshiba Chromebook 2 (2015) with a 240GB SSD fitted. Build quality is not up to Apple standards but is still decent.

Screen is much, much better than Macbook Air screen though. Battery life is very good. I use Arch Linux and With a bit of tweaking, everything works (bluetooth, wifi, keyboard backlight, suspend/resume etc).

I can also dual boot into ChromeOS which is quite nice in it's own right. Lovely machine for the money ...
