I run it with Llama.cpp on my RTX 3090. Also using the same Unsloth model.

My config is similar to: https://github.com/noonghunna/club-3090/blob/master/docs/eng...

I need to try out some of the other set ups mentioned in this repo for increased TPS.

Per the title, this is a leaked benchmark. It’s not an Ars Technica full benchmark article.

Regarding market share and your friends and family recommendations, you’re thinking first world. Rest of the world wants and can only afford sub-$500 laptops.

It’s all relative. I’m at 24.4% but I have quite a few devices like Wemo light switches at the top of my DNS queries. Only have one Amazon Alexa device but that’s near the top as well.

IoT devices which constantly phone home will skew things.

There’s not many free as in open source alternatives out there. There’s traditional CAD such as Fusion 360 which gives you a limited amount of designs and is “free” for non-commercial use.

So then under the open source, own your designs umbrella you have stuff like FreeCAD which is similar to traditional CAD which means you have a learning curve.

OpenSCAD is programmatic which suits someone with a software engineering background. Plus being free in the sense of owning your designs.

His original sentence was life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

So you can’t agree with the original sentence and then say he “absolutely deserved to be released.”

Without the chance of parole, a pardon from the president is one of the few ways he could get out of jail.

Quick correction: I currently use Wezterm on Linux and it has tabs. Alacritty does not for developer philosophical reasons.

Looking forward to checking out Ghostty.

I started using Devenv which utilizes Nix. You might want to check that out.

The article says:

Average response size also halved from 1506 bytes to 778 bytes, the compression algo in the Rust library must be better than the one in the JS library

If you want to watch a film similar to these themes, check out Playtime from 1967 by Jacques Tati. Something I watched recently.

Playtime works wonderfully as a cinematic satire of contemporary society and our roles.

The film's office scenes are particularly striking because they visualize the dehumanizing aspects of modern office design that cubicle farms would later become notorious for - the uniformity, the loss of privacy despite physical separation, and the way architecture can make people behave more like components in a machine than individuals.

The thing about Playtime is the constant onslaught of appropriate explorations on the theme of an increasingly technical life.

By the time the end of Playtime rolls by, what you get is an examination of what it is like to be human and hopefully you feel a sense of joy in being a part of the human race.

At a former workplace I wrote this tool which was put to use.

It utilizes GPG to store the secrets and Golang templates to support the files.

In the function signature, the return variable err is type error. Since it is named it is also defined and initialized as nil.

In the code, an error is found and it does not assign a value to err and just returns it as the error value.

So it returns nil as the error when it wants to return an error with a proper value.

The code should be something like:

    if ctx.Err() != nil {
      return 0, 0, ctx.Err()
    }

The human could discuss with the officer and say they were waiting for someone or be asked to move on out of the bike lane. The difference being the human interaction.

Don’t forget his Billionaire status came from fraudulent activities (taking other people’s money).

This isn’t punishing entrepreneurs.

Having done the ink jet song and dance for a while with multiple printers over the years I bought a color laser jet Brother HL-3170CDW printer 10 years ago for $170. Wireless and it just works. Economical as well with the cartridges.

For photo quality I just use the local pharmacy.

It makes “sense” based on the domain of the cloud provider being DevOps teams who are maintaining and using these CLI tools. Ie. What they use day to day.

For anything more advanced they offer language specific SDKs in Rust, Swift, Kolton, etc…

For example integrating storage in an iOS app.
