64-bit Windows was being worked on for 2003. x64 XP was in fact a build of 2003, and beta-wise, guess what Windows 2210 referenced in the readme is... ;) (haven't tried it yet)

Not weird at all, given the variance in Opus' quality over the last few months.

wild guess - I wouldn't be surprised if Opus 4.6 was run quantized for a while, and 4.7/4.8 have QAT for that nerfed size.

Gee. I wonder why that would be allowed to happen.

Lol... in this case, cheese imports from China are much cheaper, just not quite as good.

And for those who are all "but dur CCP get all ur data" you can use things like AWS Bedrock (at least for earlier versions of Deepseek and Qwen for now) and have more familiar people get all your data. Or buy (at obnoxiously inflated prices) your own HW and not send your data to anyone.

It looks like Supermicro had some DDR3 Xeon v3/v4 boards, and the first thing that came to mind was a Shenzen workstation/gaming board using recycled parts... haven't searched on that but it's bound to exist.

There are repos on github. Which, technically, means you can download Windows source from Microsoft. Just not legally.

It's the Alder Lake MAX. Originally decent design just pushed too far.

Not offhand alas, but I figure someone's bound to have made one by now...

RP2350. 5v tolerant IO if set up correctly, enough GPIO's and the PIO's to trigger everything at once, and more than enough speed to emulate flash.

Smart(sic)Media is just a NAND flash interface really.

Ah, the 2000's, when CompactFlash cards weren't that compact, and SmartMedia wasn't at all smart.

If it's worth it to you, you could try running it on Deepseek v4 flash which is very cheap right now...

I actually finally got started with CC after 4.6. ;)

The output is certainly prodigious (I can do things for side projects that I'd be very unlikely to finish on my own), but it's not a coding prodigy so it hasn't dislodged me from the idea that it's outsourcing.

Overall, yes, quite remarkable.

China also picked up (from A123) and ran with LFP batteries which are inherently safer.

I think the gist of it still applies to even Claude Code w/Opus 4.6.

It's basically outsourcing to mediocre programmers - albeit very fast ones with near-infinite patience and little to no ego.

The fab was already taken apart and sold by then.

CD's have repatterened uncompressed data using scrambling codes to keep the waveform stable (i.e. ~50% on/off)

And a Laserdisc with digital sound literally has that CD audio EFM waveform in the lower frequencies.

Agreed - if you're only writing things with Claude Code that would exist anyway (largely day job things) you're missing out.

Having an AI-slop version of X for your own gratification is usually better than having no version at all.

Yeah this feels at least partially Claude-written to me too.

This is in the Qualcomm SOC chip, so it's not something that has to be designed into the phone per se.
