And the advanced planets looked like the SFU campus.

As someone who lives in Vancouver, that’s a huge relief. I won’t have to adapt to new biomes once we go offworld.

That’s 24GB VRAM. Not enough to run a 27B model at a useful quant+context size.

I built a little research dashboard that monitors new papers from specific research labs. There is a paper ingest skill that writes Python scripts using pdfplumber to dismantle pdf’s. I have also used it to fetch supplementary information to replicate/augment the published tables. It can also use plotdigitizer to extract raw data from plots.

I extensively use open source Chinese LLM’s for coding. Reading the reasoning traces, especially when planning and debugging code, is valuable. I will pause the llm when immediately when it’s made incorrect assumptions. Often I see I mention erroneous stuff in the reasoning that doesn’t show in the final response. And I’ll copy/paste phrases directly from the reasoning traces and explain why this is incorrect.

Safari reader mode on mobile works great. But then again, this is a site where you should not need it.

Organized/scripted scalping isn’t new at all in the Western world. Just look at concert/game tickets. It assumed that if you really need it, you’ll alarm clock the release and even then might end up paying a scalper.

In Valve’s, they’re raffling the opportunity to make a purchase. For a generalized Vickery auction, it’s assumed the buyer will complete the bid, but that’s not so in valve’s case. What’s a good solution when there is a significant % of bids that do not complete the purchase?

I made the same switch. Impressed with the sheer value of Deepseek v4 Pro and Minimax M3 so far. I mostly work on an open source academic simulation tool, so I’m happy to be a source of training data.

Imagine security cameras everywhere. Oh wait, we already have that.

Imagine llm’s analyzing every frame of every security camera everywhere (including shared ones like stores, flock, ring etc). Then an agentic judge issues warrants.

Downside: Code is not mature; can have edge cases, bugs and security issues. Likely limited config options without hardcoding features

Upside: Only the features you actually need. Likely fewer dependencies. You know exactly what your yak looks like under the fur.

In academia that translates to, the more senior the faculty member, the easier the talk is to understand.

This is software I paid for specifically because I didn’t want a subscription. If I wanted to use Libreoffice instead, I would have.

That sounds lawsuit worthy. If you submitted both sets of paperwork at the same time, a reasonable expectation would be for your opt-opt application to be processed first, otherwise it’s pointless.

They do exist and involved in archiving. Someone reached out to our amateur radio club and offered to archive any documents we might have. They even asked to archive the video recording of one of our monthly meetings.

That unlocked a memory of me seeing my computer lab teacher after class in 5th or 6th grade to ask her about the applications of PEEK and POKE. I’d picked up a copy of the GW-BASIC manual from a used bookstore. She’d never heard of those commands. Ended up promptly locking up one of the school computers by poking random numbers to random addresses.

That was my favorite class. Still remember the game where I mostly (t) threw my wakizashi (b) at enemies.
