Heidi's more abstract work on generalizing consensus as grids/matrices of intersecting registers is geoemtric.

I think it's fair to say they had achieved product-market fit when their revenues were growing deep triple digits month over month. What we're seeing now is that perhaps they have achieved profitability or at the least a more sustainable balance sheet.

This was already known to be true by Heidi Howard’s research that yielded Flexible Paxos[0], Relaxed Paxos[1], and her more general thesis on Distributed consensus[2] as a whole

AWS has CLIs and SDKs in many languages.

People laugh at this, myself included in the past, but it works. I remember scoffing at AWS partnering with Deloitte and Accenture over a decade ago. My exact thoughts were "Our technology is great, why do we need these people to sell it?", and it turns out that selling to enterprises at scale is a lot more like an American high school experience than anything else.

This is what I ended up doing. A 2.5G switch for the few devices that can use it and a 1Gbit+PoE switch for all the other PoE and 1Gbit and less devices.

I use Pi at home and Claude Code at work (no choice). I use bone stock Pi. No extensions.

You should try it out. I'm incredibly impressed with Qwen 3.5 27B for systems programming work. I use Opus and Sonnet at work and Qwen 3.x at home for fun and barely notice a difference given that systems programming work needs careful guidance for any model currently. I don't try to one shot landing pages or whatever.

At 8-bit quantization (q8_0) I get 20 tokens per second on a Radeon R9700.

Wouldn’t Cursor agreeing to such a deal be almost ironclad proof they are subsidizing tokens/inference out the ass? There’s wide speculation all the large revenue growing companies right now are selling inference at break even or a loss.

Are the mainboards and upgrade kits available for purchase now or just the whole laptop?

He doesn't work at Vercel but he is the type to never pass up any opportunity to chase clout.

I have both HW3 (2021 Y) and HW4 (2025 3). FSD in the HW4 is a delight. FSD in HW3 phantom brakes constantly both back when FSD was a pile of C++ and now with the "Lite" driving model. I don't see how Tesla can ever make FSD suitable on HW3 given the hardware (<200 TOPS).

You are right that it is an environment variable, and that's how I have it set in my nix config. Thanks for correcting that.

Unfortunately llama.cpp is somewhat notorious for having lackluster docs. Most of the CLI tools don't even tell you what they are for.

Have you tried running llama.cpp with Unified Memory Access[1] so your iGPU can seamlessly grab some of the RAM? The environment variable is prefixed with CUDA but this is not CUDA specific. It made a pretty significant difference (> 40% tg/s) on my Ryzen 7840U laptop.

Not sure why you're being downvoted, I guess it's because how your reply is worded. Anyway, Qwen3.7 35B-A3B should have intelligence on par with a 10.25B parameter model so yes Qwen3.5 27B is going to outperform it still in terms of quality of output, especially for long horizon tasks.

All Microsoft services are for entertainment purposes only, as in you’d have to be absolutely crazy enough to use before a Microsoft sales rep has taken your execs to a steakhouse and strip club.

The optionality of consuming services from places other than internet titans for one would be nice.
