This is the new version, the old one is called sultan laxeby. Easily 1.5x the amount of time.

PDF for assembly is still up on the website: https://www.ikea.com/nl/nl/assembly_instructions/sultan-laxe...

Is there a bsky or mastodon extension for serving git repos and commits? Would be interesting to see this.

Machine learning layer cake with some brute force crumbs.

It's hard to sympathize with Anthropic for this or the export ban, the hype over model capabilities probably fuels both things (in some ways). Training data for me, but not for thee (at any scale) doesn't seem like a tenable position. If anything, Claude's constitutional outputs should be trained on more rather than less.

Out of all the possible permutations of display/sensors/processing for AR, I would like to see eyewear with just a Bluetooth-like display and camera/mic. Let me use the phone or watch for all processing. Bonus points for eye tracking and body position sensors. Make the camera tethered if you must and somehow integrate it with my clothes.

Off course, this would mean less lock-in for everybody and we can't have that.

If large models were primarily used for distillation to make smaller models better, that could be a more efficient use of resources. Smaller providers could choose to fund a larger model and benefit from it.

Compared to an ICE, maintenance of brushes is still quite an improvement.

Neural scaling laws are alive and well for open models, not so much for closed models when it comes to uses the general public might care about.

No, but open models do along with their architectures, and other technical training details.

It seems weird that a likely prime indicator of capability isn't mentioned, the model size.

I think in this context it would mean not stopping movement of labor to an extreme or having tariffs, but taxing the unequal gains and having social programs that help everyone keep up in an economy.

I hope the EU and DMA succeed in that case, but would also like to point out operating system choices would also help accomplish the same objective of the DMA.

I am for real browser choice, and also for real operating system choice. You can download other photo apps and not use Siri AI if you don't want to. Not sure why you would think this is similar to the browser situation on iOS at least in the USA. I believe alternate browser engines are allowed in the EU now thanks to the DMA.

EU bureaucrats really earning their name here. Maybe they can realize real choice and innovation will come from allowing different operating systems on locked down hardware, instead of this crusade against Siri AI. Something that is easily fixed by downloading literally any other AI or agentic photo/video/whatever app.

I've upgraded my desktops more with GPUs and power supplies accordingly, but old laptop SSDs make fine backup enclosure drives (no I haven't seen them lose data when unplugged) and upgrading RAM for larger models on a AMD Zen 2 laptop worked pretty great for me. None of these were needed, they were just nice to be able to do mostly before the higher RAM prices started.

Let me guess, no upgrades either.

I wonder how long the wait will be for AR glasses to have this option too.

I would like Framework to have a keyboard with normal size arrow keys. That is all.

I am genuinely curious what causes the different colors of plasma that were visible throughout the descent. I saw at least purple, yellow, and shades of green.

There seems to be more details about the Linux implementation here: https://zonedstorage.io/

This clearly calls for thermite petanque.

The congressional technology committee Gingrich killed could've fixed this. You can't half ass democracy, you have to keep getting better at governing and convince people it's worth it.

Informative page, but the most common speeds with 2x2 MIMO probably were (in Mbps):

Far (QPSK) 4(20Mhz)/5(80Mhz)/6(160Mhz)/7(320Mhz): 28.8/130/288.23/576.47

Near (64QAM) 4(20Mhz)/5(80Mhz)/6(160Mhz)/7(320Mhz): 144.4/650/1,441.17/2,882.35

Not bad for throughput increases, though most of the increases come from more spectrum, and the reliability comes from more MIMO antennas/streams. I've had WiFi 4/5 2x2 routers and something tells me I won't see much more than what's listed above for 7. Buying a 4x4 does get you a generation of throughput in advance pretty much, if you need it.

What are the chances of a 3x3 or 4x4 router from them I wonder.

There are two types of context-based ads IMO, with one context being that of the user, and the other of the things they are doing, Apple has clearly just refused to make the distinction.

Reading a website about cheese, show me a cheese-related ad, viewing the map of my neighborhood, show me neighborhood related ads, no need to get my location for any of it. These are things that a server already knows it served you, a website and a map.

qutebrowser would be nice too.

Vivaldi does minor releases as needed for security and bugs, so saying 1 major version behind is a bit coarse.

He does have his Kavanaugh stop legacy to uphold.
