electroglyph··on How to hide from killer drones

electroglyph··on 14× faster embeddings: how we rebuilt the ONNX path in Manticore
ONNX has AVX512 CPU kernels too, and openvino uses ONNX internally (and ONNX supports openvino backend)
electroglyph··on 14× faster embeddings: how we rebuilt the ONNX path in Manticore
it's a pain in the ass to do properly.

what we really need it something like auto-round for ONNX

electroglyph··on 14× faster embeddings: how we rebuilt the ONNX path in Manticore
ONNX is my first suggestion to people looking for speed gains on CPU
electroglyph··on Show HN: An ASCII 3D Rendering Engine
heh, i came here to say basically the same thing
electroglyph··on Good results fine tuning a local LLM like Qwen 3:0.6B to categorize questions
existing embedding models like alibaba's modernbert tune or one of the jina v5s would probably map query to category automatically. (i.e. store embeddings of each category and calculate cosine sim for each incoming query vs. categories and pick the closest)

also, you could stick a classifier head on a BERT model as another option.

electroglyph··on The time the x86 emulator team found code so bad they fixed it during emulation
heh, when Raymond Chen dunks on the MSVC team =)
electroglyph··on AI is code – and can't be prompted into being smarter
it's probably a lie
electroglyph··on DeepSeek V4 Pro beats GPT-5.5 Pro on precision
deepseek 4 pro is insanely good for the price
electroglyph··on Nvidia is proposing a beast of a CPU system for Windows PCs
that link actually recommends not doing it from UEFI and doing it via software
electroglyph··on KVarN: Native vLLM backend for KV-cache quantization by Huawei
any divergence (even if the benchmark is better) from full precision is error
electroglyph··on Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele in Conversation (2018)
this is better than TFA
electroglyph··on FBI Arrests CIA Official with $40M in Gold Bars in His Home
sometimes i wonder if the left hand knows what the right is doing. it looks like we arrested our own spy in this case: https://www.politico.com/news/2026/05/25/american-journalist...
electroglyph··on Norway's 2 petabytes of Huawei flash storage and LLM training
absolutely. somebody online was wanting an LLM with Georgian language support, and that's exactly what i suggested: start digitizing Georgian text.

i'll upvote this each time it's submitted
electroglyph··on Qwen3.7-Max: The Agent Frontier
you should be using dflash with that model, look it up
electroglyph··on DeepSeek-V4-Flash means LLM steering is interesting again
heretic maintainer: https://github.com/p-e-w/heretic

the fun bits are in another branch or PRs

electroglyph··on DeepSeek-V4-Flash means LLM steering is interesting again
p-e-w was just talking about this the other day in his Discord. seems doing the one neuron method is quite bad for KLD and that's why the newer techniques have stuck.
electroglyph··on Seeing Birdsong
site has so little information there doesn't seem to be much to discuss
electroglyph··on A polynomial autoencoder beats PCA on transformer embeddings
this looks awesome. i've been struggling with vector compression, and have been trying PCA + all sorts of rotations. looking forward to trying this out
electroglyph··on Making LLM Training Faster with Unsloth and NVIDIA
nice writeup! looking forward to doing some more training as soon as i get some more data sorted. it'll be a custom arch, but i'll probably shoehorn it into unsloth for a speed boost.
electroglyph··on Train Your Own LLM from Scratch
you can train it, but not fully
electroglyph··on Opus 4.7 knows the real Kelsey
that's in the ideal scenario where it's only seen a single copy of it tho
electroglyph··on New copy of earliest poem in English, written 1,3k years ago, discovered in Rome
it was 1.3e-6 billion years ago!
electroglyph··on Microsoft and OpenAI end their exclusive and revenue-sharing deal
i'm doing inference on a free mi300x instance from AMD right now. not sure if the software stack is just old or what, but here's what i've observed: stuck on an old version of vllm pre-Transformers 5 support. it lacks MoE support for qwen3 models. oss-120b is faaaar slower than it should be.

int8 quantization seems like it's almost supported, but not quite. speeds drop to a fraction of full precision speed and the server seems like it intermittently hangs. int4 quantization not supported. fp8 quantization not supported.

again, maybe AMD is just being lazy with what they've provided, but it's not a great look.

right now the fastest smart model i can run is full precision qwen3-32b. with 120 parallel requests (short context) i'm getting PP @ 4500 tokens/sec and TG @ 1300 tokens/sec

electroglyph··on Agents Aren't Coworkers, Embed Them in Your Software
but should you drive or walk to the car wash?
electroglyph··on Lambda Calculus Benchmark for AI
i dunno, Opus is losing it's edge imo. i regularly use a mix of models, including Opus, glm 5.1, kimi 2.6, etc. and i find that all of them are pretty much equally good at "average" coding, but on difficult stuff they're nearly equally bad. i can't deny that Opus has an edge, but it's not a huge one.
electroglyph··on Which one is more important: more parameters or more computation? (2021)
> they also don't know what they don't know

they sort of do tho:

how about a unicode art tool?
