I wonder if it's better in Antigravity? Their harness might help some? I haven't tested Argon out.
fshr··on Why isn't the industry freaking out about DeepSeek 4.1 Flash?
They're training on trillions of tokens. Isn't it highly unlikely that the under a thousand tokens about your "new science" would surface in a meaningful way?
fshr··on America.gov
The fact that it's showing Palo Alto / Menlo Park is disconcerting, but not surprising. Very strange.
fshr··on Show HN: Llama.cpp fork with 2-4x multiGPU speed for MoE models bigger than VRAM
Are you going to / have you tried to contribute this to the main repo? Is the fork for visibility for job hunting?
fshr··on Kimi Code Desktop
I wonder how many users there are of apps like this considering how many 3rd party options already exist with far more features and users. It seems like creating these is just a checkbox that's being ticked rather than a need being met.

Is it definitely out of the question?

fshr··on Benchmarking Qwen3.8 27B quantizations: 4-bit holds up, 1-bit collapses
> 5060

I think you're referring to a 5060Ti 16GB, yes?

32k context is easily done there. 64k can work with a more aggressive quant, but you lose a bit of speed.

fshr··on Show HN: Ink – Deploy full-stack apps from AI agents via MCP or Skills
Why would that be necessary? Their product isn't a framework, isn't related to console apps, and isn't directly related to React.

If it's a permanent reference to a record wouldn't /sets/2546/pics/8597 make more sense?

Did you actually throw it away or returned it?
fshr··on Heathrow scraps liquid container limit
A bus isn't going to fall out of the air and land in the ocean. A bus isn't going to be hijacked and flown into the top of a building.
fshr··on Anthropic raises $13B Series F
Well, compare them to Microsoft: 50 years old with 228,000 employees and $282 billion in revenue.
fshr··on PEP 750 – Template Strings (t-strings) have been accepted
I believe that jab was that PHP has a bunch of ways to do similar things and Python, in their view, is turning out that way, too.
fshr··on DeepSeek surpasses ChatGPT in new monthly visits

I think you would be better off having the LLM help you build up the plot with high level chapter descriptions and then have it dig into each chapter or arc. Or start by giving it the beats before you ask it for help with specifics. That'd be better at keeping it on rails.
fshr··on Mark Klein, AT&T whistleblower who revealed NSA mass spying, has died
Can you give an example of a country where you think the population would do something violent or upending if they had an Elon?
fshr··on Microsoft unveils Majorana 1 quantum processor
But that's not a good branding name. Would you argue that a mini fridge should only be marketed as a miniature refrigerator? It's a mouthful. Why does the name that's used for branding need to show up in Nature?
fshr··on Musk-led group makes $97B bid for control of OpenAI
To me it seems to have very little to do with his antics. Surely inflation, market saturation, and increased competition is more probable?
fshr··on What we know about CEO shooting suspect
My guess is he was referring to financial predators. Greed and lust rather than wrath.
fshr··on Earth Is on the Brink of Breaching a 7th of Nine 'Planetary Boundaries'
We've got about 6 billion adults. I think we can be concerned with and address multiple threats at the same time. It's not a zero sum game of risk avoidance.
fshr··on One in five genetics papers contains errors thanks to Excel (2016)
> Expecting you to learn the basics about the tools you're using is not expecting too much.

Do you/have you worked in a corporate environment? You seem to have an idealistic view about how end users are expected to use Excel.

fshr··on Phind-405B and faster, high quality AI answers for everyone
It'd be cool if you showed off and did your own comparison and posted it on your blog. It'd also be cool if your blog was sorted newest to oldest - it's currently the reverse.
fshr··on Phind-405B and faster, high quality AI answers for everyone
Why not let us try the new model for free like the 5 uses available for the 70B model? Seems like a no brainer to hook new users if what you're selling is worth it, eh?
fshr··on Kotlin for data analysis
Maybe a little odd, but it did start with Python. I mean, Jupyter stands for Julia, Python, and R already - so it's not too weird they just keep using the same file format.
fshr··on Friends don't let friends export to CSV
There's definitely a big distribution disparity. 11 of the 15 most populous countries use the period for decimals.
fshr··on TSMC is having more luck building in Japan than in America
We don't need to eat the whole pie! We'd still get the taxes, wages, institutional training to develop skilled labor, and onshoring. Let them keep their IP and profit from their evolution.
fshr··on Deno in 2023
The compiled option isn’t intended for serverless or edge uses, you just deploy the source files and the platform takes over.

maybe "barely doing anything" is better than doing nothing, though?
fshr··on Jeff Lawson steps down as CEO of Twilio
> You can’t sell software until you’ve built it
