@ScriptedAlchemy You do not have enough VRAM for any of the large open weight models. Example GLM 5 is 1.5 TB on disk which will 1.7 loaded into ram. Then you will need a large context window so you are probably looking at close to 2TB of ram needed for fine tuning.

I have a B200 cluster. Looking to fine tune a model. What’s the best OSS model that’s near GPT 5.4 or opus 4.7

Made my first skill today /rtfm Hopefully the clanker(s) follow instructions.

@trashh_dev That's no way to talk about your wife.

welp. she’s broken.

@trashh_dev little dict

@davepl1968 @ChShersh Just wait until you see neovim.

@ChShersh I use vi every day. What's the m for?

In the age of AI, knowing Vim still helps me daily. Truly a timeless essential skill to have.

@lexfridman Love all that you do. Only podcast that I watch/listen to all the way through.

This life is fucking amazing. I'm so grateful to be alive, with all of you on this miracle of a planet. Oh and I'm sorry if I fuck things up sometimes. I'm a flawed human. But I promise to do whatever I can to try to add some more understanding and love to this world. After the world leader convos I get attacked intensely by all sides, and many disparate online communities. It has led to some really low points for me mentally. But I don't matter. I'm listening. I'll do better. And I'll try to find the strength to do more of them, always with rigor and backbone, seeking to truly understand. And despite accusations, I do extremely high amounts of research, sometimes 100+ hours for a conversation. Ask many of my previous guests. But when I come to the table, I put all that aside, and make it all about the other person. I don't ever try to sound smart. I know the vastness of my ignorance. But I'm trying. Sometimes I do fuck up and sound like a douche, or do something incredibly cringe. And I hate myself right after. But I'd rather fail and embarrass myself a million times, than not do what my heart says is right. And besides world leaders, historians, CEOs, engineers, etc, this year I want to travel the world and talk to a lot more everyday people on and off the mic. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time. Anyway this is written while on I'm on a 10 mile run, probably procrastinating, since to type I have to walk and not run 🤣 But I did just get stopped by a super smart and kind girl who works at a humanoid robotics company here. And she asked if she can give me a hug to thank me for being me. Sometimes the universe sends you a message that even a dumb dude like me can almost hear. I really needed that today. Thank you for the hug and the kindness 🙏 I'm just hoping she was real and I didn't just imagine that 🤣 Then again if I went full crazy might as well enjoy it! Back to the run. I love you all! ❤️

@davepl1968 Dave, totally respect your prepective most of the time. In 1986 the estimated population of the US was 240M. Based on Nelson reporting an estimated 40M people including 2.5M students watched the desaster live. So we are looking at 85% that did not watch it live.

I pulled 99.9 out of my butt to be sure, so let's do the actual math. Let's grant that "millions" of school kids watched live. With 350M people, that still means 99.4% of the population did not. Seems like a lot of pushback for the right side of the decimal point. And you can keep adding millions and millions more watching, and I suppose get yourself down to 98% or 97%... All of which proves my point. Ask actual people if they saw it live. See if you get anything close to 97% of people saying "no". You will not. I never said NO ONE saw it live. I said people were generally not watching them by that point and that MOST people who think they saw it live, did not. I still believe that.

@elonmusk So what hsppens what LLMs are being trained on their own written content?

AI content will vastly exceed all human content

@MaMoMVPY Look up neural networks which trys to mimic the human brain. Our brain is a complex prediction engine. But the thing that makes us human is not our brains but our soul or spirit. Things that a prediction engine will never achieve.

No Claude do not have an IQ of anything. It is a prediction machine. A prediction machine trained on more data now than 3 years ago. But that's all. It has ZERO intelligence.

@davepl1968 @NAIRA680411 If we can use scientific notation 9E8 or 900 million.

@NAIRA680411 7581

99.9% will fail.!! Tell me the number that is bigger than this.??

baby humpback, love being out on the ocean

@trashh_dev We are in a small town are card shops suck. Any places in LA or SF you recommend?

@derekdamko just take to your local card store. they’re most likely fake or you just got insanely lucky

OK Pokémon ppl my son grabbed these on eBay $100. Seems like the seller didn't know what he had or these are fake. What is the best path to get the authenticity of these? PSA?

@davepl1968 @juniorkingpp A quarter today from 1938 is worth about $5.63. 2200% inflation so $7.25 is not bad.

@juniorkingpp 2800% is not enough? How much is enough?

A $7 increase in over 80 years. Fucking shameful!

@davepl1968 @komonews Same here in California.

@komonews Now ask yourself why it's a buck fifty higher than the national average. You voted. You get the taxes you deserve, I guess.

in either technology or management technique, which by itself promises even one order of magnitude improvement in productivity, in reliability, in simplicity.

So we hear desperate cries for a silver bullet, something to make software costs drop as rapidly as computer hardware costs do. But, as we look to the horizon of a decade hence, we see no silver bullet. There is no single development 👇

From a paper by Frederick Brooks, No Silver Bullet—Essence and Accident in Software Engineering 1986. Even though it is 40 years ago seems to still ring true today. Maybe even more so. 🧵👇
