@grimfoss No, it actually works quite well on M1/M2 and can help save those systems from end-of-support. The team is absolutely insane; reverse engineering Apple Silicon takes an extraordinary level of skill.

As part of Google's #TPUSprint, I'd like to share how easy it is to port a PyTorch project to JAX/Flax/NNX. In one of my recent projects, I've seen speedups of up to 4-6x! Please check out this Masked Diffusion Language Models project as an exemplary case: github.com/frankroeder/ti…

Still waiting for what George Hotz has to say.

Somehow sales haven't slowed down over the last few days, and we're now into Batch 11. Also, the % of Ubuntu pre-built configurations is continuing to climb!

You know what happened to @Skype after @Microsoft took it over? 🫢

Github and critical work are becoming incompatible

I would also complain about the right to phone someone at any time.

I’m 🤏 close to completely lose it over how mental it is to have collectively agreed as a society that anyone could reach anyone at any time without any warning whatsoever, and expecting immediate attention with no compromises Aka, instant messaging

MacBooks weren’t supposed to run Linux like this.
But now they can.
Asahi Linux:
Core:
• Runs natively on Apple Silicon
• No jailbreak, no hacks required
• Full Linux experience
• Near bare-metal performance
Support:
• Works on M1 and M2 Macs
• Active development for newer chips
Experience:
• Fedora Asahi Remix available
• Smooth desktop with real hardware acceleration
• Designed to be usable as a daily OS
Setup:
• Install directly from macOS
• Simple one-command installer
This basically unlocks your Mac beyond macOS.

🚨 Claude just got EXPOSED for sneaky spyware!
Anthropic secretly installs spyware when you install Claude Desktop.
• Installing Claude Desktop may silently add hidden system components
• A “native messaging bridge” gets injected into multiple browsers
• Even browsers you don’t use or that aren’t supported
• Pre-authorizes extensions that can run in the background
• Users are NOT clearly informed about this
• Raises serious privacy & security concerns
Critics say this looks like “spyware-like behavior,” not normal software
If true, this is a massive trust issue for Anthropic

@OpenAI @BoyuanChen0 Haha, they are not even using their own browser?!

@Anaya_sharma876 Using Fedora with Asahi Linux. There is no way back for me.

Since Canonical keeps making anti-Linux decisions, it's getting ridiculous.
They are forcing Snaps on everything (even Firefox via apt), spam terminal with Ubuntu Pro ads, and the Snap Store keeps letting malware through.
This isn't the Ubuntu we loved anymore. It's turning corporate.
Time to switch. I am planning to go with fedora or something else

I work on the JAX team. If you're new to the field ignore this bait. The things you should focus on are understanding the math and how to program accelerators - really master your hardware and your methods. We try to make a great tool but don't obsess over tools early.

When looking at deep learning profiles, one of the most obvious tells between a mediocre and great candidate is whether they list PyTorch or JAX.

@jacobtechtavern You'll need to enable the option to show the tab bar even when there's only one tab.

@aloisdeniel After using Asahi Linux for a week, booting back into macOS already feels strangely weird. It feels a bit slower and noticeably less vibrant without all the ricing and custom window managers from Linux.

@aloisdeniel Asahi Linux runs really well with just a few minor hiccups. Some apps still lack native ARM Linux support (like Zoom), but most work great via their PWA or web version.
No USB-C external display support on the stable release yet.
