Das Erdklima bewegt sich gerade in einer Freakzone extrem unwahrscheinlicher Ereignisse.

Das bekommen zu wenige mit, deswegen kommen hier all die krassen Klima-Charts, die ihr sehen solltet 🧵

@JannikWempe @stolinski @JannikWempe this advice from you saved me from so much headache already!

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@JannikWempe @hashnode Congratulations for shipping this! 👏👏👏

@EricHallahan @ggerganov @AiEleuther Besides this, hyperparameter need to be adapted, which should be too bad.
Also I'm not able to tell if actual usage of weights differ for the more compley layers (as I'm also struggling to find how they are actually loaded in hugging face).

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

If I understand @ggerganov's approach for 🦙.cpp correctly, it should also be doable to use his ggml with the fine-tuned GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B model that @togethercompute released last weekend as part of OpenChatKit, right?

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@EricHallahan @ggerganov @AiEleuther I digged through the GGML impl of GPT-J today (https://t.co/eEdVXIM1ni) and compared it to the 🤗GPT-NeoX implementation.
A lot made sense for me, but I'm not able to tell if especially the attention layer implementation matches, as I'm not familiar enough with the maths.

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@ggerganov Ooh this is awesome. If the chance is that this could work, I will definitely dig into this as well!

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

Thanks to llama.cpp I can run inference with LlaMA-30B model on my AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 4750U / 32GB RAM laptop and this is just 🤯

@JannikWempe - functions with sideffects

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@JannikWempe - (outdated) comments

My take: whenever you feel a comment is necessary, extract a function or variable and give it a proper name. Works often even for "why" comments

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@Jonatthu @maxlynch Totally agree. I am using ionic/capacitor myself and it definitely was key to me to successfully building apps with existing skills.

I just highlighted one pro/con between these technologies that bothers me and is related to both using a rendering engine.

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@Jonatthu @maxlynch Can you elaborate why that might not be an advantage to actually control rendering? (from a framework perspective)

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@maxlynch * Blurry background filters don't work Properly

And (not a bug, but different behavior) : pain with efficient webview behavior when keyboard is opened.

Not the fault of ionic/capacitor, but it did costs me days of caring about internals I didn't want to care about (3/3)

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

@maxlynch * ios keyboard state is not resetted after clearing an input (autocomplete keeps old chars for example) that's quite essential for a chat
* app became unusable since Safari reimplemented video loading behavior and capacitor wasn't adapted yet
(2/3)

[Stefan Burnicki @_sburnicki]

One thing we definitely learned the hard way 🫠

[AppventureTime @Appventure_Time]

App Store Optimization is something we didn't think about at first. We read articles, hired a professional and still managed to fuck it up. Don't do what we did!

This is the Twitter page for our blog. Follow it and don't miss any of our learnings and fuckups!

[AppventureTime @Appventure_Time]

Seven years ago, we started developing and publishing apps. None were a success but we learned a great many things from the real world of app development.

In our blog, Appventuretime, we want to share everything that went well and everything we fucked up 🫠
