Me explaining AI to friends

@OpenBMB The speed difference shown must be with GGUF quants. Deploying the huggingface variants locally via vllm on a RTX 5090 I get around 88 tps for MiniCPM 4.1 8B and 138 tps for Ministral-3 8B.

@TateTheTalisman It is the other way around.

Strength and ability -> you want a fair playing field.

Uncompetitive and frail -> you want to make artificial rules in your favor, at the expense of the strong.

@brunbitty There is no conflict here. He is correct that btc is basically worthless. Fugazi. But you are also correct that if the "vibe" is right, it does not matter. Btc is not a stock and has no requirements for revenue or forward guidance, no checks and balances. Only vibes (and $MSTR).

@vikhyatk Awesome, now do VC valuations :)

@svpino Python being slow is just one attribute of the language. For some projects it is a deal breaker, for others it is not an issue. No reason to make it black and white.

@burkov Yes, this is one of the issues fixed by reasoning models. Allows it to prepare first and present later, which is not always possible when it is forced to produce output with a certain tone directly.

You dont need yarn, you dont need bun - you just need a proper dev-environment with a caching npm proxy.

@ChShersh The same reason most people aren't libertarians.

To refrain from controlling others is a rare ability.

The War in Ukraine in American context

In such a polarised country as the U.S., Russian invasion of Ukraine was immediately weaponised by the opposing political forces and became a basis for mutual accusations. Some of these accusations sound very reasonable 🧵

@tedgioia A* pathfinding takes a little while.

It's just overfitting, they said. It just memorizes the data, they said.

The meaning of life:

We are the counteracting force to entropy.

Our role in the universe is to use the abundance of energy to maintain order where there would otherwise be nothing.

In that sense we are all good people.

You have to beat the system to be free of it.

Only way out is through.

Things that can be taught will eventually become table stakes.

Most things that can be taught aren’t worth learning
