@tacobelmin @sierracatalina yeah, excuse me for a brief response to you excellent writeup, my bronchitis has gotten the best of me. this song embodies a lot of this - https://t.co/S0IOak4h4Y

@max_yana @sierracatalina they work a lot, and they respect their women alot - women who do physical labour get to retire at 55

[Vedran Rodic ♥ @vrodic]

@dhh I will never stop hoping for humble leaders that will know how to empower others and enjoy it - and just retire when the time comes.

@xaotica @Nukcognito @elonmusk @GeminiApp @GoogleWallet hmm im not an llm expert but eliza was an NLP program that used pattern matching, not an LLM

[Vedran Rodic ♥ @vrodic]

im not sure anybody could write a LLM back then, maybe a concept - but please provide a proof

Large Language models were technicaly possible only recenlty, I guess try writing it now in basic on a modern computer and youll have a cult following soon :)

maybe, now with a hindsight one could use 1 bit LLMs from microsoft to run a small version on underpowered computres

i guess iphone side is getting fed up with diminishing upgrades, but mac side is happy with the M series CPUs

everything changed for me when I bought my first Macbook Air M1

it would be heaven if they never left ObjectPascal and if something like Delphi for Mac was reality instead of Xcode

[Vedran Rodic ♥ @vrodic]

free tier ChatGPT works well mostly, its all similar and depends on the prompt

o1 is the best for now but of anybody has an M1 or better mac with 16 or more GB of RAM ollama works great with OpenWeb UI for free after you download the models

it can even work with a cheap AMD PC but the process is a bit more involved

[Vedran Rodic ♥ @vrodic]

@elonmusk i just see them caring more for the little people that were wrongfully accused

[John Cena @JohnCena]

The biggest problem with persistence is that it requires tremendous effort.

[Vedran Rodic ♥ @vrodic]

yeah i feel OpenAI did a rug pull, and LLMs in general are screwed on iOS devices because of low RAM

local Siri voice recognition works amazing on WatchOS

ollama works amazing with OpenWebUI, latest M4 machines and open source LLMs

i used to be scared for Intel

now Im a bit scared for AMD

long term Chinese RiscV designs will save us, unless we invent replicant brains sooner

Dillo browser

it can show a basic popular rather objective unbloated news site from my country

it can show LWN

it can show HN

it can show old popular local forum

it can show rss feeds

it automatically blocks (does not work on) all the popular social networks

what else would one need?

[John Cena @JohnCena]

When the path seems unmanageable, just put focus on climbing the hill in front of you.
