Redis is fast too, but I don't go around comparing it to a proper database =/

Longbottom is the serious version, before that it was Stretcharse.

It's an interesting test, pretty cool idea. Thanks for sharing

I'm handling dense, sparse, and colbert vectors generated by BGE-M3 model on CPU, pretty sure that counts as "AI"

hey cousin!

I'm doing fast AVX512 embeddings on Ryzen, and fast ONNX AVX512 reranking on Ryzen. Though I do the actual heavy lifting on GPU, doing all the RAG stuff in CPU is helpful. AI on CPU is still mostly a gimmick, but as models get smaller and more capable it's becoming less of a gimmick.

Seems possible, but there are still many sizable voting blocs that will endure a lot of hardship before they decide to take the dole.

Seems like it wasn't so terrible. Munich has still decided that "Where it is technologically and financially possible", the city will emphasize use on open standards and free open-source licensed software. Which seems reasonable.

In 2018, journalistic group Investigate Europe released a video documentary via German public television network ARD that claimed that the majority of city workers were satisfied with the operating system, with council members insinuating that the reversal was a personally motivated decision by lord mayor Dieter Reiter. Reiter denied that he had initiated the reversal in gratitude for Microsoft moving its German headquarters from Unterschleißheim back to Munich.

Salesforce produced one of the best Llama-3(8B) finetunes, IMO: SFR-Iterative-DPO-LLaMA-3-8B-R

Hopefully they do something with Llama-3.1

Bookmarking this story as an uplifting reminder that even though I'm awkward and socially inept at times, at least I haven't bragged to Bloomberg about bullying children.

you can compile your own hello world and look at the executable with x64dbg. press space on any instruction and you can assemble your own instruction in it's place (optionally filling the leftover bytes with NOPs)

wild speculation aside, i'd say a little less performance is preferable to this outcome.

You can buy the available USPS data. pricing is here:

it all makes sense if you read the paper linked at the top of the article.

it's higher for the exe that's dropped, but definitely still possible for it to be a false positive.

it's got strings in the exe from RTPatch, it might be a generic match for that?

Yep, as someone who has printed thousands of these damn labels in the past, this is the answer.

Looks good! I usually stick to 010 Editor for it's wildcard search, but ImHex does that and more, I'm sold. Will be testing it out a bit more

I came across a Czech film (A Jester's Tale - 1964) when I found this video years ago, and it's been stuck in my brain since:

Yeah! What? OK!

the main source i can find that seems to be the origin for "10 BYD dealerships burned since 2021" (carscoop) references this article:

https://www.ntdtv.com/b5/2024/05/16/a103881785.html (which actually lists 11 minus the most recent)

translation seems to be mostly accurate, but i can't be arsed into researching the locations listed.

but yes, tens of dealerships per month seems like a bit of an exaggeration

brilliant, thanks for sharing. seems to work great. i mostly tolerate Windows Defender, but the lack of configurability is pretty maddening sometimes.

i was able to sign in with my number and password just now, had to click link in the upper left to get around the phone number request

just logged in for the first time in 20 years. actually remembered my ICQ number and password! the contact list didn't seem to survive though

it seems to me like we're missing an opportunity to give these people a victim-free outlet for their urges.

i'm not really educated on what treatment looks like for these people, and harms to society from AI CSAM should obviously be considered too.

but some kind of "prescription" or otherwise regulated generation of these images should at least be considered, i think.

i have nightmares from PHP, too, so i get where you're coming from. but i think you'd have to go back at least a decade to find tutorials that bad

shout out to ComputorEdge magazine, source of local BBS numbers when i was a kid. i rarely dialed a local prefix that wasn't toll-free, but man, the couple times that i did it sucked.
