aldielshala··on Show HN: Llm.sql – Run a 640MB LLM on SQLite, with 210MB peak RSS and 7.4 tok/s
Haven't tested on a Pi yet, llm.sql is still in alpha, focused on validating that SQLite can actually work for LLM inference and profiling memory usage. That said, 210MB peak RSS should fit comfortably on a Pi. In theory, any device that runs SQLite (which is almost every device) could run llm.sql. Planning to benchmark across different hardware as the project matures.
aldielshala··on Show HN: Honker – Postgres NOTIFY/LISTEN Semantics for SQLite
Nice project. I'm also working on something that pushes SQLite well beyond its typical use case. It's encouraging to see more people exploring what SQLite can really do.
aldielshala··on Show HN: Tolaria – Open-source macOS app to manage Markdown knowledge bases
Curious how it handles 10K+ notes performance-wise, does it index everything or lazy-load?

Trying to use human attention, instead of Transformer attention.
aldielshala··on Technical, cognitive, and intent debt

aldielshala··on Ping-pong robot beats top-level human players
Finally an AI that takes someone's job and nobody's upset about it.
aldielshala··on Hey, it's Earth Day today
My contribution today: fewer LLM calls, fewer GPU hours, less CO2.
aldielshala··on Meta employees are up in arms over a mandatory program to train AI on their
Everyone's focused on Meta employees, but the real concern is normalization. If Meta does this and gets away with it, some companies may quietly roll out the same thing.
aldielshala··on Ask HN: What skills are future proof in an AI driven job market?
Yes, maybe context engineering (prompting is just one part of it) and soft skills.
aldielshala··on Meta to start capturing employee mouse movements, keystrokes for AI training
Honestly, I doubt this data is as useful as they think.

Half my workday is me browsing random tabs while an AI agent does the actual work. They're going to train a model on alt-tabbing and scrolling HN/Twitter/Reddit.

aldielshala··on SpaceX says it has agreement to acquire Cursor for $60B
$60B for a VSCode fork with AI integration... It may show the value of the gap between vanilla LLM output and production-ready applications.
aldielshala··on Ask HN: What skills are future proof in an AI driven job market?
Communication, with both human and AI.
