i386··on We finally learned to center a div, then browsers added sidebars
Its an entire misunderstanding of how the layout system works.
i386··on BMW Is Showing Commercials on Their Car's Dash Screens as a Treat
Most people working at the top of these large organizations don’t know how to make anything net new anymore. They pushed all the people that do out when padding their nests.
i386··on Mesh LLM: distributed AI computing on iroh
exo is Mac only.

I’d love a bug report - we can get it working for you!

Our skippy library is a patch queue on top of llama that allows us to access internal information, such as activations, and filter tensors on model load.

To be honest, both are very tough problems we don't have a good answer for yet. If that is something that concerns you, look into building a private mesh with trusted peers.

Each stage has its own KV for the layers it hosts. You are on the money there, when one stage is waiting it's free for more parallelism. I am planning on exploiting this for more token verification through ngram spec decoding.

It can dynamically route. If a machine drops out of split, the topology is recalculated and the request is automatically retried.

Thank you! AMD is a weak spot in our testing right now. If you’re willing to contribute or let us borrow some compute time, drop in on the Discord.

The lab features two Mac Studios: an Apple M3 Ultra (32 CPU cores, 80 GPU cores, 256 GB unified memory) and an Apple M1 Ultra (20 CPU cores, 48 GPU cores, 128 GB unified memory), both connected via 1Gbit Ethernet.

We use a customized Q2 quantization that preserves sensitive tensors at Q8.

To reduce compute time per layer, we are developing a custom GLM DSA Metal graph.

While we are not yet approaching MTP, we plan to port our existing MTP implementations from versions 4.7 and 5.1 to 5.2.

Since GLM's MTP acceptance rate is very high for a single predicted token, we are exploring token prediction techniques to widen the predicted tokens and utilize parallelism for verification.

That isn’t true. llama RPC is incredibly slow but staged splits in skippy are orders of magnitude faster.

This was done on my home lab simulating 5ms latency and jitter between machines. Splits work quite well if you your nodes are over WAN at metro latency’s but not super fast on global WAN.

The idea is that you could take several machines without dedicated RDMA or NVLINK fabric and use them to serve a large model on hardware you own then share it with others.

I’m currently working on GLM 5.2 on my lab environment with around 10 tok/s on the same split.

I’m one of the contributors to Mesh LLM and happy to answer any questions. I authored the skippy engine that allows you to split large models across nodes.
i386··on VS Code inserting 'Co-Authored-by Copilot' into commits regardless of usage
PMs at Microsoft have incredibly bad taste
i386··on I bought Friendster for $30k – Here's what I'm doing with it
I kinda fucking love it. He’s doing something. It’s interesting. There’s no scam. Let live!
i386··on Google releases Gemma 4 open models
You can try this new model live using mesh-llm right now: https://www.anarchai.org/dashboard
i386··on Signing data structures the wrong way
switch on version, then messageId…
i386··on Signing data structures the wrong way
> I didn't know that Protobuf wasn't canonical but even without this knowledge, there are many other factors which make it an inferior format to JSON.

If strict typing and versioning are useless to you, sure.

i386··on Apple's latest attempt to launch the new Siri runs into snags
yeah this product does not exist
i386··on Dell admits consumers don't care about AI PCs
I work for YouTube. You’re hired.
i386··on How Samba Was Written (2003)
At the WiseTech office in 2006 we had a small shrine in the corner dedicated to Tridge, the patron saint of hackers.
i386··on Google boss says AI investment boom has 'elements of irrationality'
This is very revisionist. While they have been catching up quickly there was no master 4D chess strategy here. Google was incredibly late to this game - Sergey had to come back from retirement because most of the research team had a Sarah Connor complex and couldn’t ship. The saving grace is that AdWords picked up the tab again and founders shook the place up when it became clear the golden goose was being cooked.
i386··on Hackers can steal 2FA codes and private messages from Android phones
Android supremacy at its finest. I would never recommend a family member buying one. The history of this kind of thing is long and keeps continuing to happen.
i386··on Vijaye Raji to become CTO of Applications with acquisition of Statsig
> What makes a group of coworkers into "an org"?

Reporting lines that ladder up to a line in the P&L.

i386··on Tell HN: Meta developer account suspended
Honestly good luck. I left a company and removed myself from the meta account which triggered the deletion of our whole app. Impossible to recover. Meta suck.

LOL
i386··on Windows Control Panel set for deprecation
Very rude. Just because you work for The Register doesn’t mean you can bring your toxicity here.
i386··on Australian government approves AAPowerLink project to export solar to Singapore
Not sure why this is downvoted. Economic activity should be enjoyed by the commons. For example LNG being exported UNDER international value and Aussies buying it at international prices is idiotic.

Three words: left hand drive.

Wrong.
