With regard to installing packages, I think the general rule is that `python -m pip` is best practice, because it assures that the python you install packages to is the same one you're planning to run them on
- VR headsets typically need very low frame times so that they can account for you moving your head and not give you motion sickness. The typical threshold is ~10ms, but it can be improved with good reprojection tech
- Older LCD TVs often added >50ms of input lag, although this is much less of a problem now, but this was enough for lots of people in the 360/PS3 era of consoles

This feels like it is slightly conflating the strengths of LLMs and AI as a whole.
There are certainly machine learning models that would assist in predicting when a user will be next online, and using an AI assistant to assist in writing such an implementation would likely be helpful.
However, passing JSON into an LLM, asking it to emulate a program to perform this functionality, and then parsing the response to extract other JSON doesn't feel like a stable approach (for example: I was unable to recreate their successful execution under ChatGPT v3), especially given this technique, if widely adopted, may end up including user-controlled fields that would make the system vulnerable to prompt injection.
to my knowledge, this is is only an optional moderation feature on some servers, not a global policy - you can still use discord without an email address if the server rules are loose enough
Probably the fastest way to get started is to look into [0] - this only requires a beta chromium browser with WebGPU. For a more integrated setup, I am under the impression [1] is the main tool used.
If you want to take a look at the quality possible before getting started, [2] is an online service by Hugging Face that hosts one of the best of the current generation of open models (OpenAssistant w/ 30B LLaMa)

Having said that: if you are feeling incredibly patient you can technically run the 68B parameter model by swapping to disk, although it will not be a pleasant experience (think minutes or hours per token instead of tokens per second)
Additionally worth noting pure CPU inference is much slower than GPU/TPU inference, so the output will be much slower than a ChatGPT-like service even if it does fit in your computer's RAM
The AI tools they have been releasing are interesting, but Kagi desperately needs to decrease their average cost-per-search so that they can offer more realistic numbers of queries per month at a $10 price point.
I'm not sure what the solution is - maybe generating smaller indices for particular verticals? For some classes of question (for example looking up documentation) I would expect there are a surprisingly small number of sites that consistently end up as top 3 results, and everything else can be put behind a 'load more' button that queries the paid APIs.
(The problem then becomes identifying when this is the case)
While it wouldn't 'fix' the cost of long tail searches, identifying 'easy' searches and answering them directly might help - looking at my own search history, I'd say maybe 1 in 3 of my queries would fall under this category.
Edit: from a similar comment, see https://photostructure.com/faq/remote-access/#accessing-your...
I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure that's every incident they've ever documented, grouped by day, as opposed to the data from last week
Their status page seems to suggest ~99.97% uptime (about 3h/year down) recently
From their FAQ:
> We believe the name of the game in search is quality, not quantity. Search engine's job is to provide the best answer fast and within the reach of one or two pages of results. If the user needs to go to page 17 to find what they were looking for, we would have failed anyway.
