would love to see how AI can automate the construction of the next high energy particle collider

I'm just wondering if this is replacing, you know, teachers...
moelf··on Einstein's relativity rules chemical bonds in heavy elements, new research shows
well, 90%+ of the mass of a proton comes from moving stuff, rather than rest mass of the quarks.

so the real world impact is, having anything at all

moelf··on AMD Ryzen AI Halo – $4k AI Dev Kit
frontier to laptop runnable open weight so far seems to be ~2 years latency, so maybe there's some hope
moelf··on The annotated PyTorch training loop
even the submitted page doesn't, huge margin if you zoom out on mobile (Firefox)
moelf··on I am a person who will look at the Steam Machine and cry
the original post says:

    So what now? The short answer is that I have (a) a nice couch; (b) a big TV; (c) a Steam Deck that I never use. I even have a dock for the Deck.

how does Opus see the output? via HTML (which Typst can output) or visual tokens?
moelf··on Show HN: Trackm, a personal finance web app
any comparison with https://actualbudget.org/ ?
moelf··on Show HN: Sweep, Open-weights 1.5B model for next-edit autocomplete
what do people use for Neovim to integrate these models for tab-completion level of stuff. (i.e. non agentic/vibe coding)
moelf··on Which programming languages are most token-efficient?
the most efficient languages are pretty unpopular, so this argument makes them even more efficient in reality?...
moelf··on A faster heart for F-Droid
>We worked out a special arrangement so that this server is physically held by a long time contributor with a proven track record of securely hosting services.

Not clear if "contributor" is a person or an entity. The "hosting services" part make it sound more like a company rather than a natural person.

and HexOS I guess.
moelf··on The universal weight subspace hypothesis
you can always make a new vector that's orthogonal to all the ones currently used and see if the inclusion improves performance on your tasks
moelf··on The universal weight subspace hypothesis
>instead of spending massive compute rediscovering it from scratch every time

it's interesting that this paper was discovered by JHU, not some groups from OAI/Google/Apple, considering that the latter probably have spent 1000x more resource on "rediscovering"

moelf··on Steam Machine
"Luckily," the hardware won't allow for 4k@120Hz on visually cutting edge games anyway.
moelf··on Steam Machine
yeah it's just a Linux x86 desktop (Arch Linux) -- although, you'd likely want to make sure Jellyfin's hardware acceleration works well with AMD APU (last time I checked the AMD was under experimental)
moelf··on Steam Machine
I guess right now the GPU is too weak. And ofc even if the hardware steps up, there are always root-kit games gatekeeping :(
moelf··on Steam Machine
>Semi-custom AMD Zen 4 6C / 12T

the desktop is also x86, the VR headset (Frame) is ARM

moelf··on Ground stop at JFK due to staffing
IIUC they legally can't do that. ATC are federal employees, you can't just have private companies pay off federal workers. (Well, I know Trump's friend is literally doing that for the military so idk, maybe laws are just words these days)
moelf··on Nostr and ATProto (2024)
true, however
