sankalpmukim··on Kimi K2.6: Advancing open-source coding
I think this kind of overthinking is an extremely common pattern in the Chinese models. GLM's models are also very much like this.

sankalpmukim··on Sarvam 105B, the first competitive Indian open source LLM
I asked it some controversial ish questions about Indian Politics scene, and it gave good, unbiased answers, giving a good holistic picture. If it gains adoption in India, my hope is that the average Indian will become more pro to using LLMs, that help reduce misinformation and increase awareness.

sankalpmukim··on Daily Driving GrapheneOS
good writeup. I've been meaning to set this up for myself too. I keep uninstalling apps from my phone every other day because if I use something very little, I am afraid the app is collecting data from my usage in some way or the other.

I have a fairly new ish Pixel phone, do you think I'll be able to go back if I don't like it?

It is already nearly impossible/very expensive in my country to be able to get a public IP address (Even IPv6) which you could host on. World is heavily moving towards centrally dependant on these big Cloud providers.
sankalpmukim··on New Date("wtf") – How well do you know JavaScript's Date class?
