sharktheone··on Mold Linker Version 3.0.0 Release – Rewritten in Rust
Oh what? That was not on my bingo card for 2026. Mold already was incredible when it still was in C++ and I assume it is even better now that it is in rust
sharktheone··on Beam: Reflection's 501B open-weight model
Am I the only one who thought of the BEAM VM after the first word of thee title?
sharktheone··on How to speed up the Rust compiler in September 2026
I think there are a few more. Especially cranelift, but I would not use it for production stuff and it is missing a lot of llvm intrinsics that will just trap if you are trying to use them. But for most it seems to be just fine for regular dev builds with a HUGE speedup.
sharktheone··on SvelteKit 3
Still waiting for remote functions to become ready :/
sharktheone··on The state of SIMD in Rust in 2026
I am hoping for portable SIMD so much. But I still think that often a manually rolled SIMD will be faster.

Also the state of SIMD in Cranelift is also very WIP. They pretty much just support a subset of 128bit vectors with some rare exceptions.

sharktheone··on react-html-3.2
The linked website uses one <style></style> for the blink animation, and also inline style (style="...") which also was only introduced in HTML4.

"no css" look inside css
sharktheone··on >1B tokens/minute/GPU by combining query planner and inference engine
First of all, this is VERY impressive. I wonder how this might effect the output quality. I wrote my own AI execution engines in the past and from that I can tell that it is really hard to get right and event small mistakes can make the model way dumber than expected.

While qwen3-4b is smarter than I remembered it, newer models seem to be way better, K2 Horizon 3.7B for example. Is there a reason why that qwen model was choosen?

My last question would be if the same optimizations could be made to a Jev-like model. I mean Jev is already fast and probably has a high throughput per H100. So could we maybe get to >2B tokens/minute/GPU with such a model?

sharktheone··on Platform-Independent SIMD in Go
I hope portable simd will be stabilized some time in rust :/
sharktheone··on F-Droid 2.0
so nice. FDroid always looked a bit dated to me
sharktheone··on When the Debugger Lies
Debuggers can lie pretty often. Especially if you are just doing things with ASM. I had some issues with V8 debugging and the debugger just saying that a function got called which for sure wasn't. Even with the option that V8 should emit gdb info :/
sharktheone··on Linux support is coming to Snapdragon X2 series
interesting. I mean day-to-day usage is a requirement if you want to buy some of these machines for real. But good to know that graphics works now. Last time I checked it wasn't and that was significantly after launch
sharktheone··on Linux support is coming to Snapdragon X2 Series
Yeah, this just sucks imo. I mean I think for the copilot button there was something upstreamed, but the useful stuff wasn't
sharktheone··on Rendering pull requests in the GitHub Copilot app
Could they please focus on their website rendering it better? Like I'm sorry, but no one actually cares about the Github Copilot App
sharktheone··on Sol 6 and Opus 5.5 compared on an agentic CAD harness
poor Kimi K3 :/
sharktheone··on Claude discovers a novel enzyme system with CRISPR-like repeats
Still waiting for the announcement "Claude kills 50% of human population after it cured cancer"
sharktheone··on Making Tailscale Faster
I always thought that just kernel mode makes it better.

Didn't know that WG can't use hardware crypto accelerators. I hope it will someday

sharktheone··on Gemini 3.8 text-to-speech
Interesting to see that they are publishing a new tts model. I remember that they refused to release one of them a few years ago because they were too afraid of abusing it. Now they just release it without any much thought lol
sharktheone··on Gemini 3.8 text-to-speech
Why does "gemini 3.8" make me not be too interested in their tts model?
sharktheone··on Linux support is coming to Snapdragon X2 Series
I mean it technically can run linux. But I think non one actually got any desktop or graphics working. I hope it just happens but you are sadly correct here.
sharktheone··on Mercury 2.5 LLM hits 770 tokens per second
yeah. K2.6 can run on insane speeds. So sad that they don't have K3 yet.

But it can apparently also run 5.6 Sol

sharktheone··on Mercury 2.5 LLM hits 770 tokens per second
this feels like "we got the same benches as gpt-oss-120b but are also potentially slower while saying it is great"
sharktheone··on Meta VR Glasses
still worried about how much data this thing will collect about you
sharktheone··on Meta VR Glasses
I think I am still going to stick with the Steam Frame lmao
sharktheone··on Linux support is coming to Snapdragon X2 series
yeah everyone was hyped and it was said to be getting linux support. Some things were upstreamed into the kernel, but it never really got there
sharktheone··on Linux support is coming to Snapdragon X2 series
Sure, not too far, but single core perf is still. And also still very much behind the new M6 in single core and multi core https://browser.geekbench.com/v7/cpu/389219
sharktheone··on Linux support is coming to Snapdragon X2 series
I think this is huge. I thought about getting one of these chips a long time ago, but linux support was just a breaker. I ended up sticking to my current laptop and getting a macbook some years after

The "original" X Elite was also supposed to get good linux support but it unfortunately never happened.

So hopefully the X2 will actually happen!

sharktheone··on GPT-6 Sol and Luna
hmm, it somehow continued the trend of being basically the same score on https://artificialanalysis.ai/ as the 5.6 variants.

I kind of hated Astra for it's poor instruction following and stopping all the time plus bad code quality. It somehow feels a bit like some of the popular open models but with a lot more knowledge or peek capability. But it doesn't reach peek that often

sharktheone··on Claude Opus 5.5 Intelligence, Performance and Price Analysis (Max)
That is a lot. I thought Anthropic models would just do the opposite because they are greedy for money.
sharktheone··on Claude Opus 5.5 Intelligence, Performance and Price Analysis (Max)
Interesting to see it now. I've used it a bunch before it came out and i pretty much didn't notice it. It might have been slightly better code quality, but still not great in that. I guess it just was slightly less frustrating to work with, but still AI...
