A cube would mean everyone got an equal payout, which is communism, which doesn't every work.

A sphere would mean people at the top and the bottom got nothing, while people who bought in at the middle made off with all the wealth. Who the hell would want to start a scam like that?

I'm glad you're talking about the context window and the model. So many people use these things as black boxes and have no idea how they work.

They can't "hallucinate" or "lie" .. they literally have no intent. What you have discovered is the truth: They are random next word (really token) generators. Anything they get right is literally by accident. People seem fine with things being right accidentally 80% of the time ... just waiting for that structural engineer who uses AI and it gets load bearing wrong and 8 people die in a bridge collapse.

3Blue1Brown has some excellent videos of how LLMs work, including the vector space addition, the transformers, preceptron blocks and attention blocks. There's a good 7 min layman's video too. I'd recommend going through them. They're eye opening.

Does mean you can't fight where you can. I deleted all my big social media a while ago. I also just wrote this on not letting people scan your drivers licenses for stupid shit like getting into bars:

In my 20s I'd drive off campus for lunch, buy some jack, add it to a soda bottle, drink some and take one of those Listerine breath strips.

I told a buddy and he was like, "You really hate your job don't you?"

Take your meds

You're fired

Do you starve yourself to death in your dreams too?

I've just been using Ollama on my 3080-Ti. Running the smaller models are slightly more wrong that the big cloud ones, but they're all just bullshit machines anyway so who cares.

You can use the Continue plugin to connect to Ollama from IntelliJ, VSCode and others.

That wasn't even a good shitpost. Shit harder.

IntelliJ lets you change the order of parameters when you extract a function.

I only did this once, some contract work for one old employer. I really didn't like it. I can only really handle one full time job at a time. It's up to you, but I'd just ignore it unless you really like the extra hours and need the money.

... or if you think you can manage a consulting business and contract out other devs who need extra work. It's good money if you can do it, but that takes a lot of dedication.

They're both corrupt. There is a fake left and a fake right. Biden's team literally silenced the allegations of Tara Reid and had the FBI raid a reporters house to take back the drug rehab diary where Ashley Biden said Joe showered naked with her.

Trump's assassination was fake/staged and he was with Epstine on the private jet just like Clinton.

Stop your political splurging bullshit. No one cares. This isn't the forum for it. I want tech rants, not your /pol bullshit.

I don't like Orange Man or Pedo Joe. But at least Orange Man knows what a woman is, even if he's going to send a bunch of Americans to die for the United States of Israel.

If you don't understand why people voted for Orange Man, you're part of the problem.

I don't vote. I do things that actually matter.

It's made from concentrate. Even if it says its not, it probably is. The water is evaporated out and it's reconstituted later.

I haven't bought Orange Juice in years though. Too much sugar and I'm fat.

Cucumber?

DSLs were a mistake.

My rants are always about work or programming .. unless I'm self promoting my blog ...... *cough* battlepenguin.com *cough*

Some people grow over time. I know I did. Changing jobs ever 1~2 years helped a lot too; saw a lot of different types of tech shops. I learned a lot about what worked and what didn't. A lot of times you do really have to learn the hard way.

It was in my 30s I kept forgetting my age. Around my birthday I'd subtract my birth year. Sometimes I was a year younger than what I thought. Those were good years. Sometimes I was a year older.

Birthdays were a groundhog day to the winter of my soul.

She was vaccinated too, and very vocal on social media about mandating it on everyone. People typically don't get liver failures in their 30s.

From slow suicide to straight up murder. If you're going to hurt yourself, stick to yourself. Hurting others is school shooter bullshit.

Just use an Invidious instance?

@tosensei What local models are best for coding? Are you using Ollama for running them? What if you only have an integrated video card?

Coding all of shame

Back it up. Send it in for its warranty.

Try using fewer acronyms.

Those are the absolute worst. You feel it for days.

Learn how to use a debugger you peasants!

Your body doesn't need sleep. Your muscles can probably keep doing their thing 24/7.

It's your mind that needs sleep.

Despite all the science links people are posting and the AI-bot's explanation, if you start looking through the literature, no one really knows why we need sleep. Everyone is really just guessing.

I was in high school. I went to three parties. Start with a good friend and my girlfriend, then drove down the street to a bunch of my church friends, and then a few of us from that group drove over to my best friend's place (the pastor's kid) and that's where we ended up crashing.

I read the last devotion from My Utmost of His Highest from Oswald Chambers before we went to bed.

@Lensflare I've heard anorexia is really a subconscious suicide, way back in the 90s.
