As I said, the architectural changes are quite cool

As far as I’ve understood it mostly comes down to splitting it up into multiple expert systems, so you don’t need to activate the complete system with every request

But I’ve only scratched the surface…

Also, open source… The weights are made publicly available.
None of the training data or systems

Edit: regarding “open source”:
Also Meta’s Llama is on huggingface, just like deepseek. I still wouldn’t talk about transparency here

50 Milliliter?
What did he plan to kill? Ants?

Distilling OpenAI and Llama models probably also helped quite a bit

Although I must admit, that the architectural changes are pretty cool

but I have to add, that I’ve just started reading into the topic a few weeks ago and don’t really have any real practical experience, besides checking out some huggingface docs I got linked yesterday and stupid me hasn’t thought about looking there…
So everything I say is probably bullshit o⁠:⁠-⁠)

Python is not a problem
SW Dev is my job. Just never had real contact with AI before, besides playing around a bit.

Thank you very much for the link!!

Edit: thank you very much again, that was pretty much exactly what I was looking for.
Don’t know how I missed to checkout huggingface. Thought of it always just as a github for models and didn’t bother checking for docs…
But that’s a great intro with simple tools/tutorials to get a grip on it, thanks!

I’d like to look into that, how can I train an existing model further?

I’m only playing around with ollama, but like to do a bit more - mostly just to fulfill my needs to understand things - but have no idea where to start

Saddest thing ever that it got killed in the first place

I’m sporting a Framework 16 since a few months and had some battery problems at first. Due to work load, I couldn’t really get into the problem and something I changed or updated resolved it.

But I sent a mail to framework support at that time and the answer was just awesome.
Not just some typical 1st level response to update or restart, but real technical questions and obvious interest in my problem.
They even sounded a bit sad, that I couldn’t really tell them anything, because the issue resolved without me being able to pinpoint it.

On that note, I also have to say, that Tuxedo support was really good.
My Pulse 15 battery was starting to get a belly, and they sent me a new one without much questions - and no pay.
Now, after like 4-5 years, I have my old Pulse to my nephew and saw that the CMOS battery is dead. Again they just sent me a new one.

Some companies really deserve to get recommended.

Yeah, wasn’t talking about Einstein

Please don’t do the goat

As far as reported, not just harass, but actually raped

Those I always interpreted as tattooed joke

Like ‘regrats’ and other misspellings.
But probably there are some real ones

It’s just more convenient it seems to not care about instances

Why did they need police with MGs to protect against activists with some paint balloons?

How did you try it?

Requesting an account told me, that it’s only open for LE & Co, and in the demo only their pictures where available - as far as I’ve seen

I completely get all that, but looking at the typical user base that uses mainstream social media platforms, like TikTok, I don’t see them being knowledgeable about some china centered alternative app

I just don’t see, how so many would switch to that, as most of them wouldn’t have known about it a week ago.
Was it promoted on TikTok?

Personally I still don’t believe that a completely unknown app was suddenly getting new members in the means of some grassroots protest.
Maybe it is more (or gotten) more known through TikTok and that’s why it was basically unknown for me.
Still, I think this is artificially hyped as a reaction to a potential TikTok ban and not some organic growth - even taking into account people switching in protest

I think, I’ve heard about this app like once in the last years. And, not wanting to sound self centered, but as a software dev and quite interested in anything internet, I find this development rather strange.

Was “little red book” promoted on TikTok or how did so many people, who are usually just consumers of feeds, suddenly heard of that new app?
Especially, when I have a really hard time to have them install a new app, like Signal, in other cases.

Ok, this wasn’t really a good answer to your comment, sorry. You’re right, that the TikTok feed just builds individual bubbles, so right wingers will get more right wing info and the other way round.
But the sudden switch to a practically unknown app just… seems fishy

Isn’t it already a right wing propaganda machine?

Yeah, on my laptop - because I travel with it and confidential data (like from my customers) could land in hands its not supposed to

No, in case of my desktop, because it’s easier to access it in case of failure

In Austria we have FunkFeuer
Which is a separate network of individuals that directly links them up through antennas

I guess you mean I2P?
