programming

[vague sonnet]

REAL programmers write their own ML libraries with custom CUDA kernels

[valid onyx]

i coded kai in python but i couldnt get her discord connection with python

[olive sable]

[nocturne olive]

Pretty sure Python Discord libraries are just kinda bad

[valid onyx]

yeah. i figured that out after 7 hours of troubleshooting

[nocturne olive]

Kotlin's Discord library "Kord" is really good

[olive sable]

no, real people dont touch cuda, nvidia made it illegal. you have to use your ai agent

if i get a framework 13 pro, im buying one without ram and then ill get the ram locally on the used market. cuz fucking hell how is 2x8gb 5600 a whole 312 euro?
thats a scam

[opaque sigil]

gl sourcing an lpcamm2 module

[olive sable]

the storage is also a scam

[valid onyx]

oh btw if anyone wants to look up my laptop. i have a notebook g10 firefly workstation amd edition

[olive sable]

im forced to use lpcamm2?

[opaque sigil]

yes lol

[olive sable]

ok ye that non-existant used

[vague sonnet]

this is the skill gap between real programmers and corpo slaves

[kind nimbus]

Jeez I'm so happy i bought a new Laptop before the memory and storage crisis hit

[valid onyx]

ye

[olive sable]

DDR5 SO-DIMMs up to 64GB each at up to to DDR5-5600 speeds are compatible with the Framework Laptop 13 Pro

sodimm should work according to framework

[vague sonnet]

RAM is free if you run fast enough

[opaque sigil]

how does that work

do they just have slots for both

[olive sable]

it must be both

[opaque sigil]

oh

there are two configs, one intel and one amd
the intel one specifically lists lpcamm2 and the amd one does not

that might be why

[olive sable]

oohhhh

[opaque sigil]

aka

amd: sodimm
intel: lpcamm2

would be my guess

[kind nimbus]

Let Evil steal the ram for you

[olive sable]

ye i was configuring for the amd one cuz its a better deal

[valid onyx]

https://www.tiktok.com/@kaithestreamerai this is kais tiktok

[opaque sigil]

the amd one starts 200€ higher

[olive sable]

yes, but faster

and im configuring the 370

only 60 euro more specy than the intel ultra x7, but 24 threads

[opaque sigil]

worth it if you don't need/want the extra battery life ig

[olive sable]

you mean for the ram power usage?

cuz im pretty sure the amd chips use less power iirc

[kind nimbus]

Meanwhile my laptop has around 20-40 minutes battery life and part of the reason I went with Intel was better battery life

[opaque sigil]

that's the one thing the intel ones are really really good at so i doubt

but i'm also too lazy to look further into this rn

[olive sable]

same

according to chatgpt the amd 370 has the most multi-core per joule

[opaque sigil]

okay but 90% of applications are single core

[olive sable]

the amd 325 uses the least power overall. and the intel x7 358h has the best single core per joule

[opaque sigil]

[olive sable]

and the x9 388h is fast but the efficiency is balls

[vague sonnet]

pro tip: if you take out the battery it will be lighter and therefore more mobile

[olive sable]

pro-tip, if you remote into your desktop you can just use a tablet with a keyboard and a mouse

[kind nimbus]

Lmao yea but then i have no UPS anymore

[olive sable]

the battery life will be insane if you have a decent tablet

[kind nimbus]

Jokes on you my laptop has more performance than my desktop

[amber fractal]

[olive sable]

not something to brag about lmao

[vague sonnet]

chargers are usually strong enough for full performance
I'm using mine no battery since it stopped working

[kind nimbus]

Yeah my desktop rig is already a few years old

Ryzen 7 5800x + RX 6900 XT

[olive sable]

"chargers are usually strong enough for full performance" isnt that the whole point?
that they provide more power than the battery?

[kind nimbus]

My laptop charger has 330w

Only with it the cpu and dgpu can reach full performance

[olive sable]

im pretty sure a lot of laptops are the fastest when plugged in

[olive sable]

that's not even that bad tho. what laptop do you have???

[vague sonnet]

well obviously
but it's more whether charger without battery is enough for full potential

[kind nimbus]

I have a Tuxedo Stellaris 16 Gen7

Intel core Ultra 9 275HX
96 gb ddr5 6400 cso-dimm
Rtx 5070 Ti
2tb Samsung 9100 pro gen5

[olive sable]

the idea of a charger is that it charges the battery. id be a pretty shit laptop if it uses the battery and the charger at the same time to get full performance

[olive sable]

laptop cpus are genuinly insane now. im suprised to see the 275HX be so much faster than my 5950x

[kind nimbus]

The chip is extremely good

But also runs hot

[olive sable]

im surprised those got ahead so quickly while mobile gpus are still ass

[kind nimbus]

And my laptop has massive heatsinks lol

[amber fractal]

[kind nimbus]

It's around double as fast as my desktop 5800x lul

[olive sable]

i may be a bit harsh on laptop gpus, they're doing pretty well for the amount of power they use actually

[kind nimbus]

I mean i can play pretty much around anything i want on that 5070 ti and LLMs run as well

[olive sable]

im more looking at the price to performance

5090 laptops are 5K

lets say 2.5K of that is the actual GPU, that still bad

[kind nimbus]

Yeah thats why I went with a 5070 ti instead

5080 would have been 600€ on top and 5090 like 1400€ extra

That laptop was way to expensive already anyway

[olive sable]

in terms of power usage the 5090 mobile is impressive, but the raw performance doesn't completely destroy old desktop parts like the laptop cpu are doing rn

[opaque wharf]

Wait 10 years for framework

Or get framework now as they have oculijnk

[warped narwhal]

how does it compare to the 6800xt?

[kind nimbus]

The difference between rtx 5070 ti, 5080, 5090 mobile gpus isn't even that big at least in benchmarks

[nocturne olive]

5090 mobile is a 3090

[warped narwhal]

isn't the power budget more important unless you need more vram?

[olive sable]

better than the 3090, worse than the 3090 ti

[nocturne olive]

3090T

[warped narwhal]

damn, my £350 gpu is only slightly slower than a several thousand pound mobile gpu

[nocturne olive]

Laptop GPU scam

[kind nimbus]

Kinda but even then the most difference is the vram count

[warped narwhal]

I could probably buy 6 6800xts for the price of one mobile 5090

that'd give me 96gb of vram

[olive sable]

5090 mobile is only 7.7% faster than the 5080 mobile, according to technical city
5090 mobile is 25.8% faster than the 5070 ti mobile, according to technical city
5090 mobile is 47.9% faster than the 5070 mobile, according to technical city

the drop to the 5070 mobile is huge

they halfed the perfomance, but also halfed the power usage

makes sense i guess, same gpu architecture, just less cores

on that front, the 5070 ti mobile seems to have the best power usage to performance ratio fromw aht i can tell

[vague sonnet]

what's the best cheapest 16gb+ vram gpu? 5060ti?

[olive sable]

uhhh

new one, probably 9060xt

[vague sonnet]

don't I kinda want CUDA for ML stuff?

or is CUDA a myth

[olive sable]

depends on the software you use, but cuda is needed for some stuff ye

[vague sonnet]

well custom software

[olive sable]

if you do the software completely yourself then cuda vs rocm shoudlnt be an issue

[vague sonnet]

what's the best benchmark to check?

[nocturne olive]

But no CUDA

[vague sonnet]

like getting a new pc is so annoying for me
because I just do software, I'm no hardware nerd 😭

[nocturne olive]

Either 4060Ti 16GB or something from Intel probably

[kind nimbus]

Nice

[olive sable]

make your software support other architectures

[nocturne olive]

Microslop makes it impossible to support more than one architecture at a time

[vague sonnet]

write your own OS

[nocturne olive]

OnnxRuntime

[olive sable]

iirc arc a770 has 16gb, but i dont think the A series is that good.
the B series is where intel truly grounded themselves as having gpus that don't suck

Arc Pro B50

[opaque sigil]

the a770 is special in some way but i forgot what that was

oh right, it has 2:1 fp16

[dull badger]

Discord bots are interesting

[hard delta]

oh a new leaf user!

hello

[solid flint]

@stray dragon yo t
hi, we haven't talked for a while

i have a question for u

[stray dragon]

who

[solid flint]

Rezak

[stray dragon]

i do not remember

i'm sorry

[solid flint]

how

[solid flint]

ig it was a while ago..
but alr

[solid flint]

r u in US right?

[stray dragon]

yes

[solid flint]

i recently bought wrong Steam key game, so i think u can have it

its for US/EU only

[stray dragon]

i won't ever use it lol

[solid flint]

why not?

its a dome keeper deluxe edition game

[stray dragon]

i very rarely play anything now

[solid flint]

that's sad

[stray dragon]

eh it just got less fun

[hard delta]

t became a boo adult

[solid flint]

well... sadly me 2

time hurts man

[hard delta]

same, trying to play my favorite games but get nabbed by the ones that can simulate efficient grinding for my brain, eventually i'll just work instead of playing grindy games cause it pays

[vague sonnet]

employge

it do be nice not being broke tho

4 years of ending every month with an empty bank account
into earning enough to open a savings account

[solid flint]

uhhhhhhhhh.....................
do i really have to listen to allat............

omfg am gonna fucking die

[vague sonnet]

don't watch it if you're not interested idk

[solid flint]

i mean, i have to get started

so i have to start with someting

[vague sonnet]

do you really care if you complain

[solid flint]

but that's just a lot of time requires

[vague sonnet]

that's just 5 or so hours, not even a full 8

get real

[solid flint]

k, i guess valid point

but i dont thing i should watch that rn honestly

maybe tmrw

alr anyways thx

am gonna do smth, and then maybe have a lil' rest

gn/gm

[hard delta]

i was on the other side a bit. was saving up nice and smart and meanwhile just clock in, clock out, waste late afternoon, sleep. 3 weeks into unemployment the fog lifts and priorities start to clear

obviously gotta go back but damn

[vague sonnet]

I actually quit a job that I hated
and tried to find something for 3 months

finally landed in programming tho so I'm chilling

[vague sonnet]

looking back best decision ever
but that was risky lol

[sick owl]

I can tell just from the demos they posted its not

It still has squiggly AI image artifacts

From the demo comic Sam Altman posted

[cosmic sphinx]

that looks so shit compared to everything else under their main post

[sick owl]

Nano Banana 2 for comparison

[hard delta]

the composition looks much better tho

well on that one example anyway

[hard delta]

i think people are just fatigued by this look, you could sell anything is "better" as long as it looks different from this

[sick owl]

This panel is ass though

"SFX" and him reaching inside the machine

But overall yeah its a lot more coherent

[sick owl]

Also in the last panel the claw moves outside the machine and in the second to last he puts his hand inside

[hard delta]

yeah it's like "throw these components in the picture" but it has 0 space sense

[cosmic sphinx]

i dont wanna be biased towards gemini, cause that whole generation looks ass common sense wise

[hard delta]

the squiggly one seems to have more sense of space

[sick owl]

From a spatial perspective its worse, but it exhibits a lot less artifacting

[rigid snow]

i feel like not looking sloppy is way better than no artifacting

gpt image does look less like complete slop

[cosmic sphinx]

what in the paid rating

[faint sandal]

are any of these benchmarks actually meaningful

[tropic spindle]

No

[olive sable]

it means the slop is beterer

@real sierra your screeps are doing so ass, im so far ahead from you 😭
anyways, on my way to implement off-road parking

[real sierra]

wtf

my screeps are gamers

[olive sable]

you, invade me?

who decided that?

you will kill me at controller level 3?

who decided that?

on my way to eradicate shiro

[kind nimbus]

https://tenor.com/view/batman-thinking-gif-18107621495886085895

[sick owl]

I mean its all ass honestly compared to actual human art

I maintain that image models are best used for editing and transforming existing content than generating from scratch

[kind nimbus]

Yea lol

[stark needle]

hi

[rigid snow]

[olive sable]

[sick owl]

↓

[olive sable]

1. Check if array is sorted
2. If not, give up and cry

[sick owl]

Gemini 4 26BA4B is so goated bros

(2/2 is because I forgot to put "to English" in the first prompt and while that doesn't matter I have OCD)

If you were wondering

[sick owl]

Forgot to screenshot the translation bit

Anyway yeah, goated model for general local utility

[patent shard]

[fast pagoda]

that's alarming

[rigid snow]

[sick owl]

That is indeed alarming

Side note, if those notifs are a thing doesn't that defeat the point of the airtag for its intended use as an anti-theft utility

[patent shard]

Erm
Yes.. yes it is

[fast pagoda]

heh he huse amd i have an amd and all it cost me was $1300 and also all of my sanity

[fast pagoda]

it's only unknown ones and it has to be with you for a suspicious duration

someone else's airtag shouldnt be on your exact location for 45 minutes of walking around

[warped narwhal]

I think he means that someone who steals your stuff who has an iPhone will get that notification and will then look for the airtag to remove it

[fast pagoda]

oh

i mean i guess

[patent shard]

The line is going from work to my house on the map

[fast pagoda]

does your average petty hooligan stealing a wallet 1. have an iphone and 2. have brain capacity to know what this means and 3. care

[opaque sigil]

i'm sure they thought about this way too much and decided that anti-stalking is more important than anti-theft

[olive sable]

isnt that an android notif?

[opaque sigil]

tbf once it's stolen it's not like you'll be able to get it back anyway

[olive sable]

depends

[opaque sigil]

depends indeed but in a lot of cases you won't

[olive sable]

most of the time it gets on a boat to a different country iirc, but if you're quick enough after noticing you can try to get it back

if its only been half an hour its likely at a safehouse somewhere or something

[patent shard]

Hmm, maybe I should call my neighbor

Someone was probably like "nice car, I'll tag it and steal it at night"

[real sierra]

oh you just have 999999999 upgraders

well yeah i only have 2 so of course you're ahead

[olive sable]

well you see, they're dual purpose

my builders

they're upgraders

my gatherers

they're upgraders

[real sierra]

my gatherers dont have legs

er wait yours are equivalent to my logistics

keep forgetting that

[olive sable]

i call those miners

the gatherers are transport

[real sierra]

yeah i mean i just produce fewer of the roles that i dont need

but my upgrader count is fixed i think

for the most part i depend on scaling through larger bodies

[olive sable]

when they have free time from their normal jobs, they dont actually have free time and they get to upgrade

[real sierra]

instead of more creeps

[olive sable]

i do both

[fast pagoda]

no free time

K

https://tenor.com/view/warcraft-gaming-gif-27702118

[real sierra]

const upgradersNeeded = (rcl == 1 ? 1 : 2);

yeah this could probably use some tweaks

[naive dock]

So, is there someone working on the Pragmata mod? And if so do they need any extra hands?

[fast pagoda]

applying to work for free it 's over

[olive sable]

idk if there is a pragmata mod in development, but the applying to work for free has closed

[fast pagoda]

praganante

[opaque sigil]

what would a pragmata mod even look like

[olive sable]

havent played the game so i have no clue. i guess neuro is the android girl?

[opaque sigil]

i wonder how many are just going to upgrade

[fast pagoda]

it used to be max only didnt it

way back in the day

api or max

[opaque sigil]

idk

[naive dock]

Honestly I was thinking more about a general consumption model swap(maybe voice too?), I’m really not sure how a Neuro integration would work either

[opaque sigil]

@real sierra kill

[fiery canopy]

Another measterbeaster 💀 😭

[opaque sigil]

[fast pagoda]

@real sierra

[fiery canopy]

@real sierra

[opaque sigil]

[fast pagoda]

this is fucking stupid

"yeah i think we should be making it as annoying as possible to notify discord of the compromised account so we wont leave trhat option"

[naive dock]

There is a report spam button, no?

[fast pagoda]

AFTER this step only

[patent shard]

Well, I texted my neighbor, too
Guess someone knows where my house is now

[olive sable]

if you find who the owner of the airtag is by scanning it

should give a phone number or email

[fast pagoda]

good ol lon johnson

[patent shard]

I'll try that
I cleared the notification away (not on purpose) but should just be able to use NFC?

[olive sable]

ye

idk if it always shows contact info, but it should in "lost" mode

[fast pagoda]

RIP moron

[olive sable]

if it doesnt you can send the serial number to the police

[fast pagoda]

im gonna say this and then immediately somehow have this happen to me but wow it must take a special kind of dumb to fall for an ai generated mr beast crypto casino dropped at you with 0 context

like at that point just give up

it's over

[olive sable]

mrbeast nah, but if i was neurosama

for any scammers lurking, im joking lmao

[fast pagoda]

true i mean an evil neuro& vedal's neurosamantha casino would get me

[fiery canopy]

Tbf the mrbeast thing is just usually some guy installing malware atp

[fast pagoda]

that's also a fail

[fiery canopy]

Ye

[fast pagoda]

either way

[fiery canopy]

Still be smart

[fast pagoda]

grim

[fiery canopy]

Agreed

[olive sable]

i have no clue how it actually works, but im decently sure it must make some kind of profit or they wouldnt do it

[fiery canopy]

Its not even that they make it from

Thats a subsediary attack, it just a info stealer

[fast pagoda]

wide net, low hanging fruit, and the credentials that it spreads are the target

steals*

[fiery canopy]

To the attacker its worth exposing them selves for that. As the people who usually get infected leave it on there systems if they dojnt catch onto it atp.

WHich if they are one of the more sophisticated ones means your shits in a botnet no doubt

May be worng but is just a assumption onmy part

[velvet crest]

You have unlocked new role

[fiery canopy]

Iv gained something
idk wat

[fast pagoda]

image embed

[fiery canopy]

Ahh
thought so

Couldn't remeber if I had it before lol

[fast pagoda]

the ones that are scary are like the npm supply chain shit

[fiery canopy]

Ye

[fast pagoda]

whoops you updated your packages, it's over

but also just dont use npm 4head it sux

the binar y

not the repo

[fiery canopy]

Ye

The issue will always come if that 1 person who has the right access fucks up, and it causes alot of impact

[fast pagoda]

that's why i always keep that thang on me

[fiery canopy]

Its also why access control is so majorly important especially when validating new releases to package managers

[patent shard]

It's no longer there, I did multiple scan attempts
It does say first detected 5PM last detected 6PM

[fiery canopy]

Hmm
which

[patent shard]

It also showed two apple air tags
I thought that was a weird notification dupe but I think there were two

But, yeah, def no longer there

[fiery canopy]

Thats uhh concerning

Anyways ima eep
gn

[patent shard]

oh well
So they know my location, oh well
The concerning thing is if they wanted to steal the car
But the keys are out of it and it's locked so I did what I could
It could possibly be a false positive but ehhh.. I don't think so
It showed like a 57 minute gap between detection and last detected and the trip was a lot less than that
Hmm

[proven merlin]

Whats funny to me is the whole airtag stuff wouldn't work where i live.. almost no one uses iphones here

Well to be fair most people here use landlines..

[kind nimbus]

In which century do you live?

[tender river]

16th

[minor crag]

HELP

[olive sable]

[minor crag]

I'm scared

[minor crag]

Study is quite a good playlist

7.3 / 10

[leaden crest]

whoa

is that how vtubers actually look in obs

other than the obvious scp vibe

[minor crag]

1 second

I got vtube studio on 1 screen with a green background

Then in OBS I just use screen capture and el chroma key to remove the background

I don't think I'm supposed to do it like this

[leaden crest]

if it aint broke

is that your ai or you

[minor crag]

Ai :3

Currently its just doing the idle animation since I only opened it to show my jank setup

[leaden crest]

looks neurolike to me

[minor crag]

Its the free model in vtube studio

[leaden crest]

ik yeah

wait it’s the only free model?

thats funny neuro has permanently tainted the only free model with her image

[minor crag]

The options are very limited

There is another girl then 2 cats and a dog

[minor crag]

I have found out that 95% of tts models are Irish

I have no idea why but they all sound Irish

[mighty thorn]

Good news

You don’t have to test any more

Cause I already did

And the answer is chatterbox turbo

[minor crag]

Owo?

That actually sounds quite good

Thank you for el suggestion

[mighty thorn]

They all say “500x real time on single gpu” but will test on $50,000 B200, this can run slightly above real time on $250 3060

And uses like less than half of the vram

For results basically 95% of qwen3tts

[minor crag]

I might actually have to run on CPU for a bit so I'll have to see how that goes

I don't really need real time so I should be fine

[mighty thorn]

What could you possibly be doing that isn’t real time but has a live2d model

[minor crag]

I'm doing an ai vtuber but a tiny delay should be fine

Or it won't be fine

One of those two

[mighty thorn]

Running on cpu is a lot more than a tiny delay

That’s like 100ms versus 30s

[minor crag]

30 seconds???

Well I might need a second GPU if CPU is that bad for tts

[mighty thorn]

What LLM are you using

You don’t need much

For vtuber stuff

[minor crag]

I'm using phi 4 14B at int 8

[mighty thorn]

Counter offer: Gemma3-4b

[minor crag]

I need an llm capable of epic Quoridor gameplay

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quoridor

[mighty thorn]

Train separate MLP and have gemma3-4b commentate on gameplay

Source: Neuro

[minor crag]

I was making a joke but I'm already planning to use separate models

I'm using a larger model because I need something that is quite capable

[mighty thorn]

For what

[minor crag]

Well I need it to play RTS games that require a decent level of thinking and I also want to not have it feel stupid

[mighty thorn]

CoT thinking or just “large model = large thinking” thinking?

[minor crag]

A bit of both but mainly large model = large thinking

[mighty thorn]

Just do logit distillation, could probably do it on device if use qlora

[minor crag]

I have no idea what that is but I shall take a look

[mighty thorn]

Basically log the full context of your large model doing whatever complex tasks but also all of the tokens it didn’t choose and their probabilities then you train the small model of those and it actually learns the behavior instead of blindly mimicking the text

[minor crag]

That is actually quite cool

It also sounds quite easy to implement

I shall think about this

[kind fable]

1. fuck macro$lop
2. fuck numpy
   genuinely why the fuck does numpy force me to compile it my fucking lord just compile it yourself and give me the fucking binaries what the fuck
   i hate this shit i hate this shit i hate this shit
   genuinely we have a fucking package system, it's not for me to have to use the same system as when we vendor deps
   bruh
   -# rant end

[mighty thorn]

We should add ai

[glad path]

numpy??

like the python package?

you can use pip

or would that not get you a binary

[kind fable]

nope

this fucker doesn't want to

all i'm doing is installing hugging face

and mf numpy be like just let me build myself

oh fuck you doesn't use windows for C++ get get fricked

i exclusively do C++ on Linux via WSL because fucking windows sucks

honestly thanks to this guy for making a guide how to actually download minimal shit without bs

it was there 2 days ago and dissapeared yesterday

How else are they gonna pay their engineers 500k/year

[jagged turtle]

[vague sonnet]

by firing them and using AI to write all the code

[jagged turtle]

they boutta try and push mythos more than opus

[glass flower]

these are all the models available for copilot plus. there was opus 4.6 and 4.7 there with a 3x multiplier

[safe path]

[jagged turtle]

oh wtf

I need to check that

[safe path]

there are rumors floating around that copilot might be switching to token-based billing soon

[stark needle]

lmao

[stark needle]

People abuse it so much

[safe path]

(also copilot limts are now very low, there's now both 5 hour quota and weekly quota, none of them are documented)

[glass flower]

i guess people abused it too much

[jagged turtle]

oh wait copilot plus

I only have pro

still tho I don't see opus 4.6 as an option I can select anymore

[glass flower]

wait pro is the lower tier? yeah i have that one too

the 10$ one

[stark needle]

Atp just self host llm

Infinite usage

[safe path]

just use the llm in ur brain

[glass flower]

i fucking hope they don't the only reason i bought it is because of autocomplete and the free uses

[glass jetty]

stop talking about ai

[stark needle]

which brain

[glass jetty]

really

[safe path]

its really not sustainable for them to host this

[vague sonnet]

using ai for code is a great way to both lower the quality and increase time spent

[jagged turtle]

copilot plus doesn't exist, it's pro plus

now add a max and ultra premium revamped

[glass flower]

yeah im currently looking at it

there is copilot free,student,pro,pro+,business,enterprise

[jagged turtle]

speaking of wtf is the point of student

[glass flower]

to get you hooked

[glass flower]

same reason there is a student discount or free plan on basically every software

[safe path]

[jagged turtle]

yes

[glass flower]

wait opus only exists now for business. pro+ only gets 4.7

[safe path]

but yeah, if this goes on, i'm going to have a job in 2030 that is too forbiddenly expensive to AI

[kind fable]

🤣

[jagged turtle]

wait

[tropic spindle]

And will somehow probably still be safer and more functional than SLS

[jagged turtle]

opus 4.6 only being for business while opus 4.7 is available for pro+ is crazy

[glass flower]

honestly i'm not even close to my limits and i'm already over using it... if they keep it somewhat similar to how it is rightnow. i'll keep using it. i will never get close to the limits anyway

probably to keep business workflows to just keep working without having to change their harnesses or prompts

same reason you can still get gpt 4.1 over api but not on the site anymore

[fast pagoda]

correct

[jagged turtle]

did they forget to update this or are maintainers genuinely only given github copilot student now

[fast pagoda]

it's student

same as jetbrains

[jagged turtle]

?

[fast pagoda]

you can get jetbrains stuff if you're An oss maintainer

but im pretty sure it's the same pack as student

i could be horribly misremembering

[jagged turtle]

idr that

even if they did how would that work anyways

[fast pagoda]

you haev to apply

[glass flower]

what does it take to be qualified as a oss maintainer? is my random project i uploaded 10 years ago enough?

[glass flower]

i still never tried emacs. i'm a nvim user

how does it compare?

[stark needle]

My ex bosses boss worked on TensorFlow and Jax and he told me he got copilot through him having contributions in percentage higher than a repo-specific baseline percentage, with only very large repos considered in this program

[glass flower]

[safe path]

its actually pretty nice with doom
but i don't use evil mode to intentionally spite vim users

[glass flower]

with doom?

[safe path]

doom emacs, a flavour

i used to use prelude, but i got tired of configuring, so i went to doom emacs

i have 3 workspaces open at the same time on emacs and switch between them pretty regularly

each workspace contains its own buffer list and tree, and can also emulate terminals and has a nice git tui via magit

normally this would take years of configuring, but doom emacs makes it easier

i usually start emacs at the start of the day, and only close it when i shut down my pc

[stark needle]

:niuh:

[safe path]

i used to literally do everything in emacs (emails, task management, controlling docker, looking at cloud resources on aws (there's a package for that))

but recent TUIs r too nice to not use them

[glass flower]

[stark needle]

Filing taxes in emacs?

[glass flower]

the doom emacs looks very similar to how my nvim is configured currently

[safe path]

the IRS does not publish a emacs package for that

oh u can also run debuggers in emacs

[vague sonnet]

guess you will have to stop paying taxes oops!

[safe path]

i dont pay them anyway

[glass flower]

you can in nvim too

[safe path]

(joke)

gdb is notoriously difficult to operate without some form of a UI

im so happy i have a proper interface via emacs

that being said im too used to print statement debugging , compute resources are basically free to run the same program 30x in 20 seconds

it does have a proper ui in nvim (atleast with the plugin)

Opus 4.7 just made a grammatical error for me

[sick owl]

Yeah this is probably like a 4 bit or below quant right now

[jagged turtle]

yeah I was kinda confused lol

[vague sonnet]

you mean the overly expensive technology with tiny income potential isn't paying for itself? who would have thought

investor money flow must be decreasing

they will try to cash grab as much as they can before they go down

[vague sonnet]

that's some 1.3B model performance 🔥

[rigid snow]

being at peak capacity isn't a bad thing, it's just that now they have mythos and that's eating into the compute budget really bad

even with the limited access

[vague sonnet]

"higher maintenance cost isn't a bad thing"

ok bro

[rigid snow]

does "peak capacity" mean not what i think it does

[vague sonnet]

it means making full use of hardware I assume
while it would be cheaper to you know
use less hardware

[rigid snow]

i mean having 100% of available compute utilized isn't bad, as opposed to having <100%
because that's actually lower maintenance cost per paying customer

[rigid snow]

tv toast

[sage crag]

toshiba

[rigid snow]

brand reveal??

[sage crag]

no

lg

[rigid snow]

[vague sonnet]

the maintenance cost is still crazy high

the 3 steps of a business
costs, product/service and converting it to profit
in case of LLMs you have high costs and low conversion to profit

[rigid snow]

sure

[vague sonnet]

which is why they need to charge more if the investors are becoming less reliable

for a low value service that most people aren't willing to spend too much on

ive been eyeing that watercooled phone but i want to give it some years to make sure its not gonna kill the phone before getting anything with that system

[flint dome]

budget and what do you want out of a phone

[olive sable]

ill probably be paying it off monthly so up to 1K i guess. and its mainly just for tasking pictures and watching stuff on the go. or discord i guess

[flint dome]

hmmmm if you have upto 1k then you can prob get even the s26

[olive sable]

doesnt have to be the newest one, instead of the s26 ultra for 1.5k, the s25 ultra is only 1K and fits in the budget

[stark needle]

Samsung, pixel 10 is trash

[flint dome]

samsung's flagships tend to be the best

[flint dome]

huh, why 1.5, we get it for 1k here....

do you need it now or can you wait for a holiday discount

[stark needle]

Do u even need that many cameras and performance

Just buy s25

Or s24

[flint dome]

i know pixel sucks, but why though, do you have personal experience

the build quality does suck as far as i know

damn screens crack too fast

[stark needle]

Yeah i have always had pixels

[olive sable]

im getting it via my internet provider thingy.

[olive sable]

what issue did they have with arm

[olive sable]

i think my internet provider chooses their own prices based on what they feel like, i guess i could just buy a phone at mediamarkt

[sick owl]

Tbh my pixel 10 pro is fine for my purposes but I wouldn't buy one if you want to really hammer the GPU

[stark needle]

Just get S25 FE at mediamarkt honestly

[olive sable]

what about the ultra

[sick owl]

I got mine on a deal for the decent mid range CPU and 16GB RAM

[stark needle]

I mean sure but do u nuke ur phone with games or need 100x zoom of some sort or whatever rly?

wait im reading through and they were big why'd they fall off anyways

.... bought mips? thats new

[olive sable]

the price difference is not that much tho. and the screen is 1440p

[stark needle]

Isn't the s25 fe supposed to be like 500 euro

While ultra 1200 euro

[olive sable]

oh it is, i searched the wrong one i guess

the ultra is only 900

[flint dome]

why the fuck did they buy mips in the first place that thing was already murdered by arm anyways

[stark needle]

I mean if u rly need the ultra it's not that terrible of a price

[sick owl]

They broke up with Apple

Did a lot of damage

[olive sable]

im just thinking if i spend money on a phone, i might as-well get a pretty good one

[sick owl]

Specifically when Apple Silicon started being a thing

[flint dome]

wasnt it that apple said we'll develop gpus inhouse and then left them

[sick owl]

Apple announced they'd stop licencing their GPUs and that was quite a shock

[sick owl]

Correct ye

[stark needle]

All new samsungs come with 7 year updates

[olive sable]

i dont really care about updates tbh, aslong as the phone works

[vague sonnet]

get a brick phone fr fr

[sick owl]

They also had a presence early in the dGPU race but Nvidia won out because their cards needed specific targeted optimisation for their tile based deferred rendering architecture

[flint dome]

"bought mips to compete with arm soc stuff and bet on android to start with" yeah no good luck

[sick owl]

Nvidia and ATI used more standard hardware transform and lighting so while Imaginations GPUs were very efficient and priced well they couldn't get enough devs on board

[trim valve]

im ngl I've had a samsung a52 for ages and its been great

[sick owl]

That's why they pivoted to mobile

[trim valve]

i don't see the point in flagships for most people

tho I do want a smaller phone to replace this

[olive sable]

my a52 is falling apart, and i just want something with a brighter screen and a better camera

[trim valve]

why would you buy a samsung phone if you want a good camera

[olive sable]

the new a5x are like 600 euro now for some reasom, they used to be cheap

[olive sable]

i got told the pixel sucks, and i want android so no ios

[trim valve]

[fast pagoda]

That's cheap now me bucko

[trim valve]

who told you the pixel sucks

like it has some shortcomings im sure but

[fast pagoda]

Yeah wait who said this lule

[olive sable]

shadowlilac

[olive sable]

[flint dome]

yeah no im looking at their history and they had some good ideas but missed out some very obvious ones

[sick owl]

Pixels great if you get it on a deal, unbeatable price vs features then

[trim valve]

[sick owl]

Wouldn't go full price though

[olive sable]

hmm, it seems like the A56 is back to 300 euro. the A54 had a weird thing where samsung made it 500 euro

[trim valve]

@stark needle any specifics on why the pixel 10 sucks or was it mostly just malding about no gemini

[fast pagoda]

[sick owl]

The pixel 10 has Gemini though

[olive sable]

its a google phone, so i would expect it to. i dont really care about it tho

[sick owl]

It do be the worlds most robust egg timer

[fast pagoda]

I got a full year of Gemini pro ,with the 10 pro xl

[sick owl]

I did too but I get it free as a UK student anyway

[olive sable]

i always forget you're as tudent and not a reporter

potat is just chris kamara to me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAN8g7Fd2Cw

[sick owl]

Oh right yeah

[opaque sigil]

the greatest thing about the pixel 10 is that you can just buy a pixel 9 for way cheaper and get a phone that's 90% the same

[olive sable]

im eying the REDMAGIC 11 Pro, it looks cool

no camera bump

[opaque sigil]

i think you get 4 years of updates too in the eu, idk if that just means security updates or also OS updates

either way a big upgrade over the non-existent support they had before

oh nvm

it's 2 years of OS updates and 5 years of security updates

i'm currently waiting for my used pixel 9 pro fold to arrive, hopefully it won't be in too bad of a condition

[trim valve]

I'm honestly tempted by a pixel 9 just because I find my a52 too big

I wanna go back to a small phone

[opaque sigil]

rip zenfone

[trim valve]

vibe coding is great

I have a group project where we're told we need to vibecode and it makes deadlines a lot less stressful when you can just delegate to clanker

[opaque sigil]

[olive sable]

i find my a52 too small

[trim valve]

i do wonder how much my uni fucked up copilot overall

they made everyone in my year sign up for the education plan

to vibecode on this project

[opaque sigil]

probably a drop in the water compared to all the people abusing the free tier

can't have shit

[flint dome]

the education plan is free

[trim valve]

true, though a few hundred students all freeloading undoubtedly doesn't help

[flint dome]

you just need to upload your school/uni id and they'll give you copilot pro

[trim valve]

we got emailed a certificate because our uni doesn't have the right kind of id lol

also the agent keeps having an identity crisis

it can't decide if it's gpt5.3 codex, 5.2 codex, 4o, gpt5

and keeps going back on commits it's made to "fix" it

[amber fractal]

I thought it was Claude, weird

[trim valve]

I'm using their cloud agents thing

which only does 5.2 codex, 5.3 codex or "auto"

[opaque sigil]

are you in auto mode

[trim valve]

nope, 5.3 mode

[opaque sigil]

[trim valve]

I think it dumbs the model down if your task runs super long

[stark needle]

Gpu

And cpu performance sucks as well

For the gen

Pixel tensor chips are basically all the same no improvement

[trim valve]

ok vibe coding people, if I hypothetically needed to merge 7 conflicting branches with as little effort and whilst spending no money, what would be my best option

[trim valve]

I need sleep tho

[rough bloom]

[rough bloom]

I'm still not sure what this "agentic era" everyones talking about is but cool

[opaque sigil]

tokens go brrrrrr

With JAX and Pathways, we can now scale to more than 1 million TPU chips in a single training cluster. Virgo Network can link over 134,000 TPU 8t chips with up to 47 petabits/sec of non-blocking bi-sectional bandwidth in a single fabric
some of these numbers just sound made up

that's 350Gbps per tpu hmm

[amber fractal]

Here before fp4

[opaque sigil]

funny you say that

[amber fractal]

HAHAA CALLED IT

[rare bramble]

when FP1

[amber fractal]

Is it just the sign bit at that point?

Meaning it'd just be +1 and -1 and whatever tf 0 ends up being

[opaque wharf]

2

[amber fractal]

You are not wrong

[kind nimbus]

I recently used Claude opus at a CTF. It was able to solve some of the easier challenges but not the harder ones lol.

[flint dome]

https://tenor.com/view/higuruma-jjk-jujutsu-kaisen-jjk-memes-oh-my-god-gif-867178068401775273

my fucking teammate got his father to fix our java project

after having completely vibecoded the thing

and then his idiot father pushed the changes with his own account

how am i supposed to explain this to the teacher that why is his father's name in the authors list and why has he made huge commits

lesson: never leave the project to your teammates just do it yourself if you can

[sick owl]

You know, the pixel 10 might have a weak ass GPU but that NPU is sweet

You can get Gemma 4 E4B on it now and its a damn good model for its size

[kind nimbus]

[vague sonnet]

rewrite all the branches

[foggy finch]

I wonder which agent is best programmer?

Good job Anthropic have it locked up tight

[maiden geyser]

why can't you fix it locally and then force push

[foggy finch]

I also think Claude is pretty good. I had it write an audio visualizer and it came out pretty decent

[foggy finch]

You'd still have to deal with my Echo.

[opaque sigil]

actually, that command doesn't work when there is more than 1 author

[opaque wharf]

Just revert and then commit again using your account

[flint dome]

at this point we're just going to pray the teacher is just technically incompetent enough to not view our commit history but competent enough to understand our code

this entire gamble depends on the fact that our head of department teaches us from slides that are from 2004

[opaque sigil]

or you could just rewrite the history real quick

it's not that bad

git filter-repo makes it very simple if you don't need commit signatures
