I think they are asking about the tool itself, not WASM.

This tool seems useful for running 0 dependency JavaScript with isolation through web assembly as an alternative to the isolation and ease of use provided by tools such as cloudflare workers.

Not technically the full R1 model, it’s talking about the distillations where Deepseek trained Qwen and Llama models based on R1 output

Yeah, that’s what I was alluding to. I think the OPs point still holds here- both of those are quite a bit harder than the built in Mac solution

AEM is a little sketchy though, you need to trust a flash drive to hold it, and make sure that drive doesn’t get overridden by a malicious attacker. Your link goes more into depth about the disadvantages

Would that not be infringement then? You’re taking their name, branding, reviews, etc and basically presenting them as your own with only a small disclaimer. Does not seem like an amazing choice to release before hearing back from them. Could easily be mistaken as an official browser from the team on a cursory glance

I think the disclaimer that you’re not affiliated with the uBlock Origin project is too low down on the page. It really just looks like an official project until you scroll, and even then the text is easy to miss.

I would move the disclaimer up higher and maybe remove some of the uBlock branding to make it more obvious that it’s not affiliated. Plus, it seems the browser could be used by more extensions that would be affected by MV3, so maybe it would be better to do a rebrand anyways.

Anyways, that’s just my two cents. Good look with the project, looks like you have a great start!

Thanks for the suggestions! I’m fairly comfortable cooking so this sounds great. I’m also looking to prep meals with good macros, which seem to be pretty hard to find unless it’s something simple like chicken on rice. Some people on instagram have really nice looking high-protein meals, but I’m not sure how well these would prep or if the listed macros or even right. I’ll try out the meal kit service- i never thought of it as a way to just try out a lot of different types of food! Super good idea

New comment by sudohackthenews in "Researchers design wearable tech that can sense glucose levels more accurately"

sudohackthenews — Sun, 05 Jan 2025 21:28:20 +0000

It sounds like the system would release a hormone known as glucagon when blood sugar levels are too low. Glucagon triggers cellular pathways that break down glycogen stores into glucose molecules, and releases the glucose into the bloodstream. This is opposed to how diabetics handle it normally, by merely eating a sugary snack- however that takes longer to impact blood sugar levels. Depleting these stores could be catastrophic when they actually need a large amount of sugar to be dumped into the bloodstream

Thanks for everything Jake. I only have a vague understanding of what you are going through after seeing my grandma go through some of the same things, yet I still can’t imagine how hard it is for you and your family.

Wishing you and Bess all the best and if you or her need anything feel free to reach out. Godspeed

People have gotten manageable results on all sorts of hardware. People have even squeezed a few tokens/second out of Raspberry PIs. The small models are pretty performant- they get good results on consumer gaming hardware. My 2021 laptop with a 3070m (only 8gb vram) runs 8b models faster than I can read, and even the original M1 chips can run the models fine.

New comment by sudohackthenews in "How to Produce Green Hydrogen for $1/kg (2023)"

sudohackthenews — Sat, 09 Mar 2024 16:12:47 +0000

To extract 1kg of hydrogen with electrolysis you need ~50 kWh with inefficiencies (39.4 with no losses)[0], while one kilo of hydrogen only has 33.6 kWh[1]-roughly 1.17kWh to produce 1 kWh worth of hydrogen (no losses). For diesel, it seems to be quite similar-roughly 1.18 kWh per 1 kWh, however in reality at current efficiencies for hydrogen it is more like 1.5 kWh/1kWh. It seems companies need more incentive to switch to hydrolysis based solutions to cancel out the much higher costs of hydrogen storage
