I'm on the fence for SM bc of 8GB GPU RAM, but I just enjoy the tsunami of chinese followups after it, so guess I just have to buy one SM to make the wave work.

reading the comments on HN, guess most did not really read to the end. lol

with open sourced models getting more popular (and how ideology fixation is growing in both US and China), this type of work is very much appreciated.

is there some benchmark?

azure seems quite shitty too. I only use it for having GPT models which is a corp requirement. For 1 hour total I spent on azure.com in past weeks, besides how slow it usually is, I ran into two issues:

- models sometimes got deployed to an unwanted instance, likely because some API is slow and front end state was not well maintained, so user clicking Next too soon will end up screw up the data being submitted

- one of the models (5-mini) deployment took very long and failed, it apparently ended up in a bad and invisible state, and future models can't be deployed any more on that instance. I retried today, same thing, gave up and created a new instance/

Azure AI is supposed to be an area MS making all the bets which I assume should have high quality, but apart from frequent update, it's same low quality as MS Teams.

Everything breaks.

Jobs, if lived, will bow to ads or get fired.

i gave up on gemini cli.

1 in 3 times I used it in past 2 months, it failed for really odd reasons, sometimes the node app just exception quit, sometimes gemini stuck and blame itself and gave up. same task I throw to cc and codex, they nailed without a blink...

in this particular case maybe. but i don't think he's pardoning only crypto people. as long as criminals can offer sth useful to him, they will get above the law.

same, the genocide does not impact me directly in any material sense, but it changes how I see the world and human beings fundamentally.

You basically have to choose from

- Zed: VC funded open source

- Sublime Text: indie closed source

None is ideal, but I guess we all know why.

the integration is nice, but has some rough edges, I ran into situations that things becomes hard to stop

give me $50k raise and I need only $10k/yr.

seriously, I don't see the AI outcome worth that much yet.

On the current level of ai tools, the attention you need to manage 10+ async tasks are over limit for most human.

In 10 years maybe, but $100k probably worths much less by then.

> Even if it’s a bubble, sharing some of it with employees “before it bursts” is a noble action.

the bar for being noble is just low. or maybe I should interpret noble has the noble class in the history, that actually describes it well.

I read a few biographies for western missionaries to Asia, they all ended up get paid handsomely, except those not lived long enough see that day.

If anybody in OpenAI ever had any second thought about taking other people's property without consent, that doubt should go away now with $1.5M in pocket.
