@happyborg I've been using it with https://continue.dev as a local copilot. I mostly use it for doing basic refactoring or looking up syntax. I think search in general is getting worse and with local models you get the chance to do it all offline. I specifically care about having a fine tuned model people can have within their browser to let them make p2p apps fully offline and on mesh networks.
Excited for 100 years from now when people start saying "Can Your Hear Me?" instead of "Hello"
This post by @maggie has some great ideas on how #LLM tech can help enable #LocalFirst applications for regular folks. I've been wanting to do something similar within @agregore some day with local LLMs helping people author p2p web apps.
They should make a Warrior Cats series in the style of Cats 2019.

I'm really really really not interested in computers getting more powerful.
I am super interested in them being more repairable and modifiable, drawing less power, lasting and being supported for way longer etc. That stuff still gets me excited
@enby_of_the_apocalypse @futurebird Sorry bad article it was the first result I found that was vaguely related. I'll see about getting a better link on Monday after I'm back at my pooter.

I was so excited I forgot to add the video! This is a single 7.5W laser running at 30kHz sample rate, the tracking is essentially a travelling salesman algorithm. Oh and the laser control software is all Seb’s too. Go check out Seb’s work! Truly terrific stuff https://seblee.co #asteroids #laser #emfcamp

As a general rule, the state should over-supply services. There should be slack in the system almost all the time. Relaxed GPs with lots of time to talk to their patients. So many teachers that the main trouble is finding rooms for them all.
Not only does this see a better quality of service mostly, but it also cushions the system in the event of an unexpected shock.
If you have just enough professionals to deliver at 100%, you don’t have enough professionals.
@futurebird Some companies are already working on harnessing human brain organoids for compute. So there's defs folks trying to understand how to harness brain structure. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2024-03-international-team-vascularization-organoids-microfluidic.html

My view on how fedi's social model is inherently humane (This should really be a blog post) (1/6)
For a while i've been talking about the "Fedi Tapestry", how each server essentially adds to a locality of fedi - how it creates a "local bubble", that doesn't become an echo chamber.
It's difficult to explain why, I often refer to the fact that open federation enables people to connect with others.
But why doesn't it turn into something like the large social platforms, the so-called "Public Squares"?
I think it has a lot to do with the fact how each server has an overlap with other servers, wrt social elements.
See the below image, here i use colors as a single dimension of "social likeliness", but there are incredibly many different spectrums and factors that influence this, so just see this as it is; a simplified model.

@ShadowJonathan Is that when you write mostly C code but build it with a c++ compiler?
@nasser like softlock? More reason to replay it >:P
@brandon some wget and a postgres instance can probably get you far. If you find a perfect tool though do ping me 🙏
@brandon Exactly what I've been wanting. Thinking I'll feed my browser history and links from various chats into it once I get the base figured out
@jeremy_list That'a really cool. Do you have commits for when you finally fixed it?

New Paper: On the application of Bloom Filter Hierarchies representing
Sub-word Token Bigram Occurrence to Probabilistic Full Text Search
This is a note regarding a prototype I've been working on for a few months in the domain of Decentralized Search (and Indexing)
It covers a data structure with interesting properties that I've been playing with, and documents some experiments regarding naive full text search performance.
Comments/questions/critique welcome.

@nasser I love how the one sheep freaks out and does a loop at the bridge 🤣 The flocking behavior looks great
Struggled to get this code parser and transformer together for months now. Now that it's doing the thing it feels very satisfying. The data flow is now my plaything. 😈😈😈
@hugo I hadn't heard of this. Ty for the link. 🙇
