This course teaches students to develop their own language models using Python and PyTorch, with a focus on implementation and systems optimization. Assignments involve building a standard Transformer model, optimizing attention, and applying RL to train LMs to reason.
User bought old games from GOG, likes DOSBox for Mac to run Windows games on M2 MacBook. User uses DOSBox script to run HoMM2 on Mac with installed game files from Windows machine.
This template provides a streamlined build system for developing Flipper Zero applications in Zig, integrating with the Flipper Zero SDK for type-safe and memory-safe development. It targets the STM32WB55 (ARM Cortex-M4F) and can be adjusted for other ARM devices.
The author is running a 26B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model on a 2016 Intel Xeon with 128 GB DDR3 RAM and no GPU, using a custom fork of the inference engine and various optimizations to achieve reading speed. The author emphasizes the importance of understanding how the inference engine works to overcome the usability moat in open-weight AI.
Ismaeel, Eren, Yafet, and Nikodem built Expanse to predict job resource needs and optimize HPC/GPU cluster utilization, addressing the 30-40% effective utilization issue in datacenters. Expanse outperforms state-of-the-art models by 8x and continuously updates its models to improve accuracy, offering a paid pilot deployment for HPC/GPU clusters.
The Pirate Bay was raided by 65 Swedish police officers on May 31, 2006, but the site's founders made a backup, allowing it to quickly recover and gain mainstream attention. The raid, orchestrated with US involvement, ultimately failed to deter piracy and instead turned the site's founders into heroes and propelled The Pirate Bay into the piracy icon it remains today.
Legacy Labs is a 2-month event where participants explore retro-computing and permacomputing topics in-depth. The event's creator will focus on Windows Server 2008 core and building a small business infrastructure with old hardware.
The course is based on Linux Basics for Hackers by OccupyTheWeb, breaking down core concepts and commands in plain English for beginners. It's for educational purposes only, to be practiced in a personal lab environment.
A mathematician showed that the proportion of all 2n-bit values that can be generated by the product of two n-bit values goes to zero as n becomes large. About 17% of all 64-bit integers can be written as the product of two 32-bit integers.
User built VineWall app to slow down internet speed on certain apps to curb doomscrolling. The app throttles internet speed, making videos blocky and images load slowly, making the user question their desire to scroll.
The net/http/httptrace package in Go provides hooks for tracing HTTP requests, allowing developers to see DNS resolution, connection acquisition, TLS handshake, and other events, and can be used to build a CLI and a reusable http.RoundTripper for logging timings. The package's context-based design allows it to compose with other stdlib components and provides a flexible way to add new hooks ...
Radxa announced the Dragon Q8B, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 SoC based SBC, offering high performance and features. It takes the top spot in nearly every test on sbc.compare, making it a compelling purchase for various applications.

NVIDIA Cosmos 3 is a frontier foundation model for physical AI that combines physical reasoning, world generation, and action generation. It's open-sourced with training scripts, deployment tools, and datasets for reproducible physical AI development.
The Minibook X is a budget laptop with 16GB RAM and a 512GB NVMe drive, but it has some quirks like a Linux screen rotation issue and a poor keyboard. It's perfect for trying out new Linux desktops and experimenting with different setups.
KDE celebrates 30 years of community effort, delivering control, privacy, and freedom to users with tons of software. The community is asking users to participate in the "30 for 30" challenge to help the environment.
Cloudflare Turnstile is looping in WebKitGTK browsers due to WebGL fingerprinting for tracking. Temporarily allowing fingerprinting fixes the issue, but it's blocked in WebKit for privacy reasons.
The user is creating a TUI framework called movwin to replace existing libraries due to their instability and performance issues. movwin is a Python library built on top of ncurses.
SurrealDB 3.x is a multi-model database that outperforms Postgres, MongoDB, Neo4j, and Redis in various workloads. It achieves faster CRUD, scans, and indexed lookups, making it suitable for AI agent memory and edge deployments.
The author argues that disabling asserts in production is a bad practice because it can lead to undetected misbehavior and vulnerabilities, and instead recommends keeping asserts on and optimizing for performance. The author suggests that asserts can be used for performance optimization at the cost of program misbehavior if an assert turns out to be wrong, and that this is a better approach ...
California Trout and Pacific Gas & Electric removed a barrier on Alameda Creek, allowing threatened steelhead to reach spawning grounds. The project is part of a 30-year effort to restore the creek and its fish populations.
SLAX is an alternate syntax for XSLT that uses a syntax modeled after PERL and C, making it easier to read and write. SLAX is purely syntactic sugar, with underlying constructs completely native to XSLT.
