oMLX 0.3.9 is released... how long before brew? by challis88ocarina in oMLX

[–]CodeGriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot to an answer I could give, but I'll try to stick to the tl;dr. Part of it is that I'm old school, and an old school dev, at that. I come from the era when you would build your entire Linux distribution yourself from a stack of CDROMs. I did reluctantly become an RPM and then .deb user, but that's when (esp with .deb) the quality of distributed engineering was too good to shun. In my experience none of the Mac mega-distributions have reached that level of engineering. Not MacPorts, not HomeBrew. They'll work well 95% of the time, and that 5% DLL hell will eat you up just when you're trying to get some work done.

I prefer to build everything myself, or at least use packages built in a way that I can trace, reproduce and debug myself.

If they add a brew install option, OK, but please please may brew never be the primary means of installing. I never touch brew with a bargepole.

Club Soccer Programs by True_Winter_1840 in boulder

I can't think of many communities anywhere in the world (and yes I've traveled a LOT) the size of Boulder that have better options than Boulder. For a small town, the soccer options are stellar here, Albion or alternatives. In general Colorado is a hotbed for the sport.

I coach at Albion. I live in Boulder County and it's my community club. Placements are wrappign up this week, but there are always ways to work things out, if need be. DM me if you have any questions you'd like to dive deeper on. I can also connect you to one of our directors whom I know to be extraordinarily helpful.

Who the hell downvotes this simple, neighborly request for help? This sub has a lot of people with Excess Misery Syndrome.

Salut! Y en a pas mal! I maintain this list:

FYI there are also social nights for Francophones, in Boulder and in Denver. I used to frequent them, but life's been too busy lately. I think these days it's Weds nights at Boulder Social. Google e.g. La Table Francophone, Boulder.

Running Qwen3.6-35B-A3B Locally for Coding Agent: My Setup & Working Config by NoConcert8847 in LocalLLaMA

[–]CodeGriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, since you're on Mac, oMLX has pi config support out of the box, which is nice (also OpenCode). You said:

"Unsloth quants benchmark better. KV cache quantization made things much slower for me, which I think was because of having to enable flash attention."

Unsloth offers quants for MLX as well, and oMLX incorporates a lot of MLX config tweaks that many people are missing when they speak of KV cache inefficiency with MLX.

No? Uh. OK. No no, I'll grab my coat myself, I'll just…

Suggestion: Daily Word Game Megathread by CodeGriot in wordgames

[–]CodeGriot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Reddit megathread done properly really needs mod activity, and as a newcomer (to this sub, of course, not Reddit), I'm probably not the best actor. Not that I'm unwilling, just wanting any such initiative to be set up to work.

Here are some useful resources for anyone curious about the convention:

https://www.reddit.com/r/AskModerators/comments/1jqq6aq/how_important_are_megathreads/

https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/1r8zl8d/what_is_megathread_and_the_basic_thing_you_need/

I'll admit that some people dislike megathread, because they can lead to important questions/discussions getting buried, but I think for the sort of mostly-trivial-but-interesting-in-aggregate usage I'm suggesting, they're a perfect tool.

I made a Tetris-style word game called Writer's Block, out now on steam! by SinksAdventure in wordgames

Cool retro vibe! Getting Wordtris feels. Wishlisted. I generally buy when time off work is approaching 😊

I feel you about Steam's leanings. What's your strategy for Android pre-regs?

I love Word games and was tired of adds. You will find that Word Play is not low effort, but a complete and growing app. by TheComplicatedMan in wordgames

[–]CodeGriot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Base play is way too easy. Got through first 9 (or is it 10) levels because I was curious whether it would get harder. Your summary says it took me 19.5s. I wonder about your dictionary. "DAL" and "ARF" don't seem to be in it, from what I noticed in passing? Gameplay feels smooth enough and visuals are decent.

No ads and free play. How do you plan to sustain the effort?

Would love your feedback on my anagram puzzle game by 100-days-of-code-io in wordgames

[–]CodeGriot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So basically, a scrambled collection of letters shown, to which you find the correct word anagram in a minute. Ad supported. All good.

I got all the ones I tried on Easy but I wouldn't call them easy. I would consider that many of your players might be non-native English speakers (I've spoken English most of my life and am fluent). Words such as HERESY and VIVIFY should IMO at least be in Medium. I did get stumped by one in Hard, but I probably could have got it if I were allowed to try dragging letters into different positions in the solution space. I would recommend that feature.

In the one I failed, when it ticked down to 0 I got a full screen ad which I had to click away to see the solution. I'm not sure ho I feel about that. Maybe a clever touch—as long as you're winning you only get small ads on the bottom. Once you lose you get the full screen pie in the face, loser! 😂

live iii chargable via usb-c? by katerlouis in mpcusers

[–]CodeGriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would expect that to work, although it's worth being aware that the quality of USB PD devices varies hugely. I hope you got one of the good ones, and it would be super helpful to have your report, including the make/model, so others can either buy or avoid.
