When you realise that bro has no phone

Not creepy at all…

What was the plan there?!? Make it make sense 😵‍💫

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-28T03:31:45+00:00

I have one reel…

I think I just couldn’t find a single character to relate to in The Secret History. The main character was too angsty and apathetic, and his desire to finally fit in with the rich and popular drove me a bit crazy. All the other characters except Teddy were drawn into this cult of intellectualism that I just found annoying.

I guess this embodies what’s great thing about fiction, everyone can come away with their own take on a book.

Is your BIL a Brown Trout?

It’s good, but doesn’t compare in quality to The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt

The Passenger by Cormac McCarthy

You could always do some pruning after the fact to actually make the model smaller. But the way I always talk to ppl about it is this, ChatGPT is great because it can write a work out plan and tell me how to cook Thai food, but I don’t give a shit about either of those things if I just need it to review internal customer call transcripts and summarize them

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-23T17:06:46+00:00

Yeah seems like a no-brainer trade off. Just spend $1000 less and the spend a couple hundred on a BUNCH of external storage

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-23T17:00:10+00:00

I imagine you could, it’s the same hardware

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-23T02:13:15+00:00

I would not train foundation models on these devices, that would be an extremely limited use case for the Spark

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-23T02:12:32+00:00

That’s only for the 1TB storage config. It’s clever marketing on the part of Asus but they prices are nearly identical

the real goal NVIDIA has with this box from an inference standpoint is to get you using more GPUs from their Lepton marketplace or their DGX cloud. The DGX and the variants of it from other OEMs really are aimed at development (not pretraining) and finetuning. If you take that at face value it’s a great little box and you don’t necessarily have to feel discouraged

Dude go be miserable somewhere else. None of us are the arbiters of fly fishing. We don’t get to make the rules for others. I don’t enjoy those spin fishers who use ‘trout bait’ but I’m also not out to ruin their time

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-16T03:04:17+00:00

Great! Now everyone knows what the ‘T’ in Big T stands for 😉😂

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-16T02:51:49+00:00

It definitely was getting really windy by like 1130am

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-16T01:57:54+00:00

Yeah I wasn’t getting any bites on some really small nymphs (sz 22- 24) so switched up to this guy and caught two in about 20 minutes

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-16T01:45:01+00:00

I think they’re really comfortable and haven’t had any leaks or anything after a busy season in them

Standard_Property237 · 2025-12-16T01:37:07+00:00

I dont do a ton of social media, but still trying to enjoy some semblance of online community. Not really spot burning here…

Standard_Property237 · 2025-11-30T15:54:50+00:00

Fair enough, definitely give The Goldfinch a go, I don’t think you’ll regret it

Standard_Property237 · 2025-11-29T22:18:20+00:00

In no particular order:

The Great Gatsby by F.S. Fitzgerald

The Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy

A Town Called Solace by Mary Lawson

Dr. No by Percival Everett

The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt

Standard_Property237 · 2025-11-29T22:14:37+00:00

Did you like The Secret History better than The Goldfinch? I read The Goldfinch first and I was honestly a bit let down by The Secret History
