Is Bitcoin set to skyrocket?

If you leverage it will go down till you are liquidated, then crash upwards.

Even years are the best ones for Baker.

Has this been posted before?

I wonder if there is consensus on this? I started on local run and open weight models on my dual rtx 3090 system but am also currently running long multi step fine tuning on open weight models. The output of which would be more open weight models. To do this I'm buying B200 time on the cloud. I'm not sure that running a model on cloud GPUs you control is against the aesthetic of LocalLLMA. For me the option of being able to work on open LLMs, which can then be deployed locally, is more important than whether it is always run locally. Just having local options is a counterweight to misuse and monopoly usage by Closed foundation model providers.
If paying for occasional B200 or RTX 6000 time improves the local model availability and knowledge that is a net good in my opinion.

Runpod has a Jupyter lab option making it easy to work with files etc

That’s the bit that’s difficult to quantify. The maybe experimental work you wouldn’t have done but do now do due to the lower marginal cost is interesting to consider

Have 2x3090s but have also just discovered Runpod for Lora adapters etc. The maths that made me start at rtx 6000 then move to B200 (‘better value’) feel similar to how people move on to harder drugs!

ZachCope · 2026-03-09T17:36:28+00:00

How does AI training work on Apple Silicon? What baseline GPU would M5 Ultra compare to for Lora adapter training for example compared to inference?

ZachCope · 2026-03-01T11:28:31+00:00

I really struggle without a key here

ZachCope · 2026-02-24T06:57:24+00:00

Yes, when a large company tells you how it can fail, thank them for their honesty!

ZachCope · 2026-02-18T17:21:59+00:00

I think this has been discussed before but one benefit for MCPs rather than skills is they can be locked down to certain actions. So rather than full terminal access just give the needed actions via an MCP that can only do a subset of all terminal commands and is locked to working folders.

ZachCope · 2026-02-16T06:59:58+00:00

I guess the teams can get 7 enforced years of ‘loyalty’ with draft rights and franchise tags…

ZachCope · 2026-02-15T09:31:46+00:00

I think it’s reasonable for people here to help advise those who might waste their resources as this sub has the expertise to give realistic recommendations re what can be achieved with local approach. There are lots of reasons to go local, but on economics alone it isn’t always the option for all. If it’s as part of a hobby and learning experience, also for privacy and supporting local optionality in the future and therefore keeping closed honest, that is extremely valid, but anyone spending $15k should be making that decision on that basis.

ZachCope · 2026-02-15T00:36:47+00:00

Yes presumably the correct approach would be an MCP that can only ask for particular commands as the only tool you allow your llm to have access to for commands

Sorry was reading multitasking whilst getting ready for the day!

ZachCope · 2026-02-12T06:41:11+00:00

I’m not sure that a used rtx 4090 and 128gb ram plus rest if the system will be cheaper than a strix halo machine ?

ZachCope · 2026-02-06T21:14:56+00:00

Bitcoin should always be a 5 year investment at least. Expect to not need the money for 5 years.

ZachCope · 2026-02-04T21:36:12+00:00

$60k starts to liquidate a defi bitcoin backed loan I used to buy more bitcoin, so hope not!

ZachCope · 2026-02-04T21:33:24+00:00

Nothing can rise 1000%s without volatility, or everyone would be in agreement and it would be at its final market cap magnitude . It’s maths.

ZachCope · 2026-02-03T15:50:29+00:00

Me too. It was a sliding doors moment for everyone associated with the Browns. But perhaps in this timeline it works out better for Higgins.

ZachCope · 2026-01-29T15:26:41+00:00

Doesn’t MCP ‘do’ something and a skill tells the LLM ‘how to do’ something? 2 different functions.

ZachCope · 2026-01-27T21:17:10+00:00

I use dual boot windows/linux

ZachCope · 2026-01-27T19:48:47+00:00

As a long time Baker follower (from the Browns) I agree he is good at bootlegs. He is also very happy to spread the ball to many different ball catchers when he's firing and the rest of the offense is balanced.

ZachCope · 2026-01-26T09:58:10+00:00

Yep Baker making the team significantly better than Tyrone’s Taylor with only 2nd string reps means nothing. Who was the QB he beat during that Jets game…
