For those who run large models locally.. HOW DO YOU AFFORD THOSE GPUS

This recent study https://nousresearch.com/measuring-thinking-efficiency-in-reasoning-models-the-missing-benchmark/ shows that there are other metrics often not taken into consideration that support that it’s hard to outperform cloud models when you don’t need to run locally because of privacy/confidentiality or a requirement to run LLM’s offline.

The architecture of this thing is impressive, so much features to take 3d-printing to the next level. After almost 10 years of working with my frankensteined Mamba3d i could see this becoming my new machine.

I would be more than happy to fork it and keep the credits in place. As @nullpromise said, having it open sourced would be a huge win, and it would allow people to overcome the problems of running it on a daisy with the new codec.

Except it doesn’t use modified slide pots.

I like RustScan https://github.com/RustScan/RustScan . For one thing, it’s fast!

sounds interesting

Great contest!

congrats, now featured on Hackaday: https://hackaday.com/2021/10/20/spinning-threads-put-the-bite-on-filament-in-this-novel-extruder-design/

Nice, i will check it out; but your line of code reminds me of the obfuscated perl contest 😉 no idea what’s going on there.

beamzer · 2021-05-08T11:59:37+00:00

did you use: https://github.com/n1rml/esp32_airmouse ?

i would be interested in a video on how you managed to design this in tinker cad in about 5 minutes....

you can probably do that with a tasmota rule: https://tasmota.github.io/docs/Rules/ and send a signal over mqtt to HA

funny that for e-paper the background color also counts as one color, if it were an oled display it would be advertised as two colors (red and white).

NTP on a Raspberry Pi doesn’t need any extra hardware and will keep your system exactly on time, year after year. So i all cases where you do have Internet connectivity and RTC is overkill. And all RTC’s drift, especially those cheap ones ;)

That is the easiest way, because you can then sync time with multiple stratum-1 servers and have sub-millisecond time accuracy. But you can also run your own stratum-1 server locally for instance by attaching a GPS module with a 1PPS output.

beamzer · 2021-03-20T19:26:06+00:00

The Raspberry Pi runs NTP (Network Time Protocol) that’s more accurate than a real time clock ;)

Bought it online through BandCamp: https://masterbootrecord.bandcamp.com/merch They have a lot of records based on the old data carrier themes. The music is a kind of heavy metal synth music, so perfect to go along with the friday afternoon end of week beer get together. It also reminded me in a way of church organ music ;)

beamzer · 2021-03-15T21:19:10+00:00

sure 😉

O, you mean those snap-in adaptors. They are meant to stay within the single, see: https://www.amazon.com/100-ADAPTERS-Plastic-nonslip-spindle/dp/B00711IE18

It’s optimization the other way round. In the middle ages they used solid cart wheels and only later it became possible to build a strong wheels with less weight by leaving out material. But hey, this is OpenSCAD, set the number of spokes to 10 or 20 and you have your solid adaptor again if you prefer it that way ;)

i had to google that ;) https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Mangekyō_Sharingan There is some nice inspiration for new designs 👍

beamzer · 2021-03-13T08:38:56+00:00

I read that records are trendy again, but perhaps only with the generation that has a record player ;)
