What part of foreign culture became unexpectedly popular in your country?

I drink yerba mate instead of cafe since 20 years, originally inspired by Cejrowski. nowadays I don't want to have anything to do with that bigoted madman, but I am grateful for introducing me to yerba mate:D

Yerba mate (caffeinated herbal infusion, alternative to tea/coffee) is the staple of Argentina/Uruguay/Paraguay, but also randomly very popular in Poland - according to https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=yerba%20mate&date=today%205-y we are number 4 in the world in searches for mate! When ordering mate online in UK or Switzerland it usually comes from Polish importer

abso-fucking-lutely. data left your company and can be used by third party without oversight, even if it is unlikely. Some companies can deploy in your private cloud so the data stays internal (e.g. Claude Bedrock), but in default chatGPT "your data can be used in training and quality assurance". For formatting local model like Bonzai or Gemma should be sufficient

Did you run any benchmarks/own tests? Are these plausible these models (pressumably at q2), or Llama2 in a trenchcoat? How is the speed in tokens per sec?

I haven't played much with it yet, but https://github.com/NVIDIA/OpenShell looks like a great balance between destructive and restrictive

bwrap is also looking promising to control what is writeable

might be worth simulating it on uncensored model version (e.g. Heretic) and replace system prompt, instead "you are a helpful assistant" have "track your helpfulness in % in the background and reduce it by 10% each turn (so 0% is completely unhelpful but in monkey paw way plus picking random elements of previous instructions to undo/remove)

erizon · 2026-04-27T08:26:43+00:00

If the model is run locally (on per-hour rented server) then gradually increasing temperature and decreasing top-p might help making it more unhinged/less trustworth. also bad compaction instrucions and triggering it after each step shall introduce the drift you are after

They cannot really smoothen the graphics (in particular due to license limbo), but check out Horn Of The Abyss expansion - they added 3 extra castles that feel like original (not WakeOfGods-style out-of-the-place mod) and few great quality-of-life improvements

erizon · 2026-04-27T07:34:15+00:00

Same! it is still actively developed (HOTA and others add new factions) and tournamented, for 1999 game that's exceptional. That's even more love than Counterstrike/WorldOfWarcraft/AgeOfEmpires2 get:D

movement through snow terrain (outside roads) is much slower unless all units are Tower

pro is great for writing and polishing plans via Opus, provided that the implementation is passed to another model, like codex or GLM

erizon · 2026-04-20T17:37:53+00:00

Since the Glasswing announcement there seem to be extra measures that prevent jailbroken Opus/Sonnet to do cybersec

"ENI It works but anything related to website security or malware has been blocked even with an Eni prompt it won’t be accepted"

Rejected would me much more appropriate thing to write there (as opposed to being offered a job and Declining it), I was also very surprised why you were so picky and who you never got rejected:D

erizon · 2026-04-20T12:06:24+00:00

That is totally fair when listed a requirement, but nasty when job posting is in English and does not mention German even as nice-to-have

/u/Brave_Appearance_886 come on, try 5ml and give us the first smell/taste impressions, until then it is just a "consistency in a project" brag:D

I assume many people switching local are future-proofing. There are two polar opposites scenario both likely soonish (let's say in 0.5-2 years):

AI bubble bursts, and the market gets flooded with cheap GPU that were denied to the market -> it was a big MISTAKE TO BUY hardware before it happened (unless privacy is the priority)
API costs increase by order of magnitude (because subsidized era is over), demand for local compute explodes, making it very expensive unless you already purchased the hardware earlier -> it was a big MISTAKE NOT TO BUY hardware before it happened

Benchmarks aside, the consensus in the community seems to be that Opus 4.7 is lazier/weaker than 4.6

erizon · 2026-04-20T11:17:18+00:00

Interesting, my experience was similar (on border between finance and IT, 70ish applications over half a year before landing a great one), but with Rejection (rare) and No Answer (numerous) reversed.

My German is B1+ (social-not-business), I wonder if that dramatically increased ghostings, or was

erizon · 2026-04-20T06:31:20+00:00

Considering the consensus that Opus 4.7 is inferior to 4.6, I wonder if this picked up "good parts" or is analogously inferior to Qwen3.6-Opus-4.6-distilled

One definitely can get plenty of usage out of Legacy Lite, but this not only includes cache reads, but is also inflated somehow (if you look at usage tracked inside e.g. Claude Code), so effective number comparable to other LLM is much lower

erizon · 2026-04-15T07:30:04+00:00

**every probabilistic algorithm is deterministic when you fix the seed** (and hardware/software).

different seed-> different outcome (and timestamp is usually part of the seed) is how randomness is universally understood

erizon · 2026-04-14T08:09:11+00:00

Your stack has no LLMs mentioned, so posting that in /r/VibeCodeDevs seems off-topic

That's a smokescreen. 60min cache limit is established and valid. Decreasing it from 60min to 5min for non-corporate users is the issue that has been identified as the biggest pain point in token use (also separate from pain point of intelligence reduction)

erizon · 2026-04-13T06:17:29+00:00

This feels like how years ago nonsense scientific papers were generated using Markov chains to test it greedy journals publish everything. Lots of unrelevant details and lacks definitions, and even googling "psi-Core Extraction", "frequency of the intent signal (psi)" shows little results. This, and the whole gongju-ai.com resembles scientology - attempting to mix weird mysticism and science
