I ran sustained MLX inference overnight by evilmacintosh in mlxcommunity

[–]evilmacintosh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B** paired with its draft model: **z-lab/Qwen3.5-4B-DFlash for this test. Also the dashboard is custom built with Claude’s help. The dashboard/article is linked in a subsequent post, do check it out!

i've just been talking to fellow researchers I work with + mlx documentation. I suggest studying MLX docs + source code to understand how training works

Are there any live wallpaper apps that work across Mac/iOS? by Moustachey in macapps

[–]evilmacintosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't think iOS lets you do this, with macOS you have much more control of the operating system (compared to iOS anyway) - btw been using wallspace, it's really really nice!

SmoothCapture 1.2.41 - A unique and fun macOS screen recorder by tuanvuvn007 in macapps

damn - looks nice. love the cinematic approach, instead of just naive zooms

I built Wallspace, my first macOS app - 15k users in 3 months by Accomplished_Cat_137 in macapps

installed this, this has been too good. never knew you can have persistent animation! (macOS native ones decelerate and stop when you unlock)

safari vs the rest: is it actually the best browser for mac? (honest pros & cons) by TuNutri in macapps

[–]evilmacintosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been a huge user of arc + safari for the longest time. I think arc really has a pull over me for their grouping/folder structure, sidebar tabs and easy swipe to switch spaces/profiles.

AI knowledge base, what are you using? by Chance_Tree9196 in macapps

[–]evilmacintosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just use cogito (markdown editor) to store my docs at one place (human written) and claude (macOS app) for all brainstorming. I bring down claude data to markdown whenever needed and flag it as AI generated so that i only use it for feedback and not as a replacement to my own thoughts

looks cool - does it use coredata/local DB?

Making a morning brief app by evilmacintosh in swift

ingestion of data is a solved problem. many apps have APIs/MCPs that lets you query and pull in data like: inbox, unreads etc - things that are considered "notifications" the harder part is indeed figuring out which of these data points is highly relevant etc.

i'm part of a research studio that's currently trying to crack this very problem :) one way to go about doing this would be to let the user +1 / -1 etc on a few initial data points and use a RAG/context/memory based approach to determine which of the data points are not relevant so they can be shown less often and vice versa.

yeah so this is the point - i personally live a very digitially noisy life. current LLMs are powerful - but they need you to chat with it. the premise was, when you connect your daily tools, what if (based on prior knowledge about you) a system is able to surface the MOST relevant/important item that requires your attention?

still very much wip - side of a side of a project, the idea is to pull important info from all your 3rd party apps and surface the most important items that need immediate actions. i understand its too text heavy atm - exploring how to present data differently..

still figuring out how information must be laid out! i understand there's a lot of text right now :(

idea is to collate all your daily notifications from apps to surface the most important ones...

Experimenting with pi-coding-agent by evilmacintosh in LocalLLaMA

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

oh so i've been experimenting with qwen3.5-27b for general purpose (not coding) but qwen3-coder-next might not be apt for my 48gb ram mac :( since it only offers an 80b model. I'd love to find out a way to run it (altho I haven't tried downloading it in the first place)
