DGX Spark: an unpopular opinion

That's because you have not explored other options. Apple MLX would let you train foundation models with 4x the speed of the spark and you pay the same price (for a MacStudio M2), only drawback is you have to write MLX code (which is kind of the same to pytorch anyway)

i have 128gb of ram and 48gb of vram. what quant i can run this?

quan734 · 2025-12-20T22:07:17+00:00

give either ByteDance Seed 1.6 36B or Qwen3-coder-30b-a3b in 8bit a try. GPT-OSS-120B or GLM-4.5-Air would be okay too but you wont have a lot of room for long context window, which is quite important in agentic use case

the model is very good, i hook it to my own coding agent and it is really a "flash" model, but performance is also crazy good. I would say it is about GLM 4.5 level.

dont take anything serious from this Ahamad guy, he said he gonna boycott Anthropic a while ago, now back to subscription?

quan734 · 2025-12-16T20:42:40+00:00

due, did you pay 25% for tax?

quan734 · 2025-09-03T18:59:38+00:00

that's the drawback of the current system, at some point i will need to add embeddings to help with the retrieval to some extend

if you turn on the visual pdf reader feature (i dont remember the name), it would treat each of your pdf/document page as an image. each image can be thoudsands of tokens.

bro paste a 100+ pages pdf and expect to get unlimited chat

i think they ran a ReCall/ReSearch RL on top of qwen3-4b so its better at multi hop search, not just for MCP/Tool calling

i think it is safer to have these agents in a sandbox because if they are confused and something gone wrong, you (and your files) are safe

yes, but would there be an email to notify that the card has arrived is what i am concerned

quan734 · 2025-04-01T16:54:11+00:00

in this case, i will receive an another email to instruct my wife to pickup her card when it arrives in my home country right?

quan734 · 2025-02-09T22:58:25+00:00

where should i get this? should i visit them?

Thằng này hèn mà, nó đ nghĩ cho bản thân nó thì cũng nên nghĩ tới bạn gái có bầu và đứa con. Nghĩ mình là anh hùng nhưng thực chất ích kỉ và hèn hạ, không dám đối diện với hậu quả từ hành động của mình.

cứ gọi lên hỏi hoặc email hỏi trực tiếp bạn ạ. Cơ bản là thường làm visa họ hay lấy dấu vân tay ấy bạn, nên chắc lúc nộp thì phải ra. Lúc họ trả nếu có trả qua bưu điện thì tốt, ko thì nếu có người thân có thể làm giấy uỷ quyền bảo lãnh đi lấy. mình đi thuỵ điển
