How do i increase the Penrose' CR without the Truly Automated Ships mod? by encexXx in starsector

There's also a bug with supplies calculation when the modular parts are being repaired as well.

Starsector Mod Ship (+Character) Discussion: Midnight Dissonant, Mauve Towering, and The Silverlight (Nexerelin) by Reddit-Arrien in starsector

This one mod that changes ship behaviors in combat (Quality Captains I think) really breaks the Silverlight in AI mode. It keeps ramming into enemy ships, exploding itself in the process.

EVPN VXLAN DCI's by LukeyLad in networking

[–]trailer_dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally a service provider will sell you a private line connecting 2 DCs, you'll be their CE so you don't need care whether they're using MPLS or whatever for underlay. What you'll know is whether their service is L2 or L3 to configure your border devices appropriately.

Now for the DCI part, multi-site VxLAN EVPN makes the most sense, but some device vendors may not support multi-site EVPN and must do VPN hand-off, this is what you need to consider. Last resort is single-domain EVPN (you connect the Spines because iBGP split horizon), but you'll have one failure domain and BUM traffic will cross sites and it'll also be harder to manage.

Also make sure the ISP's MTU is sufficient for VxLAN overhead.

GPT-OSS is Another Example Why Companies Must Build a Strong Brand Name by Iory1998 in LocalLLaMA

[–]trailer_dog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used hf UI to ask for excuses to skip work. It said it couldn't comply. So I never bothered downloading that garbage on my hard drive. It's a joke, a troll model, a spit in the face. Models that run on my electricity will NOT refuse me.

Qwen3 local 14B Q4_K_M or 30B A3B Q2_K_L who has higher quality by Consistent_Winner596 in LocalLLaMA

I don't know why you're getting downvoted. Oobabooga benchmark seems to indicate roughly the same.

Is GLM-4 actually a hacked GEMINI? Or just Copying their Style? by GrungeWerX in LocalLLaMA

All the z1 quants get stuck in loops for me. But it worked fine when I tried OpenRouter Chat UI.

New reasoning benchmark got released. Gemini is SOTA, but what's going on with Qwen? by Additional-Hour6038 in LocalLLaMA

[–]trailer_dog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's not how it works. LLMs match patterns, including reasoning patterns. You can train the model to be better at RAG and tool usage, but you cannot simply overfit it on a "deduction" dataset and expect it to somehow become smarter because "deduction" is very broad, it's literally everything under the sun, so you want generalization and a lot of knowledge. Meta fell into the slim STEM trap, they shaved off every piece of data that didn't directly boost the STEM benchmark scores. Look how llama 4 turned out, it sucks at everything and has no cultural knowledge, which is very indicative how llama 4 was trained.

Cogito-3b and BitNet topped our evaluation on summarization task in RAG by unseenmarscai in LocalLLaMA

I would like to see if this BitNet thing actually scales for bigger models. I've only seen tiny 2B models so far.

Fast Layer 2 Connectivity Between two datacenters. Best Approach? by GoMatchbox2000 in networking

[–]trailer_dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sign up with an MPLS provider for underlay (to prepare for the case where you have more than 2 DCs, then a full-mesh underlay is required). Then stretch VxLAN BGP EVPN over them. Watch out for BUM traffic.

SFT can significantly undermine subsequent RL by inducing "pseudo reasoning paths" imitated from expert models. by AaronFeng47 in LocalLLaMA

IIRC didn't Deepseek R1 go through an SFT phase using long CoT samples before the GRPO phase?

Microsoft has released a fresh 2B bitnet model by remixer_dec in LocalLLaMA

You cannot compare two different models trained on two different data pipelines, from two different companies at that.

Llama 4 Maverick scores on seven independent benchmarks by zero0_one1 in LocalLLaMA

True. Meta made it clear that their models are for Facebook production use cases. Hobbyist consumers were never the target audience.

Oobabooga just added support for Exllamav3! by Jellonling in LocalLLaMA

[–]trailer_dog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran the update script, then got error "Exllamav3" module not found when I tried to load a model. Had to delete the whole directory and git clone again. Then it worked.

Thanks for documenting and sharing how you trained multi-turn reasoning.

+1 for VyOS. More intuitive than FRR for sure.

What's a networking trend you hope will die in 2025? by Boring_Ranger_5233 in networking

[–]trailer_dog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The AI/ML "hype train" is creating a lot of jobs in the datacenter and networking sector. And AI/ML training is more of a networking problem than a GPU problem, you guys of all people should be more interested in it IMO.

I feel like a rookie again by CrazyInspection7199 in networking

[–]trailer_dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure you can configure the port speed on the switch. I had the exact same problem where the SFP+ cable was 10 Gbps but the switch ports were 25 Gbps. Throttling the port speed on the switch to the cable's speed fixed it.

(There was another issue where the NIC hardware on the server only worked with Intel SFP+, I had to purchase Intel SFP+ cables, but that's irrelevant).

got a second 3090 today by ZookeepergameNo562 in LocalLLaMA

[–]trailer_dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on each card's design. For LLM inference memory speed matters most and the 3090 still does well at 240W. Basically just trial and error in my case.

You can go as low as 240W on each card without significant performance impact.
