Why WebMCP when we could have WebCLI?

Apparently there's already a few projects with the latter name.


https://github.com/mobile-nixos/mobile-nixos

TIL this exists. Here's hoping we see some type of NixOS + Graphene mashup one day.


>The way that it appears to be playing out is that parents were repulsed by perverted and strange worldviews being taught ...

Can you elaborate?

>The system, for once, seems to be working.

Interesting worldview.


>Even if you went to burning man and your souls bonded ...

I'll take: List of places I never want to bond my soul with someone at for one thousand, please.


They get an air conditioned trailer and pay "sherpas" to do their chores, so its basically just a hotel suite

Oh, that's the best place for souls to bond.

Bond to what -- that's the real question

Playa dust. It's certainly permanently bonded to my car.

Baseband vulnerabilities are overhyped, imo. On proper phones (eg. pixels), their access to memory is restricted by IOMMU, ...

That just kicks the can down the road to "Why should we fully trust the IOMMU?"

Granted, it does defend against the vast majority of actors.


... because that's literally the IOMMU's job? Why should we trust the TPM or the CPU or a YubiKey or anything, really? I don't completely trust any of it but to get anything done you have to trust something at some point.

>Why should we trust the TPM or the CPU or a YubiKey or anything, really?

You raise a good point.


Nice. I've been looking at doing something similar, more on the order of running a 1T model with less than half the available VRAM.

One workup indicated it was theoretically possible to modify a piece of SGLang's routing layer to support JIT predict-ahead expert swaps from Gen5 NVMe storage straight into GPU memory.

I'm hoping that proves true. The setup relies on NVIDIA Dynamo, so NIXL primitives are available to support that.

Curious if anyone's tried this already.


That would be nice to see. Actually I was thinking about getting another 3090 and a mobo upgrade since I'm bottlenecked by pcie3 to tryna run glm 4.7 or 5 at q4_k_m, it should be possible.

>... and climb the token usage leaderboard!

Does the #1 spot confer some type of Mad Max-esque villain role?

Like you've contributed to the depletion of clean water so hard that you're put in charge of controlling the supply of Mother's Milk.

Ostensibly also given a custom desert rig with massively oversized tires, and a posse of devotees to ride with, shiny and chrome.


>Any comment that challenges mainstream science ...

Stupid mainstream science.

>... and leftist politics ...

>... nor do they see that their views are political in nature.

You don't say. Personally, I respect comments that prove their own claims.


>This community, in large part, is an exception where many members pride themselves on intellectually challenging material.

That's not the norm. We're not the norm.

I recommend against putting HN on a pedestal. It just leads to disappointment.


It's true -- I do enjoy this community even though it's failed to serve my every thought with the love that I surely deserve!

Odd reply, but OK. For what it's worth I largely agree with everything else you said.

>>The problem, to me, is deeper and is rooted in our education system and work systems that demand compliance over creativity. Algorithms serve what Users engage with, if the Users were to no longer be interested in ragebait, clickbait, focused on thoughtful content -- the algorithms would adapt.

Technically that's true. Thing is, the UI/UX isn't built for long-form content. The platform, interface and algorithm when taken as a whole represent more of a dopamine delivery system heavily biased towards short-form content.

That dynamic in turn ends up being deleterious to cognition to the point it ends up fighting any external factors that which could change user behavior for the better.

In other words the algorithm is part of a larger format, and that format is arguably the real drag. Of course, the algorithm being properly transparent and accountable to its users would certainly help.


I think we're relatively aligned. But you're sharing another chicken & egg problem of whether the algorithm (and engagement with it) is driving the design of the feeds or the other way around.

Arguably, the initial design was a shot in the dark and they're approaching some local maxima with data-driven design trying to improve metrics that we probably all agree aren't the best for our mental health or wellbeing.

Nice chat, apologies if my response was off-putting. It was intended to be self-deprecating humor.


>Arguably, the initial design was a shot in the dark and they're approaching some local maxima with data-driven design trying to improve metrics that we probably all agree aren't the best for our mental health or wellbeing.

Yeah, the way I look at it is product managers and everyone above them in the reporting chain make more money for their respective companies the more they optimize short-form content delivery. Pretty much what you just said.

So, what we're left with is a hyper-optimized content pipeline over the years that's pretty rough to get away from when quite a large number of people are already accustomed and/or addicted. In other words it's really hard to close up Pandora's Box again, but fortunately not impossible.

>Nice chat, apologies if my response was off-putting. It was intended to be self-deprecating humor.

No worries, wasn't sure and didn't want to read into it wrong. Wasn't trying to be snarky on my end. Cheers.


HR: 1187 at Hunterwasser.

Candidate: That's the hotel.

HR: What?

Candidate: Where I live.

HR: Nice place?

Candidate: Yeah, sure. I guess. Is that part of the test?

HR: No. Just warming you up, that's all.


"It's a test - designed to provoke an emotional response. "

I was going to follow this with something like "except the role of analyzing the emotional response is reversed", and then I wanted to expound with an "ooh but.. wait, there's another metaphor here since ..." but thought I've already potentially approached "spoiler alert" territory so I'll just stop there. Those who know the reference I am replying to will know; those who don't, well, don't google any of this or its parent cuz spoiler alert
