For running llms _locally_ on Android, there's "pocketpal" (~7tok/s on a pixel 7 pro for some quant of llama 3.2 3B).

(Not sure if it uses ollama though)


The state space of chess is so huge that even a giant training set would be a _very_ sparse sample of the stockfish-computed value function.

So the network still needs to do some impressive generalization in order to „interpolate“ between those samples.

I think so, anyway (didn‘t read the paper but worked on alphazero-like algorithms for a few years)


For comparison, car liability insurance in germany typically has a coverage limit of 50 or 100M € (not sure about potential caps per victim though). There is also a legal minimum of 7.5M.


I believe that for a species, longer generations means slower evolutionary adaptation to environmental changes.

(at least for our bodies, our hardware. Ideas/technology can iterate somewhat independently.) (longer lifespan and short generations would probably have caused resource shortages at various points in the past)


Some providers promise to build new renewable capacity that matches the consumption of their customers (not sure about the timeframe). I'm not aware of any provider that builds the required storage too, though


A v2 feature might be e2e encryption, seems like that should be feasible


Milk with a multi-month shelf live can't be fresh, I believe. The fresh (mildly processed) milk I know turns bad within about a week, the "extended shelf life" stuff that was introduced a couple of years ago (in Germany) lasts for a few weeks. There is also "H Milch" which tastes very differend and can be stored at room temperature for several months.


Well, it can be fresh if you buy it soon after production, obviously. I assume the cow-to-cereal bowl pipeline is just a lot shorter for the cardboard cartons for whatever reason. Makes no sense, but the date discrepancy has existed for years.


how would authentication work when you/someone does pick up the phone?


Sadly, it breaks down. You ask someone if they are who they are, and that's about all you can do. Someone can lie. Has it ever happened? Probably, but I've never heard of it, and my legal department is pretty good about keeping up on these things. But the way the law is written, asking the question absolves the caller of legal liability.

It's not IT-grade authentication, but for wetware it works.


how would solar result in areas beeing uninhabitable for decades (or much longer?) after we stopped using them?


the article doesn't seem to consider cost of hyperparameter optimization prior to the final training...
