Most of the can run locally have such a small training set they arnt worth it. Are more like the Markov chains from the subreddit simulator days.
There is one called orca that seems promising that will be released as OSS soon. Its running at comparable numbers to OpenAI 3.5.

Been watching this TV Show called "Falling Skies". It has many parallels to modern day society across the globe. Quite a good watch 👌

@stigatle Happy birthday then! Hope you all had a great day and didn't melt in the heat. (Still 23°C here at the moment at 23:00.)
Fun fact: In traditional Germany you must not congratulate in advance or it will bring ill luck to the person receiving the wishes. It's still a thing these days in general. I haven't found the reasoning behind that popular superstition, though.
@movq Hmm, strange. If it's good software, I'm using it. Realisticly, no matter what in life, there will always be something by somebody who goes against my own principles. But that usually doesn't make the product itself any worse. Btw. how did you discover that? I never go the discussion pages of articles. Do you?
we finally got a little rain yesterday. we are on the edge of drought.

Speaking of men getting owned, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, an expert on authoritarianism who wrote the book _Strongmen_, regularly calls out and degrades wannabe dictators like Elon Musk and it's cathartic to witness.
Also, what a douchebag using the title "Dr." in his twitter handle. As a general rule, a white dude who isn't a medical doctor putting "Dr." in their social media title is a gigantic flashing red flag.
Personally? I'd rather a woman owned Jordan Peterson and got him to shut the fuck up.
for context, Peterson and a bunch of other know-nothing men are reacting on twitter to an article in The Atlantic co-authored by Applebaum, who has quite a bit of expertise on the subject she's writing about. That doesn't seem to matter at all to Peterson, who knows nothing of these subjects but opines about them anyway. She's been tweeting about these reactions and the screencapture I posted previously is one of hers about Peterson.
Jordan Peterson likes to mansplain at women when he knows nothing about the subject. Probably because he thinks women should be property of men instead of free individuals.

Today our daughter has invited her friends over to celebrate her birthday in advance, so we're spending time doing that today :) Going to be a nice day!
@movq I work with 3D and code at work every day, so I very rarely make 3D at home, but for the first time in a looooong time I felt like making something. I like the technical parts of it, setting up simulations, tinker with advanced materials and such things.
@lyse Yeah, same here, been no rain here. But honestly - I do not mind warm weather and such, but I also appreciate a bit colder. We'll have some rain next week I think.

just a fun long run for father's day. walked when i wanted, kept it mainly in zone 2 for HR. Plus the rain, lightning, and thunder for the first half made it relaxing. When the sun rose it did get a bit humid but that is to be expected.

The amazing thing I find by everything I ever try that isn't OpenAI's ChatGPT, is that basically it's all pretty useless at small scale. What do I mean by this? Well, in trying a few different models and tools that you _can_ run locally (not connected to any "cloud" service), the results are pretty underwhelming. For example with Tabby connected to VSCode (locally), you get "okay" results for pretty trivial shit. The moment you try to do anything interesting at all, you either get completely garbage code or copyright headers as suggestions.
I just don't have time or energy to waste hours of a weekend on basically what amounts to statistical probabilistic models trained on complete garbage that generates or predicts in pretty awful ways.
I event spent a few hours today learning about a statistical model used for natural language processing (NLP) called n-gram(s) or ngrams, and ended up with pretty abysmal results. It all depends on the quality of the dataset, and then it can only predict what it has seen.

@movq Both wmi and wmii, too. :-) (But they fall into the category of dwm.) Right, my daily driver dmenu doesn't need patches.

I got myself a new workshop rag. When I just stripped my sweat-soaked shirt after a bike ride I ripped a giant hole into it at the back. It already had some holes in the front that I sewed up in the past.
@lyse Going over the list of their projects, I think mainly dwm and st fall in that category. I also use a few others (dmenu, farbfeld, slock, xssstate, in the past also tabbed) which can be used “as is”. Granted, though, these are also *much* simpler. 😅

@movq Oh, nice! Yeah, maintaining an own fork seems like the way to go with suckless projects.
@movq Ohh, right! I heard sometime that they try to climb very quickly for saftey reasons. If something goes wrong and they're higher up, pilots have more time to troubleshoot and react before they hit the ground. Something like that. There are probably also plenty other factors, too.

@lyse To my surprise, st has builtin zoom. 🤯 I use that very often, too.
But vanilla st lacks other features that I, personally, find essential. For example a scrollback buffer. (That’s a very controversial topic in that community …) What you have to do, is go through this list and pick patches that you like:
https://st.suckless.org/patches/
Of course, they don’t all apply cleanly or are outright buggy sometimes, because anyone can push a patch to that list. There’s not really a strong review process.
At the end of the day, when you’re using st, you’re very likely effectively forking it. I’m not entirely sure yet if I’m up for that. 😅 Why do that anyway? Just for the fun of tinkering with it. 😅 The good thing is that upstream development has slowed down considerably in the last few years. It appears to be much more stable these days. Running my own st fork might actually be doable. We’ll see.

@lyse The planes like to land “against the wind”. When it’s coming from east, they approach from west towards east (and thus fly over me) – and vice versa. When it’s coming from west, they *take off* towards west, which, for some reason, is quieter than landing. 🥴 Maybe they just climb faster than they descend, I don’t know.

@movq The only thing I'm missing in urxvt is the zoom. For unknown reasons, one day (probably after a system update) urxvt on my work computer was suddenly slow as shit. I could literally watch the lines render top to bottom like decades ago. So I had to switch to GNOME terminal (because that was already preinstalled on the distro). It still rendered instantly, just like urxvt used to. Especially when presenting something to team mates, I find it very useful to increase the font size on the fly with ^+. But also every now and then when I get a bit tired it's nice to have a larger font. I reckon st is not capable of doing that either, or is it?
@stigatle I'd really love to have some rain. We had no drop for six weeks so far and to make it even worse, there's also nothing in sight. Yet another sad record once again.
@movq Is there too much wind for the planes to land and take off? In any case, enjoy the lovely sounds of nature (and neighbors :-/).

Once more, I’m toying with st. I actually might switch for real this time. My GTK/VTE terminal does work quite well (as long as I don’t port it from GTK 3 to GTK 4), but dealing with the nitty gritty details in st is just way more interesting. 😅
