Yes! Trying to make something that other people want is a good way to take the joy out of a project, and it dulls the uniqueness that could the result something truly special.

I hate this too. You can turn it off. In Settings, go to System->Multitasking and change "Show tabs from apps when snapping or pressing Alt+Tab" to "Don't show tabs."

Or better yet, Settings > Apps > Default apps > select a different browser

Parent isn't saying that bespoke scripts are bad, just that it's not worth their time to write them. The value of the bot is that it can do that for you.

I don't think there's so much naivety. People can be aware of the the plan and still be frustrated and disappointed when it happens.

I’m waiting for the grand reversal where Anthropic abuses the Qwen API to train the next Haiku.

For a brief moment there were a lot of comments about how Chinese tech companies are our saviors in the age of AI because they were releasing their models. It was an edgy contrarian take that was getting a lot of traction, mostly from commenters who were unfamiliar with Alibaba and thought it was the anti-Big-tech

My explanation is simpler and does not rely on assuming that anyone is an idiot. Or an edgy contrarian.

I'm not frustrated or disappointed, we have lots of models from Qwen already. We haven't really lost anything. And plenty of players only release "smaller" models anyway, so it's hardly unprecedented.


No it was someone playing a street car drifting game idk which. They were doing car reviews of people’s designs


ktransformers can do dynamic placement of experts and could presumably produce such a histogram, though currently its activation statistics are just a ".pt" file. https://github.com/kvcache-ai/ktransformers/blob/main/doc/en...

FWIW I never got it to work and did not dig into it much.


Funny, I saw the news about the new game just before I saw this article. I didn't know it was a reboot at all, I'd never heard of the originals. It looks cool.

SOCAMM2 could work. Nvidia's using it on the Vera Rubin boards, as seen here: https://www.pchardwarepro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/que...


It is much faster, yeah. llama.cpp supports swapping between system memory and GPU, but it’s recommended that you don’t use that feature because it’s rarely the right call vs using the CPU to do inference on the model parts in system CPU memory.

Edit: the settings is "GGML_CUDA_ENABLE_UNIFIED_MEMORY=1"... useful if you have unified memory, very slow if you do not.
