Self hoating an LLM for research
  • I'd recommend trying LM Studio (https://lmstudio.ai/). You can use it to run language models locally. It has a pretty nice UI and it's fairly easy to use.

    I will say, though, that it sounds like you want to feed perhaps a large number of tokens into the model, which will require a model made for a large context length and may require a pretty beefy machine.

  • THE HEART PART 6 - DRAKE (Kendrick Diss)
  • Nearly this entire thing is a miss.

    • He says the people who leaked the daughter thing are clowns, then proceeds to tell us he's so smart that he and his people leaked it. So Drake called himself a clown.
    • A good chunk of the song is based on a misunderstanding of Kendrick's Mother I Sober. Kendrick didn't say he was molested, he said that his mother asked him if he was and she didn't believe him when he told her no, because she was molested. Honestly, this makes Drake out to have no listening/reading comprehension and it makes him seem like he's scrubbing quickly through Kendrick's tracks trying to find ammo. It makes that whole chunk of the song fall flat.
    • Kendrick never said any names or anything regarding the pedophile allegations, yet here's Drake specifically bringing up Millie Bobby Brown and Bella Harris. The thing is when you put it all together there's a lot of evidence out there that's already known that lends credibility to Drake being a pedophile. Drake was texting Millie Bobby Brown when she was 14. He was hanging around Bella Harris when she was 17. He groped and kissed that one girl on stage and she was 17. You even have Tweets from Drake talking about (not an exact quote) "If amazing were underage I'd be in jail because I'm fucking amazing." What a weird thing to say. There's too much to mention here.
    • Drake says he planted the daughter stuff. Okay, let's see the receipts. He made a whole little video of him destroying the good kid, maad city van (wrong make and model, if I'm not mistaken) but there's no video of you supposedly cooking up this master plan to plant evidence? No screenshots of DMs? Nothing? Mighty convenient....
    • Let's say the daughter stuff is false. That removes one verse out of the four tracks that Kendrick has put out. All the rest of the tracks are still totally relevant.
    • Whitney never followed Kendrick on social media. Talking about who is or isn't following you on social media is such a high school way of thinking about relationships. It just plays into everything Kendrick has been saying about Drake not being a man, about being a 7 year old.
    • Drake still hasn't denied running a sex trafficking ring.
    • The play on music chords was dumb. Kendrick was saying something that actually hit with his. Plus a B-sharp isn't a thing.

    This track is a huge miss, for me. Take the L, Drake.

  • meet the grahams - YouTube
  • Never seen anything like this before. Kendrick was ready, knew what was coming.

    The whole battle is more than just disses, it's a psychological tear down of Drake. No amount of IG posts and jokes can put Drake on an equal footing.

  • To those with 2+ monitors on your machine: What's your use case, and how much does it actually boost your productivity?
  • Yeah, like I said, I could absolutely use spaces and I have used spaces heavily in the past. Having three monitors is certainly a nice-to-have and personally I believe having everything up at once is superior to using spaces.

    I sit a good 3.5 feet from my displays, so it's pretty easy for me to look at my side displays without turning my head. Keep in mind my side displays are vertical. I probably would have to turn my head if they were in a horizontal orientation.

    Anyway, it's all about what you prefer, can afford, etc. For me, this is my ideal setup.

  • To those with 2+ monitors on your machine: What's your use case, and how much does it actually boost your productivity?
  • Software engineer. I use three monitors. I primarily use macOS, if anyone's curious.

    Main monitor is a 42" 4K LG C3 OLED, two side monitors are 34" 4K LG IPS displays in vertical orientation.

    For work, I keep my IDE and browser on my main monitor and I use it for most other applications that I might use, but usually just my IDE and browser.

    Left monitor is used primarily to display my Jira board and tickets, which takes up the bottom 2/3 of the screen. I use Firefox's video pop out feature to place YouTube or other videos in the top 1/3 so I can watch them while I work, if I want.

    Right monitor is used primarily for Slack and Spotify. Slack takes up the bottom half. Spotify takes up the top half, and I often listen when I'm not watching videos.

    Could I do all of this with spaces? Of course. Absolutely. I've had a one monitor setup, two monitor setup, and now a three monitor setup. Honestly, I really just like that I don't have to switch spaces all the time. I can reference my Jira tickets while I work and chat with people all at the same time without having to switch spaces around any time I want to see certain details about something in a ticket or something someone said.

    I also play games (separate PC) and stream, so the three monitors is useful for that, as well. I have the game up on my main monitor, and I use the side monitors to show my Twitch chat/bot, OBS, Discord, etc.

  • What's a piece of classical music that everyone knows but most people don't know they know?
  • I was looking for someone to mention this. It’s used so often in movies and television. I’m not surprised that people are saying they’ve never heard it. It’s always just some background music played in a scene, it’s never the focal point.

  • At Meta, Millions of Underage Users Were an ‘Open Secret,’ States Say
  • This may have changed recently, but I just bought the Quest 3 and wasn’t forced to create a Facebook account. I did have to create a Meta account, though. As far as I can tell, it’s fairly separate from Facebook and Instagram and I have no intentions of linking it to either of those types of accounts.

  • Anyone have good memories of (or still belong to) a gaming clan or guild?
  • I’m in my 30’s and I’ve gotten into clans within the past couple of years or so. I started playing games that none of the rest of my friends played, like Hell Let Loose and Squad. Joining a clan for those two games was huge because it gave me a ton of people to play with at pretty much any time of day. For these types of games, at least, clans are still a pretty big thing. All of the clans that I’ve seen use Discord these days.

    My Hell Let Loose clan has over 1,000 members and my Squad clan has even more - not entirely sure how many. What’s really interesting is that I know and have played with a ton of those members. Made lots of good memories, too.

    Anyway, in my experience clans are totally still a thing. You should seek some out! Maybe you’ll find a good group that you vibe with.
