I hate to be the one to burst the Wright brothers bubble today, but the spectacular “flight” we witnessed at Kitty Hawk needs a little context. The Flyer is carrying around 274kg of wood, fabric and wire, plus the weight of the 12-hp engine, propellers and pilot needed to keep it aloft. Based on the published figures, that gives it roughly 12 seconds of maximum flight before it settles back into the sand. In short, it’s a gimmick.

The Markdown thing is getting out of hand
I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that people get famous for writing markdown files, calling them engineering skills and putting them on GitHub 🤣

Terence Tao needs to be given a copy of Antifragile. Birds take off, then some academic branch lectures birds how to fly & takes the credit for it.
This is a slide from Terence Tao's 'Math 2.0' public lecture yesterday evening at Caltech. I am highly confident that, if the cure actually worked, almost any Stage 4 cancer patient would tell you that human comprehension of its mechanism is completely irrelevant to them.

If you’re really with it ur conversational partner can use completely the wrong words or literally make words up nd u will still get what they’re saying bc of context clues & logical progression. And if im lucky enuf2 speak with a rly smart person I barely have to talk at at all

The probability of finding a substantially better “single Spark” daily driver in the next 12 months is high.

wait, there's a config for $20K that runs GLM 5.3 at 70 t/s? send details!
Why do people buy $20k local machines just to run GLM 5.3 at 70 TPS? Bro I just used a random provider on openrouter ran it the entire night and paid $10.

Important note regarding Grok @Bot: Going forward, @SpaceX will use the best back end model for any given task, including Claude Opus 5.5, MidJourney, Suno and other leading APIs. Whatever is most likely to give you the best outcome.

If you get addicted to things easily, good, your problem is aim. Point that same obsession at a skill, your body, or your work for 2 years and people will start calling you "disciplined" instead.

NVIDIA is facing a pincer attack from Apple and China. Apple is advancing from the B2C side. China is advancing from the B2B side, coming for the AI infrastructure. In a pincer attack, you weaken the arms before they close. The Hugging Face acquisition looks like exactly that.

tl;dr - the new Mac is VERY fast across the board for low concurrency, but scales horribly to higher concurrency on both models at this point. Making great headway on the Mac so far, have had clankers on it since the moment I turned it on, benchmarked all inference engines and quants of Qwen 3.8 Flash and GLM 5.3 Flash for a solid baseline and am having them work on improved kernels for both models, already seeing massive improvements. Initial findings confirm oMLX is the best engine right now for this, which is what I’m basing my optimization work around at this point.
May god have mercy on my power bills… the local AI cluster grows 😍 Mac Studio Ultra 256GB joining the fleet, time to get familiar with the Mac side of local AI. Anyone have tips or tricks for getting up to speed quickly?

Choose your harness wisely. The "same model" means very different things, depending on what you strap it into.
