I implemented Google's TurboQuant paper (ICLR 2026) in llama.cpp with Metal kernels for Apple Silicon. 4.9× KV cache compression. Working end-to-end on M5 Max with Qwen 3.5 35B MoE and Qwopus v2 27B. Speed needs work (unoptimized shader), compression target met. Repo: github.com/TheTom/turboquant… **Note**: as you'll see from the git when I saw "I" it's in conjunction with claudecode and codex. Just lots of steering and babysitting.

The Moon really was throwing shade on April 8th. 🌝 Even NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) noticed from 223,000 miles away! LRO captured this image of the Moon’s shadow on Earth’s surface during the total solar eclipse last Monday, April 8: go.nasa.gov/3xz3va1

Stop being the one who makes all the effort. Sit back and let the ship sink.

Ladies if - you never quite know exactly where he is - he holds steady in rough waters - he reminds you to read the instructions, but of course still loves you anyway - you know he'll always carry you back home He's not your man, he's a SpaceX droneship

Also worth noting: @UMBCAthletics is dishing out savagery on Twitter, too.
