Well, I ran a couple of experiments a couple years ago against a 10.7b SOLAR-based language model and MUDs. What I found is that dumping one into a MUD that had been built specifically for humans resulted in a lot of…
I've never used such a thing. If the intent is to get the LLM to not perform reasoning before it answers, most of the APIs have a toggle that lets you minimize or stop thinking. I'd really like to understand why you'd…
Hermes Agent is really decent. Don't rethink your entire company, offer your customers choice instead. Some may prefer OpenClaw and others might be better served with Hermes Agent or even a third type. If you can find…
I'd started using DOS-based machines in the 80s, and ended up with a copy of WordStar 3.3. I used it so much as a kid that I still have the WordStar keybindings stuck in my muscle memory. There's one CLI text editor…
Brave's "Leo" AI is configurable enough to specify local endpoints for processing, instead of going wherever they want it to go. I've set it up to use my own systems, and it works just fine like that. If you have a…
I've got 256GB of RAM on a Mac Studio M3 Ultra. Other posters are right: The M3 Ultra's prefill is super slow with really large models, 3-5 minutes while it digests the new additions to its context before it continues.…
My google-fu is failing me at the moment to cite sources, but here's an example ~/.config/crush/crush.json file (based on my own) showing the options to remove telemetry and provider auto updates, and the connection…
Try charmbracelet's crush, found here: https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush Crush is pretty new, but getting better all the time. It's written in Go, so no node hijinks to get it working. It works fine with my ollama…
I think this is fun! I ended up with 92/102, because a few were non-obvious. If I had a critique it's that the AI entries were repeated on multiple occasions, making the decision between them trivial. If you can find…
I'm going to buck trends and get my hands dirty -- The oil needs changed and the O2 sensor needs replaced on an old (1992) Ford Ranger pickup truck I recently acquired. Bought it for a song, and it's definitely not a…
