Looking to run models locally after this weekend's fable?

A reminder that `llama.cpp` can be one-lined installed from conda-forge for macOS (supporting Apple Metal), Linux and Windows (both supporting CUDA and Vulkan).

github.com/ggml-org/llama…

another 5 days later, zml/llmd runs fully on Metal, serving 8 simultaneous requests at full bf16

zml/llmd is our LLM serving software that all the modern niceties (continuous batching etc..)

ps: "full bf16", what a time to be alive

Très triste d’apprendre la mort de Sylvain Amic, historien de l’art, qui dirigeait depuis un an @MuseeOrsay. Nous avions travaillé ensemble à la défense des métiers d’art et à leur mise en valeur dans les territoires ruraux.

La Culture perd un grand serviteur, moi un ami.

whisper.cpp is coming to ffmpeg

Another deep dive in the technology behind Conda package managers: file linking! Did you know that there are symlinks, hardlinks and reflinks? Reflinks are the best – copy on write is space efficient and isolates the cache.

The original SQL paper (1974) really stands the test of time

CPUs were 20,000,000,000x more expensive per flop in 1974!

SQL is 50 years old: older than the Internet, hard disks, Linux, x86, and CMOS RAM;
yet SQL remains in service to people today, for the exact same use cases
