I hear this word as the “it is in its nature” version of the word.

Obviously needs downloading eventually :).

It seems like this tool saves on both disk space and RAM, then. Classic trade off: speed vs space.

I’m still slightly confused on what this adds.

Let’s say I wanted to run a full size open weight model. I have a 128GB m3 max laptop.

Does this basically load layers in and out on demand? So I still have to download the full model to disk, but the RAM requirements go way down? The readme calls out that one still needs to connect HuggingFace, which leads me to believe that maybe you don’t even need to download the full model?

Unwanted sound! Not cool.

Got it, that helps me understand.

I am curious how the variety of faith based practices could be handled…I’m super on board with providing a universal spiritual/mental health space regardless of your affiliation. That gets very weird when you start having to account for the variety of schedules and practices.

I am pretty sure I disagree on religious orgs having no more rights than a business. I think that seriously under accounts for the degree of identity that folks get from their religious affiliations and the types of activities businesses and religious groups tend to do.

A business and religious group are pretty fundamentally different…I’d have to reflect a lot longer and harder to come up with a more stable and coherent stance on that. I can definitely think of valid arguments on either side.

Uh, honest question: why would you put atheist on a list of religions?

Like…leave the religion off the dog tag and that communicates enough right? What’s there to recognize?

I’m super not trying to be antagonistic. I’m trying to understand why an atheist would be upset by this.

Most of our ideas are silly puns about the character names ;).

Switched to this knot a few years back for any day when we're walking/hiking a lot. I also tie my children's shoes this way if they're having a struggling day.

If anyone's playing with this you may find that after you tie the loops together they're sitting funny; you basically have to swap the sides the loops sit on!

Along similar lines: many of your favorite authors, musicians, and creators have public email addresses and seem to love getting emails. I’ve started writing notes with my kids to their favorite authors with ideas and always a thank you note.

I’ve gotten replies from authors on NYT best sellers lists, musicians, and more.

People like to be appreciated.

I always wanted superpowers, but I never dreamed it'd be like this.

Subjective air quality is SO much better than it was in the early nineties though...

I definitely blame my difficulties with respiratory illnesses on living there as a kid...
