It might be preference, when you're running for that long food aversions are common and individual.

I'm not sure I follow the criticism here. Is the issue that a paid product only supports Mac, or an open source project didn't build for multiple OSs?

If it's the first; I've seen tons of Mac only software due to the perception that it's a more lucrative platform. (Users are price tolerant for good products).

If it's the last; scratch your own itch. Since it's open source you can write the softer yourself. I'm not sure if this outlook is the diy zeitgeist I grew up in, or just being old. I'm curious if this is still a common belief.

It's refreshing to see a company follow through on their promised use case. Especially since a lot of devices (home automation bridges, nas, media set tops, etc) are just purpose dedicated computers. I'd love for my next home server to be a laptop upgrade and 3d print away.

What happend to this project? It looks like the Github was deleted.

I always wonder, for rare games like this, do folks copy the firmware/ROM to preserve the software for others?

Interesting to lump in teaching with policing. Even if you are correct, and the folks are the same caliber, the criticisms of both highlight the issues with the institutions. (The main thrust if the critique for police)

At any rate,this comparison is ridiculous and a false equivalencecy that could swap out nurses for teachers and hold your analogy.

Did I miss where the model size is? One shot rankings is nice, but it sounds like they're trying to build a proprietary alternative to other models, rather than focusing on outright competitiveness.

I wonder at the applicability of performance metrics for specialized models. (This is to be a personal assistant ai, right?) I'd think that either; 1. All models perform the same natural language understanding functions, or 2. Context matters a ton. If it's 1, then there's no need for a specialized model. If it's 2 then the relevance of performance metrics diminishes.

This also assumes a level of collaboration and mentoring I've yet to see as routine for Jr engineers. Even in person jr's reach out trusted contacts via chat as opposed to in person. If you've see this signal it might be culturally specific, or during a particular era.

From my experience, the divestment in training and mentoring, stringent job requirements, and lack of job security through arbitrary performance metrics have done more to make folks feel isolated than proximity to bodies.

I was comparing the sound quality to Lenovo's, Thinkpads, and MacBooks. I find my framework sounds muddier and more distorted than all of them. I acknowledge that the Mac might be unfair since it's in a different price and quality range, the Lenovo quality seems doable though.

Are there any plans to enhance the sound quality in future iterations? The 80dB speaker upgrade makes it louder, but the sound quality is still lacking compared to other traditional machines.

I'm in the same boat. Though, I think about it differently; the fact that I can print a case and use the mobo as a headless server is a differentiator for me. I also don't know if it's possible to design an attractive functional chassis that doesn't need iterating.

That being said I'd like to see a recycling program, or some way to reduce the environmental impact from upgrades.
