I think they just explained how corrupt the prior mayor was, this coupled with the disclosure by Mamdani about every prior mayor hiding air safety data after 9/11 paint a damning picture of the priorities of prior NYC mayors in recent memory.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. With the behaviors we know OpenAI engages in the accusations are wholly believable.

This is a take... With both the internet and industrial control infrastructure any failure modes were studied, documented, and corrected.

The incompetence/negligence argument about OpenAI is completely valid given their failure to demonstrate the basic capabilities needed to develop advanced AI without major preventable externalties.

I run 3bit GLM5.2 and full precision Qwen3.6-27B. GLM is much much closer to frontier models in it's breadth and ability to plan. If you just need to implement Python code from an existing plan Qwen is your choice but it has problem succeeding with more complex tasks that GLM5.2 does not.

As I type this my local GLM5.2 is troubleshooting bugs that Qwen would not be able to handle.

On a model of this size quantization has much less impact on quality of output. I'm running a 3bit version and find it comparable to sonnet, almost opus.

No. Unsloth has CPU offloading. It'll be slow but it'll work even with SSD offloading.

I have a friend who may be dying. It's not cancer but equally dangerous. They caught it early but they're powerless to do anything. We're just watching, waiting, and hoping.

vLLM supports "banning" certain tokens but I don't know if it can dynamically reduce them.

To my knowledge you can also "ban" with llama.cpp but it is passed in the API call rather than to the server at initialization.

It's remarkable how capable GLM 5.1 is, what's amazing is the recent development of Qwen 3.6 27B being close in real world performance.

Can you back that up with.... you know... evidence? "regulation bad" tends to be a political talking point more than a valid argument when you're this vague.

Edited: to add, this speech talks a lot about the reduction in research funding from the US government which arguably has nothing to do with the regulatory environment.

This is a weird take. I get the desire to house people but someone choosing to rent rather than sell a home they own is not the crux of the issue. When there are corporations keeping swaths of housing empty to raise rent rates the real issue is market manipulation not small participants.

Thank you for this comment, there is no way I could eloquently explain my read on the comment you're replying to the way you did.

7x fewer major and minor collisions!!!!*

* Compared to the estimated U.S. average.

They have a huge store of data on accidents in teslas per mile driven. Why don't they compare their actual data on accidents? Well, they would, but it probably is worse with FSD.

I wonder if that display is because they would give them out not why.
