At first I was like "hahaha" but then I looked it up and yes: https://www.floridabeef.org/raising-beef/cattle-in-florida

I didn't realize the market was so fragile and needed conservatives to control it so closely. You learn something new every day!

I don't exactly see the point of laws like this. Reeks of fear more than anything. What are they afraid of, that the policy will work and become popular?

Yeah, it's not that I like this state of affairs, but right now the vendor lock-in is so one-sided that it's hard to say there's a viable alternative to CUDA. I hope that changes one day.

The completely different software stack is a killer. It's not that you can't find versions of a model to run, but almost everything that hits the GPU for compute is going to be targeting CUDA, not RocM. From a compatibility standpoint alone this killed AMD for me. I just do not want to spend my time fighting the stack to get these models running.

The Lifeline program is still available. The way they explain it is confusing, but the "discount" covers the complete cost of service for most Lifeline providers, so it works out to free. You just need to be receiving any federal public assistance -- Medicaid, food stamps, TANF, anything.

ACP was more of a broadband program with phone service attached, Lifeline is more of a phone program with some data attached. If you happen to have an unlocked phone, many lifeline carriers support bringing your own device to some extent.

Bet a killer feature for this would be pluggable recommendation algorithms.

EDIT; Clarity

the longer the stove's in use the more burned grease droplets and soot will soak into the boards around it. Horrible idea.

And... at least as of posting, lmsys has taken gpt2-chatbot down. Whatever it was, we'll have to wait to find out.

Supremely interesting model though, can't wait to try it out again (one day, maybe)

It's utterly disturbing how easy it is to get into so many networks and devices just by looking up their default password or plugging in the default password on the side of the box. Absolutely the first thing you need to change on a new device if it comes with a preset PW.

It never went away.
