I bought a 28-200 for travel and it's not perfect but I basically never take it off now. I wish it was slightly wider at the wide end but it makes the whole thing feel like an (extremely heavy and bulky) point-and-shoot. I really like the versatility.

My friend group once tried to convince our American friend that Australians pronounce the L in "salmon" and it stuck. It's how we all say it now.

Sal-mon.

Also TIL you can run a model across multiple Mac minis: blog.exolabs.net/day-2

If you can live with 64GB, a Mac mini with M4 Pro/1TB/10GbE is ony $2299. That's surely cheaper than 2x 3090s?

From a quick google, looks like it gets about 10 tokens/s on Llama3.3 70b. Any idea what you're expecting from your 3090s?

I can now run a GPT-4 class model on my laptop Metaโ€™s new Llama 3.3 70B is a genuinely GPT-4 class Large Language Model that runs on my laptop. Just 20 months ago I was amazed to see something that felt โ€ฆ

May not be cheaper but a 64gb MacBook Pro should do it: simonwillison.net/2024/Dec/9/l... (no idea what the performance will be like compared to two 3090s)

Also Apple make a 128gb M4 Max, which I now want a lot.

After a few minutes it was obvious that this wasn't a bold stylistic choice. Like the time we watched 5 minutes of a game of thrones episode with only the music track working before we realised Turns out it makes a lot more sense if you start from the start/have the narration track enabled.

My Chromecast suggested some show on Prime at the top of the home screen, so I clicked "watch now". It started playing episode 10 instead of episode 1.

I thought "ooh this is a bold start to a show. They haven't introduced any characters, but clearly these two guys are gearing up for something"

Anyone know of an "AI agent" platform that can email someone for a response then push-notify me when they reply? And maintain context throughout it all?

This feels like it ought to exist already but I haven't been watching the space closely for long so I haven't seen it done.

Is there a good video host for short stuff like this that's natively supported by Bluesky? Feels like someone ought to have built one by now ๐Ÿค”

GitHub - geelen/workers-mcp-server: Talk to a Cloudflare Worker from Claude Desktop! Talk to a Cloudflare Worker from Claude Desktop! Contribute to geelen/workers-mcp-server development by creating an account on GitHub.

Been working on making it possible to connect Claude Desktop to a Cloudflare Worker using the new MCP spec, and it works!

You write some functions in a Worker, document them with JSDoc, and then they show up in Claude for you to use. It's kinda magical.

Just implemented and deployed a complete GitHub oauth login flow /entirely on my phone/ using Claude and Cloudflare Workers

Man, being able to chat with my Cloudflare account is next level. ๐Ÿคฏ

I just asked Claude to "give me a list of all users stored in the prod D1 database" and, well, that's exactly what it did. The same goes for interacting with R2, even creating objects and deleting everything after testing. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
