๐Ÿ”ฅ Explore this must-read post from Hacker News ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ“‚ **Category**: ๐Ÿ“Œ **What Youโ€™ll Learn**: TL;DR โ€” Kimi K3 (2.8T-parameter MoE, 1.45 TB of expert weights) running on one M5 Max MacBook Pro with 128 GB, experts streamed from four SSDs. 1.00 tok/s steady decode over a 512-token answer; 1.13 over 128; 0.96 on the public 17-token prompt (upstream reported 0.68). The honest limit: a 512-token prompt takes ~6.3 minutes to its first token. Cause found (prefill re-reads each layer's experts 8ร—), fix planned, not built.

How to build a f**king printer ยท Nishant Joshi

๐Ÿš€ Read this trending post from Hacker News ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ“‚ **Category**: ๐Ÿ“Œ **What Youโ€™ll Learn**: I was planning to build an e-ink display when I came across the Xteink X3 online. Somewhere in the fine print, it said the thing was fully programmable. I was sold. When it arrived, I liked how flat it was. It felt solid in my hand. I started adding things to the CrossPoint firmware: a different boot animation, dice I could roll by shaking the reader, a LinkedIn QR code for SF networking events. But getting stuff onto it was tedious. I had to join…

A Topological Picture Book, Rendered

Drag to turn the model freely (shift-drag to roll it); scroll to approach. Sources & method The drawing is made of strokes, not pixels. Silhouettes are the zero set of nยทv on the mesh (found with interpolated normals, so they chain into smooth curves), boundaries and the double curve of an immersion are added as further chains, and all of them are drawn as tapered ribbons with a broad-nib pen model, weight that grows on…

You have a basic Bevy application running. Now you want to spawn your character in your Bevy app. Easy enough, there's probably a function for that. You look up the basic Animated Mesh example on Bevy's website... and it quickly becomes apparent that things are not as simple as you've hoped. There's a lot of setting things up, animation-related types whose exact purpose is not obvious... You…

Introducing Mercury 2.5 โ€“ Inception

๐Ÿš€ Read this must-read post from Hacker News ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ“‚ **Category**: ๐Ÿ“Œ **What Youโ€™ll Learn**: Today, weโ€™re releasing Mercury 2.5, our most capable production model yet. It is a significant step up in quality over Mercury 2, with the same low-latency, low-cost serving profile. Since Mercury 2โ€™s launch, thousands of developers have built with it, dozens of enterprises have put it into production, and usage has grown over an order of magnitude. It now serves latency-sensitive workloads across search, voice, and coding products.Those workloads gave us a clearer signal than benchmarks alone. We used customer feedback and production failure cases…

Why Function Arguments Are Not Function Colors

Why Function Arguments Are Not Function Colors

๐Ÿ”ฅ Check out this trending post from Hacker News ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ“‚ **Category**: ๐Ÿ’ก **What Youโ€™ll Learn**: In several debates online about function colors over the years, people have argued the apparently reasonable position that function arguments can constitute colors as well. For instance, in Go, there is a context.Context value, which manages timeouts, cancellation, and a small amount of data that can be threaded through various functions. It is, by design, intended to be something passed through functions even if the receiver doesnโ€™t use it directly but only passes it along. Generally, once one function starts using a context, you…
