 After like 4 days I got tabby api to be a (partially implemented) drop in replacement for ollama so you can use open webui with xl2  models

Almost quit, couldn't tell if I was being regarded or not

like if the venture was even worth it (obvi was regarded) 
 Trying to glue together tabbyapi and open webui. 
 Last night my dad told me he heard btc was down.

Like dude it crashed 20% last month and you didn't notice

 If that were true, would you expect approx equal pay via patreon vs substack?

 Lmao electrical engineers are terrorits 
 vLLM is nutty

Before I was doing naive queuing with text-gen-webui for parsing documents and getting 1 page/sec thinking it was good (way better than human speed)

An 8b on a 3090 handles 60 reqs/second with vLLM
 
 The key behind vLLM is stuffing the GPU as full of prompts as possible. So there's one model and many prompts. As prompts get finished they're refilled with more prompts 
 Old way: 1 page/sec
vLLM 1x3090: 6 page/sec

Realized it wasn't using both cards, now its at 12 pages/sec

Gonna un-voltage-limit the cards next and find diff quant, idk if its even quanted 
 The sweet release when your code finally works as intended

I'd love to feel that someday

Every problem in my code exists BC I put it there 
 Is there a danger of the relay rugging after accepting the stamp? 
 I’m more afraid of human NPC’s than AI.

Much bigger threat. 
 God I wish NPCs refused to comply with malicious prompting 
 OpenAI is the next FTX 
 There's a perspective where it makes sense to keep throwing money at it.

Even 'borrowing' from the future would be the right thing to do.

If the end result is AGI that changes everything, its analogous to inflating away debt. It would make everything so cheap and abundant that the initial cost doesn't matter, and getting there as fast as possible is the right thing to do.

That said, its not where my moneys going 
 Btw I was thinking of the agi+singularity+transcends physics SciFi scenario

 My ai lead-gen web scraper is working nicely.

Minor tweaks like context limiting (currently naive tag-based depth) and a better way to avoid off-site links

 I read “Bitcoin’s Protection under the First Amendment” by Ross Stevens out loud on nostr:n... 
 This is cool and all, but even if it isconstitionallhy protected, its still kind of weak.

All constitution law analysis boils down to "if the gov really wants something, its going to get it"

There's different levels of scrutiny but they basically restate the above. 

At the highest, strict scrutiny, they need "a compelling government interest" + the rules/means are "narrowly tailored" to that interest.

The control over money is the life blood of the government, I don't see anything more compelling from the gov's perspective 
 I had a dream that btc jumped to 75k

Freud what does this mean? 
 Bruh the obesity shit is BC food is cheap and delicious 
 I think it was less true. Actually, no I'd say equally true

maybe its a cumulative thing, like the longer we have access to cheap delicious food the fatter we'll get

Seems like a big vector is cospends

I wonder if anyone's building async siloed transactions 

Like keep coins separate and send gradually to a variety of destination addresses
