DeepSeek reduced the cost of large model inference by 93.3% using a compression technique that approximates large matrices by multiplying two smaller matrices, reducing the memory usage and computational requirements. The core idea is to compress the KVCache, which stores intermediate results of each token's computation, by compressing it into a smaller vector and then decomposing it back into the original matrix when needed.
Has anyone tried using a Windows Mobile 6 device (or older) as a daily driver in 2025? Like, I doubt you could use a WM phone in the current year due to 3G being so old (if you do, please tell about it!!), but like, how is it as a productivity machine/PDA?

Hey FediFam. My timeline is thin. I’m looking for #recommendations for people who are into #ttrpg, #videogames, #technology or any cool geek stuff. Feel free to recommend yourself if you're a cool, fun person.

After Samsung paused the rollout [officialaptivi.wordpress.com] of the One UI 7 update due to a bug in which users are unable to unlock their phones after reboot, we had seen something [officialaptivi.wordpress.com] that may have led us to something big.
Starting from April 15th, which is today [x.com], One UI 7 will be rolled out to the Galaxy S24 phones again, starting from Korea and all affected countries to the global release that was supposed to happen on the 14th. Here’s what the post said:
One UI 7 will be pushed to S24 series users today
The timelines will be updated to align with this rollout and to let the users know when their device will be updated to One UI 7. The long wait for One UI 7 had frustrated users due to lack of official communication at the time, and the rollout pause further exacerbated the problem, which was the climax of the story. Now, we’ve come to the resolution and we should be seeing users get the One UI 7 update soon.

Guilty pleasure: I never post on Instagram, but I do follow lots of musicians (mostly drummers) who use it to advertise their gigs, build their "brand," etc. For many of them, it's essential.
Does anyone know of an open-source, non-profit IG alternative where musicians not liking IG could migrate?

Speziell zu "Transhumanismus" als Ideologie der Superreichen und Tech-Kapitalist*innen sei nochmal an die Werke und Vorträge von Max Schnetker zum Thema erinnert:

Transhumanistische Mythologie
Rechte Utopien einer technologischen Erlösung durch künstliche Intelligenz
https://unrast-verlag.de/produkt/transhumanistische-mythologie/ via @UnrastVerlag
Dieser Artikel bietet eine knappe Übersicht über verschiedene Milliardär- und Techbro-Ideologien wie "Effective Altruism", #Transhumanismus und #Longtermismus, die oftmals mit bestimmten Narrativkonstruktionen von "technologischem Fortschritt" und Zukunft arbeiten und mit (Er)Lösungsversprechen aufwarten, aber im Grunde zur Erfüllung von dystopischen Macht- und Profitinteressen der Superreichen dienen sollen.
"Timnit Gebru vermutet hinter dem Vorhaben keine technische, sondern eine politische Agenda. Gemeinsam mit Torres zieht sie eine historische Linie von den amerikanischen Eugenikern über die Transhumanisten zu den führenden Köpfen von OpenAI, in der es nie um die Zukunft und das Wohl der gesamten Menschheit ging, sondern darum, alles Unnütze und Überflüssige auszusortieren."

Telus has just updated their software update schedule [forum.telus.com] for their users in Canada. We are surprised to learn that the Galaxy S24 and the Z Fold/Flip 6 listings have not been taken down. Instead, we saw three new entries that claimed that the following devices would be getting the One UI 7 update in Canada:
If there are no further delays to the One UI 7 release schedule, we could see the Canadian users getting the One UI 7 update in the abovementioned date. Telus, again, warns that the dates are approximate and may change.
[So, with Samsung halting the One UI 7 rollout for the 2024 flagships [officialaptivi.wordpress.com], will the release-critical issues be fixed before April 22nd?
For decades, scientists have attempted to make sense of the complex collection of whistles and clicks dolphins use to communicate. Researchers might make a little headway on that front soon with the help of AI.
