7B means 7 million right, so 6 is fine? 👀

My nightmare activity for the week can be boiled down to 'training a doomed LLM to prove a point', so that will be fun.

So turns out I don't have object permanence because my IDE updated sometime in the last week, reset all my window locations, and now I've forgotten python.

New enhancement, support for dueling others. Very much a work in progress, but now offers a way to both gain exp and gold. Example found in the comments below from @ripperoni.com

My friends, the story of Donald J Trump and his weird decades-long obsession with sharks is stranger than you know. I, your friendly neighborhood shark scientist and science journalist, made an annotated timeline. www.southernfriedscience.com/donald-trump...

Ok, starter packs are SERIOUSLY cool. I am so happy with this feature! Thank you, @bsky.app! Here's my v1 Astronomy starter pack: go.bsky.app/KfuFR5s (N.B: when I'm back from holiday I'll make the list of included accounts more equitable, for now it's just people who I can remember post a lot)

hopefully nobody will be using OAuth in any real capacity with any PDS until we do an additional release with code updates as well as documentation! it is very experimental right now, as in for the dev team to be able to test if it works at all. we're only mentioning it b/c folks will splunk and see

I wonder what a permissioned mod system would look like - I would love to run a labeller that could decide who got to use it

v0.1 pre-alpha of a science pack - based on some recs & top 10 contributors to the 🧪 feed in the last 90 days will not be able to include everyone (e.g. there's a limit of 3 feeds) - please sound off if you think these are materially wrong (you can share this, but may get deleted and run by Dani)

post-locked threads 👀

📢 1.87 is rolling out now (2/4) Sometimes a thread gets too heated. Now you can lock a thread retroactively so that only the people you specify (or nobody!) can reply. Also: muting a thread now works more reliably.

I love this invite codes 2.0 are so cool 👀
