Are the Q* models open source with open data? Asking because other than the known tianamen limitation, prompting these models for any advice about acts against authority in a corporate setting yields strong recommendations of compliance. Haven’t explored this deeply, but it was enough of a red flag to limit use to coding/logic tasks.
Q* was the codename for a model at OpenAI that was eventually released under the name o1. This model is something different. QwQ and QvQ are open source models made by the Qwen Team.
Open source CLI to deploy multiple gpu vm’s on all major cloud providers, with an option to use spot pricing with 1 cheap vm used as a controller to always make sure you have the most inexpensive deployment available with failover and load balancing.
It’s like beating the cloud providers at their own game I wouldn’t be surprised if they banned it.
Tell your friend to call his parents more - Most parental ‘tech issues’ escalate as an excuse to see and talk to their children more, rather than the flash attention they usually need to settle for.
“Is a relational database even appropriate for gridded weather data? No idea but we’ll find out.”
Love this. It’s the exact opposite of all the other ‘well actually’ mainstream tech posts and I am here for all of it. Props for keeping the reader fully engaged on the journey.
Haha thank you for reading and glad you found it engaging! Maybe it's the benefit of being a beginner and not having any skin in the game. I did a lot of searching but couldn't find any conclusive answers for my use case so figured I may as well run the benchmarks myself.
It should be noted that while the HP Prodesk was released in 2020, the CPU’s Skylake architecture was designed in 2014. Architecture is a significant factor in this style of engineering gymnastics to squeeze the most out of silicon.
Your experience is very relatable. My first Proxmox adventure began with installing Proxmox 8 on 2 hetzner boxes: one with CPU, one with GPU. Spent two straight weekends on the CPU box and just when I was about to give up on proxmox completely I had a good night’s sleep and things finally ‘clicked’. Now I’m drinking the proxmox koolaid 100% and making it my go-to OS.
For the GPU box I completely abandoned the install after attempting to do the gymnastics around GPU passthrough. I like Proxmox but I’m not a masochist - Looking forward to the day when that just works.
