It’s just basic respect.

How does it create liability to say “I’d like to have more advanced Python skills, specifically the using object oriented code to structure a solution to the problem”

I feel like society has gone insane. Don’t do anything, it might upset someone, or you could step on someone’s emotional support ant, and we’ll get sued!

What is the learning/on-boarding curve for this?

I ask because my home folder has a giant just file I use to script everything. I feel like I’m 80% there to just migrating.

I have interviewed people for a long long time, and unless they were egregiously bad (obviously cheating, or failed every part of the technical) I have always written them a paragraph of feedback.

Every single candidate. It’s not hard, takes 5 minutes

No feedback email either. Possibly just ghosted.

This only strengthens my receive that we should ditch US tech.

Side note: a vibe coded update in Google cloud deletes hours of my work today. My notebooks never actually saved despite saying they were.

US tech is fucking garbage.

Thank you, and yes, I meant not needing to be plugged into an active monitor with mouse and keyboard running.

I think from just this discussion I’m realizing some of what I didn’t know I didn’t know/misunderstood about the whole desktop system on Linux.

I’m relatively new to Linux and this is deeper than a usual topic into a stack I don’t know.

I have a server, it has a graphics card, and I already have steam running with GameScope so the whole app renders into a single frame buffer.

I just don’t know how the graphics/app pipeline plumbing needs to work to be able to run that headlessly and stream it, which would be my ideal situation.

Thank you, I will check this out!

Can you run this headless, or do you need Wayland running?

Love mistral, we need for of them!

That it happened pnce is enough to never trust them again

It’s still a fantastic computer.

I use it as a server and it’s very very fast, especially threaded workflows, and IO is fast.

Just don’t buy it expecting to replace paid AI services. And don’t buy it for AI dev, on paper it should be good, but driver issues. DGX Spark is better if yo want an AI dev machine.

How did they get this to run, I thought browser stuff was capped to 4gb?

It would not be worth it as a replacement for Claude.

80% of my issue is that it’s AMD and their drivers are still awful. 20% is that the token generation speed very slow, especially compared to commercial models running on dedicated hardware. MOE models are fine, dense models are too slow for meaningful workflows. ComfyUI is decent, but I’m not seriously into image gen.

I have a lot of fun with it, but I have not been able to use it for any actual AI dev.

Yes

High RAM for MOE models, high VRAM for dense models, and the highest GPU memory bandwidth you can get.

For stable diffusion models (comfyui), you want high VRAM and bandwidth. Diffusion is a GPU heavy and memory intensive operation.

Software/driver support is very important for diffusion models and comfy UI, so your best experience will be Nvidia cards.

I think realistically you need 80gb+ of RAM for things like qwen image quants (40 for model, 20-40 for LORA adapters in ComfyUI to get output).

I run an 128gb AMD AI 395+ Max rig, qwen image takes 5-20 minutes per 720p qwen image result in ComfyUI. Batching offers an improvement, reducing iterations during prototyping makes a huge difference. I have not tested since the fall though, and the newer models are more efficient.

They also support restic if you get annoyed at borg lock issues.

I need a home for my orphaned podman containers /s

I think this is better targeted to small and medium businesses.

if you run this as a NAS you could easily have all your budd s obsesses files in one place without needing complex networking.

That is so cool

You could buy a few of these, run them in RAID, and be able to store all of the mahority of businesses complete data on it.

All you need is an offsite backup and that solves so many problems that result in overpaying for cloud.
