to help others work with the numbers, we add notes regarding the number 2 and number 0 that we are not certain whether they will stay the same numbers, and assertions we make about them are dependent on them being “0” and “2” in ascending order. if they change to other numbers, assertions regarding their relation with “1” may no longer be true.

I came to coderman on the offtopic tor irc channel in the mid 2010s. He forwarded me here. I returned to the channel and it seemed to havenchanged, and people talked like they were involved in what was happening to me (“we are controlling you”). When I managed to return to that channel some years later, it had disappeared (“dumpster fire”) and I was muted when I tried to discuss things. I expect I am here because I don’t know what to do, it seemed like my last resource to sort things out. Coderman said he doesn’t remember the exchange. This is my whole life, and I don’t know what it is, but people near here did. Because of it I live in two parts, always battling not to harm others and myself. It’s similar to psychotic breaks but more dissociative, focused on my behavior and thoughts with conflicting reasons. It’s nice to be able to express a little in the spam posting after having been so strongly silenced, and it gives the other part ease to be spamming. It’s really helped me think occasionally. Honestly something wasn’t expecting PGP to be so hard, and I wasn’t expecting coderman to not remember this exchange. It was a gamble, and now I don’t know what to do.

Known fascists still apparently loyal to the Mange include left-fascists, John Pilger, Tariq Ali and John Young. Amirite? Young and Ali also looked like the walking-dead, last time I looked. Right, Grampus? They could all be in Lenin's Tomb by now. Easier to imagine the death of Communism than capital, these days. Fortunately!

When society and nations are being wrecked by socialism, wokeism, homoism, globalism, economic nonsense, and fully pointless corrupt and unnecessary governments, when the peoples are taxflated to death, have no freespeech, no freedom, war is raging, AI tracks and influences everyone, the world is falling down, and you can't even get a simple Whammlette at the Whammyburger two minutes past the Corporate serverbot cutoff... One man has had enough... https://twitter.com/barstoolsports/status/1704261831722770655 Yes, there he is... My Man !!! :) " There is really no society at this point. I dont even really blame the guy. Society hasnt done anything for me lately. Or really ever. I dont feel I owe it much. Or really anything. Whats the point of putting on clothes if you dont feel like it? Who do you owe it to to wear clothes? The Jews and immigrants? The women who control everything? I dont owe these people. Moving forward, I might just go around nude. Buying and wearing clothing is a burden that I dont really have the tolerance for anymore. Conservative white men all have this idea that society is on their backs and theyre the ones holding it together. Well, that part is true. But they have this idea that they have a duty to do that. But its a duty to whom? What exactly are you getting out of maintaining the illusion that we live in a society? Youre basically getting nothing but hassle and punishment. In the video, the guy recording yells at the nude stroller: "my man." This is a way of communicating: "yeah, that guys right -- fuck everything. Who cares?" If someone can come up with a good reason not to walk around in the nude, Id like to hear it. -- Andrew Anglin Publisher of the original most censorbanned blog on the planet. https://gab.ai/AndrewAnglin https://vk.com/dailystormer14 https://chat.efnet.org/#dailystormer http://stormer5v52vjsw66jmds7ndeecudq444woadhzr2plxlaayexnh6eqd.onion/ "

[ot] 3B / 3GB quantized edge language model
by Undescribed Horrific Abuse, One Victim & Survivor of Many 23 Sep '23

23 Sep '23

I might be wondering if this is useful for hobby finetuning. Only 8k context length though (some models have 128k now), although ALiBi is purported to be extendable to longer context lengths than it was trained on. https://huggingface.co/papers/2309.11568 BTLM-3B-8K: 7B Parameter Performance in a 3B Parameter Model We introduce the Bittensor Language Model, called "BTLM-3B-8K", a new state-of-the-art 3 billion parameter open-source language model. BTLM-3B-8K was trained on 627B tokens from the SlimPajama dataset with a mixture of 2,048 and 8,192 context lengths. BTLM-3B-8K outperforms all existing 3B parameter models by 2-5.5% across downstream tasks. BTLM-3B-8K is even competitive with some 7B parameter models. Additionally, BTLM-3B-8K provides excellent long context performance, outperforming MPT-7B-8K and XGen-7B-8K on tasks up to 8,192 context length. We trained the model on a cleaned and deduplicated SlimPajama dataset; aggressively tuned the \textmu P hyperparameters and schedule; used ALiBi position embeddings; and adopted the SwiGLU nonlinearity. On Hugging Face, the most popular models have 7B parameters, indicating that users prefer the quality-size ratio of 7B models. Compacting the 7B parameter model to one with 3B parameters, with little performance impact, is an important milestone. BTLM-3B-8K needs only 3GB of memory with 4-bit precision and takes 2.5x less inference compute than 7B models, helping to open up access to a powerful language model on mobile and edge devices. BTLM-3B-8K is available under an Apache 2.0 license on Hugging Face: https://huggingface.co/cerebras/btlm-3b-8k-base.

Cryptocurrency: FUD Spewing Hater and Grabber Dem Sen Menendez Indicted for Corruption

2022: Menendez says El Salvador and Bitcoin opens for corruption laundering 2023: Menendez indicted for corruption, $580k in cash and gold US Democrat Senator Bob Menendez indicted for corrupt bribery, bribes, extortion, fraud, linked to cross-border Islamic interests. This is the same gun grabbing asshole that sparked the "Menendez Mags" and suppressors 3DPrint Revolution meme... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bk-sXFWtX7Q Menendez Mags https://www.crypto-law.us/the-ethereum-free-pass-fair-notice-and-the-fight-… This moron was also indicted back in 2015 but ended in mistrial despite clear evidence that he took bribery. Instead of thanking his lucky star, he carried on and even had balls to write up a bill to combat "money laundering" using Bitcoin. Gtfo. He now works for a16z. They do favors for industry they're supposed to regulate and then get a cushy job after leaving government role. Every government agency gets captured like that. In an exposé, a guy from Blackrock bragged about how they could buy a Senator for 10 grand. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/menendez-jury-says-a… https://jonathanturley.org/2022/10/27/sen-bob-menendez-is-reportedly-under-… Democrat Sen. Bob Menendez, Wife Indicted Over Gold Bar And Other Bribery Schemes Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) and his wife Nadine have been indicted in New York for allegedly accepting bribes in relation to an allegedly corrupt relationship they had with three businessmen from their home state. The indictment also charges three businessmen, Wael Hana, Jose Uribe and Fred Daibes. "Those bribes included cash, gold, payments toward a home mortgage, compensation for a low-or-no-show job, a luxury vehicle, and other things of value," reads the indictment. Daibes, a developer and former bank chairman, allegedly gave Menendez gold bars valued at approximately $400,000, in exchange for assistance in a case in which he faced federal bank charges. Instead of facing over 10 years in prison, Daibes, a felon, only ended up serving probation after striking an agreement with the US Attorney's Office in New Jersey. "For purposes of the Federal Extortion Act, it makes no difference if the senator took an official act so long as he accepted the money and there was knowledge the money was in exchange for that official influence, even if he never carried out what he had promised he would do," according to NBC Legal Analyst Danny Cevallos. Menendez disclosed that his family had accepted gold bars in 2020. Daibes encountered bank fraud charges that could have netted him up to a decade in prison for lying about a nearly $2 million loan from Mariner's Bank, where Daibes served as chairman. Last year, however, New Jersey's U.S. Attorney's Office agreed to let Daibes plead guilty to one count and serve probation. They said Daibes had repaid the loan. -Fox News According to the report, Menendez, 69, is 'close' with US Attorney Philip Sellinger - having supported him for the position, while Sellinger had previously raised funds for Menendez's campaign. Bob Menendez and wife Nadine Officials are also looking at whether Menendez, the former Chairman of the powerful Senate Foreign Relations Committee, or his wife, had improperly received gifts from a New Jersey food processor who obtained an exclusive contract with the Egyptian government to certify halal food experts around the world. Egyptian officials and the New Jersey businessman who received the contract were hosted by Menendez in his office in 2018, according to the Wall Street Journal. A year later, the businessman became the "sole certifier of halal meat exported from the U.S. to Egypt," the outlet noted. NBC News 4 said the gifts included the usage of a Mercedes and a luxury Washington, D.C., apartment. Investigators are attempting to resolve if Menendez, chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, used his standing to help the man secure the contract. -Fox News According to the indictment, Menendez provided 'sensitive US Government information to Egypt.' Indictment says this info wasn't classified, but was "highly sensitive." And it was shared very shortly after Menendez allegedly sought it. pic.twitter.com/GQPqXdLgYB — Aaron Blake (@AaronBlake) September 22, 2023 Menendez and his wife are charged with three counts: conspiracy to commit bribery, conspiracy to commit honest services fraud, and conspiracy to commit extortion under color of official right. In June of last year, federal agents searched Menendez's New Jersey home, where they found "fruits" of the pair's "corrupt bribery agreement" with the three businessman - including over $480,000 in cash, some of which was stuffed in envelopes, and $70,000 in Nadine Menendez's safe deposit box. They also found gold bars worth over $100,000, "provided by either Hana or Daibes." In the months before his office admitted he was under federal investigation, Menendez's wife sold up to $400,000 in gold bars between April 7, 2022 and June 16, 2022. A press event will be held today at 11:00 a.m. to announce the unsealing of an indictment charging Robert Menendez, U.S. Senator from New Jersey, and his wife, Nadine Menendez, with bribery offenses in connection with their corrupt relationship with three New Jersey businessmen. pic.twitter.com/CLTXnU0mAm — US Attorney SDNY (@SDNYnews) September 22, 2023 This is hardly the first time Menendez has been under federal criminal investigation. If we’ve learned anything from DOJ this year, it’s that if you’re going to take gold or diamonds from foreigners in exchange for official acts, your last name had better be Biden. — Sean Davis (@seanmdav) September 22, 2023
