You look at them and understand that a real computer company builds our own real, tangible hardware. It’s not just an idea anymore, an incredible team has brought their ideas into the real world. Wanted to make sure to thank Sean for bringing that to life in his photos. www.seangelbaugh.com

They’re in the press release, in our investors’ galleries, and in presentations our sales team puts together. They’re grounded in the reality of a startup; they’re real photos of real pre-production hardware that’s had a long life being shipped around the country to trade shows and customer demos.

Oxide plans new rack attack with Zen 5 CPUs, DDR5 : Oxide says AMD’s Turin EPYCs are coming, switch revamp under review, more open hardware in the works

We raised a $200M Series C, now we're putting it to work.

New compute sleds with the latest AMD EPYC CPUs are coming. We're also working with Xsight Labs on next-gen switch silicon with a fully open instruction set architecture (ISA).

The Register has the details: buff.ly/6ghM2b6

Good conversation with Tony Fadell on where AI in products is BS and where it can practically improve concrete product experiences - are you building a product to enable AI or are you solving a human problem?

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.

This is personal β€” to every one of us.

Usually when I meet someone who is excited about AI but uses ChatGPT, they’ve never heard of Claude or Anthropic.

β€œStop telling people to use LLMs” seems like it would be mostly (only?) concerning coming from management in the context of a job. Though I suppose that means it could have better parallel construction with the β€œstop telling people not to use LLMs” rule.

There was already a β€œno one can be told to use LLMs” rule in the RFD, perhaps you haven’t had a chance to read it yet?

The @frame.work 16 w/ 5070 build day went pretty smoothly

It didn’t want to install Ubuntu via the USB-C ports but worked fine on the USB-A port πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

WiFi card was slightly tougher to swap for an Intel AX210 than I expected due to getting the antenna retention bracket back on

Built a Framework 16 w/my SO today & installed Ubuntu. Windows getting worse and worse plus Linux gaming getting good made it an easier move. And a last hurrah for Crucial memory.

I can’t believe how hard it is to get great (not just okay) meeting notes out of LLMs provided a transcript. I’ve only been able to dial it in with ChatGPT 4.5 and now Opus 4.5

I had a similar thought (I need to write for LLMs and other software to understand ads/marketing and metadata) but keep in mind Bryan is targeting long form prose, which is probably not how you’re communicating with an LLM.
