Still, who the heck takes a job interview call on their office laptop??

I bet he’s gonna get an offer from some scummy company like Byju soon.

Good on him for taking it down. Good lesson learned. Hope it didn’t drown him in debt!

“Terabytes”??

Oof. Someone miscalculated what they were getting out of this venture!

Yeah but isn’t the max monthly something absurd? Like 1 TB? I know it’s probably not scalable, but this person is just shitting money anyway at this point, so that would be better. No?

Damn. Don’t give away the blueprint!

Hetzner you say? Not digitalocean (I know, the Omarchy link) or Vultr?

Cloudflare edge is a fine use of this, though even basic nginx level caching can handle this. Heck, if it’s vercel they can still use some caching in front of it to cool off the use.

But… most coders rarely have infra knowledge, let alone hit-and-run vibe coders, who have neither.

despite this, the thief decided to roll out their own, AI coded clone? Pathetic search skills!

depends on what their base model is. Most abliterated models start off with an already quantized model, so depending on the type and level of quantization, you’ve already lost some capability. Plus, I think there are two types of abliteration, so ymmv.

My current go tos, in order are -

• eriktonon/gemma4-uncensored:26b-a4b
• orcarouter/Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored:iq2_xxs
• hf.co/HauhauCS/Gemma-4-E4B-Uncensored-HauhauCS-Aggressive:Q6_K_P

I’ve tried and hated - hf.co/DavidAU/L3.1-Dark-Reasoning-Dark-Planet-Hermes-R1-Uncensored-Horror-Imatrix-MAX-8B-GGUF:latest

If you’re set on trying out Qwen, I highlugh recomment orcarouter’s models. Very well done and they start off with a good base model - well, actually now that I think about it, Qwen3.8 basically has one base model - the 27b one, right? So that’s that.

I like the Gemma-4-E4B for speed for response, and HauhauCS has done a good job of abliterating the model appropriately. However, it’s nothing compared to the A4B models, so if your hardware can take it, go for A4B over E4B always.

true… oh wait, is the code on github or some other VCS? 😄

Like, TTFT? Or speed of tokens? Or something else? BTW what was the gate you initially hit with Qwen?

No, the bigger story is the theft of the stories. Something like this could have been done with any off the shelf CMS, like WordPress.

Oh, abliterated models are awesome! Just be aware that they’re a little too agentic at times. Once they start ignoring guardrails, they happily keep ignoring them!

No, they just enabled Chinese LLMs to be the forefront of reverse engineering. Because people will do what they want to do.

The Steam link is for gaming?

Is that why a lot of people still don’t use it?

Anthropic logged net loss of over $80 billion in first half of 2026, WSJ reports October 20, 2026 3:41 PM EDT Updated 51 mins ago

Oct 20 (Reuters) - Anthropic reported a net loss of more than $80 billion in the first half of the year and signaled it could spend as much as $750 billion in ​the coming years to secure more computing capacity, the Wall Street ‌Journal reported on Tuesday.

The loss, up from $13 billion a year earlier, was driven by $72 billion in accounting charges tied to changes in the value of financial instruments Anthropic issued to raise money, the ​report said, citing a draft prospectus for its IPO.

The figures show the hefty costs ​of the AI race even as investors look harder at whether the money ⁠companies are pouring into chips and data centers will pay off.

Anthropic’s revenue jumped ​to $16.3 billion in the six months ended June 30 from $1.1 billion a year ago, while AI ​infrastructure spending nearly quadrupled to almost $9 billion, the Journal said.

Anthropic did not respond to a request for comment and Reuters could not immediately verify the report.

ANTHROPIC’S IPO VALUATION UNDER SCRUTINY

Reuters reported first ​in September that Anthropic posted a net loss of $42 billion in 2025, as part of a ​series of exclusives from its IPO prospectus. The company has benefited from the popularity of Claude Code, ‌its ⁠coding assistant that developers use to write software and build apps.

But some current investors and prospective investors who attended Anthropic’s investor day last week are weighing a lower valuation for the AI company after its latest financial disclosures, four people familiar ​with the matter had ​told Reuters.

The investors ⁠who attended the event in San Francisco discussed a valuation of around $1.5 trillion, three of the people had said, a significant step ​down from the roughly $2 trillion valuation previously expected for the November share ​sale.

Anthropic told ⁠investors at the meeting that its third-quarter revenue jumped 45% to $16.8 billion from the previous quarter, and that it was profitable on an adjusted basis during the quarter.

A cooler reception ⁠for Anthropic’s ​IPO could weigh on the wider AI market, ​whose near-term prospects investors see as hinging largely on the share sale’s success, ahead of rival OpenAI’s potential listing ​next year.

Noice!

In app safari on Mlem got all greens.

Oh, I thought HQ is in Cali? I know, I know… “HQ”.

Yes they are… it was mostly a facetious comment. I think it’s two brothers and one handle California and sales and the other handles China and production.
