Planck units are the smallest packets of something, which is called quanta. Planck discovered he could get more accurate measurements if he separated the energy from radiation in small packages, which proved useful for other theories later.

 

Today I had to downgrade fastapi from 0.114.0 to 0.112.4 to make a software work. And it just hit me - what if pip didn't support 0.112.4 anymore? We would lose a good piece of software just because of that.

Of course, we can "freeze" the packages into an executable that will run for as long as the OS supports it. Which is a lot longer. But the executable is closed source. We can't see the code that is run from an executable.

Therefore, there is a need for an alternative to which we still have access to the packages even after the program is built. That would make it safely unnecessary for pip to store all versions of all packages forever more.

Any ideas?

If Health won't make piracy legal, it's hard to believe anything else will.

This is incredible. But how to make this legal?

oobabooga is better than GPT4ALL. The software is better. You load gguf files using llama.cpp that is integrated with it.

I like Lemmy's culture better. It isn't perfect, and maybe someday I'll create my own instance. And I can do that.

I used it to check a user input format.
