I'm pleased to release `llama-dl`, a high-speed download script for Facebook's 65B GPT model. It downloads at around 200MB/s, so it finishes ~18x faster than the torrent.
Be sure to read the disclaimers in the README. Enjoy.

Thanks for calling this out 🙏❤️ So, so many businesses only stand behind their people like this on paper, and would never engage on social media about customers displaying this sort of aggro behavior. You’re part of the solution, hope you know that!
Writing code consists of: 10% the actual coding, 40% thinking through solutions and sanity checking them, and 50% trying to figure out which StackOverflow/YouTube browser tab was the useful one.

did the 8 year old version of yourself want to sit on a 1hr sprint planning zoom call?
Dear social media,
I have made a conscious effort to be hypersensitive to the way it *could* possibly make men feel to discuss issues related to being a woman in tech. I have been so careful to tread lightly.
Too little good faith has come my way for me to keep giving it. No man I know has ever had to apologize for not doing this, and I’m not going to apologize either.
Filter your Amazon order history by the oldest possible year. What was your first on-record purchase?
The first thing I bought, back in 2007, is actually still for sale:

Entrapment is illegal when it’s a police officer (good). But maybe it’s standard practice in hiring? Yuck.

Mark Zuckerberg didn’t found Facebook until he was 19.
Evan Spiegel didn’t found Snapchat until he was 23.
The Collison brothers didn’t found Stripe until they were 22 and 20.
It’s never too late to start a company.
