@halva ive done finetuning on BERT which is like 440 Million and that was 40 minutes on 10k lines of data on a 6700XT with 12gb of VRAM. its doable but slow. anything beyond that is gonna be rough yeah. i think its even funnier to have a 0.5 bil parameter shit model try to write out a sentence like me tho 😭
@null@h@yassie_j oh that's so good autumn. ive been melting lowkey but managing 🫠. and i think rather than "its not a thing here" its more like "its an american thing" where they probably developed all the awesome pumpkin based things and used pumpkin as a base because it's probably one of the only things that grew and could feed a lot of people, that type of thing. and its just been Present in culture ever since
@h@yassie_j@null this isn't a british thing i think this is just a me thing because my parents grow them and funny enough its never with those spices so im definitely able to pickup on it (and differentiate from squash) like the type of stuff we make from pumpkins is like soup, put them in the oven like you would potatoes, put them Into mashed potatoes. stuff like that.
@null@h@yassie_j yeah pretty well here too autumn. been pretty hot hasnt it autumn? i think its a british thing tbh like halloween is the only time you really think about pumpkins, and i don't see many people actually using them in dishes lol
@null@h@yassie_j hows it going autumn, yeah honestly the only reason i have is because my parents grow them. i dont think we'd ever have any pumpkin anything if it wasn't for that
