This just wrapping llama.cpp right? I’m sorry but I’m pretty tired of projects wrapping x.cpp.

I’ve been developing a Rust + WebGPU ML framework for the past 6 months. I’ve learned quickly how impressive the work by GG is.

It’s early stages but you can check it out here: https://www.ratchet.sh/ https://github.com/FL33TW00D/whisper-turbo



Can you elaborate on what you find impressive? I know nothing about this stuff so I can't appreciate it.


This is really cool! Thank you for sharing! Excited to follow your progress!


Thank you!


You ripped on someone else’s work and promoted your own in the same comment?? You need to seriously reflect upon your ethics.


I appreciate the work that went into slimming this binary down, but it's a ~negligble amount of work compared to llama.cpp itself.

HN is inundated with posts doing xyz on top of the x.cpp community. Whilst I appreciate it is exciting - I wish more people would explore the low-level themselves! We can be much more creative in this new playground.


Isn’t doing Stuff on top of it what it’s for? llama.cpp is explicitly highly portable systems code with bindings in many languages.


Why not both.

This isn't directed at the author of this post. I was just referring to the plethora of thin x.cpp wrappers.


Just to add a different POV, this didn't register as an "insult" or "idiotic take" at all for me.

If a project amounts to basically running another project's binary and displaying the results, it's fair criticism to point that out, is it not?

Just to clarify. Are you the author?

You are not being creative gatekeeping, this behavior is quite old.


Who's GG?
