“Potentially” is doing some heavy lifting here. As it stands currently, the valuations of these LLM businesses imply that they will be able to capture a lot of the generated value. But the open source/weights offerings, and competition

Interesting, I hadn’t thought about it that way. But can a thing on the other end of an API call ever truly have a “stake“?

This looks very good, easy to understand. Do you have a sense for how much RAM it uses (not for storing the vectors themselves - those I’ll keep in a file), but when doing a search? I have one use case where it could run on a VPS provided i

Tangentially, 50% of effort goes into assembling long complex CLI commands, and 50% fighting with escaping for the shell. Adding text to a video adds it’s own escaping hell for the text. Has anyone found a bulletproof recipe for calling ffm

Whether this is good or bad for Zed remains to be seen. I wonder though what the play is here for Sequoia - like all VCs they’re looking for the possibility of a huge return. I don’t see how “just” an editor (even with paying users) can gen

Some questions for those with RoR experience… 1. If you know Python, Lua, JS and C, how hard would it be to learn Ruby? 2. What’s the best way to learn Ruby and Rails today? 3. How important is it that you know the previous versions of Rai

1. Vim is extremely alive 2. “Lue” is actually Lua 3. It’s very possible to use both Vimscript and Lua in the same Neovim setup, so transition (or don’t) at your leisure. 4. New plugins tend to be written in Lua (for Neovim).

They are specifically looking at R&D in Manufacturing. I think there you can make the case (as they do) that one new innovation can erase the productivity benefits of a prior innovation.

What I meant was that on the one hand the article says that we shouldn’t underestimate the shameless. On the other hand it says that the person who employed shamelessness in the first election likely won’t win again (thereby underestimating

Weird contradiction in the article - it warns us not to complacently write off those who appear shameless… but also: > any major politician sticking to a pre-2016 playbook today is almost certainly not going to win.

The value is in the author’s experience with other tools that caused problems as his database grew, and in learning from his reasoning about the appropriate solution for his particular problem.

This was fun, and the conclusion was pretty good (slight preference for human-friendly and concrete). At first I was frustrated that the answers were very much “it depends”, but then I decided that (a) this is low stakes, (b) just pick the
