Just to point it out, Cursor has not made any good models themselves. Composer 2 is Kimi K2.5, and they tried to pass it as their own until people noticed that the api specified it as Kimi.

Qwen3.5 27B works very well, to the point that if you use money on Claude 4.5 Haiku you could save hundreds of USD each day by running it yourself on a consumer GPU at home.

At least for me, it's cheap. Even Claude Haiku 4.5 would cost over $60 each day for the same token amount, after accounting for electricity costs. I have the hardware for other reasons anyway, so why not use it, avoid privacy issues an

I guess this might be a decent way to farm data? Those with larger OSS projects usually have better code quality, making it easier to create a dataset with maybe higher quality for training. Considering how often people leak data to the LLM

Fun challenge, but running the benchmark on Apple hardware is a weird decision as Apple doesn't even have server hardware. Would make much more sense to run it on a dedicated Linux box as that is more accessible and more realistic.

To be fair, he's completely right. I have a lot of experience with IE6 and safari on iOS, and while IE6 was bad and did weird shit, Safari is much worse. It's amazing that things can work in any browser, without ever even thinking

If you're looking up values from a 3 GB DB, most would have to hit RAM. Lookups form a hash map can be fast, but SQLite does quite a bit more than just a hash map lookup, and it would usually hit RAM, not L3 cache.

You do have some weird takes on why I'm doing things. The game is free. Not because I'm trying to exploit someone, but because it's much harder and more expensive to market a paid game. I don't have DLCs, cause all conte

A one time payment for an ongoing service is not sustainable. Infrastructure and content isn't free, the same way you don't pay a one time payment for netflix.

It's not solved if you're not allowed to bill for fees seperatly. The end result is the same, so it's a dumb rule. It just makes it less clear what you're actually paying for.

40 million reads per second, on a single core? 40 million reads/s is 25 ns per read, that is faster than any RAM I know of.

I do t have time to test myself now, but it would be interesting to see a proper benchmark. We all know it's not suitable for high write concurrency, but SQLite should be a very good amount faster for reads because of the lack of overh

How freaking expensive do you think infrastructure is? It's not that expensive, and certainly not anywhere close to the point where it would make a noticeable impact on GDP.

It's not a wrong solution. It's been commonly used since forever, tens of years before the sec-fetch-site header existed, and it stops CSRF. Sec-fetch-site is not supported in old browsers, so relying on that is unsafe without any

The simplest way to prevent CSRF is to use the Referer header, and that has been used since forever. If the header is missing, you no-op the post. Origin is similar, and can be used with referer as fallback, but it's not needed for mos

This is very misleading. The secure defaults for sqlite is changed, so commits are not actually written to the disk. Running sqlite like this will cause data loss on os crash or power loss.

Yeah yeah. Nobody believes what Americans say, be that Trump, Elon or Apple. They're all full of shit, and they rarely do what they say. The average junkie is a more reliable source on what Apple will do than Apple itself.
