It's just a different workflow IMO. AI is effectively real-time, whereas offshoring, no matter the quality, is something you have to do in batches.

(Author here) Hi everyone, thanks for the spirited debate! I think there are some great points in the discussion so far. Some thoughts: * "This didn't work for offshoring, why will it work all of a sudden?" I think there are

(Author here) I can certainly appreciate having an alternate perspective, but I think it's unfair to say it's DOA. I've personally used this workflow for the last 6 months and shipped a lot of features into our product, inclu

(Author here) Personally, I try to combat this by synchronously working on 1 task and asynchronously working on others. I am not sure it's perfect, but it definitely helps me avoid atrophy.

Cool to see the balance between UX and security. I really like the UI!

Thanks for mentioning Braintrust! We are very committed to the proxy :) Although, to your point, we have seen less market pull for routing, and more for (a) supporting the latest LLMs, (b) basic translation (e.g. tool call API b/w Anth

We absolutely can. The proxy already supports running in multiple environments, including your own AWS VPC deployed on Lambda, so I'm sure we could add support for Bedrock (Anthropic or other models). Feel free to ping me at ankur@brai

We think a lot about this. I think it's very important to us to provide building blocks that foster a more open ecosystem. Part of that is providing building blocks (like the proxy) that do not lock you too much into "our" wa

Model routers are a "semantic" abstraction -- they analyze the contents of a prompt and automatically determine which provider to use. This proxy is (currently) much simpler: you pick the provider you want and we add a bunch of ni

LiteLLM is a great project. The key differences (from what I can tell) are that: a) This is hosted b) Supports caching and load balancing c) Can manage multiple providers behind a single API key d) Implemented in Typescript (vs. Python) On

It's not open source at the moment, but we're definitely open to it.

Who do you think is the sweet spot user for Rivet? Anyone building any LLM app, or a certain kind (e.g. agents)? Is there a use case for which you'd advise against using Rivet?

I'm not super familiar with Dolt's SQL implementation, but I'm surprised that a simple `count(*)` query timed out: https://www.dolthub.com/repositories/dolthub/transparency-in...

Great to see popular SaaS use cases commoditized and opened up like this. After product categories start to fossilize into a standard UX + features, the benefits of using an expensive vendor start to decrease.

Will you ever consider using EBS volumes or another mechanism which supports random writes?

Why use Kubernetes if you’re in control of the cloud environment? What does it bring to the table? Why not firecracker?

I love DuckDB and am cheering for MotherDuck, but I think bragging about how fast you can query small data is really no different than bragging about big data. In reality, big data's success is not about data volume. It's about

It’d be great to show the debugging experience in the video (in fact, I’d prefer seeing that over the breadth of features). E.g. what happens when there’s a syntax error in my sql query or the python code fails on an invalid input? That ten

The Rust vs. Go comparison has two key differences: - The Rust example uses 8 bit unsigned ints vs. Go example uses 32 bit signed ints - Rust's sort is stable by default whereas Go's is not. If you tweak the Rust benchmark to us

They release a lot of weights open source, including T5 (the underlying model they used in this work). They also indicated their intent here: https://twitter.com/aleksandrafaust/status/15799326368934420... .

This is a "classic" tension. Having worked in the (broader) RPA space for a while, I would say that the true north star of most processes is (a) rewriting the internal procedures to be transformations on data (not UIs) and (b) sta
