TigerData is bold, fast, and built to power the next era of software. We already have a Tiger-themed database at home: https://github.com/tigerbeetle/tigerbeetle

Rust importing Rust must be statically linked, yes. You can statically link Rust into a dynamic library that other libraries link to, though!

This is really cool! It strikes me as being useful for genomic data, which is always stored in compressed chunks. That was the first time I really understood the hard trade-off between seek time and compression.

Looks like he actually tried it: But some ideas cannot be crushed by bankruptcy and the dream of providing lenses to all of America’s hens was carried on by the son of one of Vision Control Inc.’s founders, a young Mr. Randall Wise. Wis

An even simpler explanation is that regular UI redesigns are an important tool for a device manufacturer to make the experience feel new or refreshed, and this novelty helps sell devices. Everyone reacts to the content of the redesign when

building on ten years of earlier research for a book on cosmological natural selection This is awesome, thank you! I’m interested in the general space I loved this overview on our current approaches to measure the expansion: https:

This theory is in the same space: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_natural_selection I don’t think it has a hypothesis for the origin, though

I actually think they’re worried about foreign actors using it for… - generating synthetic data to train their own models - hacking and exploitation research etc

There is an ISO standard for digital ID, the same one used by the TSA, and it’s coming to the web soon! Human verification is going to continue to grow in importance.

I was more excited by the process, like, there exists a model out there so powerful it requires KYC which, after using it, fair! It found a zero day

I first encountered this with gas in the Ethereum VM. For Ethereum, they price different operations to reflect their real world cost: storing something forever on the blockchain is expensive whereas multiplying numbers is cheap I’m not sure

One of the reasons OrbStack is so great is because they implement their own hypervisor: https://orbstack.dev/ Apple’s stack gives you low-level access to ARM virtualization, and from there Apple has high-level convenience f

Just wrong. Don’t do that I’d personally qualify this: don’t ship that code, but absolutely do it personally to grow if you’re interested. I’ve grown the most when I start with things I sort of know and I work to expand my understan

Is there an alternative way? Yes, there is. It is called DNS over TLS and is specified as a proposed standard in RFC 7858. This provides transport encryption to DNS without abusing HTTP as transport protocol. HTTP/3 is a ful

This is why serverless is taking off on the opposite end of the spectrum (and why it’s so cheap) You can share memory not only at the machine level, but between different applications.

Yeah! When that happens I usually stop it and tap in a bigger model to “think” and get out of the loop (or fix it myself) I’m impressed with this latest generation of models: they reward hack a lot less. Previously they’d change a failing u

I’m learning live how to use these things better, and I haven’t seen practical guides like: - Split things into small files, today’s model harnesses struggle with massive files - Write lots of tests. When the language model messes up the co

Have you used a language model to program yet?

Yeah – the shadowsocks developer is Chinese and the government went after them for working on an iOS VPN app back in the day on GitHub. That was a while ago, before the CCP had direct control over the App Store with law.

They could enable it on P cores with a separate enablement check and then leave it up to the developer to schedule their code on a P core. I imagine Linux has some API to do that scheduling (because macOS does), not sure about Windows.

Yeah, that makes sense! The drive has been not only for higher density, but also lower cost. Sodium batteries were investigated for cost reasons (to avoid the Lithium) and it turns out that density isn’t as good (for now), but that’s okay f

The world is going to be a very different place because this is going to be possible soon. There’s a startup doing this at substations. They can network these batteries and then use the utilities’ extra wire capacity to redistribute energy

Did not know that! Old article, but: > However, in the nearly four years since the 4680 battery was unveiled in 2020 and began mass production at the end of 2023, companies like CATL and BYD have reduced battery costs to RMB 0.4/Wh.

It's a great idea if you use well-designed batteries! I imagine it is pretty hard to get a BYD Blade to ignite, for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BYD_Blade_battery#Safety
