I think the reasoning is incomplete. RAM isn't the only reason to upgrade. CPU's are more efficient, screens are significantly better and support variable-refresh-rates (and high refresh rates), battery technology has not stood st

Ethan Klein is a terrible example for your argument. He debated Hasan Piker for five hours a year ago and clarified, clearly, an anti-Zionist, pro-Palestinian position on the record. You seem to have decided he's a Zionist anyway. You

There's so much documented evidence of people attacking jewish people who they call zionists without cause that I find this line of reasoning stupid. In recent memory there was Ethan Klein, who is Jewish and has visited Israel but is

It's a valid reminder, but there are plenty of people who despise Jews who are currently operating with total indemnity with this as their defensive line. And even if you call them out, there are people who will openly defend them. I d

I think they mean that these are internal github-org repos. The ones used for running the site itself. Though, its so many that i think there are some customer ones in there too.

The feedback loop is the interesting part, if you use standard software engineering practices (modularise, test/document your interfaces, etc) then I find things like Claude Code do an exceptional job: since they can actually run cargo

Private Repos, in githubs case, might be customer data.

PHP Storm is a proper IDE, Zed is a souped-up editor. It wont be the same experience at all, the debugging and deployment stuff will be strictly inferior and the jump to code might be less impressive. Zed has LSP support though, so if you

in my org, devs don’t have access to customer data directly, and sysadmins don’t have access to modify code. It’s a simple rule from a simpler time, to limit the risk of total compromise.

FreeBSD has a bit more of a lax attitude historically to security[0] and seems to prefer being reasonably performant and "easy to use" (this is subjective, but they care about supporting packages outside of base very much, and bun

Ho-ly cow. That is very impressive. I'm not even sure what to say, but discoveries like this are why I use hackernews, I'd never have known this otherwise.

> Whenever that gets too expensive for Beijing to pay, we won't be getting new SOTA open small models to run on local hardware, which, again, reinforces the decision to use providers for AI inference for now. Valid takeaway. "I

You're reading it backwards. The EU is a lot less energy dependent than it was in 2020, precisely because of the situation they are in now. Just because it's painful and time consuming to fix, doesn't mean that it's no

What I find interesting is that, it really seems that the opposite is true. My great-grandparents (and their entire ancestry that I can trace, all the way back to 1807) were punishingly, desperately : poor. Yet, it seems they averaged a he

I know what you’re quoting, but you've badly misread it. Dario's point was the opposite of yours; he used per-model accounting to explain why the company P&L gets worse every year, not better. His own numbers (10x training cos

Writing your tooling in python is valid while starting out and prototyping. One of the big criticisms I've seen levied against Rust is that refactoring is extremely difficult, so prototyping on ideas in the language itself is a poor ex

The providers on OpenRouter serving open models aren't "throwing money away", agreed. But that's not the point I'm making. (or, it kind of is, but it's more high level than that). They're running spot and

Profitable for inference if you completely ignore training costs and that you absolutely must continuously train new models.

Grafana OSS does support SSO out of the box, at least OIDC (which is a technically superior standard to SAML w.r.t. security). The Enterprise edition seems to focus a lot on meta-information about grafana itself: the most frequently accesse

I think people miss the point about sovreignity. Part of what got Microsoft into this position in the first place is that they built and sold software. Now, they don't build and sell software, they sell services. Services means you&#x2
