Residential proxies are the only way to crawl and scrape. It's ironic for this article to come from the biggest scraping company that ever existed! If you crawl at 1Hz per crawled IP, no reasonable server would suffer from this. It&#x2

Does Creality have special changes made to the slicer? If it's just the profilem, then running the PrusaSlicer app image might be the easiest. PrusaSlicer appimage has always worked perfectly on Ubuntu 22 LTS.

Not sure about Autodesk, but have you tried FreeCAD? I own a perpetual SolidWorks license but haven't even activated it. Used it quite lot on another license but I just prefer FreeCAD so much. It does choke on high primitive counts tho

My wild guess is that jamming is local. Major cities may be fully jammed. To get an idea about GNSS jamming range (different signal of course, probably much easier to jam), there are maps online where you can see which parts of Europe are c

Are you being sarcastic or serious? Meeting requirements is implicitly part of any task. Quality/quantification will be embedded in the tasks (e.g. X must be Y <unit>); code style and quality guidelines are probably there somewhe

First time I'm seeing this on HN. Maybe it was posted earlier. Have been doing manual orchestration where I write a big spec which contains phases (each done by an agent) and instructions for the top level agent on how to interact with

Wow, CAMEL looks very interesting, newer heard of that. Will look into it.

Has anybody tried this? Probably won't make sense to use Opus with this due to the API costs, but other models may work well perhaps?

by edg5000 9mo ago
I've seen terrible things where it would overcomplicate and duplicate. But I've also seen it write really good code. I've been trying to get it to do the latter consistently. Detailed specs and heavy use of agents really help

From some comments I read in this thread, costs could be around 100-500k USD to get anywhere near current frontier models. My concern is that the constant price reductions we saw in cost per transistor (either storage or logic) over the las

Ah, so the computer doesn't need to be trusted at all, it's just an untrusted medium, just like when using encryption when sending data. All the trust would be at the vendor and inside external hardware device.

Nonsense indeed. The model knowledge is the current state of the art. Any computation it does, advances it. It re-ingests work of prior agents every time you run it on your codebase, so even though the model initializes the same way (until

Are you hand-fixing the issues or having AI do it? I've found that second pass quality is miles away from an initial implementation. If you're experienced, you'll know exactly where the code smells are. Point this out, and th

It took me a few months of working with the agents to get really productive with it. The gains are significant. I write highly detailed specs (equiv multiple A4 pages) in markdown and dicate the agent hierarchy (which agent does what, who r

Yeah, for most applications it's preferred that way. It's only for the ultra-compact, ultra high volume production, ultra high energy densities that packing it all into a single, unobody die and package could make sense. It would

Can you elaborate. Say I buy parts myself and install a fully FOSS OS on my machine. Let's say I want to access my bank, and they demand attestation. You propose I'd buy an off-the-shelf, universal attestation module of my chosing

by edg5000 9mo ago
> We need a hardware attestation vendor We never had one on desktop; no real issues. Hardware attestation is primarily in the interest of the vendor, not the user. The user relies on chains of trust. This is how the world works.

Good point. Most of the cost in dealing with tech debt is reading the code and noting the issues. I found that Claude can produce much better code when it has a functionally correct reference implementation. Also it's not needed to ver

Interesting. Another thing I'll try is editing the system propmts. There are some projects floating around that can edit the minified JavaScript in the client. I also noticed that the "system tools" prompts take up ~5% contex

Is Gemini 3 still having all these bugs in the software around it? The model is great, but I had all these little bugs (billing issues, attachment not accesible by the model, countless other issues). Then there is the CLI; I always got &quo

This is very interesting, for someone not involved in doing chip design, it's very interesting to get an idea of the open source landscape. Very exiting. I like the idea of consolidating some power electronics and logic into a single c

Opus can produce beatiful code. It can outcode a good programmer. But getting it to do this reliably is something I've gotten better at over the last year; it's a skill that took quite a bit of practice. I now write very long spec

The mechanization and scaling up of farming caused a tectonic shift from rural residents moving to cities to take on factory jobs as well as office and retail jobs. We saw this in China until very recently, since they had a bit of a slow st
