Unfortunately they forgot to remove Rust coreutils and sudo-rs from Ubuntu prior to releasing 26.04. I am starting to suspect this even might be intentional.

Yes absolutely Linux on Mac is not good enough. However Apple left the door open and it's just that the community is crawling too slowly.

I'm pretty sure that all Stripe abstractions and layers they do have a merit. No doubt and I'm being serious here. However: PaymentIntent, InvoiceCreationIntent, InvoiceCreationSession, InvoiceCharge. InvoiceChargeIntent, InvoiceC

So much this. Releasing two MAJOR SDK versions with breaking changes in a single week doesn't help either. [1] I dread every time they release a new SDK version because for me it means only more work for zero value. I've got so

Excellent article. Although I have been in the world of waterfall development back in the day and I see zero ways in which waterfall is beneficial for the vast vast majority of the projects. (There are industries and projects where waterfal

I was comparing various models at M5 Pro 48GB RAM MLX vs GGUF and found that MLX models have a higher time to first token (sometimes by an order of magnitude) while tokens/sec and memory usage is same as GGUF. Gemma 3 27B q4: * MLX: 16

Good catch actually. Okay maybe not exactly caveman dialect, but text compression using LLM is definitely possible to save on tokens in deep research.

by egorfine 6mo ago
They are indeed impractical in agentic coding. However in deep research-like products you can have a pass with LLM to compress web page text into caveman speak, thus hugely compressing tokens.

No worries, someone else will do that for them. Just like they explained. And given that they will not rewrite the whole codebase in the next few days it means that security vulnerabilities are still there to be discovered by someone willin

Understood. 1. Can we agree that this kind of corporate tradition does in fact exist at Google? 2. Can we agree that Google has a history of treating projects this way?

What's preventing cal.com to run the AI researcher over their own codebase and find their vulnerabilities before anyone else and patch them all by tomorrow morning? That's right. Nothing.
