Agreed. I've started calling our non-production infrastructure environments 'engineering' rather than dev, and nobody's invited. We'll pull in platform teams that are exposed to this shame environmental offset iss

Operationally (and anecdotally obv) we've found that accessing Claude via AWS Bedrock has been notably more stable than direct to Anthropic.

Roughly equivalent to the percentage of startups that fail. Lower numbers don’t mean we’re doing better, it means we’re trying less.

The wild thing is that, if I understand it correctly, if you were floating in a spacesuit at the same spot you'd also see that resolution (likely highly distorted) with the naked eye.

Yeah if the lower 48 states (~2800 miles) span the width of my entire screen (2560px), each pixel represents just over a mile. The satellites at that level were rendered with dots that are ~3px or just over 3 miles/.1% of that width.

My truck (Ford) has some cell connectivity that I’ve never paid for. At scale it’s likely very inexpensive.

What a goofy comment. Pedestrians are *also* subject to right-of-way rules, just like everyone else on the road. Many examples of people running between parked/stopped cars and getting smoked when they hit an open lane with a vehicle

It’s also surprisingly reliable given the physics of it all. I built a house out in the country in 2007 and 10Mbps DSL was all that was available for terrestrial connectivity up until literally yesterday. The DSL would go down for hours a

Great comment! >I thought was kind of the most fascinating part of the damninteresting article was the revelation that the evolved programs were inseparable from the single physical FPGA used in the training. 100% agree with this!!! It

Vendor diversity is a longstanding risk management principle. For it to work you need to invest in it as you build, not when the rug is pulled.

Very cool idea. I'm sure this can be annoying when people do this, but I can't help myself lol. I wonder if you could operate in a different modality and find discontinuities in material properties rather than use it as a classif

I've noticed that more and more of my mental attention while speaking is observing the words that come out of my mouth rather than 'generating' them. I split time between rough pathfinding in my mind to fit a conceptual fram

Same. I still say please and thank you as well. It's not for the LLM, it's for me.

I wonder how much the concept of 'roles' in an LLM is a artifact of the technology vs. a projection of our own human limitations into the training data. I've recently switched from nearly 30 years in cybersecurity roles into

That's not needed if you happen to have a live sts session with the appropriate permissions to create a new account in an aws organization.

Good consideration but I still think there’s an uptick. This is all AI generated as I’m not in a spot to do anything more at the moment but this is a chart of ‘linux kernel’ CVEs rated as high/critical correlated with NVD. https:/

I just did some analysis on this last weekend, in 2024 there were roughly 100 CVEs published every day. In April we hit approximately 200 per day. Going backwards from 2023, the doubling interval for published CVEs was approximately 4 to 4
