I am surprised at the number of people who think this has no market. If this improves employee productivity by 10%, this would be a great buy for many companies. Personally, I'll buy this in an instant if this measurably improves over

Good to see NativeAOT getting positive press. Go won because it served a need felt by many programmers: a garbage-collected language which compiled to native code, with robust libraries supported by a large corp. With Native AOT, C# is walk

Docker swarm would have worked for 98.5% of all users (how k8s won over swarm should be a case study). And kamal, or some thing like it, would work for 88.25% of all users.

Very cool project, and great for many usecases. In absolute performance, I find it about 16x slower than CPU [1], but it'd still be super fast compared to the full Linux GUIs we were using comfortably in the 90s/2000s on slower CP

I'm totally fine with this, but I wish they would do the same thing with Apple. Google's platform, at the very least is open and I can run my own apps. One could ask, "How is Apple a Monopoly, and do they abuse that position?

He worked on Mono for nearly two decades, and contributed significantly to the platform. He may have stopped working on it because the platform is quite mature (and Open Source) and his continued work would have limited impact.

Bluesky's biggest asset is the technical leadership team. Using Paul Frazee's (and Daniel Holmgren's - though I never actively used IPFS) work is like living in the far out future. Is it still too early? Time will tell.

In my view, an escape hatch if we are truly stuck would be radical speed ups (like Cerebras) in compute time. If we get outputs in milli-seconds instead of seconds and at much lower costs, it would make backtracking viable. This won't

There are some advantages. 1) Cost. More people have ChatGPT/Claude than CoPilot. And it's cheaper to load large contexts into ChatGPT than into the API. For example, o1-preview is $15/million tokens. And it's a fixed $2

I prefer web apps to native apps any day. However, web apps are limited by what they can do. But what they can do is not consistent - for example, it can take your picture and listen to your microphone if you give permissions; but it can&#x
