Meta wants the models to be cheap and available because their strength is the context data and platform control.

When allocating engineering spend you need to predict impact. If you know how features of GitHub CLI are used and how you can do this more easily.

Interesting - I had not looked deep into this before. Is suppose the difference is RDS has high 9s, whereas in the Litestream case the frequency of crashes is tied to your application code and deployment process. In practice this will take

There are also atomic references when mutability is the best approach. This is forcing single writer but in the API rather than as a proof.

Yes but there is still a (small) window where confirmed writes can be lost

Please can you link to the relevant guarantees? I did read the documentation just today so clearly misunderstood something!

My understanding is litestream can lose data if a crash occurs before the backup replication to object storage. This makes it an unfair comparison to a Postgres in RDS for example?

A well designed system shouldn’t drop orders? If you perform at least once processing then use Stripe idempotency keys you avoid such issues?

It was a fun read but I don’t understand the cult following this book has.

Sodium (and the book that goes with it) is a great resource too https://github.com/SodiumFRP/sodium

Something massless and devoid of information can travel faster than light How can such a thing be detected? And without detection how can speed be measured?

Is this similar to Unison scratch file driven development?

> One of the biggest knocks against Rust as a systems programming language is that it has weak compile-time and metaprogramming capabilities compared to Zig and C++. Aren’t Rust macros more powerful than C++ template metaprogramming in p

Docker is enough in practice no?

Congrats to the team! Is there a video showing someone spinning this up and finding a bug in a simple app? A broken counter app maybe?

Ultimately you need staging, yes. But you can’t have every dev tweaking staging at the same time as they work. How can you debug things when the ground is shifting beneath you? Ideally every dev has their own AWS account to play with, but t

My bad, meant USBC - used to have Lightning

I agree but stuck with Apple ecosystem. I like the cheap wired lightning headphones they do. The audio quality is acceptable on public transit, they’re cheap enough to lose and the mic is surprisingly good. Weirdly if Apple stopped making t

But those are close to deterministic.

GitHub has their own study using Copilot but given the obvious conflict of interest I would discount it.

With MonoGame you are supposed to use an editor for creating assets that you then load into the engine built by MonoGame. Or you build your own editor using MonoGame. MonoGame is quite different from editor-centric system like Unity and not

by rienbdj 7mo ago
Yep. MonoGame is closer to RayLib than Godot. In fact RayLib has C# bindings so worth considering these two.

FNA is for porting /supporting XNA games with minimal changes. MonoGame is trying to evolve XNA in small ways. For a new project I would pick MonoGame.

A handful of start ups will find genuine use cases for these models with real business demand. It just won’t be another AI travel agent chat bot.

Leave them with an old Toshiba and an Ubuntu cd. Good luck kid.
