What if S3 could be a fast, globally synced, Key Value Database? That's Tigris(fly.io)

I'm pretty sure they mean HDDs as they write hard disks in each paragraph below.

Off topic, but has anyone used HVM? What do you use it for? It seems like a very interesting project with quite a steep learning curve, given interaction nets look like a whole new way of thinking.

That's fair. Perhaps a good future idea would be to benchmark between bundling it in the Docker image, vs. using Fly Volumes as Simon suggested in a sibling comment.

You're right! Thanks for pointing this out. I don't know Docker that well. I literally figured it out as I went along to deploy on Fly...

I am guessing that it would be possible to download the model from HuggingFace in the build step. I'm not sure though. Plus the Cog image is 14GB in size (mentioned in the article), I hope there's a way to reduce that.

Is the 100 MB model being downloaded from HuggingFace on Fly too? I ask this because Fly has immutable Docker containers which wouldn't store any data unless you use Fly Volumes. So it could be that Fly is downloading the 100MB model e

I would like to point out that Tigris has this feature called shadow buckets which, with one extra flag: `--shadow-write-through` also writes back to the source bucket. So if you're worried about reliability, or simply want to use two

Further, I wish they added support to make multiple virtual monitors from macOS Workspaces, like what happens today when you attach another monitor. Switching workspaces can be bound to keys in the Keyboard Settings. Moving windows to other

Thanks! I'll try it out soon. Looks exactly what I wanted, including the feature to order variants automatically (`dark:sm:... -> sm:dark:...` from the repo's readme).

Does anyone know if it's possible to get Tailwind class sorting in Elixir Phoenix HEEX templates. It would be a great addition to the Elixir formatter. Maybe we could write a formatter plugin in Elixir that does the same thing if this

Hey I'm guessing by Calibre CLI you mean to do something like manage your book collection, but if all you want to do is convert books, Calibre does come with a CLI called `ebook-convert`. It works with many file formats like epub, pdf,

They did the same recently with Filmic [0], of the Filmic Pro iOS Camera app. I guess this is what the exact opposite of acqui-hire looks like. Acquire only for the app's customers, and their currently ongoing subscriptions, and nothin

Can you give a few more details on the flaky nature of R2? Does it lose files? Fails to write but gives an error? Fails to read sometimes? Silently fails?

Where do you keep the air quality sensor? I suspect that if you keep it away from the purifier, and closer to where you sit in the room, it's a more real representation of the air quality. Usually the air around the purifier would be p

I bought this air purifier after reading this article and researching more. The biggest advantage of this air purifier compared to others on the market is its cost of replacing the air filter. It's significantly cheaper than others. I

It may have been a pain 2001, but it certainly was much better than Windows XP to install around 2006 or 2007, I remember. I had an IBM R51 (many years old at that point), which used to take 2 hours+ to install Windows XP, and it was always

I've been using Zed for the last few months as my secondary driver. Still miss some features that I really find helpful in VSC, such as showing the Tailwind class on hover in Elixir LiveView code, but apart from that, Zed is really goo

I absolutely agree! I finally went in that direction. The only reason I was trying this whole ordeal was because I was trying to get some private dependencies included in the build without going through the whole hassle of git submodules. N

Thanks. I can confirm that this works. Compiling a new project no longer segfaults, and `Mix.install()` works in `iex` too.

by timenova 3y ago
You're right that Elixir source code compiles to BEAM bytecode, however, if you run `mix release`, you need to ensure that the release runs on the same target OS and OpenSSL version. My aim was to build a `mix release` on my M1 Mac to

YMMV, but from my own experiments, on an M1 Macbook Air, it did not work well for me. I was trying to compile an Elixir codebase on x86-64 Alpine Linux. Elixir does not have cross-compiling. I tried it in a Docker container, and in a Linux

I remember Safari had a flag for WebGPU a year or two ago. I even tried some samples and it seemed to work. Does anyone know why they removed it in the middle? IIRC Safari had the flag too that time, not just the Technical Preview.

Thanks for the detailed reply! Looking forward to more storage-related announcements and the blog posts.

I believe that's exactly what GitHub Copilot does. It first scans and indexes your entire codebase including dependencies (I think). So when it auto-completes, it heavily uses the context of your code, which actually makes Copilot so u
