I totally get the tradeoffs, but that's not what I'm talking about. For example the popular Hey article was 10 years into their operations and they were spending multiple millions with AWS. That's not a startup anymore, and t

It's just the meme of the year. There's nothing that changed really for quite a long time. Some cloud services provide things on a simplistic and easy way, some in complex and complete ecosystem. The same choice and the tradeoffs

If you want to say up to date at a slower pace, find a good aggregator to check from time to time. Maybe it's HN, maybe daily.dev, sdtimes (they have a podcast), infoq, or fireship. But in reality - how much of this do you need? I stay

That's not as accurate as flipping a coin. It's a certain success or a probabilistic failure. A random coin flip could get you the wrong answer either way. But here, if someone confesses to something, you can be sure it's tru

The US already has the "confiscate and sue the money" legal loophole process for robbing people at random, without heaving to charge the people with anything. Yay civil forfeiture.

I don't think many other countries have that combination of "don't care if others know" approach and level of state sponsorships. China really seems to do some spray and pray attacking private companies too. Same for Rus

MCP is not the only tool calling protocol. And once you write the implementations they're trivial to port to something else.

That's a whole area called "attribution". There's usually lots of breadcrumbs and people taking to each other about their findings. It goes down to silly things like many state sponsored hackers working 9-5. And having t

Nah, the name fits perfectly. Guardrails are there to stop you from serious damage if you lose control and may get off the track. They won't stop you if you're explicitly trying to get off the road, at speed, in as heavy vehicle a

Honestly - no. To use selinux you need to commit to actually learning how it works and experimenting a bit. I don't think there's an easier way than reading both redhat ( https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentatio

The next model will be trained away from samples that classify as AI and the cycle will go on. LLMs are good at things like that. People do that on purpose to match a given style or type of behaviour https://en.wikipedia.org&#x2F

We need more selinux and sandbox-exec in daily dev lives. There's no reason to bring a whole new system along just to restrict some access.

Successes are still visible... But maybe we'd be ok with fewer successes and fewer failures?

Sounds good? I mean, we tried the whole corporation without responsibility for quite a while. It doesn't seem to work very well and especially on HN there's at least one post reminding us of that every day.

It's more than that. They have both their own completion model and now agentic one. It's not a basic fine-tune, because it's faster than anything else available out there, so there's something interesting in the architec

Interesting, I haven't seen it actually return nonsense yet. (Some incorrect things and getting into thinking loops, but always coherent) I'm running it on a latest llama.cpp with the bf16 gguf. What are you using?

Breaks as in think block contains nonsense or the output finishes? I've had some thinking weirdness which doesn't seem to affect the final answer much. Overall it still seems extremely good for its size and I wouldn't expect
