> SQLite definitely seems like a poor choice for dealing with many concurrent requests Can you qualify "many"? SQLite easily handles 100k+ writes per second and it's not hard to have app layer code serialize and batch writ

There are a ton of optimization opportunities that hinge on the intent of a piece of code which static compilers can never detect at scale. LLMs can actually navigate that and write surprisingly optimal assembly. I've had all my side

There is an amount of brute forcing that becomes possible at those speeds that I think could even take us beyond 80%. If we could have Qwen3.6-27B running at 15k t/s, run 100 attempts concurrently, select top-K solutions and synthesize

Will include in next month's thread! Finally getting it where I want after a year of hacking so it seems time to think about how I want to open it up.

Nothing public yet but hopefully will have for next month's thread!

Building a new Smalltalk VM from scratch that better utilizes modern hardware (full multicore support) and a web-based system browser so I can develop with it remotely.

That really, really depends on the language.

You're not wrong. I did a similar agent in lisp back with Sonnet 3.5 and had a wow moment, but the wow was mostly for seeing an agent working effectively at all at that point in time. The part that killed it for me was losing everythin

Why does having. GC mean not thinking about memory? I think about memory constantly in GC languages because I still want it to perform well. The biggest difference is the failure modes. If I'm not thinking about memory, my RSS is hig

Can anyone explain this "quietly quantized" model idea to me from a business perspective? Coca-Cola doesn't "quietly water down" its product to save a few bucks. They know people will take a sip, say "oh that&#

check out tsnet if you are building on tailscale anyways. your app can then be a tailnet node that can read tailnet WhoIs data and have access controlled via tailnet ACL

Really depends what you're working on. GLM 5.2 is doing excellent webdev work for me but really faffed up when working on a custom garbage collector that Opus has no problems with.

> LLMs do not produce a usable result At this point, this is categorically false. Your mental model is very out of date. The results may not be ideal but I can't say I've had a single output so far this year that wasn't u

Emphasis on the modern CSS. @layer, @scope, etc. go a long way in fixing the footguns.

I'm actually very happy about this. Babysitting the agent just in case it needs me to do something is a terrible use of my time. I've always had to be very explicit about the various ways that it can get an automated feedback loop

Generally you don't even need to do the sub-routing in the handler. You can just render the entire page and have `hx-select` attributes pluck out the part that you want.

Why on earth would you spend any time at all convincing an agent of anything? You say "just do it" and off it goes.
