We do know, because we used to have some Claude models identifying as Deepseek when prompted in Chinese

I feel like in a few more years and 2-3 major versions C# will have all the useful features of F#. It will also keep being much more exciting because our benevolent corporate visio…

Zero that we know of

Bandwidth/GPU real estate in terms of area. Biggest GDDR7 chips are 3GB 32-bit, it has 512bit wide bus. And even this is going to moonlight as a space heater

Also, our defaults are opposite of safe (most of the languages are still mutable by default, rigorous type systems wildly unpopular, there is a straightforward way to concatenate s…

The difference is negligible on 2x 4090. There are more important differences like 4 bit KV cache.

I'm sorry. They were not, it was the joke from OP

Guid partition table. Older of GPT brothers, more of a blue collar guy

English isn't my first language either, and I know how confusing it can be, so let me help here. Here is the quote from the post: "If crypto people feel that the losses are because…

Fuck, I mean… yeah. Thanks for one more insight, by showing me that sending message/calling a method is a binary operation, seems so obvious but I never made that connection. This …

This is fantastically written documentation. What is even more exciting for me, that this is almost exactly what I was dreaming and talking non-stop about for the last few years. I…

I would have to respectfully disagree with you on the serializers part here. For me, after decades of fighting with “magic” stuff, simplicity is the key feature. So, everything tha…

The combination of caching Postgres queries (because you are making over 30 of them per page), but still deploying everything to 6 distributed regions is just perfect chef's kiss

In a more broad way — it’s also a tax on conscience. Bonkers.

It is, for people who think that the chance of meeting dinosaur on the street is 50% (you either do or don’t) /s

I have no idea, but isn’t it the usual real-world case of “it’s complicated, and it’s both”?

Go is just shitty Pascal, change my mind. On a more serious note. I decided to read Delphi documentation recently because I’m old enough to hear a lot about it, but not quite old e…

Oh man. Are you me? Thanks for that comment. For me functional programming was just like a “missing link”. Wait, I can just code like I think, not in this weird statefull way? It’s…

They voluntarily withdrew their bid, because all 29 of the remaining Atlas 5 rockets (not built afaik, just planned and have engines ready in storage somewhere in Alabama) are alre…

This has to be the most insane take I’ve ever read. There is no shortage of would-be fossil fuel producers if the price is high enough. Norway, on the other hand, by restricting co…

I think I successfully avoided writing for loops in application code for the last 3 years. I don’t miss them.

Wait. I always use logarithm for this kind of tasks, how exactly does it make me incompetent and terrible? This is literally what logarithm represents?

Fantastic. Knowing that my data was validated before being lost makes it so much better.

Yes they are, but it's not about being novel. Parser combinators are abstraction, and damn good one: they are easily composable, reusable, and what's most important approachable ev…
