JSON is okay most of the time, but I loath YAML. How many Kubernetes administration headaches trace back to the need for automated systems to surgically edit YAML? It’s absurd and …

Enterprise adds IAM, logging, and analytics, all of which AWS provides for free or for metered usage without needing an enterprise plan.

If you are paying API rates (not using Max subscriptions) there's no reason to use Anthropic's API directly, the same models are hosted by both AWS and Google with better uptime th…

Looks very neat. You may want to optimize the content serving a bit, since it's currently hotlinking multiple large (30MB) videos at 2K resolution from https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov .

AWS and GCP both have their own custom inference chips, so a better example for hosting Opus on commodity hardware would be Digital Ocean.

https://react-aria.adobe.com is the new Radix, it provides unstyled components with a heavy focus on accessibility and quality. https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui is the new Shad…

I use it via the Kilo Code extension for VSCode, which is invoking Qwen3-Coder via a Cerebras Code subscription. https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode https://www.cerebras.ai/blog/i…

Sonnet/Claude Code may technically be "smarter", but Qwen3-Coder on Cerebras is often more productive for me because it's just so incredibly fast . Even if it takes more LLM calls …

SlateDB offers different durability levels for writes. By default writes are buffered locally and flushed to S3 when the buffer is full or the client invokes flush(). https://slate…

While your technical analysis is excellent, making judgements about workload suitability based on a Preview release is premature. Preview services have historically had significant…

Grok are the first models I am boycotting on purely environmental grounds. They built their datacenter without sufficient local power supply and have been illegally powering it wit…

Reading about mainframes feels very much like reading science fiction. Truly awesome technology that exists on a completely different plane of computing than anything else.

This thinly veiled advertisement claims it's a waste of time to understand the tradeoffs in the models you're using, and you should instead pay them to make those decisions for you…

Forcing Twitter to make public posts easily accessible is not at all the same as compelling Apple to hand over your private messages.

Per the ongoing Freedesktop discussion, AWS offered to host but Freedesktop is leaning towards self-hosting on Hetzner so they can control their own destiny and sponsors can contri…

Same for me, I use "ar " in Intellij all the time.

Because they own the CDN and most of the bandwidth is from peering, so it essentially costs them nothing. Netlify on the other hand has to pay per GB to AWS.

Note: This is type stripping only, no transpilation / code generation is done.

Both these issues can be resolved by adding some sample code to context to influence the LLM to do the desired thing. As the op says, LLMs are going to be biased towards doing the …

Counterpoint: I also used to fix Lexmark printers as a field tech servicing pharmacies. It was routine to see Lexmark MS711dn printers with page counts in the millions. They did no…

After years of Python and TypeScript, I've started using Java as my default for everything. It's just so much more productive. The ancient developer memes that Java is slow and clu…

See also: EDI / EDIFACT / ANSI X12. It was supposed to standardize the way businesses exchange data, but every company implements it differently so integrations take forever, and t…

Wikileaks released DNC's internal emails, where they made plans to sabotage Bernie. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/23/us/politics/dnc-emails-sa... Bernie supporters filed a lawsui…

Counterpoint: Hyundai/Kia has a terrible reputation in the car industry and was probably willing to give Waymo more favorable terms than any other manufacturer. Ford and GM are wor…
