Will Cloudflare eventually open-source Pingora? I know there was a mention of open-sourcing it, but I haven't seen the code, which is a shame :/

I really like that for loops can be expressions. It seems obvious in hindsight, but hindsight is always 20/20 :)

Can someone confirm what intensity is high intensity? E.g, I have a rowing machine that leaves mildly out of breath and makes my heart beat quickly, is that HIIT? Or is HIIT more l…

I've used Prisma before, and I will note that there pace of feature development seemed mind numbingly slow for a company as large as they were. Entirely possible I'm missing a lot …

The good thing about all of this is that the law doesn't really matter. People will complain about copyright, but the tech is here and the law will follow. Does anyone really thing…

I'm curious, what the is the bend of nix for your dev env vs using a docker container with everything pre-installed

This makes sense but also seems very annoying to do? E.g let's say you are storing state in the URL, and now the user wants to save it to their profile. You need to upgrade the sta…

What is the reason structured logging is bad? I'm curious, as I felt like it made my life a lot easier.

I wonder if with Next.JS server components, we can just get rid of tRPC + trpc-sveltekit.

I was investigating doing a typescript compiler speedup. I think the time might have finally arrived where we can use ML to generate a faster compiler in a language like Zig. Proba…

I have a theory that in another decade ML models will do this better than any optimizing compiler -- similar to a hand written chess engine vs alpha go.

I'm a little more scared, I don't think a glorified Markov chain can -- for example -- explain monads in uwu speech. It understands things to a degree for sure.

Ask it "why is this wrong" or try some of the "let's think this through step by step" prefixes

All these people whining about copyright need to consider: is the issue Copilot, or is the issue copyright.

Humans are trained on petabytes of data. From birth, we ingest sights, sounds, smells etc. Imagine a movie of every second of your life. And an audio track of every second of your …

Wasmtime / WASI does this extremely well.

This doesn't make any sense in this context and I think you know it bud. I was making the point that stable diffusion != JPEG compression

By that case all art should be copyrighted since our brain stores a highly compressed version of everything we've seen. I wager 100 TB => 4GB is different from JPEG compression and…

To all people complaining about bugs: 1. It's easy to find flaws in hard, ambitious projects. All ambitious projects start out as WIPs. 2. It is much harder to do an ambitious proj…

How does this work with things like WASI--back when I did WASM things I recalled that WASM relies on imported functions for things like Io, etc. so what functions is the Docker run…

My hope (for codex, stable diffusion, etc.) is that the models become so popular that it will be impossible to legislate them for issues like copyright. I think there might be a li…

One thing I'm curious about is, fundamentally it looks like Zig is going to be the more popular language. I don't know why, but that's just my gut feel. It looks like Zig will get …

My guess is the true reason is that HN has many people who are scared of threats to their identity. Take for example all the comments about how AI won't be good enough. My best gue…
