    They have support for long format and the industry is already attempting long shots with Seedance 2.0 which cannot be efficiently done without drift in other leading models like Kl…

    Happy to see an open weight model ! This has all the right ingredients for success.

    Thank you! Jetstream looks useful. For a platform which is production our Redis costs are getting prohibitively high. I was on the look for alternatives and perhaps in the software…

    Wow! I have a stupid question - as I understand NATS works very well as a “message” pipe/bus. Anyway to get Redis type cache functionality as well ? Is it something possible ?

    We are in the same decision making stage and trying to choose between rabitMQ, Kafka, NATS and some solutions built on top of Redis. Did NATS eventually worked well?

    Not sure whether this is the right step. Rather steps must be taken to ensure reliability of the software irrespective of whether it’s “written” or “generated”. The code generation…

    The leader boards based on token usage happened in our org for a month. Then we managed to convince the board that what matters is the reliable software shipped. Now we are back to…

    How to prove this is indeed the system prompt against a certain timestamp (in the past ) ?

    Very useful. The whisper setup is something similar to what we have been using. The LLM setup though is outstanding.

    This type of attack is going on for few years now. I had 2 in my credit. Some details https://freebird.in/malicious-code-source-code-shared-via-jo...

    Will cursor launch a CLI tool like Claude/codex/opencode/pi ?

    I assume your idea is, if the spec and the proof is verified the code generated is good enough as well ?

    I have been testing formal verification methods with multiple products. It will be great to also understand more about what’s tried and how it was done. For example attempting to v…

    It’s impossible to write a spec that’s not ambiguous , complete and correct in natural languages. Thus prompts will always generate unreliable software.

    IMHO even if we are using auditing tools I believe we must use deterministic tools for critical analysis like this. Such rule and pattern based systems may not scale beyond certain…

    I tried building a deliberately vague project around managing MCP servers [0]. The purpose was to find what LLMs and agents can do. While the project didn’t reach anywhere I was am…

    False positives from the deterministic audits a very difficult problem to address. Comparing and deduplicating across different methods or LLM audits seems to the only way.

    I think these audit tools can look beyond just security and can look for compliance audits as well. The ability to audit real targets in staging environments makes it easy to ident…
