    The OpenCode devs talk about this on Twitter a lot, e.g. https://xcancel.com/thdxr/status/2048268697790300343 > tool call pruning breaks cache and people will tell you this is horr…

    Again, did you read the order? The judge's order explicitly said this would be legal and cites the law permitting it, then goes on to explain why this action did not satisfy it: > …

    They can say "sorry Palantir, we will only sign a contract with you if you commit not to use Claude to provide services" and then Palantir is free to decide if they want to accept …

    Did you read the order? It directly addresses your comment: > More importantly, as discussed above, no one is entitled to conduct business with the Federal Government, see Perkins,…

    It essentially depends on how many back-and-forth calls are required. If the model returns a request for multiple calls at once, then the reply can contain all responses and you on…

    That's correct. Input caching helps, but even then at e.g. 800k tokens with all of them cached, the API price is $0.50 * 0.8 = $0.40 per request, which adds up really fast. A "requ…

    An interesting thing to understand about Klarna and other buy-now-pay-later products is that a major part of their profit is the very high merchant fees they charge; retailers have…

    I am doing this between two UM890 Pros. It was easy to set up and I have had no issues over many months, but I "only" get ~11.6 Gbps between them. This seems to match other reports…

    The main other problem is that the kernel doesn't register default signal handlers for signals like SIGTERM if the process is PID 1. So if your process doesn't register its own sig…

    This is a neat visualization. It makes me want to build something like this with actual screenshots (scraping from places like old forums, image hosting sites, etc.) rather than we…

    This is not true, SES uses tracking pixels which are blocked if you disable external images: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/dg/faqs-metrics.html#...

    Fortunately my home office has an abundance of both power and network access (especially compared to the scarce resource of human attention!) Why insist on being so negative? It's …

    Knowing you will get paid back (i.e. credit worthiness) is part of it, but another part is that the currency holds its value, and the global demand for dollars is an important part…

    Sorry but your point is just completely wrong and I am not sure why you have this belief. It is extremely normal and safe to backup SQLite via block device or filesystem snapshots.…

    Isn't "monopolies suppress competition" one of the classic reasons people think they should be broken up? I'm not saying you have to agree with that theory, but just observing a cu…

    It would probably be more accurate to say that LastPass has the information to decrypt your vault if they can guess your password. By contrast 1Password would need to both guess yo…

    LastPass does not use the secret key concept that 1Password uses, it only uses a key derived from your password. After the breach they rushed to increase the hash iterations [1] an…
