I think that's a very unfair characterization. The Valkey fork happened due to licensing changes in Redis in early 2024.

As someone who runs a small dev agency, I'm very interested in research like this. Let's say some Doctor decides to vibecode an app on the weekend, with next to 0 exposure to softw…

I've done the same, with both design/planning docs as well as code changes, and have the same experience as you. It's better than Opus 4.5 as well. GPT 5.2 is on another level for …

Anecdotally, Azure OpenAI is a big player in the mid sized enterprise market and up. Lots of corps want to use OpenAI models, and the easiest way to onboard is to just spin up Azur…

The main benefit most people see right away is the Pydantic integration & it requires less boiler plate for basic API's. Ninja is essentially FastAPI + Django. I prefer Ninja over …

Agreed on this point, I don't want to be subsidizing insurance or paying for multi millionaires homes to be rebuilt. I truly feel bad for the people who lost their homes, it's awfu…

I thought it was pretty bad. It made Napoleon out to be uncharismatic and a total "simp" as the kids would say towards Josephine. He just comes off as a war monger Dictator who is …

It gets worse after that, the first two episodes were definitely the strongest imo.

I've done that plenty of times in Kerbal : ) Was funny to see in reality, it matched up quite closely to my Kerbal experience.

I've been leveling up since I started as a helpdesk rep at 18, becoming a Windows sysadmin, then a junior dev, and now a senior dev. College was not an option for me for reasons to…

I saw this effect directly in Eve Online. In the early days there was a lot of experimenting with how exactly to organize these large groups of players. Some groups tried democracy…

Cliff, I just wanted to take a moment to say that The Cuckoo's Egg was formative in my youth and was definitely one of things that led me into getting into IT and programming. You …

YT TV DVR is best in class in my experience. You can set it to record every NCAA men's basketball game that ever airs if you want, or just your team etc.

He left MS within the last year and is at Google now. He was a technical fellow at MS for the past number of years, which is their technical track equivalent of a Senior VP.

> (Truly anything, I live next to a 15-story concrete castle apartment building that a developer built on what was once a trailer park). Ah, the good ol' Grandville castle. It bogg…

I am a pretty big SpaceX fan, but so far, they've been tackling challenges that lend themselves to a rapid iteration if given sufficient capital. Rapidly iterating on the incredibl…

I will never again interview for Amazon unless I am about to be evicted and they are the only one left in town. Interviewed for a senior dev role, went through all the rounds, took…

My guess is that moves will go down even further over the coming years. Anyone who bought or refinanced a home over the past decade would need a hell of a good reason to sell and b…

Happy paying customer here, and agreed. Their cost per search feels very high to me, but I don't know enough about the search space to know what is normal.

We don't ignore it, it's just very expensive to drill with current technology which limits the locations geo thermal can profitably operate in.

+1 on Ninja. Been using it on a number of projects the last 6 months, and its been a joy to use.

He also talks about how in a deglobalizing world the one power source most every nation has access to locally is coal. So you could see a reduction in industrial activity and consu…

I take it as him denying all of it. He lies all the time. His style of leadership to the rank and file is to provide a narrative they can buy into, and whether the facts fit that n…

Former somewhat notorious Eve player here who has met Mittani in meatspace. My bias is that I really, really dislike Mittani as a human being (and our in game groups were very clos…
