    Still exploring different options but at the moment I run a daemon on each node that connects via iroh to link the nodes (and NAT traversal). Once the link is established the nodes…

    Funny. I started working on a similar product myself just a few days ago. I have multiple machines for multiple different purposes. Each one runs different agents (some local, some…

    Hard to avoid spoilers here but Vernor Vinge hits on pretty much exactly this in A Fire Upon the Deep . Though he's interested less in the hard sci-fi aspects of how/why and more o…

    That’s a fair point. I wouldn’t want to take machine god’s proclamations on faith either. I’d prefer it if the knowledge was always within our grasp. There is also a possible middl…

    Been kicking around a similar idea in the back of my mind from the first moment "functional core / imperative shell" [0] and "sans-IO" [1] infected my brain. I've been chasing that…

    You're not wrong, but if I'm talking to a Chinese Room, I'm still going to use pronouns and all sorts of meatbag-specific language. It doesn't matter if there really is a real pers…

    My gut reaction is "I wish they'd just get to the point". Tbf some people would probably react the same way to my issue thread on the bug that I hit [0]. [0]: https://github.com/mn…

    This thread will become a typical "haha slop company made slop" but I've been bitten by a bug exactly like this before in a (pre-AI, artisan) OSS project. The maintainer there didn…

    GP wasn’t asking how you gauge their tone. They were asking how would you classify the tone of the comment they were replying to . The implication being “I wasn’t the first with a …

    Eventually even a system like that can be gamed, similarly to how Leetcode-maxxing and the like sprung up in response to typical SV interview questions. Studying for the job become…

    We just set all the lints to `warn` by default then `RUSTFLAGS="--deny warnings"` when building for release (or in CI).

    This year, some members of the Rust Programming Language Community Server on Discord set out to solve AoC in under 1ms. I'm pleased to announce that through the use of LUTs, SIMD, …

    Incredibly detailed and fun read! I love love love seeing this kind of performance analysis. IMO one of the most fun and creative areas of programming is finding new avenues to squ…

    Reminds me of one of my favourite video essays -- "Everything is a Remix" [0]. The video and this article cover the same ideas albeit with different examples. Which is funny on a m…

    Is this meaningfully different from Conductor (which they archived a while back)? Browsing through the code I see quite a few similarities. Plus the use of JSON as the workflow def…
