We discovered a bug in AWS Bedrock that is double counting cache writes when thinking/reasoning is enabled for the Anthropic models. It’s not clear to me if this is limited to just…

What is the better solution you’ve moved on to?

This is the way. As others mention opening window is your cheapest option, but you lose a lot of your heating and cooling efficiency. We installed a whole house ERV for about $10K …

I remember KoolBear from playing on Kali. That brings back good memories.

Hang in there. I’ve had the same challenge. Take some time off and burn through any energy accumulated taking care family in just a few days. Best I’ve found is to try and keep thi…

I wonder if there is a case to be made for a patch branch that gets all PRs. Then the maintainer can do any further tweaks needed before merging down to mainline.

HN with an RSS reader is the way to go. No need to compulsively check and you can skim through things quickly.

Another way to look at it is you are expected to include business factors into your decision making. Sometimes the most optimal engineering solution is not the most optimal busines…

Have you considered looking at Amazon for their ARM offering (Graviton)? I'd be hesistant to use M1 minis for a production workflow as they are not really production grade (lacking…

It sounds like you just don’t enjoy frontend work. If you are trying to build a product on your own it’s impossible to avoid, but there are plenty of companies in the EU and US hir…

It's funny I have a logitech cam at the top of my monitor, which effectively covers the exact same space as this new notch. The bezels on monitors have gotten so thin it's tough to…

I get the use case, but I just can’t get behind using software like this for security reasons. It’s too easy to add users to slack, leading to accidentally exposing secrets.

Having worked remote before the pandemic I found having my camera on was a very good reminder to the team that I was still there. Increasing your visibility when you are one of a f…

Idiomatic scala yes, but while on boarding engineers hit many cases, where they ended up returning null in places they shouldn’t.

Somebody has used Scala

I had to switch back to drip for this very reason. I compensated by getting a good grinder and a solid whole bean subscription.

I think having a zero P0 and P1 bug policy makes sense. As others have said some bugs may not make business sense to fix. I do think it is useful to set thresholds for other bug pr…

Type inference is super handy in a lot of places. The problem I've run into in the rust book and other intro docs is they almost always use type inference, which makes it harder to…

That's fair. When I say appreciate, I mean the results of the grind. Washing Dishes or any type of cleaning isn't fun, but finding coping mechanisms (zoning out, music, etc...) you…

All jobs have some amount of grind. Being able to acknowledge its going to suck and push through it quickly can be super beneficial to your career. It's also one of the reasons why…

The best advice I can give is to stop attaching yourself to a specific language. Having expertise in a language can be great, but you are going to be better served by demonstrating…

I wonder if it makes sense to create a new uri scheme for local https access. Something along the lines of locals:// , which would receive different treatment by browsers.

I think the main issue is that beyond the very basic examples the new Docker 1.12 swarm features aren't really production ready. At this point there is a significant amount of tool…
