    I must be the odd man out but I am not a fan of uv. 1. It tries to do too many things. Please just do one thing and do it well. It's simultaneously trying to replace pip, pyenv, vi…

    I've been doing software for 25 years and just had to look up SDLC ;).

    Does anyone actually believe this is the full story? It has one primary source: her parents. It says clearly in the article that she violated the terms of her visa according to ICE…

    Interesting project. What makes this an agent? Just looks like an image transform that uses LLMs.

    Disagree. It's only the author's fault. We can't expect engineers to write code and find every last bug in other people's code especially when PRs can be thousands of lines to revi…

    Why use this over Meltano?

    Very interesting product! I consider myself pretty financially literate, but I had no idea what an "expense ratio" was for certain. I assumed it meant fees but I had to look it up.…

    I used the GGML version of Whisper and I had to revert back to the PyTorch version released by OpenAI. The GGML version simply didn't work well even for the same model. I am assumi…

    And here is the response generated by GPT-3: This is a fictional but realistic interview with Leonardo Da Vinci based on his notebooks, and the biography by Walter Isaacson. His re…

    What is the difference between inheriting money and inheriting copyrighted works? One is a lump sum payment and the other is an annuity. They're viewed vastly differently, but they…

    We looked into switching to HipChat, but we're sticking with Skype. We really liked HipChat's interface and API, but there were a few negatives. 1) HipChat doesn't support audio on…

    He forgot 5) Write it in C/C++. 150M records is not that large and using Hadoop, which is generally used for I/O bound problems, seems like overkill. A lot of these problems can be…

    I haven't, but I wouldn't be surprised if I did.

    I'm actually doing the opposite. Up until a year ago I didn't drink coffee or any other caffeinated beverages. In fact, I really didn't understand why people liked coffee as the ta…

    I doubt Brad spent much time on this. If you notice, it's powered by "SocialEngine", which got its seed funding from TechStars where Brad is a mentor.

    I've seen the inverse of this, though. For example, I estimated it would take me a couple days to do finish one part of a project, but I told the PM one week. She in turn multiplie…

    All social networks suffer from 90/10 rule (90% of the content is generated by 10% of the users), so this really isn't surprising. Other posters have mentioned this as well, but I …

    So what's the incentive to promote your app past $1,000 in revenue?

    Vision is a word I don't like and gets thrown around a lot. It's not quantifiable. If you are a non technical co-founder you need to be able to bring in the money. That means you'r…

    I think this is a bad move and an example of feature creep. Were users really asking for this? The problem was that the stream was overloaded with irrelevant projects you may have …
