    Just use Cloudflare Workers. Incredibly fast, super cheap and stable and very mature.

    And yet here here we all are taking about it. Art is about inciting a response, and he’s done it. Whether we think he’s a hack or not is irrelevant - he has the world’s attention.

    Show HN: Idea File for LLM Cycling Coach

    This is heavily inspired by Andrej Karpathy's LLM Wiki, and could be used to create many other types of "Agentic Apps" or however you want to call them. My specific implementation …

    And that’s where my hopes vanish. A dictator-wannabe that has a track record of not respecting the peaceful transition of power in _his own_ country and has run his entire campaign…

    What we’ve been living through in the last 28 years is Chavismo and yet Chavez is not around. When Chavez died in 2013 we celebrated that he was gone, and what we got after was muc…

    Venezuelan here. It’s not that simple: Maduro was an _absolutely_ horrible dictator and yes many Venezuelans (myself included, and likely many of the 8+ million that left) are over…

    This post follows the general, highly academic/dogmatic, tone that I’ve seen when certain folks talk about REST. Most of the article talks about what _not_ to do, and has very litt…

    Anyone can say anything on YouTube. I think you’re confusing confirmation bias with “citing your sources”.

    UUIDs are very wasteful [1]. For most use cases you can replace them with much shorter strings and still have very low chances of collisions [2] [1] https://henvic.dev/posts/uuid/ …

    Just fyi, the person that replied wasn't just "someone" at Cloudflare. It was Kenton Varda (kentonv here). He's the creator of Cloudflare workers, he's an incredible engineer.

    If you can run this using ollama, then you should be able to use https://www.continue.dev/ with both IntelliJ and VSCode. Haven’t tried this model yet - but overall this plugin wor…

    I've been using co-pilot as well as Claude (Sonnet 3-3.5) and ChatGPT (4-4o) since the beginning of the year with somewhat mixed success. My general take is that, at least so far, …

    I’d take a slightly different perspective. I’d like to think that these tools are in some ways “humanizing” - we can offload things that we’re not particularly good at (like memori…

    Paperspace is a great way to go for this. You can start by just using their notebook product (similar to Collab), and you get to pick which type of machine/GPU it runs on. Once you…

    It just needs to be clarified that KL divergence isn’t a proper mathematical norm, so it doesn’t behave the way we intuitively think a distance should. As mentioned, it doesn’t sat…

    One intuition is that KL-divergence represents a sort of “distance” between probability distributions. However, this isn’t quite right as it doesn’t satisfy some basic properties a…

    Redis Streams is a pretty good lightweight replacement for Kafka. Of course, what Kafka gets you are durability, being able to pick among at-least-once, at-most-once and exactly-on…

    Cloudflare already does this ( https://www.cloudflare.com/products/cloudflare-stream/ ) I'd be willing to bet that Cloudflare TV is built on top of their Stream infrastructure.

    This style of analysis has the implicit assumption that the timeline of confirmed cases is accurate. Despite the infection growing visbly rapidly in NY, it could be argued that inc…
