Is vast.ai reliable for production inference where downtime is important?

You can modify this one to do that - or write your own using the same approach: https://github.com/danielgross/localpilot

Copilot doesn't continuously update your code when you make changes.

Musk is an engineer. Engineers want impact, not power.

My reading is the server with zsync can be any http server, client is zsync. Rsync on the other hand needs to use rsync on the server, and it scales badly because it does most work…

Came here to find the thread discussing this. You stated what I'd think is the conventional wisdom and I expected this to be the top thread. However, this thinking comes at the cos…

Partisia | Aarhus, Denmark or REMOTE | https://www.partisiablockchain.com Do you want to build the next generation internet platform? Blockchains with smart contract support (like …

Great resource, I'd missed a few goodies. https://javascript.info is similarly good in teaching modern Javascript. I wish there was such a resource for modern C++ though. I learned…

Network latency is not accounted for: they use AWS lambda calling DynamoDB / Redis in the same data center; Fauna endpoint is somewhere else. Curious what Firebase latency would be…

Abstraction discovery is a hard problem in general. Good names help, but there's probably more we can do. Tooling finding a common pattern that the abstraction eliminates, perhaps?…

You should be able to take your personal webpage off archive.org if you don't want it there. I think the mechanism is via the current robots.txt file.

It's no really about experience but rather about the ability to reason from first principles. Lots of developers with experience don't even attempt doing something because the stru…

Ansible is pretty declarative actually, it won't repeat tasks that are already performed if it can figure it out.

Could you share the source for this? It's very useful for understanding the situation.

AFAIK there exist cryptographic protocols that can authenticate you without revealing the password to the server. They aren't standard though.

Lambda is not suitable for certain workloads. It's impossible to know what is the problem in this particular case from the details provided by the author. I can give some common ex…

> The kind of architectural surgery required to address this is correctly seen as something you can't upstream to the main open source code base. Why is this?

Still feels like it could be an OTA update in a Tesla. The "car world" needs to change and change has begun.

It's certainly task-dependent at least to some extent. If the task at hand is to fix a zillion spelling errors in the UI, there is certainly no 10x variance in programmer's ability…
