The big problem is that raw SQL has pretty bad type inference and linting support in most editors. A query builder can still give you a lot of type safety benefits.

I mean the easiest explanation would be that the model harness doesn't always take the most likely token but does top-k sampling or similar. temperatur just means that probabilitie…

> One of the great drawbacks of "Cloud Native Computing" as it now exists is that it's really, really complicated. It is often more complicated than the old, non-cloud, sort of com…

OP wanted to set up a nested copmany structure. Instead of Person -> LLC it goes Person -> Limited Partnership --> LLC. The in between company is only for tax-efficiency and has no…

The question is, is that really only due to data center geo? I am always amazed how low latency and high quality Facetime between Europe Australia is. Seems like good engineering c…

Very unrelated: first time I see someone with the same last name as me in the tech community, it's somewhat odd :)

Async presumably happens in the JS runtime that bun calls into. Just need 1 thread to host that

If this works `git clone me@github.com:me/mine.git release_01 && ln -s release_01 /var/www/me/mine/current` then your Docker builds should also be extremely quick. Where I have see…

I always feel like I am taking crazy pills when I read these threads. The k8s API and manifests config feels like a create standardardized way to deploy containers. I wouldn't want…

I don't disagree that very numerical tasks like revenue forecasting are not a good fit for LLMs. But neither did a lot of data scientist concerns themselves with such things (compa…

Do those use cases need LLMs? Probably not. but if good results can be had with a day of prompting (in addition to the stuff mentioned in the article, which you have to do anyway) …

As others have mentioned, one big issue is that every company does these things differently and just because someone texts you a link doesn't mean it's phishing, even though it fee…

The average person self hosts literally nothing, why would it be different for inference? Which benefits severely from economies of scale and efficient 24/7 utlization

Ok but "Business Email" wasn't exactly invented yesterday...

I think people are mainly confused because the AirPod Pros are quite competitively priced compared to other higher end offerings. The Max are so far off the market that it doesn't …

Uff, COBOL written in Norwegian, talk about a narrow target to hit for hiring :)

I mean it's not like Stripe was founded yesterday. Stripe: 2010 Paypal: 1998 I'd argue that 99% of the "internet gdp" happened after Stripe was founded

I mean I know what it means but how can you corpo speak so hard that it's pretty much unclear what the change even is

We have an airtag in our cargo bike, connected to our ipad (neither my wife nor I have an Iphone). It never actually makes a sound and we can reliably track on the ipad. what gives…

Except of course rollout will not be atomic anyway and making changes in a single commit might lead Devs to make changes without thinking about backwards compat

Do you have a pixel? On Samsung you cannot share WiFi, Hotspot only works with mobile connections. I learners above that this is possible with pixel phones, makes me want to get on…

Id argue that this isn't so much a fault of the MCP spec but how 95% of AI 'engineers' have no engineering background. MCP is just an OpenAPI spec. It's the same as any other API. …

I mean given the computing devices most people use are you suggesting a large majority of the population switches to ethernet adapter's for their tablets and phones?

I assume this is similar to Ray?
