I have an old colleague who I've been leaning on for ai things (they're more on the pulse than I) who uses cue (cuelang.org) for distributing and formalizing a set of skills/prompts. It's the best thing I've come ac

I do like this; but the classic 'dll hell' issue looks like it might be ignored/overlooked (2 plugins depending on the same plugin but of different versions). I do like that they've thought primarily about implementing

Besides the actual topic. The portfolio is fantastic! I particularly liked the yin and yang of world hunger. https://www.davidrevoy.com/article43/yin-and-yang-of-world-h... . I mean not something I want to look at on a

Thanks, I want to add https://www.arraycast.com/2025/01/04/Decker.html which introduced me to it. I wish more people had exposure to q/k/apl and think this is a great way to do it. I think this is t

Wow thanks for pointing this out! This is actually what I was hoping would happen when the deepspec stuff dropped! And having zlab create these confirms my bias that I think open models are the way.

Yeah I'm with you, this feels like a case for assertions & not a new core feature. Perhaps I'm missing something because it was promoted by Michael Fogus and has been ratified by those who would know (Alex I'm assuming).

This is a pretty harsh critique, while I see the agent related markdown the application seems measured and well applied. Hardly seems like slop; it's might be a one man show+ai agent but the direction and project composition feel like

If you're looking to use this with the community edition I would recommend reading through https://dataintellect.com/blog/running-torq-with-kdb-x-commu... as they outline some of the factors that need consideratio

This is great! I feel the same way about the deepseek v4 architecture for commodity hardware. Also have enjoyed playing with https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/nanowhale-100m-base (but early days for me understanding

This is the kind of clojure port that I always was looking for. Mostly because I thought go's core library and channels abstractions hits a simpler/nicer base API which would with the core & async apis (not to mention scratche

Ah this reminds me of my favorite stack which I never got to actually work with; luvit.io (libuv with luajit; both hot items at the time). I hope this becomes a thing, typing in lua might make it easier to scale for teams (which I think is

While I haven't read all the posts here I was wondering if anyone also noticed a 10% usage before their most recent weeks usage even started? (Specifically over 2026-03-27/28) I was seeing weird service outages over this time too.

Sorry, I did compose it from my phone and wasn't clear. I realize the article talks to the Maven tooling I was talking to it's data aggregation and modeling suite more generally. (And obviously would have been used as part of the

I'm curious as to how Palantir has been used during the war or Iran (if at all or does it suffer from subjective bias). I know there were larger movements at play on a political level here but I'm becoming concerned about how much

Token usage and agent usage optimisation? It seems like a real problem for me. Probably because I'm not overly inspired to pay for a Claude x5 subscription and really hate the session restrictions (esp when weekly expend at the end of

Yeah, but it's specifically testing things that implement against a posix API (because generally that's what "native" apis do (omiting libc and other os specific foundation libraries that are pulled in at runtime or othe

Or toit, which unsurprisingly has Lars Bak involved. A man with history touching all self, Jvm and v8 codebases. I wouldn't be surprised if toit primaries, Kasper or Florian also have experience in these technological intersections.

Perhaps if a supply chain attack is your largest concern then using some well vetted system like wolfi is more up your alley. (See some of their related repos on GitHub https://github.com/projectbluefin - I've been fol

Yeah, but there is something else here too... I used cachy for a heartbeat and it advertises the same benefits; it just felt slower (notably on boot) Maybe it was just all the graphical load screens. There's something clear had that ma

I must say this is amazing. The psychology and manipulation makes me realize how poor I am regarding trust even when the other side is pushing for some unconfirmed equilibrium. In the game I acknowledge that I was aligned to the "Simpl

Yeah I feel yah; But to bolster the post: I now want to hear more as to why Defold now has a clojure repl! I noticed some musings around some native bindings in gh issues which is "interesting" but I'm not quite getting it. I

Italo Calvino was noted as being of great inspiration to Jonathan Blow (as a relative point of interest on the OP's question) I think during one of the Braid 20th anniversary podcasts[0] he talks to it which I loved listing to (from a

Yeah I agree. The dithering effects in Everybody wants to crank the world[0] are much more visually satisfying but as you pointed out perhaps it's the levels of the textures that make it feel... Well like textures. [0] https:/&#x

It's a shame that fanotify[0] wasn't pointed out in this document also. Only since seeing it used in 'zigs --watch' impl on Linux[1] (and the fact that I need to enable admin capabilities to run this in a container) has
