I definitely had the situation before that a large file read would suddenly make the context size of my session explode. But I didn't get the need for a cloud component here. So here is a cursor edition of this with no external depende

IMHO the differentiator is deeper yet everywhere engrained in OTP/Behaviours and the famous "Let it crash" slogan. It is the OS-Style process and resource isolation. That is something you can't port with a library into a

Hm, taking 2 hours on my M1 MacBook Air 16GB and it's clearly swapping. Are you using model v1.4? Or any other memory optimization that you applied?

I've been using https://remotedesktop.google.com/ for quite some time now with both Linux and MacOS because it provides the best latencies. Anyone knows what protocols it's using? And is this feature set part of t

Anyone having experience with contabo.com? I've got a couple of VPS there and so far pretty happy but didn't yet have any more involved interaction with the team or support to fully judge. No managed DBs but object storage as well

From this response it's not quite clear to me: So this identity collision is against their Curve25519 implementation? Does this mean the attacker has effectively found a new brute force attack on that specific public/private key a

AS or just artificial stupidity I've heard a couple of times. It's quite mind boggling if you think about how many people had to engineer tensors and train networks for months if not years to create a system capable of so blatant

Would love to discuss this over drinks. For me it's the opposite. It's feels pretty natural to me to imagine that intelligence and (perceived) free will are emergent properties. But consciousness troubles me, we still can't p

I can't help but to see this two ways at the same time. 1st this is totally what we should think and do in terms of moral standard and 2nd this in international law is the perfect vehicle for all kind of end-of-humanity scenarios. Feed

What's the maximum traction that an electromagnet can cause? Is a thermonuclear powered super- in orbit thinkable? At least most human produced space garbage is magnetic I assume? So if we send multiple of those super magnets into orbi

Would love to learn how this works behind the scenes. Are Chinese officials giving the Studio a deadline for this kind apology? Or is this proactive self-censorship triggered solely by social media?

Nice benchmark, but I think the results tell us more about the grpc+protobuf+http2 libraries in use than the languages. It's quite amazing though to see such a highly optimized Java libraries.

A definitive reference would be great, for me the "tried in the past" quote has always been a pointer to the Java VM. Which has great benefits of it's own but always had the problem of global GC induced freezes. Working with

I'm curious about this argument. Haven't heard the "tiger states" growth attributed solely to US policies. Any links/pointers to those advantages that were granted these states but not other developing countries at

Yeah we're hoping to be packaged soon. In the meantime the safest way to install the diode cli is to clone the repo http://github.com/diodechain/diode_client and build it yourself. Point taken on the checksums, we

Yeah, definitely. Today you have to setup two instances at different locations yourself for backup. That has the advantage that you have full control, but it can be tedious. We would like to make that process simpler in the future

But why do strlen() at all? And why are all platforms (Linux, Windows, MacOS) seemingly doing that? I think you're right that there is no upper bound but it shouldn't be necessary to do a full strlen() if you're instead scann

Would love to hear some insights from game developers or others dealing with many binary media files. Is this what git lfs is used for or are there other popular tools in the scene?
