I'm curious: If someone wanted to serve models off hardware/silicon directly (like Cerebras or Taalas, and soon Google I think) rather than GPUs, would these parameters still be adjustable at request time? Or would they have to de

This is not gambling in the legal sense (gambling is not even allowed in my state, and yet here I am using Kalshi, in case you wanted to argue that), which is why my transaction was classified as Professional Services and, for the nth time,

I really appreciate all of the colourful feedback, but as I have said, this is not a cash advance. It was classified as Professional Services by Capital One and I received 1.5% cash back as is standard with the credit card I used. The issue

Prediction market aren't one of them. I checked my credit card statement and the transaction was classified as Professional Services.

It's not a cash advance. I funded my Kalshi account using a Capital One credit card. Not only was it not classified a cash advance, I got 1.5% back as is standard on this card.

A cash advance is taking physical cash out with your credit card at an ATM or bank teller. Making an online purchase (which depositing money into your Kalshi account is) is therefore not a cash advance.

The visualiser seems to be quite naive with what it defines as a token. I don't think a token is an entire word as often as the demo shows, and when it gets to the `def estimate_tokens` method, the entire `# Rough heuristic: ~1 token p

Does this help with DuckDB concurrency? My main gripe with DuckDB is that you can't write to it from multiple processes at the same time. If you open the database in write mode with one process, you cannot modify it at all from another

Nice app! I see that the page title says "client" and there's the Vite favicon still, which you might want to fix :) I also think having a dropdown for the address search is somewhat expected these days, but is lacking here.

I'm aware that the public IP changes when a phone (on which one hardly has much control over how things run anyway), switches from cellular to a WiFI network. Your comments are more practical (and maybe aimed at a layman's use of

That would cause your active connections to break because the source IP changed entirely. Are you sure the IP changes abruptly, or they keep it for as long as the session is live? Though keeping the original IP would mean that, for example,

Or, you know, just Gemini 2.6 Flash. I don't recall the 2.5 version having a date associated with it when it came out, though maybe they are using dates now. In marketing, at least, it's always known as Gemini 2.5 Flash/Pro.
