Anyone not doing distributed training across thousands of GPU, pytorch is the best option. Others have an infra team to work on it.

Opus models were straightforward to review. But Opus 5 is very different.

I was confused when google acquired "Wiz" for so much money But now, it makes sense to some extent. Security is non-negotiable in AI Era

We are ok with Open Weight models unless they are far weaker than our closed weight models and we and only we have control over them

Multi-Modal is the way to go. Deepmind nailed this a long back.

This was expected. Apple will carefully choose what & how people can use AI in their ecosystem and will make sure of it. I hope "Apple Foundation Models" Eco-system grows with support from major model providers.

As I read this, all of my favorite things about ruby compared to something like python were influenced by lisp. Ruby is a joy to program and it seems mostly due to design influence from lisp.

I have always been fascinated by Hash Functions. Modern hash functions are incredibly fast and unbelievably secure (crypto hashes). Also, equally important is how hashes have adopted to the usecases. We are intentionally developing slow has

I will be doing these things with local LLMs Take a fast, small and powerful LLM running locally to index my personal data like images, videos, documents and enrich them and tag with the enriched metadata. Want to group by people - Search t

This mostly applies to almost any database. Deletes are Writes and Writes are resource intensive. This is more prominent on databases like Elastic Search. When I was tasked to delete millions of (old) documents, it overloaded the cluster an

> that bloated pinnacle of software that is 80% about DRM, 20% about the reading experience I have never seen someone explain the adobe software so perfectly. Using any adobe software is exactly this.

I honestly don't think this is bad. For anyone who is not a frontend engineer / designer, using tailwind gives good defaults and better LLM support. Frameworks were always about lowering the bar for entry with cost to genuine ne

> If Fable had been acting on malicious instructions—a prompt injection attack ... it’s alarming to think quite how far it could go to exfiltrate data or cause other forms of mischief. Yet another reminder to use Sandbox and Guardrails.

I'm worried at the general direction of this. More and more companies will gatekeep the model capability even if it is just a few percent increase in capabilities than other models. Lot of companies will start doing this in various de

The line that stuck with me: "Recovery after congestion collapse is an uncommon regime, but it is exactly the regime a congestion controller exists to handle." This generalizes well beyond congestion control. Most control loops ha

My Guess * Absorb the impact by some margin * Slash base models (which they are already doing) * Efficient software - So, end user experience is not affected. * Direct Price hike always be an option.

I like an AI that can answer questions with all information and context on a particular thread. It should not be visible to others in the thread / post. You ask, it answers and that's it. It should not take over the feed. I like t

I have used windows 7 since it launched and moved to 10 & 11. I like some design elements of windows 7, but I would absolutely not use it today. If you think, "I should try this", Any reason why? I'm really curious to kno

The "route to a human" part is the bigger gap. Which human? OpenAI isn't licensed as a healthcare provider in any jurisdiction. A real intervention apparatus for 1-3M weekly flagged users is not feasible. I don't think t

Smaller tool calling models are absolutely needed when we are trying to apply agentic workflow to on-device, small systems, where data is private. I currently use small general purpose LLM. But a special finetune is always the way. I'l

This is the first time I came across a change (a big one) that was implemented without passing through PEP. I thought it was standard.

I still have high hopes that antigravity can work if they have good agentic harness to support with seamless integrations to gemini and 3rd party models. Current Issues * It is still buggy. They are fixing it fast, but not as seamless as VS

Also, not clear if there is any linux support yet. Could be a dealbreaker for power users who choose it.

I know this is not for me. But if correctly executed, it could sell like piece of cake. It should be thin, light, massive battery life, fast and seamless. It seems Intel, Qualcomm and MediaTek will be supplying chips and curious to see how

Zed is simple, fast and genuinely and good piece of software. I primary use it as a general-purpose text / markdown editor and try it as IDE sometimes. It has become a essential tool for me. I love to see how it evolves next.
