Accessibility and universal design may be another important factor. I’ve recall that usage of “click here” makes it harder for screen reader users to tell what link they are trying to click on. I haven’t caught up with the tech in awhile, b

This is very impressive, though an adjacent question — does anyone know roughly how much time and compute cost it takes to train something like the 405B? I would imagine with all the compute Meta has that the moat is incredibly large in ter

Saw the description on the README which shows median, fair, but there's a lot of nuance such as whether or not it's a new offer, location, and level. As a consumer of this info I'd usually try to understand comp against those

The two usual quotes are paraphrased as “ideas are dime a dozen” and “execution is king”, but the thinking I don’t see very often is “what is your unique insight?” aka what’s the differentiatior (and why does it matter)? You’ll get asked th

Cool! It looks like you effectively do auto instrumentation. Have you found there to be interesting nuances between LLM providers? Tracing is great and trace aggrgegates (with context!) cross-vendor would be even more awesome.

Otel is great for avoiding vendor lock-in and the spec stability is a long time coming — great to see. Also good there’s architecture options aside from side car (there’s also proxy mode), which is nice for situations like deploying on a Pa

+1. Stale PRs, also communicate and welcome feature requests or bug fixes that may exist across SO and other channels -- TF-scoped, but perhaps even HCL (if possible) or HCL-adjacent libraries.

As a user and collaborator of TACOS, agreed that it could open up opportunities. Though I echo trade-offs (as in other replies) that it could start a civil war that makes it difficult for end users and collaborators -- reminds me of Python2

Same sentiment here. After 2 decades of development and having been through phases such as Gentoo, Vim+plugins, and other deep dive hobbies, I enjoyed the time spent, but now I just want something that works out of the box. I've found

That's a great observation. There's prior art in authorization (and also in the Kubernetes domain) with folks using Open Policy Agent -- specifically, Rego [0], a derivative of Datalog. I've used it with success in authorizat

For these things I look for flexibility, i.e., from the user perspective, control. That's the nice thing about OSS vs closed source here. I don't necessarily want to send data to another SaaS vendor's data lake/warehouse
