What do these discussions even matter when the words don't matter? How many times has AGI been declared already? A bunch of people (e.g. Jensen Huang) have called Astra AGI, for example. The goal posts get moved, everybody's hustl

It's crazy how deep Microsoft's bench is (Lean was started there, vscode is another), for everything not directly related to the the ai models (hell, even github for data). So interesting how everything played out, I remember in t

These people need to take a vacation and come back in a few months when the vision models get better/cheaper. Astra is already good at taking screenshots and acting on it (part of the agi claims).

Documentation was difficult to keep in sync with code because the tools didn't operate at a natural language level. Things like refactoring names, or terminology, or concept changes (foo is now fooGroup that contains bar) were tedious.

wtf is this garbage? I don't think the average C dev isn't aware that the language has pitfalls, especially around memory management. Also a lot of these problems are because C is used everywhere and has been for so long. Not beca

No it isn't. Your local .env should NOT be shared, but should also be assumed to be leaked at any given time. Security should be done using a secrets manager through the cloud platform that's being used, e.g. AWS'secrets mana

I thought the chinese models were cheaper per token, but about the same or more expensive on tasks because they used more tokens for reasoning. Cutting even further, seems like a really big leap.

Yea, that tracks. I just looked it up and AWS made ~130bn. Given how big AI is, and how those two are pretty much the only players (in comparison aws is 1/3 market share), that seems about right. It's a far cry from "nobody&#
