Good news, in the US you don't need to choose... and by need, I mean you probably get both.

You almost certainly do not want an LLM to do that. Leap71 actually has computational models generating functional rocket engines that way. You could absolutely wrap a tool like that in a shell and handle control with an LLM and not need an

As someone who has been working on this space for a while (not affiliated with govbase) this is really hard. Between eliminating the sycophancy that seems baked into LLMs and dealing with generalized hallucinations - it's freaking hard

Would be cool to see some logs on server load, it's one thing to claim "scale to thousands of requests per second" it's another to show the logs of a €4 VPS doing it. I don't doubt it, when I did a similar experime

Can you add repos after starting the container? What about persisting indexes across restarts? Still, neat. Glad to have an easy to deploy open source tool like this.

The number of times I've looked at the speed limit my car thinks it is supposed to be and seen 80 on what is effectively a residential road... Or that the highway near my house that the car seems to think is 35. Barring also adding som

So https://github.com/BerkeleyHCI/PolymorphicBlocks?tab=readme-... may be of interest to you. It's ok, I did play with it a bit but the tooling was a bit of a pain to get set up. Not going to be as polished but it

Maybe if the only thing you're reacting to is other vehicles or the road. The number of times I have to slam on my brakes on that particular road because of animals running into the road is way too high. And no, not always deer. I'

It’s also difficult to determine if someone is speeding from data. For example the road I live off of according to the speed limit the car thinks goes from 40 to 65 to 25 to 65 to 40 in about a 4 mile span. Spoiler it does not. It is 40 the

No, I actually like that approach better than the traditional ECS approach. Though I assume it both adds and removes some complexity. In a traditional ECS approach you can depend on certain systems running in certain orders because you depe

Your ECS API looks very similar to that of Bevy's, were you inspired at all by that? From the little I can see of it, it looks like you don't allow writes to data and instead prefer to return a new thing based on a query? Based en

Yes and no, for text type stuff? Yes you're right. But I think in the vision space synthetic data will remain useful for a lot of things. I'm currently working on building a pipeline for personal projects to go from CAD models of

Having left a company that also rhymed with Frugal - this somewhat checks out. I do think smaller companies have more options for people to remain ICs somewhat longer. The catch is that ICs do somewhat more than write code. A few months ago
