I’m quite interested in this. Where are you getting metadata and covers from? I found this pretty hard unless you pay for ISBNdb (OpenLibrary has bad covers, and Google Books API doesn’t give you high resolution ones I think).

This article was AI generated and a waste of time. So many obvious LLM patterns that I stopped reading 10% of the way down the page.

I wanted to try NVIDIA’s aistore for our datasets, but I couldn’t figure out how to get a small version up and running so I gave up (a few years ago, today I’d get an LLM to show me how k8s works).

This is great! We need more alternatives to the full calibre stack for working with eBooks. Are you planning to keep it epub focused or would you consider adding support for something like azw3? Also is there a conformance suite for EPUB?

I think people underestimate how valuable these reports are, so I’m very glad that detailed investigation is done here. Every major grid operator around the world is going to study this and make improvements to make sure this doesn’t happen

It’s prompt processing so prefill - that’s compute bound not memory.

I want to like RustFS, but it feels like there's so much marketing attached to the software it turns me off a little. Even a little rocket emoji and benchmark in the Github about page. Sometimes less is more. Look at the ty Github home

I use VoiceInk (needed some patches to get it to compile but Claude figured it out) and the Parakeet V3 model. It’s really good!

To be frank this is a service to you. No company you want to work at has a recruiter that doesn't understand the difference (a fully AI recruiter would be better than this experience).

Does anyone use this? I was setting it up a few months ago but it felt very complicated compared to MinIO (or alternatives). Is there a sort of minikube-like tool I could use here?

They're a bit less bad than they used to be. I'm not exactly happy about what this means to incentives (and rewards) for doing research and writing good content, but sometimes I ask a dumb question out of curiosity and Google over

One summer in middle school our family computer failed. We bought a new motherboard from Microcenter but it didn’t come with a Windows license, so I proposed we just try Ubuntu for a while. My mom had no trouble adjusting to it. It was all

Let it go. He made a frustrated remark in a support thread 14 years ago where the OP escalated into calling him deliberately rude. Even if he hadn't changed at all over the years he has been contributing to open source with a product u

Who cares if they feel like they are the more valuable person in the relationship? Do you decide your framework based on mental games other people might play? Decide if extending an invite that is declined will cost you something (food, s

Is it stable? I've been using restic for a while, and I'm interested in rustic, but I have no idea how stable it is overall. Obviously it's still in beta so I won't use it in prod but curious what others experiences have

I think we might just disagree about how much of the GPU spend is on small vs large model (inference or training). I think it’s something like 99.9% of spending interest is on models that don’t fit into 128 GB (remember KV cache matters too

Surprisingly overlapping set with games I’ve played and enjoyed a lot! Dead Cells was another that has a lot in common.

This is almost true but not quite - I don't think much of the (dollar) spend on enterprise GPUs (H100, B200, etc.) would transfer if there was a 128 GB consumer card. The problem is both memory bandwidth (HBM) and networking (NVLink),

Small startups will always excel in talent density because of the increase risk (and reward) and alignment along equity, but all of the large companies have enough technically brilliant people. Many in their 30s or 40s want to do excellent

I've always thought that the reason they don't care about gaming is because gaming has always been a race-to-the-bottom in margins business. Gamers care a lot about hardware in ways that make selling gaming PCs always very low mar

I switched from a 2019 MBP to a new M4 Pro a few weeks ago and I didn’t even know Rosetta wasn’t installed (I assumed on and installed by default) until I had to run a Go binary that hadn’t been updated since 2020. I use a lot of nonstandar

The employees will have to wait 180 days (at least that's the standard) before selling any shares, so they usually feel the effects of a "bounce".

I think we don’t talk enough about tab completion model quality. Recently Copilot’s model got a lot better (probably trying to catch up to Cursor) but I feel like there’s still so much room here (and I assume Zeds is worse from your descrip

I use the Night Owl theme in all my editors (and terminal), including Zed, and the consistency is nice. It looks good, but if there’s a Zed-specific issue I haven’t used Zed in a while.

I've been doing it to Azure (private package repo) since their instructions were ok. I would like some of these to publish instructions for uv as well (instead of just pip/twine).
