Nice work; I remember browsing it during covid. Tried AI for a standalone html page snippet renderer[0]. I tried just feeding it snippets one by one and that worked, but the raymarching ones it could not get going until I gave it the dwitte

I like it, and indeed neatly shows the power of Lisp. The JS variety (well the one that I could come up with) is far less elegant, but works [0] (well, mostly). It really shows how the different LLMs stack up; some really cannot get anythin

Similar to others, the unevenness of prompt results makes pricing per message quite tricky; it generated a nice looking app for me in the first go, I asked for an enhancement and it spent the rest of my free messages on trying, and failing,

That was what I tried on the train [0] a few weeks ago. I used Groq to get something very fast to see if it would work at least somewhat. It gives you a PDF in the end. Plugging in a better model gave much better results (still not really

I tried to vibe code (I don't like the term and normally would never) this as someone here suggested, so here [0]. It did not 'quite' take less than an hour and it's not usable yet for writing (just reading); it does hav

Turbo c was slow, Turbo Pascal and later object pascal were (and are) very fast.

I for one partially wrote a few mobile games with LOAD81 ; I was travelling and only had my Pandora with me; I wrote all the logic tested them all out with load81. Of course I had to actually get them on a mobile platform device and create

This is great; I have been thinking about this for a long time. I like reading about past and current implementations that try to better sql; from a programming and a data science and performance perspective. I am aware of the ones you link

I feel your pain. I have been making things like this in Go; https://github.com/tluyben/go-proxy https://github.com/tluyben/redis-sentinel-proxy just to make them easier to instrument for my exper

We had a specific use case that was needed urgently which we couldn't get working with any of the standard systems, so we used Go. Works very well. It is sometimes simply a matter of time; we needed it before the morning (for a launch)

This model is, thankfully, far more susceptible for longer and elaborate explanation as input. The rest (4,4o,Sonnet) seem to struggle with comprehensive explanation; this one seems to perform better with a spec like input.

This model did single shot figure out things that Sonnet just ran ran in a loop doing wrong and reddit humans also seemed not be able to fix (because niche I guess). It is slow (21 seconds for the hardest issue), but that is still faster th

Not related (at least as far as I can see), but I read a lot of startup materials translated from Portugal Portuguese to English and often was quite confused about what it said, indeed sentences like the gp here. Then I learned Portugal Por

Sure, but not in the case of maximising performance if that is your goal. Which is what we are talking about here… wringing every ounce of overhead from it is basically the business case; at least one of them.

This is a new implementation not related to Q (same main author of course though).

Not for all cases, but he (and his team) take the time to squeeze performance out of things where others just say 'it's fast enough'. There was a monh+ long conversation why all most used json parsers are so terribly slow etc

It is for APL/k/j; you see patterns popping up in very dense code which does a lot, which does make it readable really once used to it. But most people never get to that point (or even ever look at APL of course).

There is a lot to learn from him; tiny binaries, super fast performance; programming style you like or don't, that's fine. To have a 200kb binary that's a programming language + database is very nice. It's great we can s

Similar problem and similar-ish product 0]; we get DDoSsed a lot and I don’t know why. We had to put Cloudflare botfight to stop it. That works very well, but what do you do if CF doesn’t exist? 0] https://flexlists.com

Can it be done for docker compose (in theory) too?

I found the code of Qdrant very readable (with nice comments in the top) even if you are not (quite) aware of how vector databases (exactly) work. You need to be a programmer, but with that as a given, it reads surprisingly easy for a produ
