Thats only the case with KV Cache and we do not know how and how long providers keep it.
The good journalists are not and they are the ones getting raided...
Bigger context makes responses slower.
Context is limited.
You do not want the cloud provider running a context compaction if you can control it a lot better.
There are even tips on when to ask the question like "send first the content then ask the question" vs. "ask the question then send the content"
Sounds off to me tbh.
Were your table is stored shouldn't matter that much if you have proper indezes which you need and if you change anything, your db is rebuilding the indezes anyway
Interesting, i would not expect this at all tbh.
I open the window.
Any chance you can share a picture of the size of your room and amount of plants and type of plants?
I have a co2 device which gets red and this triggers the window opening for me asap
Not in the same timeframe. My experiments take an hour.
For me its getting clear that there is so much broad ways of continues improvement, and constant speed, that if this continues like this, even a basic LLM can do a lot of jobs.
Just today cursor released a blog were they run an agent for a week and it build a browser.
Claude Code with subagents and hooks are really good too.
And it takes time to just get it and roll it out to everyone, it takes time to do research, experiments, it takes time to install GPUs and make them etc.
We are currently only limited by things we can progress on.
I know what app builders are but she talked to a computer system, told it what she wanted and it WALKED HER through all the steps and i think she used android studio.
She did all of this in a few hours and doesn't work with computers.
Thats def not the same though.
Trump doesn't take the normal route as any other president did.
Of course with his second term, at least people can't complain how he interacts with your ex allies like us germany. Thats fair to do, shitty and short viewed but hey.
But certain things like his fraud coins etc. this is bluntly illegal and he did not do this shit in his first term.
It might be just different viewpoints people don't understand?
I'm advocating for spending time with AI because it works already good enough and it continues to progress surprisingly fast. Unexperienced fast for me tbh.
If i say "AI is great" i also know when AI is also stupid but i'm already/stil so impressed that i can transform basic text into working go/java whatever code, that i accept that its not perfect just because I highly appreciate how fast we got this.
And it feels weird too tbh. It doesn't feel special to talk to an LLM and get code back somehow while this was unthinkable just a few years back.
Somethimes it likes you just forget about all these facts and have to remind yourself that this is something new.
I'm an architect and have 20 years of experience.
I have seen production databases reachable from the internet with 8 character password and plenty others.
But my particular point is only about the readability of code from others.
1) no one cares if it works. No one cared before how your code looked as long as you are not a known and well used opensource project.
2) there are plenty of services which do not require state or login and can't be hacked. So still plenty of use cases you can explore. But yes i do agree that Security for production live things are still the biggest worry. But lets be honest, if you do not have a real security person on your team, the shit outthere is not secure anyway. Small companies do not know how to build securely.
I vibe coded a few ideas i had in my mind for a while. My basic stack is html, single page, local storage and lightweight js.
It is really good in doing this.
those ideas are like UI experiments or small tools helping me doing stuff.
Its also super great in ELI5'ing anything
Its still not a Hype, its still crazy what is possible today and we still have no clear at all if this progress continues as it does or not with the implication, that if it continues, it has major implications.
My wife, who has no clue about coding at all, chatgpted a very basic android app only with guidance of chatgpt. She would never ever been able to do this in 5 hours or so without my guidance. I DID NOT HELP HER at all.
I'm 'vibecoding' stuff small stuff for sure, non critical things for sure but lets be honest, i'm transforming a handfull of sentences and requirements into real working code, today.
Gemini 3 and Claude Opus 4.5 def feel better than their prevous versions.
Do they still fail? Yeah for sure but thats not the point.
The industry continues to progress on every single aspect of this: Tooling like claude CLI, Gemini CLI, Intellij integration, etc., Context length, compute, inferencing time, quality, depth of thinking etc. there is no current plateau visible at all.
And its not just LLMs, its the whole ecosystem of Machine Learning stuff: Highhly efficient weather model from google, Alpha fold, AlphaZero, Roboticsmovement, Environment detection, Image segmentation, ...
And the power of claude for example, you will only get with learning how to use it. Like telling it your coding style, your expectations regarding tests etc. We often assume, that an LLM should just be the magic work collegue 10x programmer but its everything an dnothing. If you don't communicate well enough it is not helpful.
And LLMs are not just good in coding, its great in reformulating emails, analysing error messages, writing basic SVG files, explaining kubernetes cluster status, being a friend for some people (see character.ai), explaining research paper, finding research, summarizing text, the list is way to long.
Alone 2026 there will go so many new datacenters live which will add so much more compute again, that the research will continue to be faster and more efficient.
There is also no current bubble to burst, Google fights against Microsoft, Antrophic and co. while on a global level USA competets with China and the EU on this technology. The richest companies on the planet are investing in this tech and they did not do this with bitcoins because they understod that bitcoin is stupid. But AI is not stupid.
Or Machine learing is not stupid.
Do not underestimate the current status of AI tools we have, do not underestimate the speed, continues progress and potential exponential growth of this.
My timespan expecation for obvious advancments in AI is 5-15 years. Experts in this field predict already 2027/2030.
But to iterate over this: a few years ago no one would have had a good idea how we could transform basic text into complex code in such a robust way, which such diverse input (different language, missing specs, ...) . No one. Even 'just generating a website'.
Journalists are the backbone of a healthy democracy.
FU USA FU
And just to be clear: The biggest military force of the world threatens denmark, scrambles the economy around the world due to sudden politic changes (tarifs) and destroys its own integrity as an ally
Elon Shithead promised a lot for apparently a good price and wasn't able to deliver.
It wasn't just the hate i think.
I always say "most companies today are IT companies, they just don't know it".
I would argue that Disney is definitily a big IT company and relies a lot on that tech.
Perfect storytelling might need flaweless execution to not distract. cirque du soleil for example are also experts in every single aspect relevant to their show/business. Check out the YT video from their sound manager " Inside the Sound of Cirque du Soleil: Drawn to Life" this is so crazy but it explains so much especially how they control the audiance clapping.
People are already working for years on Zootopia 2 and every one of their technolical advances were driven by that movie.
These inventions are represented at Siggraph and are often also research paper and land in the whole ecosystem (in software like hudini).
LDR live from their ideas and stories and experiments with styles. I don't think its relevant for technology it would just be a tech demo.
Can but investment in two things with the fundamental same topic can lead to diversation of funds.
Only if the nuclear investors are completly different than renewable than that would be a good idea.
Wind appears to be similiar than nuclear.
Nuclear has a few other major flaws: Uranium aka nuclear weapons risk, Dependency on uranium (yes china finally solved the Thorium issue but that happened this year?), geopolitical/terrorism risks (see ukraine).
And because i'm from germany: do you know that in bavaria, you still have to check certain meat for radioactivity?
"Global investment in clean energy and fossil fuels" shows a decline in fossil.
And there are plenty of good reasons why the investment in fossil fuels is still there because these investments can easily be not because its is still competitive, but its still competitive because base costs have been written off.
Aka the replacment of that coal power plant might have been 'competitve' because the whole infrastructure around it is still there and usable, because they might just replace the main burning chamber. Because for current stability reasons its easier to add gas turbines or keep them alive as backup because the renewable energy build out takes more time.
Nonetheless, the overall statistics says that renewable + batteries are now the cheapest energy source on the planet. Locally it might not be doesn't change the fact.
And no we do not need nuclear for baseload. Wind and solar are capable of baseload.
Alone my 4 year old EV has a batterie of 100kWh which would allow a heat pump to heat a house for 2.5 days.
Also countries in the north like Canada has plenty of waterenergy for baseload and countries closer to the aquator have extreme amount of sun.
Earthenergy can be still used in the most northern countries.
Yes for sure it just doesn't happen because huge projects like this have to be aligned and coordinated on complete different scales.
Thats why the french build a reactor in UK.
Even the CDU/CSU political party in germany, who was in power for 16 years uninterupted wasn't doing it.
So whatever we wish or think would happen doesn't matter if the only ones investing in nuclear are techcompanies and as somone else stated, they do this primiarily for existing nuclear capacity.
But whats happening now is a renewable revolution. Batteries are very cheap now and get cheaper and easier to make and you need the manufactoring capacity for them anyway (cars, storage projects) that they will break up every other area like normal housing.
Especially because now it reached africa as a continent and asia. Its exploding.
And its very easy to just extend this potential. Many normal areas are still vacant.
A LOT of countries probably will either neve be able to afford nuclear or will not be allowed to have it anyway.
Thats why you don't use it with IP and trade secrets OR have a lawyer looking over it.
I work for a very big company, very big companies trust other very big companies. After all we are not google, so we work with Microsoft and others.
Nothing new hear tbh
The progress on 'nuclear' is so slow, that the same investment in Batterie and renewable would actually help a lot more around the globe.
We know how to build nuclear, we don't do it because its too expensive. Other forms are so far away from being useful, that the current Storage + Renewable pricing is so crazy good, that whatever you do with nuclear will just not be able to compete.
And the benefit? Every 3th world country and person can invest in small and big Storage + Renewable but they can't do the same with nuclear.
