I don't think the article mentioned it but adjusting how you configure the WSGI server can really affect performance too.
It's also easy to accidentally make your DB queries sequentially or lazily. Using select_related is critical.
I agree, the inevitable feedback loops will be painful to watch play out. AI written blog -> AI training set -> repeat.
Presumably this is because LLMs just echo all the pro-Postgres Medium articles they've been trained on. They don't have any actual experience.
Frieren is fantastic and beautifully done, with only a few scenes that look cheap. But I actually strongly dislike the credit sequence you're talking about, and I'm pretty sure it's rotoscoped.
They don't usually. In this case they do because they need it to look jittery.
What if I'm trying to submit a form on my phone and the captcha appears? Do I need a second phone now?
These days that's probably true, but when a projectionist needed to roll the film and babysit the equipment I doubt it would be worthwhile.
Not to mention that film rolls do wear out overtime.
Fantastic work and a great write up.
Can't have those bots or scrapers running amok can we...
Fly supersonic commercially is the only thing I can think of
I was a big fan of Perplexity early on, but their product (at least the free version) has deteriorated so much in the last few months. I don't think they test enough with the cheaper LLMs they are using.
- Code blocks are often not formatted or highlighted, unless I explicitly ask for it to be. - The font is often Times New Roman for some reason.
If I log out then things are usually a bit better.
Cool. But not sure why I would want AI chat in my F1 dashboard.
All true, except I think you've conflated software and software product a bit. The author is mourning the craft, the same way the boot makers or furniture makers probably mourned the decline of their craft. We'll still have boots, furniture, and software, but those craftspeople who take pride in it can justifiably feel melancholy about it all.
I know a commercial product isn't necessarily the solution, but I just love Tailscale. It makes sshing around absurdly easy and clean.
There is also the open source headscale, which I haven't used but seems to be well respected.
Unless things have changed? It used to be $125,000 for 7% on a SAFE, then $375,000 which converts at your next fundraise at whatever the most favourable terms offered are. So unless you never raise more money it's certainly not $500k for 7%.
I've just setup a simple blog at https://c0-0p.io/blog
Mostly an excuse to write a simple template system and play with some self hosting. Hopefully something will come of it soon.
Very cool, I have spent the past week cobbling together something very similar from docker swarm and tailscale but something all in one would be amazing.
