KOSPI is crashing because the memory manufacturers are priced for continued bubble orders books. Those orders cannot be sustained

Could you explain what that means? Are they overbooking and will not be able to meet those particular projections? Would a single segment of one industry cause a reverberation throughout?

What are the defaults for duckdb? Is it the pragma 2026 equivalent?

Correct...

"Anchor is not a diagnostic tool. Instead, its greatest value lies in the questions it could help answer."

and

"Users can zoom from the whole brainstem seen on MRI down to individual neurons while maintaining their precise spatial relationships."

Thats pretty cool. The diagnosis/evaluation is still in the hands of another entity (doctor/scientist/AI assistant). More samples (via end of life donations) would help understanding, early diagnosis, and hopefully/eventually cures.

how did you exit? because nothing seems to be working.

This is wonderful and well done. I wanted to do something with a single NFL game using the play by play you see on websites. Do you have precise enough coordinate data or do you interpret and extrapolate from a play-by-play description? Is the feed data free?

I had my admin disable cowork a month ago and that worked. Has it resumed since then?

Multiple projects/isolated memories in the same folder

I cannot stand this and do not know how to start a new project/session in a new folder. Even if I select a new folder in the UI when typing the first prompt of a new session, it keeps going back to the first folder I created. For this reason alone I am thinking of going to the CLI. But if anyone has any answers, I am all ears.

Do you know if nand2tetris covers/uses microcode?

Several of my top engineers complained about all the mandatory training sessions, compliance pakperwork and online "learning modules" with nanny robo-quizzes. It was a lot.

Been through this and it was all for compliance. Legal checkboxes. So the corp can say 'we did what was required'. For the quizzes I had to take (refreshed yearly) I was given the answer key. Whoever took the test first in a given year would jot down the keys. Since it was all for 'compliance' no one gave a hoot. All theater and HR only cared that you took it (their checkbox). In the tech world vendor compliance comes closest to this. I no longer ascribe blame - it is the bigger legal system and framework that drives this. Change has to come from without.

"On the client side, this project would not have been possible without the exceptional support of Deputy Minister Mark Kleefeld and his team at the Ministry of Infrastructure. From the very beginning, Infrastructure’s leadership understood what we were trying to accomplish and backed it fully. That kind of top-down support from the client ministry is rare, and it made all the difference."

That's kind of amazing. Alberta has a conservative govt so I am surprised "in-house" got the pass over "outside company". It is good to see fiscal conservatism over 'govt-bad' conservatism. Hats off to the deputy minister et al. for approving this.

Using Google Gemini to generate requirements/spec document from video is amazing. I wonder what the prompt looked like and if there was custom support to help process the videos.

Do you happen to have instructions on how to build the plastic sheet setup or perhaps a pointer to something that I can buy?

Ok... that makes sense.

Reducing algae growth makes sense for canals. Would this be a desirable outcome if we were placing panels on, say, a body of water behind a dam (at a safe distance, and contained). Are there ecological impacts of reducing algae growth?

Oh... so MTP is not speculative decoding? The (T)oken (P)rediction made me think it was on the inference side. I shall read the paper.

Edit: Ok, I understand now. You are saying that MTP has two aspects. 1) The training (for the mini-models to generate tokens), and 2) The actual speculative decoding implementation on the inference side (which uses those trained mini-models).

Did DeepSeek come up with MTP? It was listed prominently in their recent paper as being carried forward from the previous release.

I always wondered why AST's were not more of a part in both editing and scoping of changes/parsing code. I thought I read an article where they said 'grep' was just as effective. It kinda made sense for the case they were talking about.

Right. That's the gist of the 'curated/guided' command entry.

So it comes down to how much of that $100 bn is in the 'option', I guess. Then it's not an expense at all.

Not a technical answer but when we started up the system (zx 16k) we were in a prompt. We would add commands with line numbers. After each line number the list of possible commands were embossed on the keyboard and you would start with that (if, peek, poke, etc). What you could complete was limited by that. Edit: BASIC programming

That was not a very good description so try this: https://www.usebox.net/jjm/notes/basic/ (scroll down for keyboard pic and also some code). Or this video : https://youtu.be/zgjGsNS6a0Y?t=167

Are the Claude Code (desktop) models very different from what Bedrock has? I thought you could hook up VSCode (not Claude Desktop) to Bedrock Anthropic models. Are there features in Claude Desktop that are not in VSCode/cli?

Interesting... what is the use case for the AI that is querying it? Is it how to develop additional features for integration with your app or do you have some other use case? Code review/audit/debugging/etc. For AI developing against an API I would think an OpenAPI json file would do the trick.

Is the Roslyn method called as part of the build/publish?

For a long time I thought my RTX-2060 was just not capable and the other day I did a ffmpeg GPU transcode and was surprised by how well it did. So now I am thinking about putting on some of Google's new Gemma edge models (probably the smallest will work with my 6GB VRAM + 2 GB) setup. I am not a 100% sure what that 2GB is but I think it is borrowing from the system in some manner.

I like the Claude desktop interface. The color scheme, presentation, fonts, etc. Is there a CSS I can find for the desktop version - I assume it's using some kind of web rendering engine and CSS is part of it.

Is there a link to US/Canada retailers?

Edit: Never mind. I always find it after asking a question.

uv has been very useful but I also looking at pixi. Anyone have any experience with that? I hear good things about it.

I see one of your responses that this is a complement to an existing logging system - a one line summary. That works for me.

I had no idea it was AI assisted (as another comment put it). However I am fine with this... I would certainly enhance my long form content like the author described. The author mentioned the use of world bible and style guides, and it shows through in the consistency and tightness of the article. And that is key... to take something AI generated (based on a prompt) and rework it systematically in an iterative human-in-the loop. The end result was a great read.

Are there any restrictions on how short the error_slug should be? The meat of some of my errors can be pretty long (for example an ffmpeg error). There are also many phases to a job - call them tasks. Can a canonical log line be a collection of task log lines?

Can you use handy exclusive via the cli if you have a file to feed it?

Do they have a good multilingual embedding model? Ideally, with a decent context size like 16/32K. I think Qwen has one at 32K. Even the Gemma contexts are pretty small (8K).
