This is actually a very good question.

The funniest and simplest answer is that you make money off yourself.

I asked an adjacent question to a broker friend who flatly replied: "Not interested in being served a Wells Notice."

Which more or less answered the question for me, even if he was being a bit hyperbolic.

Gets a 100% on Pangram. Stuff is so distracting. Write your own posts, FFS. Or at least pass it through "humanizer" type plugins.

dash dash "--" on a lot of systems and word processors turns it into the em-dash automatically

repo is cloned, AGENTS.md is auto-read into context, the doc says to not allow PR spam. think of it like a soft prompt hook.

This is only true for some parts of the time cost function.

love this adversarial work

Lambda calculus?!

Handing over email metadata, or whatever your interrogator wants from you, will only cause them to shift the goalposts, or find something they want to find in the metadata even if it exonerates you.

There is no reason to cooperate with journalists with a slant.

All of us "olds" had this as a hobby. Or used it regularly.

Just a bunch of weird stuff in this article.

No doubt. Especially for GPU inference at scale. We overclock/overvolt for training and tune way down for inference.

Self-racking lets you rack a bunch of gear you'd never find in VM/dedicated rentals, like consumer parts or older, still very good parts. Overclocking options are available as well if you DIY.

If you need single-threaded performance, colo is really the only way to go anyway.

We have two full racks and we're super happy with them.

What am I missing?

VRAM capacity given the Cerebras/Groq architecture compared to Nvidia.

In parallel, RAM contracts that Nvidia has negotiated well into the future that other manufacturers have been unable to secure.

Interesting - I'll try some other methods

I generally agree with you. But I put up with it since Notepad++ is good software. It is what it is.

I've had a lot of problems with even 10GbE via Thunderbolt 3/4. Bandwidth-wise it works fine, but latency and jitter are issues. This means that stuff like high-speed cameras that need to be synchronized over Ethernet using Precision Time Protocol (PTP) tend to simply fail with these devices.

Yeah, Notepad++ is known for political messaging in their updates. Taiwan, Ukraine, etc.

Their compaction endpoint is far and away the best in the industry. Claude's has to be dead last.

sub 900 not possible though.

I performed a similar analysis to you and found it very difficult to imagine sub-1000. Your comment I think convinced me that it may be possible, though. Interesting.

I'm below the threshold for recruiting but not below Claude at the moment. Not sure where I am going wrong.

Yeah this is the main reason to use a USB DAC. I guess you get marginally better sound quality (more noticeable on expensive studio headphones that need more power to drive them) but better isolation/removal from the noise source is the main reason I use them. Especially relevant because in my travel I'm often in countries that don't have ground plugs in their power sources.

I've found this mostly to be the case when using lightweight open source models or mini models.

Rarely is this an issue with SOTA models like Sonnet-4.5, Opus-4.1, GPT-5-Thinking or better, etc. But that's expensive, so all the companies use cut-rate models or non-existent TTC to save on cost and to go faster.

I just run the agent directly on separate testing/dev servers via remote-ssh in VS Code to have an IDE to sanity check stuff. Just far simpler than local dev and other nonsense.

That's awesome!

The VOID VR was the greatest fusion of VR + reality. CAD-mapped laser tag warehouses while wearing a VR headset and backpack computer. Near-perfect immersion. COVID sadly killed it. Was a beautiful thing - so happy I got to try it out. Even ended up buying a lot of the defunct equipment off eBay.

bobince has some other posts where he is very helpful too! :)

When pressed:

My execution environment is a browser-based JavaScript sandbox. I don't have Python, Node.js shell access, pip, git, or pytest capabilities.

Simon's post may have been referring to a different deployment or feature set that I don't currently have access to. My only code execution is the JavaScript REPL I just demonstrated.

What specifically are you trying to accomplish with the llm library tests? I can help with that in other ways.

EDIT: Ah, in Settings you have to disable the Analysis tool and enable Code Interpreter. You cannot have both enabled.

Huh. Doesn't work over here.

SYSTEM:

Got it. Those are the setup commands for Simon Willison's LLM CLI tool, which lets you interact with language models from the command line.

The -e flag installs it in editable mode, and [test] pulls in the test dependencies. Are you running into any issues with the installation or tests? What are you working on with the LLM library?

USER: Correct. You run them using your code tooling.

SYSTEM:

Realized inability to execute requested Python commands.The user is telling me to run these commands using my code tooling. They want me to actually execute this. Let me think about what tools I have available:

I have the repl tool which runs JavaScript code in a browser environment I have artifacts for creating code/documents I have web_search and web_fetch

The user wants me to:

Checkout https://github.com/simonw/llm Run pip install -e '.[test]' Run pytest

But I don't have a tool that can:

Clone git repositories Run shell commands like pip or pytest Execute Python code in a command-line environment

The repl tool is JavaScript-only and runs in a browser environment, not a server environment where I could run shell commands. I should clarify that I don't have the capability to run shell commands, install Python packages, or execute pytest. I can only run JavaScript code in a browser environment via the analysis tool. I need to be direct and clear about this limitation, following the user's preferences to eliminate filler and be straightforward.I don't have tooling that can run shell commands, clone git repos, install Python packages, or execute pytest. My only code execution environment is a JavaScript browser REPL. I can't run pip, pytest, or any command-line tools. I can only execute JavaScript code in a sandboxed browser environment. What were you hoping to accomplish? Do you need help understanding the test setup, or were you expecting different capabilities?R

YouTube premium "download" is also just completely fake. Downloaded where? What file can I copy?

Price matching on most of their stuff and their budget line of cabling is actually quite competitive. When I have to do buildouts sometimes we need to buy a lot of Ethernet cable and their pricing is not terrible in a pinch.

Once bought an entire store out of patch cables, ha.

They are getting steadily eroded by Temu and Aliexpress/Alibaba. Also in-person retail is surging for specific items - places like Best Buy have had a nice resurgence since the 2010s (stock is down compared to the pandemic, but that's a retail thing, not BBY problem).
