Another chance to tip their hat to llama.cpp, missed. I really don't get it.

I think, may be actually wrong, that most of us do not consider running a model locally a way to save money. It is a way not to spread personal info around.

I always have the same problem myself. Same as I had with version naming of old programs like "Microsoft Word for Windows 2.0" instead of the easier "Microsoft Word 2.0 for Windows".

It is vibe coded.

Version control systems are more important than ever with AI.

I do not understand some of the comments here: openclaw uses pi.

It seems stange also that even Steinberger in his interviews is not giving pi the proper attribution.

Same for me. Tried just a few days ago and, frustrated, gave up.

Useful insight: any sources?

"A strange game. The only winning move is not to play."

I thought I was the only one on Earth to do that (but surely I'm the only boomer doing it).

I am checking this carefully. The red line is here, for me and I think for many Apple customers. I choose Apple for being different from other companies, for valuing customer experiences and for rejecting ads and other "insults" for users. I think that if they cross the line, me and many other customers will leave.

(And I need to understand why the hell my country, Italy, supports the motion)

It's strange to call a device with access to Claude and ChatGPT a "dumbphone"

Can someone explain the various acronyms?

Look at the report (https://www.plasticlist.org/report), it is very informative

I know that Anthropic is one of the most serious company working on the problem of the alignment, but the current approaches seem extremely naive.

We should do better than giving the models a portion of good training data or a new mitigating system prompt.

I also suggest https://github.com/abiosoft/colima for containers, "Containers on Lima"

From the article: "In the first weekend since its debut, Apple sold about 37 million iPhone 16 smartphones".

Crazy that this is a "so weak demand"... and they are not yet available, just for pre-order.

It's better than at least 50% of the developers I know.

Maybe such is the destiny of foundational open source server software... If it's "cloudable" no profitable business will come out of it.

I really hope it's not true, but many clues suggest it might be.

I like the concept of open core with a very liberal license. Perhaps there should be a special "MIT-X" (an example, it would be certainly not compatible) license with a clause borrowed from that of Llama2 for large organizations, as Additional Commercial Terms [0].

Glad you like it.

I have quite ambitious plans, even though it started as a hobby project. In addition to the already developed DDL functionality and multi-database management, the next main features will include:

* Admin UI

* Projects with templates and versioning

* Migrations and deployment

Nice and a possible alternative to the very polished PocketBase.

I'm working on something similar for PostgreSQL [0], with an API compatible with the excellent PostgREST [1].

I believe these tools can be of great utility in many projects and represent a generalization compared to the dedicated middleware that was popular a few years ago. Companies like Supabase are demonstrating this.

Isn't there any European law that could stop this exaggerated and self-granted power?

Not .net: Shell, PHP and C.

And about 150M of virtual memory on my rpi.

Edit: Argh, I thought you meant pihole, sorry for the confusion

I also have always had a curated list of "following" but certainly my experience has been degrading in the last months, for various reasons.

It should be said that for specific contexts, Twitter is the right place to follow, and AI is one of these.

Pocketbase seems really well done and useful.

I am building something similar but at a lower level and based on PostgreSQL.

https://github.com/sted/smoothdb

It aims to be compatible with the PostgREST API.

For those who might be interested, I've recently published SmoothDB on GitHub [1], which, like PostgREST, provides a RESTful API to PostgreSQL databases.

It's a beta, aiming for compatibility with PostgREST, but it's not ready for production yet (so continue to use the very good PostgREST).

Written in Go, SmoothDB can be used both stand-alone and as a module for more complex server applications, which was my main motivation for writing this.

Your thoughts and contributions are greatly appreciated as they will help in the ongoing development and refinement of SmoothDB.

Does anyone know if there is a comparison somewhere for the various Postgres offerings (eg heroku, aws, crunchydata, fly, supabase, etc)), both managed and unmanaged, with features and pricing?

I must have missed something: why do you feel the need to explain why you used the C language?
