In what language though?
endorphine··on Open source AI is the path forward
Except of 90% of the food in the supermarket shelves out there, which is packed in sugar and conservatives.
endorphine··on Open source AI is the path forward
An operating system is not "generative", hence it's not a force multiplier.
endorphine··on Cure for male pattern baldness given boost by sugar discovery
Be careful though. It's found to probably cause suicidal thoughts to some people (myself included).
endorphine··on A Philosophy Professor's Final Class (2023)
I discovered him 6 months ago and watched most of his lectures. Truly a gem of a channel!
endorphine··on Disney's Internal Slack Breached? NullBulge Leaks 1.1 TiB of Data
The reason for this attack is political (in the general sense of the term).

My thoughts exactly. It's one of the most overloaded and confusing UIs I've seen
endorphine··on Binance built a 100PB log service with Quickwit
OK, let's say it needs to be <3s, for reasons.

(2021)
endorphine··on Binance built a 100PB log service with Quickwit
Let's say that it powers a "search logs" page that an end user wants to see. And let's say that they want last 1d, 14d, 1m, 6m.

So subsecond I would say is a requirement.

And no, it doesn't have to be the same system that ingests/indexes the logs.

endorphine··on Binance built a 100PB log service with Quickwit
What would you use for storing and querying long-term audit logs (e.g. 6 months retention), which should be searchable with subsecond latency and would serve 10k writes per second?

AFAICT this system feels like a decent choice. Alternatives?

endorphine··on Ask HN: Who Went Mac –> Linux?
I switched to Linux after 5 years of Apple and never looked back. The reason was mostly that I wanted to learn more about how OSes work and macOS was getting in the way. Also I had to manage Linux systems at work, so I wanted to get more accustomed to it.

Stayed for the stability, ethos and openess.

endorphine··on What does it feel like to read RSS feeds?
Even better for all of these points: prefer books to blog posts.

endorphine··on WASM Instructions
Is lack of GC another reason that wasm is more performant than JS?

P.S. I assume JS has a GC and WASM does not.

endorphine··on How to make your anger work for you
I'm halfway through the article and one of the suggestions seems to be to understand why we're feeling angry at the moment.

This got me thinking: philosophy and psychology are in part ways to understand ourselves and the world around us. Are there any ways in which more and better _understanding_ does not necessarily lead to a better, more fulfilling life? How important do you think understanding ourselves and the world around us is, for that matter?

endorphine··on Jepsen: MySQL 8.0.34
As opposed to what? Postgres? Isn't InnoDB most performant for read-heavy apps?
endorphine··on Run Mistral 7B on M1 Mac
Not obvious to me. I thought these AI things required vast amount of GPU power. Or is that for the training part?
endorphine··on The music player you wish you had in the early 2000s
What DAC will it have? Is it a good match for high-end (300$) audiophile headphones?
endorphine··on Gemini AI
Parent is saying that the UI is pretty lacking and nothing special.
endorphine··on Gemini AI
Nothing you said is a counter-argument to the part you quoted. It may still be usable compared to the other ones while being clumsy in general.
endorphine··on Cookin' With Rust
As someone who's learning Rust, I'd be interested on experts ' opinion about this. Are these good, solid recommendations?
endorphine··on Ask HN: Any AI-based Code Assistants for web CRUD apps?
I have Copilot in vim, but it only autocompletes things. Can you tell it something like "I want you to introduce a new view that will be rendered when the user does X and it will have 3 buttons that will do Y"?
endorphine··on "Useless Ruby sugar": Argument forwarding
I intuitively expected this to get downvoted but I'd like to hear opinions of the people who downvoted this, wrt how much of this flexibility is a design flaw (or accidental complexity?) and how much it is expected given the history and evolution of the language.
endorphine··on "Useless Ruby sugar": Argument forwarding
Even more interesting to me is the fact that there are people whose most favorite languages are Ruby and Go. (I'm one of those people.)
endorphine··on GitHub Renamed Me (2014)
Same story here
