A generator would work better in this situation right?

This is incredible! It loaded so fast on my mobile and I’m able to watch channels from all over. Amazing stuff man. It requires a thread of its own

Agree on this and it’s the architecture that backs our orchestration platform called https://unmeshed.io

I really dread the chatbot or AI customer service. They make incredibly difficult to reach a human and have templated solutions to problems which are typically not helpful. Most customer service issues that can be solved with a bot can also be solved with a tool. Like canceling subscription or processing a return.

The other day I had a unique problem at Amazon and took me a while to get to a chat with human. They solved it in an instant. But the bot or AI previously was just asking questions that was irrelevant and making it difficult to get to the solution.

$20 codex has been working great for me and I don’t think I ever hit a limit. It works great because I typically break down the tasks small enough that I can fully review and accept.

I’ve always wondered what’s the business case for spending more as I personally feel I am getting so much done.

Using the game theory, shouldn’t the nice, forgiving and not being a pushover the winning strategy?

I’ve always felt the US won trust and respect with these characteristics. It looks like we are now shifting strategy and I wonder where this will lead to.

The first time I truly enjoyed web development was when I got the hang of jQuery. Made everything so much simple and usable!

I doubt this will clear the government/regulatory approvals as it seems clearly monopolistic. But these days anything can happen and I might end up being surprised. Netflix stock seems stable in-spite of this news.

Probably referring to the founder of pipedream

Unmeshed.io is a newer startup in the space - and works like a charm. Temporal seems like more targeting durable executions, but scheduling a different game. It starts with crons but soon you got to deal with holidays, adhoc skips and holds and more especially during maintenance and upgrades.

Unmeshed has all of these, managing holiday calendars etc and makes it super easy. It even has agents for AS400 server commands if that is still a thing you need.

This reminds me of Dwight from the office in the episode where he doesn’t tip the delivery driver and says: I never tip for anything I can do myself. I can deliver this if I want to.

I’m not sure there is much risk in vendor lock in. Look at Temporal. If you use the SDK you are probably locked in for life.

Unmeshed - it’s not open source. It’s a new version of Netflix Conductor. Scales really well and has a GitHub actions style agent that can be used to run commands orchestrated by the platform. It’s probably the cheapest commercial tool you can get.

I thought what you are seeing is personalized for you.

It’s sarcasm.

Could this be a strategy to get access to more code than what is available in just Github? More training data means better models I assume.

My hunch is that it should be easy to decipher if it’s a AI video based on how the frames transitions.

I have to admit that I’m inspired to get rid of k8s for a couple of situations based on all the recent posts. There are some clusters that are not required and costs way too much to run compared to a single VM.

I wonder when will the scammer also create an AI scammer.

Joke aside, is this going to be cost effective? What would it cost to keep a scammer on the phone for an hour? Who will pay this bill?

If AI continues to deliver what it promises, I suppose there is a not too distant future where even Senior Engineers are not needed?

What are some real world use cases you see customers using this for?

From what I have been seeing there are a few real use cases:

1. Customer service - seems like natural language processing by AI could be a better offering than someone manually trying to resolve problems. I have been in front of many CS agents who couldn't do what I wanted them to do. Untrained CS agents, non native speakers, or people who just don't care enough to help.

2. Internet search - I don't have to search through arbitrary articles and text to get the answer I want. Now its not always accurate or the latest, but still better than scrolling through Google search (feel bad for the publishers and writers though - they aren't getting the same ad views as before and clearly not ideal)

3. Summarizing - AI does a fabulous job here - TLDR and more.

4. Rewriting things to a better tone - AI is going an amazing job here, every time I get stuck on how to write something OpenAI has helped me. Now I don't use the output as it is, but it gives me an idea of how to write my own message.

5. NLP interface to devices / tools = I think this is a really valuable use case.

Almost everything I suggested here is pointing to a $20 or a fixed monthly subscription for individual user. I don't know if its an "enterprise" need. Except for the customer service use case.

Not sure why people say they are getting “smart”.

It’s more data and the data based probably of the next word leading to this. There isn’t a lot of intelligence in the model as such. It’s not thinking on its own that hey today I want to start working out so that I can lose my beer belly.

I do hope this is seriously considered. Just how and why does it make any sense to not be fully aware of what’s around your car? 12 cones to see what’s ahead of you on the road? Wow.

The adjustment of heights to make the trucks safer (for others) seems very minimal.

2 hour trip each way and I will never go into work :)

I’m with you here. Just my own situation and not trying to say it has to be the same for all.

I like the clean separation from home and personal stuff. I like my office building, the view and being among people. There is a lot of stuff that makes it fun compared to being at home.

My commute is short so that works out for me. I also feel a lot more productive at work as my role involves a lot of collaboration to see things through.

Is there a chance Apple will pay Masimo for the technology and resume sales?

I am curious why that didn’t happen. If this is an exec’s decision and this leads to bigger losses than paying Masimo, I wonder what would happen the people involved in the decisions.

One of my favorite workflow engines that has a really simple way to do things was not listed here, so I'll call it out - Netflix Conductor (https://github.com/Netflix/conductor).

Its capabilities comes to light when you model really complex workflows and one real value is how its all very visual not just during modeling but when running it. The history remains visible and you can even see how the whole flow evolved.

You could also use Netflix Conductor which has typescript support and all the features listed here and more.
