One thing that bothered me enough to comment on: "transcoding" doesn't seem like the right term in this context. "Encode/decode" is technically correct, but "compress/decompress" would have made the intent much clearer.

Same here, I’m not experiencing so much friction to justify looking for an alternative

Changing the port is not the kind of security measure that will consume a lot of the attacker resources

The news headline is misleading, it does not reflect the actual article title, which is much closer to what they truly did.

They did not replaced RAG because they are still using chunk and embedding. What they changed is the interface.

thank you for sharing your experience

Is there any concern/issue regarding Claude’s context limit?

For anyone that like to do DIY, that's not a work tool, that's a play tool that is coincidentally a work tool to do work.

Not off topics at all. That massive investment must be baked by something with a bigger ROI than just a chatbot.

The same day, a post on reddit was about: "We built 3B and 8B models that rival GPT-5 at HTML extraction while costing 40-80x less - fully open source" [1].

Not fully equivalent to what is doing Skyvern, but still an interesting approach.

XSLT/XPath have evolved since XSLT 1.0.

Features are now available like key (index) to greatly speedup the processing. Good XSLT implementation like Saxon definitively helps as well on the perf aspect.

When it comes to transform XML to something else, XSLT is quite handy by structuring the logic.

Appreciate your input, but if you haven’t actually tested the VSCode integration, it’s hard to compare. Reading a feature list isn’t the same as using the tool.

Not comparable.

I did test VSCode and IntelliJ on agentic, MCP, and IntelliJ is for the moment far behind.

Is your affirmation based on a testing of both plugin? I'm genuily wondering the plugin quality as IntelliJ plugin is still in beta and the VScode one not

VSCode is really the primary platform for AI/agentic plugins, receiving priority over other IDEs such as IntelliJ, this is understandable as it is free, supporting many languages, and really good.

As a long-time IntelliJ user, I’m beginning to question whether it still makes sense to remain on this platform.

Perhaps I’m too impatient and agentic plugins may reach parity on IntelliJ within a year but a year is quite a long time to wait in this really fast-evolving landscape.

> Tourism often keeps a city's economy healthy

I would not say "healthy", there is many situation where it is wealthy but not really healthy

Most of the case it is because more building is simply not possible.

And anyway as long as there is no restrictions on the day-rental, investor will choose the option in their economical self-interest. Restriction must apply to force long term rentals.

Same feeling, so much words and story telling just for that.

In addition the graph "Massive VRAM Savings" graph states what looks like a tautology, reducing from 16 bits to 4 bits leads unsurprisingly to a x4 reduction in memory usage

It seems quite logical to me as well. An LLM is not a logical computing system but it has the knowledge on how to do a multiplication

The exact definition of a useful heuristic, "good enough"

"Write a protocol and GraphQL", god damn it escalates quickly.

Fortunately, there are intermediate steps.

aws, azure and gcp aren't cheap for sure, but for sure they are doing a lot of money

Definitively agree. Being blunt, too direct is just the opposite of a good and effective communication.

Genuine question: would these batteries be always connected to the grid with enough power and capacity to feed the demand?

Batteries cannot sustain the electricity consumption of a whole nation. Maybe in many years, but right now, no sign that it can, whereas plant can

I had assumed that Datadog was using Elasticsearch as a storage solution, including for metrics. Seems not.

You don't need event sourcing to organize payrolls event "at scale".

From nothing to result rarely happens in real live. I hardly see someone to start/stop a program per unit task (like piping commands).

0.3s is significant for a task that only takes 1.14s

I would be happier to pay a small fee per article I want to read. But the norm seems a monthly subscription.
