I'm not against a fundamentals-based argument. The revenue growth is wild and their margins are reported to be great. But the existential concern remains: what happens if models start plateauing?
I could be wrong, but the margins are so good because there isn't a "substitute" for the frontier models. The performance difference between the latest Opus and a more open model provider is large enough to justify the extra cost. If that difference shrinks, I think the cost people are willing to pay will go way down.
Out of those renames, I agree with car->first and progn->do. setq is ugly, but I think using def is maybe questionable. lambda I would have just kept the same.
Disclosure: I work with Siperb, which is mentioned in the closing paragraph as a managed offering built on Browser-Phone. The body of the article is a neutral three-way comparison of the open-source options. Happy to answer questions about any of the three projects.
What does revenue have to do with it? Mercedes has a revenue of $130 billion, profit of $5 billion and a market cap of $56 billion.
According to your logic, it should have a market cap of $2.6 trillion.
Conservative is to look at P/E, which is 10 for Mercedes.
Anthropic isn't even a growth stock, since it has already been force fed to everyone with one of the largest marketing and coercion campaigns in history.
>The letter further asserts claims under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. Adafruit accessed only information that Flux’s own systems made publicly available through a server misconfiguration
In a world where it's increasingly overlooked, I'm glad the author mentions disabling it respecting user settings. I do think it should be reversed and only enabled with the `@media (prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference)`, but that is the opinion of someone who gets negative value from animations and is bemused by how much dev and compute time is spent on them.
Qt and GTK has bindings for a lot of languages. calibre is Qt built with python. And GTK has GI which allows to basically autogenerate bindings. It’s not plug and play, but it’s not difficult either.
How is that the answer when even parents don't have the right tools for this. are parents supposed to surveil their kids 24/7 and monitor their internet traffic?
Why is the internet special, do you also believe physical stores shouldn't check for ID for cigarettes and alcohol, because the solution is better parenting?
> The "copyleft" concept was specifically designed to create an ecosystem that behaved as if copyright didn't apply in the first place.
And if copyright didn't exist in the first place we wouldn't be having this conversation, because the models created by all the token providers will be open to all for whatever use that anyone wanted.
But it does exist, and within this framework, the creator gets to say how you may redistribute their IP, and "We compressed it very much" isn't an out.
That said, depending on the construction type of the building you’re in, it may not be accurate.
For me, if it’s chilly overnight and only a bit too hot during the daytime, the best play is to open the windows to the too cold air in the morning; blow it through thoroughly; then shut the windows around 9am, before it starts to get meaningfully warmer. That traps the cool air inside and can sometimes get you through a full day without AC when having the windows open would be far too hot.
But that works far better in brick or concrete construction than wood.
Mine was like an ancient remnant from the soviet union, dry as anything but wickedly funny, used to yell at us if we pronounced the Cyrillics wrong, or more usually if we did not use capitals for units named after people; I can still hear his rebuke "why do we capitalize Newtons? BECAUSE HE WAS A GREAT MAN".
There is also fennel, earlier language originally by same developer, that is similar, but compiles to, and is fully implemented in, Lua. No standard library of its own so missing many nice things like the parser library from janet, but it is good for writing scripts for things that embed Lua.
It's a self-hosted, open-source tool for indexing, storing, and querying logs. Rootprint is built on Quickwit, which indexes and searches logs directly on object storage (S3 or anything S3-compatible). Compute and storage are fully decoupled.
Quickwit handles the search engine really well, but it leaves the rest to you. Rootprint sits on top and fills in the gaps: authentication, gated OLTP/HTTP routes, a usable search UI, log detail views, and visualisation. The current focus is the log search experience specifically; traces are on the roadmap but not there yet.
Stack, was chosen to be light and fast: backend is Hono on Bun, frontend is Svelte 5 + SvelteKit with Tailwind/DaisyUI.
It's running in one production deployment doing ~50GB/day with live users, so it's past the toy stage, but it's still early.
> I guess "Jewish has nothing to do with support for the Jewish state" would have sounded too silly
It is not silly and it is true. In the same way as many Muslims don’t want to live in a theocracy and many Christians are not fundamentalists. Being a Jew, a Sionist, supporting the principle of Israel, and supporting its current apartheid iteration are all very different things.
Having a bad boss has always been a top reason people leave a job. In academia it can be fatal because the boss has so much power and leaving for another job isnt always an option in a specialized field or a field where one institution is the leader, and moving would mean a huge step down in an early career.
The thing is that the IPOs necessitate a full release of their actual costs for inference and training. This by itself should be enough to pop the bubble, if the occasional bits of it we get are anything to go by.
There is a reason anthropic is still hiding those details:
> key details typically included in that form about a company’s operations — like potential risks to its business, executive compensation, and other financials — won’t become public until later on in the process
