I'm still not over her. 😭 The layers in the stack this belongs in cross ddr and pci and u.2 form factors. Optane, it wasn't you, the world just didn't understand you.
A requiem for Optane, Intel's KV cache killer that could have eased the RAM price crunch
With microscopic latencies and otherworldly write endurance, it was perfect for today's AI workloads – but gone before they arrived

This is actually a life goal, I'm low key (high key) dumbfounded. (rust oci conformant registry)
Y'all, the ai clanker that transcribes work meetings bowl'd me over with a transcription of my home grown "e2e" pronunciation several dozen times. Formally, i mean "eee-too-eee". My twangassbumkin is on the record as "EDE" and I can't even argue that's how the sound comes out when I say it 😭🤠😭

What if I told you we can just distribute docker container images in .deb packages and apt install docker.io/library/ubuntu Would you like that? Wanna try it? Tell me how jealous you are.

I'm curious if corporations know that AI is coming for their jobs too. The corporations themselves. When a company both operates on the same AI models as their competitors and also cuts human headcount, the concept of competition transforms into monotonic conformity with the competition.
I'm dizzy from IO_URING, rayon, tokio 😵💫 What I did discover, WRITING SOFTWARE IS HARD WORK (even with AI). What I did NOT expect to discover, was how related cloud scale microservice engineering is to writing local programs.

Hey, creative technologists, this is cool.
François Best@francoisbest.com · 3mo agoSomething awesome about Bluesky: 1. I see a post I'd like to load in my agent. 2. "wouldn't it be nice if I could give it the atproto link?" 3. Wait, markdown would be better, let's try renaming the domain to bsky.md on the off-chance… 4. It works 🤯
I've been developing on more modest hardware for the last few weeks which has inadvertently but appropriately forced more responsible system resource cost criteria. So that's great right? right? anyway no lessons learned.. 256GB nvme is terribly smol. I am spoiled how does anyone live like this.

Here's the problem. Watching me succeed. Watching me fail. They both look the same mid flight. Usually I can't even tell the difference.
The federal government of the United States of America is trying to make my existence an obscenity. This will result in genocide of a population. They are trying to make lgbtq existing illegal. After this, leaving the house will get the same obscenity laws. docs.fcc.gov/public/attac...

A $1K phone, blaring thousands worth in goods and subscription ads per day. Marketed as a lot of 'get things done' usefulness with a little bit of monetization. The problem is zero self awareness. The AI takeover will be identical in less than 2 years. Human centric tech is a social imperative.

Okay brief chitchat about slop machine clanker usage. I do use llm quite a bit for technical / verifiable tasks. Something like comparing implementation architectures is nice to rubber duck with RAG on the upstream source code and an LLM. I find it reasonably accurate. What are y'all doing?
