Seems about right

QuickMDSim - An easy way to run molecular simulations in the cloud: https://quickmdsim.com

This simplifies the setup for researchers who want to simulate materials science problems like battery electrode performance on GPUs with a simple usage-based pricing model instead of traditional HPC

The central point, that working with agents is some tried and true variation of existing processes, is incorrect.

Managing agents has some similarities with EM and program management but a whole lot of other dimensions like token use, avoiding drift, successful concurrency at scale, variations in prompting, testing, evaluation, etc., not to mention that the agents are hyperintelligent coders with zero common sense and a penchant for extremely literal interpretation and ultra-verbosity.

I think explicit management of the event loop and the associated potential for grievous bugs has a lot to do with it.

Construction costs have been outpacing headline inflation by a huge amount. This has accrued to costs of repairs easily exceeding 20-30% over a few years ago.

I applaud the aim to make lean and fast websites, but the lack of timer and drag+drop on this game makes it unusable, so I think this actually makes the reverse point -- one should not put non-functional requirements ahead of the function of a product. In other words, this was not a good compromise.

Ah, that makes more sense -- it might be a good idea to integrate with the upstream library as a submodule rather than lifting the actual .cpp/.h files into the bindings repo. That way people know the upstream C++ code is from a much more active project.

Despite my snarky comments, thank you for contributing to the python ecosystem, this does seem like a cool project for high performance URL parsing!

This is the commit history: https://github.com/TkTech/can_ada/commits/main/

I guess you are right that there are 2 commits from a different dev, so it is technically not a solo project. I still wouldn't ever use this in production code.
