Or just being able to save/load creations would be nice :)

Apparently by taking prior art (DNS, server,user interface), and packaging it into a single "product" (DNS software optimized for specific hardware) - You've created a new thing.

INNOVATION!

Disagree. The fight with ISIS had a strong cyber dimension, with blockchain being a major funding source for them.

Cellphone tracking/hacking was also key, and multiplayer games were recruiting arenas.

Before that cyber played a key role in other conflicts, especially "cold" ones (re: Stuxnet).

It sometimes feels like London is a theme-park designed to separate people from their money and entertain the Plebs workforce.

This (and the giant Ferris wheel) certainly don't help.

You'll get in trouble with Big Solar for disrupting their production!

I think RAG approach with Vector DB is more likely. Just like when you add a file to your prompt / custom GPTs.

Adding the entire file (or memory in this case) would take up too much of the context. So just query the DB and if there's a match add it to the prompt after the conversation started.

The thing already ignores my custom instructions and prompt, why would this make any difference?

Mac is a sickness. Even M$ play nicer and do less damage to the tech ecosystem than this walled garden of incompatible code and build process.

Managing to break Rust's cross-platform compatibility is no small feat! "congrats".

When people are paying you.

People often have it backwards, thinking they'll start a business, THEN get customers. That is often wrong.

o rly? what happens if they fails? can you control the backoff period? can you schedule another job in the event it fails? what if it fails before starting the function, so your in-code error handling isn't triggered? is there a "dead-letter" queue? will the next scheduled job run if the previous run failed? should it? can you define if it should or not? can you view history of executed jobs? what if your logging function that saves that history fails? can anyone add jobs or just you/superadmin? should they? and more and more.

And these are just ones I personally ran into using GCP schedulers, pub/sub and functions.

See, what you're doing is re-inventing the wheel. No matter how cool your tool is - there's always work in the edge cases beyond just running the job.

Hell, if I was eating steaks every day my mood would improve too...

So like sand-casting, only worse.
