Yeah, the biology guardrails are so primitive and so heavy-handed that it makes it useless for pretty much anything.

It's effectively the same as the GB10 in the DGX Spark (Blackwell architecture, 6,144 CUDA cores, perf-wise comparable to an RTX 5070).

I've found it very useful for running big models, but it's not a screaming powerhouse in terms of raw compute.

As a bonus, it looks like they reset limits a few minutes ago -- I went from 53% of my weekly allotment to 0%.

> This liberal zoning system is reinforced by private access to city planning powers. Thirty percent of Japan’s urban land has been subject to land readjustment, where agreement among two thirds of residents and landowners in an area is enough to allow its replanning, including compulsorily taking and demolishing land for amenities and infrastructure.

I think this is the key paragraph because (like it or not) a lot of Americans would be philosophically opposed to this sort of process (the Kelo decision on eminent domain notwithstanding.)

“From the depths of the WEB in Castle Evans, I summon thee, oh car, oh cdr; may thine parentheses ever match!”

“At this point, private individuals will not be able to obtain licences to the NanoMi platform.”

Does “open source” have a different meaning in Canadian?

I do hope that this leads to improvement in the HIP/ROCm software ecosystem.

It’s definitely lacking in stability and polish compared to what NVIDIA has built. (Ask me why I’m on my third rebuild of LAMMPS this morning…)

My introduction to NFS was first at Berkeley, and then at Sun. It more or less just worked. (Some of the early file servers at Berkeley were drastically overcapacity with all the diskless Sun-3/50s connected, but still.)

And of course I still use it every day with Amazon EFS; Happy Birthday, indeed!

I was using the definition of “let the LLM take the lead in writing the code, but review it afterwards“ so I don’t think our opinions are in conflict.

I think of coding agents as “talented junior engineers with no fatigue, but sometimes questionable judgment.”

I don't think we're at odds: I think "vibe coding" is strictly for fun and for prototypes. However, people will misuse any tool, so having utilities to mitigate the risk isn't a bad thing.

I'm going to push back hard on the folks dunking on "vibe coders" -- I have been programming longer than most of you have been alive, and there are times when I absolutely do vibe coding:

1) unfamiliar framework 2) just need to build a throwaway utility to help with a main task (and I don't want to split my attention) 3) for fun: I think of it as "code sculpting" rather than writing

So this is absolutely a utility I would use. (Kudos to the OP.)

Remember the second-best advice for internet interactions (after Wheaton's Law): "Ssssshh. Let people enjoy things."

Just the headline itself makes me think of the “Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere” and we all know how that turned out.
