How quickly we forget. He was a compromise in resolving the board coup.

The lack of self-awareness with this post…

Never mind the shameless self-promotion, doing it while decrying self-promotion means I’m never looking at your app, full-stop.

I hear ya. I've done some crazy things with `git reflog` (which I always pronounce git re-flog instead of ref-log) but it is not fun.

There's the usual cognitive shift, and in my case a bit of a best-practice shift I had to go through to get comfortable with `jj` -- specifically, keeping the repo directory pristine (and putting my temp output in a git-ignored dir, or outside the repo) because /everything/ is tracked. Flip side being, I've forgotten to `git add` new files at least a few times a year, and now that won't be an issue.

But yeah, can highly recommend, and I'm excited to start to jump between multiple open branches^Wbookmarks at will and learn more about the intricacies of conflict management (and the original link is a good glimpse at that!)

Literally `jj undo`

There's a whole operation log (`jj op log`), as another sequence of actions, and you can undo them. It gets crazier from there, but I've also been enjoying jujutsu lately and I had to RTFM a good couple of times to get comfortable with it.

Oof. I’m sorry.

Oh, dreidel as a drinking game sounds both horrific and hilarious. Here’s how I thought of it:

Everyone starts with infinite gelt — or at least a liver — and ante/paying into the pot is either taking a drink or paying a drink token. The four actions are then:

- Nothing

- Acquire a newly created token

- Everybody else: drink, or exile a token

- You: drink, or exile a token

Don’t need to run PRISM to figure how quickly that devolves.

“One, two, three, four

Who’s punk what’s the score?”

Get outta here with the gatekeeping

The Go is the more mature implementation; it's generally a lot easier to refactor Go as you're figuring things out and then can build the Rust version (which is a good bit faster)

Sharing e2e test suites (realistically, two different test binaries to run at CI time) is something I'm cleaning up right now.

Wow, so many haters :(

I love Rye. It does what it says on the tin. It makes the whole venv/Python-version/packaging process actually pleasant, and it’s invisible to someone used to Python-official usage (pyproject.toml et al). And it makes Python feel like Cargo, which is a great thing to work with too.

Thank you! As you keep posting your progress, and I hope you do, adding these references would probably help warding off crusty fuddy-duddys like me (or at least give them more to research either way) ;)

Appreciate the link; but would still like to know how well it works.

If you have a link for that, I’d be much obliged

> Thy are binary vectors with 768 dimensions, which takes up 96 bytes (768 / 8 = 96).

I guess I’m confused. This is honestly the problem that most vector storage faces (“curse of dimensionality”) let alone the indexing.

I assume that you meant 768 dimensions * 8 bytes (for a f64) which is 6144 bytes. Usually, these get shrunk with some (hopefully minor) loss, so like a f32 or f16 (or smaller!).

If you can post how you fit 768 dimensions in 96 bytes, even with compression or trie-equivalent amortization, or whatever… I’d love to hear more about that for another post.

Ninja edit: Unless you’re treating each dimension as one-bit? But then I still have questions around retrieval quality

The article is right; I do not like ddevault, and refuse to use his software on my machines as a result. I will never pay him money.

The article is also right that Redis is kinda 'complete' and merely staying the course and slowly maintaining bugs/CVEs/etc. is a vaild type of fork.

If Redict happens to become the standard 'open' alternative (eg, OpenSearch, OpenTofu, etc), I'll suck it up and use his fork. We need less SSPL BS and more just 'complete' software. I may not like that jerk, but I don't like the jerks who made the re-licensing decision much, much more.

This is my problem too. I love Ubiquiti's stuff when it works, but my home switches 10Gig at the moment, and 10Gig from my ISP is coming soon. Right now I run a full-on firewall 1U main server/router that can do that, but I'd drop it in a heartbeat if Ubiquiti had a reasonably priced (sub $1K) 10Gig version of exactly this product.
