> the most important feature for agent performance is the popularity of the language
This is explicitly called out as only weakly supported in that blog post:
- You should use a popular language
- There's weak support for this statementComment · 4 months ago
Complement AI (https://complement.ai) | Member of Technical Staff | San Francisco or New York City | ONSITE | Full-time | $150K - $300K + Equity
Complement builds AI that autonomously operates factories. We connect the fragmented systems inside a factory (ERP, MES, PLCs, spreadsheets, etc) into a unified data layer, then deploy AI agents that optimize decisions across the whole operation for profit.
As a Member of Technical Staff, you'll work across the stack connecting factory data sources, building simulations to optimize scheduling, embedding with factory operators, and designing interfaces that surface recommendations. We care about what you've shipped under ambiguity more than which of those you specialize in.

Sensationalist title, the actual behavior described in the issue this links to is:

This might be of interest to others: Last night I stumbled across Hornbeam, a library in a similar vein from the author of Gunicorn that handles WSGI / ASGI apps as well as a specific wrapper for ML inference

I think you misunderstand how mesh VPNs work. Their primary purpose is as a control plane - introducing peers to each other so they can either communicate directly or via a relay (eg DERP) via per-node encryption. They should have no overhead compared to a single point to point encrypted tunnel like wireguard, because the “mesh” features are not in the data path.
The only real difference here is how the vpn product implements wireguard: userspace or kernel space, and how well tuned that implementation is. It might make sense to compare wireguard implementations, but (afaik) all are using one of several open source ones. Tailscale did some work to improve performance that they blogged about here https://tailscale.com/blog/more-throughput

It looks like the host kernel is not in full control – there is a EL2-level hypervisor, pKVM [1] that is actually the highest-privilege domain. This is pretty similar to the Xen architecture [1] where the dom0 linux os in charge of managing the machine is running as a guest of the hypervisor.

For those of us that don’t work at AWS, their docs are actually quite good at describing the Nitro system, very interesting read: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/whitepapers/latest/security-desi...

You might be interested in learning about Erlang – it supports hot code reloads natively: https://oozou.com/blog/understanding-elixir-otp-applications...

Erik also made "Wanderers" about this feeling, quoting Carl Sagan. Highly recommend watching it: https://erikwernquist.com/wanderers
