The writing is rather low quality, but seems to be consistent with their other posts.

Maybe to give credit they are being purposefully vague about details to avoid giving away the bait but still seem like you could give me details without literally copy and pasting the attack.

if you're going to lobby that criticism, you should atleast offer an alternative definition of popular...unless you're saying your usage of a tool defines its popularity

async python is awful. to me it is a by default avoid. and when you can't avoid, use only where it provides outsized benefit.

I think profiling is probably the lowest value good here, but would be willing to hear out stories of AI middleware applications that found value in that.

Cancelling tasks is probably the highest value good here, but I think the contending runtimes (TS/Python) all prefer using 3P libraries to handle this kind of stuff, so probably not the biggest deal.

Being able to write good Go code is pretty cool though; I don't write enough to make a judgement there.

by your logic, only considering part of the argument is as good as considering the entire argument.

how do you recommend working with Cloud Tasks?

raw dogging gcloud? Terraform? or something more manageable?

I've been curious for one of my smaller projects, but I am worried about adopting more GCPisms.

Not really familiar with this space but I think the entire Dojo/DIY strategy was kicked off because Elon wanted to not get cornered on supply or cost by nvidia. And infiniband is an nvidia technology, so they wouldn’t use that simply from strategic POV.

Are there other technologies they could have used?

Also, the 80us is supposed to be the worst case, where typical is supposed to be <10us. Again not knowing anything about infiniband, what’s the typical perf? I tried to google but the people who are talking about it are in the know in ways I’m not.

Thanks!

Every time I’ve tried to do that, it doesn’t carry over.

Does it support all the configurations?
