This is actually awesome news believe it or not. I'm excited b/c i think there's a lot of potential in the world w/ deno's team being on solid footing w/ cloudflare.

I know the runtime is in trouble, but i'm not as worried tbh b/c the principles deno championed are going to keep going.

wow! i’ve been using deno for a long time, and one of my fav features is compiling a binary. i didn’t see anything about that, but might have missed something… do you all plan to support this?

this isn't strictly true. not that it thinks, but it can reason about the tokens that led to the outcome.

I've been out of the game for a bit but it's great to hear.

This is the least informed take i've ever seen.

I worked at fb, and I'm 100% certain we sponsored VLC and OBS at the time. It would be strange if we didn't sponsor FFMPEG, but regardless (as the article says) we definitely got out of our internal fork and upstreamed a lot of the changes.

I worked on live, and everyone in the entire org worships ffmpeg.

even marvel villain thanos was given a plausible motivation.

i don’t think if you actually knew him as a person you’d think this was a reasonable perception.

same. this is about losing a negotiation and saving face / exacting revenge.

i don’t get it. what’s his motive in your view? he literally has no shares in openai.

I wanted the AOL one to say "Welcome" before "you've got mail!" lol

The last 3 years of LLM progress, to me, feel like 1994-1998.
