What are you doing to avoid sending your personal info to non-trusted "whatever models?" I wouldn't trust some of the cheaper models to have zero data retention, etc.

Can you talk a little about this? Are you committing transaction logs?

Disagree. I've seen so many PR slop grenades -- they are essentially unreadable. I'd prefer a paragraph or two human written explanations. I suspect people are just taking the default AI text -- which is way too wordy.

> using a database engine we built on top of FoundationDB: a distributed key-value store

it would be interesting to see their experiences with using FoundationDB. this feels like a tech that is amazing if only it had more information and practical examples of how to use, leverage and manage it. the client is complicated and needs expertise to use correctly. would love it if there was more info about it all.

> antitrust laws. Even more so since they’re bundling their AI products with their search monopoly.

couldn't this just be framed / spun as just using search data as training? i don't seem being bundled enough to run afoul with anti-trust.

> In my last performance review, my manager was actually surprised when I told him that I am now more a manager of my own work than actually doing the work.

I think this is very telling. Unless you have a good manager who is paying attention, a lot of them are clueless and just see the hype of 10x ing your developers and don't care about the nuance of (as they say) all the surrounding bits to writing code. And unfortunately, they just repeat this to the people above them, who also read the hype and just see $$ of reducing headcount. (sorry, venting a little)

I've been through a Vista Equity acquisition. It was not pretty -- they slashed, consolidated and basically ran their one-size-fits-all playbook. The brought in their crew -- which is totally expected -- and then bought other companies in the same vertical. Of course, they all had different tech stacks.

(like ya said, operators is the right word. it felt icky)

At least for the first year, the acquired teams were able to run more or less the same but with new hyped-up-overly-aggressive Vista hotshot managers and then the sh*t-from-above just started raining down.

Also, they hired the worst sw architect / person I've ever had to work with. He wasted so much time and money.

Thanks for the reply. Summary: Here's this really cool thing we're doing! Oh, are you wrote something exotic for it? Nope, just regular Erlang goodness that's been around 20 years.

(Disclaimer: Newbie checking but still curious).

Are you using libluster or Distributed Erlang to reach the clusters? Or just simple networking over the Fly network.

> That will find or place an Elixir process on the cluster and rpc the target node with our code.

Is this similar to what you did with Flame? Or just a refinement of that idea.

Interesting project. I'm glad Vue is getting the same attention as the Svelte one. And props for digging in to optimize the payloads, and making it diff-able.

Can you just drop existing Vue components in there? Or are their LiveVue specific things you need to add?

Would love to read about some of the techniques for how you accomplished this.
