Same - their status page doesn't give me hope that this will be resolved any time soon.

Is anyone seeing improvement - their last message implying a capacity problem would suggest some are actions are running?

Yes - experiencing issues with the site and github actions for the past ~10 minutes

To me, it sounds like you need professional experience on your resume so that should be your goal. However, professional experience != a full time software engineer role. Can you find something really small that pays from a freelance site? Maybe it's just a python script that takes 4 hours and pays $10 - but with that you are a professional software engineer. Do you anyone who owns a website for a business? Ask them if you can do some really basic work for $1 - because if you do that, you're a professional software engineer.

Once you have some professional experience on your resume, it should get a little easier - it's still going to take some time and grit, but it should work out.

I have access to the model via the web client and it does show the thought process along the way. It shows a little icon that says things like "Examining parser logic", "Understanding data structures"...

However, once the answer is complete the chain of thought is lost

I do - I now have a "More models" option where I can select 01-preview

Does this mean that, theoretically, this could lead to the ability to build MacOS apps in higher languages that interoperate well with C such as Python? I know you can build MacOS apps with Python now, but does this potentially improve the experience?

You should add screenshots/gifs so that people can see what it does

What is the use case for a C++ web framework? Would higher level languages/frameworks make use of this to do some of the heavy lifting? Would a company migrate to something like this once at scale? Or, are there just some people/companies who prefer to use C++?

Ok I feel like an idiot, but where is the code in the repo that produces the GUI - ie where is the Suitcase code?

Has the R core team publicly stated that they disagree with direction Wickham's Tidyverse is going? Genuinely asking as I love the Tidyverse, but would be interested to hear arguments against it.

Based on what? Nothing points to a higher mortality rate - but some countries are admittedly not testing a lot. Even if you quadruple the estimated mortality rate, the UK numbers would still be under-represented.

Or those places aren't testing? The UK has ~62,000 confirmed cases and ~7,100 deaths - that implies a > 10% mortality rate which is definitely not true. Why is the mortality rate so high? Because they only test those with severe symptoms - the actual number of cases is much higher than 62,000.
