same. substitute VC with upper management and I (corporate dev through and through) became more queasy as I read. product and strategic mismanagement is the real deal regardless of the source of capital

my most mind blowing recent development here was testing the Gemma 4 models at release for vision and image recognition vs some benchmarks I had from using Gemma 3 for the same tasks. Gemma 4 is significantly faster and massively more accurate, to a level where I fundamentally can finally turn off my wifi and run a batch of my photos through the local model and trust the results for the extensive classification that Gemma seems well suited to handle. incredible times for local LLMs

two well-balanced takes making me think I should embrace the fun parts of this design and worry less about the risks! it’s a pretty cool idea and impressive it works

was hoping to find at least one “cmon this is easy to avoid with X thing in the kernel/OS” info nugget dropped

really impressed with this. the author discusses on Reddit how they built it with Unity which I think is super cool and a really good use case for a game engine

You are correct, C# straddles that line better than any other language right now imo thanks to the APIs you linked. There was a good write up about this Rust vs C# Span comparison on HN a few weeks ago but the link escapes me

Well five is about the amount of sales people I remember joining an absolutely awful call with them a few years ago, so that’s my guess (edit: lol at getting downvoted for relaying an actual experience that happened. been using Vagrant since the original hobo logo circa 2012-2013 and have always been a HC fan, get off your high horse)

Nope totally agree, can’t just do videos myself either unless it’s a high level systems topic with visuals. Need to get into the code too

They have done this previously for dual socket Xeons. Historical precedence doesn’t necessarily hold here, but in fact, it’s been done on the “cheese graters” previously
