Big fan of this fork, been using it for everything for the last couple of weeks.

Went from codex/claude code -> opencode -> pi -> oh-my-pi

Try Starlink?

Always fun to see one of my professors from the quite tiny, but awesome computer science department at St Andrews on HN!

Sorry, yes, was referring specifically to the Sunil Tagare version.

This latest revision of Jupiter is apparently 400G, as is the ConnectX-7, A3 Ultra will have 8 of them!

I’ve heard stories from people who have worked at Hanford, and it seems like a lot of that money is being squandered. Excess caution, basically everything is radioactive waste, and just overall wasteful spending for decades.

They called out Flexential in the post?

Pretty wild for a single fiber, but super involved, using 5 different doping type amps. Current systems use just EDFAs (Erbium). These guys used Erbium, Thallium, Bismuth, and others.

I updated my map for AWS in Northern Virginia -- came up with 74 buildings (another source says 76, so i'll call it directionally correct). If I scale my sq ft by ~5% to account for missing buildings, we get 11,500,000sq ft in the northern virginia area for AWS.

I'll finish my other maps and share them later...

Yep, I am aware, I have a square footage multiplier for their multi-story buildings.

I’m not sure mapping VPCs is super helpful - the physical infra is fairly distinct.

AWS has also disclosed 20 million Nitro adapters have been deployed, so you can do some backwards napkin math from that.

Yep.
