Latest Haiku (smallest Anthropic Model) is version 4.5, they haven't released a new version, hence the comparison to that.

0vermorrow — Wed, 23 Jul 2025 11:47:08 +0000

I'm eagerly awaiting for Qwen 3 coder being available on Cerebras.

I run plenty of agent loops and the speed makes a somewhat interesting difference in time "compression". Having a Claude 4 Sonnet-level model running at 1000-1500 tok/s would be extremely impressive.

To FEEL THE SPEED, you can either try it yourself on Cerebras Inference page, through their API, or for example on Mistral / Le Chat with their "Flash Answers" (powered by Cerebras). Iterating on code with 1000 tok/s makes it feel even more magical.

It's funny how we went from using iPod Nano as a watch with a third party case, to using an Apple Watch as an iPod Nano with a third party case.

Well it's not broken, I'd assume they limit the `max_tokens` to minimize costs.

Are there any users here who actually ran Brave ad campaigns?

I'm wondering what is your overall experience, how much of your ad campaign traffic were bots and how did it fare compared to other ad platforms.

So after the authors disclosed this issue to AWS it was fixed and CloudFront no longer caches 400 Bad Request by default, also from the paper linked on the website [0]:

""" Amazon Web Services (AWS). We reported this issue to the AWSSecurity team. They confirmed the vulnerabilities on CloudFront. The AWS-Security team stopped caching error pages with the status code 400 Bad Request by default. However, they took over three months to fix our CPDoS reportings. Unfortunately, the overall disclosure process was characterized by a one-way communication. We periodically asked for the current state, without getting much information back from the AWS-Security team. They never contacted us to keep us up to date with the current process.

New comment by 0vermorrow in "Neuralink Live Stream [video]"

0vermorrow — Wed, 17 Jul 2019 03:24:38 +0000

While we wait for the delayed stream to start, it's worth taking a peek at their job board which has some interesting bits of information in the job descriptions: https://jobs.lever.co/neuralink

For example:

> "As an Optical Engineer at Neuralink you will develop custom optics and imaging systems used directly in our surgical robot, and associated consumables manufacturing systems." [0]

EDIT: I guess the article from The Verge linked in the other comments sheds even more light on that particular bit:

> "[...] the company has developed ”a neurosurgical robot capable of inserting six threads (192 electrodes) per minute [automatically],” according to the white paper. " [1]

Similarly described in the Bloomberg article which was just released [2]

It's probably because i use xterm-kitty.

Awesome work on aerc, looking forward for continued development.

0vermorrow — Tue, 04 Jun 2019 02:20:44 +0000

Yeah, the problem is I am on OSX, and I actually had to compile scdoc myself without the -static flag (missing libraries).

Also, I had to run it as:

  TERM=xterm-256color aerc

On OSX, otherwise got:

  panic: terminal entry not found

Love the idea, and I really will give this a go as a daily driver.

Just a small feedback: I had trouble with one of the requirements -> scdoc, didn't know what exactly that is (Googling didn't help), so might be worth to provide a direct link in the README.md to https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/scdoc/

New comment by 0vermorrow in "On SGQR, Singapore's unified QR code payment system"

0vermorrow — Fri, 21 Sep 2018 08:20:51 +0000

Again, it's mainly for online payments, the others are an addition, and a welcomed one at that if you forget your card (or don't have Google / Apple Pay) when you're out somewhere.

New comment by 0vermorrow in "On SGQR, Singapore's unified QR code payment system"

0vermorrow — Thu, 20 Sep 2018 12:36:03 +0000

It is quite well accepted, as in:

- the biggest Polish banks (whose initiative this was) support it, and the ATMs (Euronet included) usually have that as an option.

- ALL of the Polish payment providers / gateways support BLIK.

- Poland is quite infamous for supporting contactless payments [0] and most of the POS terminals support BLIK as well.

- For merchants it also makes sense as there are no chargebacks.

I do concede that for BLIK vs. contactless payments in the brick & mortar shop the latter always would win for quick payments, but why does it seem high friction to you?

0vermorrow — Thu, 20 Sep 2018 07:58:52 +0000

Also on a related note woth mentioning is Poland's BLIK[0] it's a very nice system based on generated one-time codes that are confirmed via your mobile device.

It works for online payments, ATM withdrawals and even in brick & mortar shops.

The flow for online looks like this:

1. Go to the Payments / billing page.

2. It is almost prevalent now that you just see a BLIK input box immediately, and the other standard "pick your payment options" box below.

3. Fire up your bank's mobile app, navigate to the BLIK tab (normally a swipe away), grab the 6 digits (or copy)

4. Put them in the box (or paste)

5. Press OK on your mobile device (you can even 'trust' your browser after succesful payment, such that you don't have to confirm the next payments on your mobile device with some monetary limits).

6. Done.

It usually takes less than 30 seconds to do all of this. No need to put your CC details or anything in.

New comment by 0vermorrow in "Tesla Accounting Chief, HR Head Resign on the Same Day; Stock Plunges"

0vermorrow — Fri, 07 Sep 2018 14:00:29 +0000

I completely agree with this.

I feel him taking some time off and easing off would benefit everybody. He is known for his super focused and driven way of work, and as he himself said:

“If other people are putting in 40 hour workweeks and you’re putting in 100 hour workweeks, then even if you’re doing the same thing … you will achieve in four months what it takes them a year to achieve.”

But he is only human, not a robot (to the best of my knowledge), and sleeping under the desk in the factory overworked will stress out everybody and the people in their close environment no matter how logical-thinking person you are. Building your company in a constant fight-or-flight mode is a disaster in the making.

Balance is important. For the sake of sanity, health and actual productivity.

Although this is completely anecdotal, I had a similar "100 hour never stop working" approach with my initial start-up ventures (obviously not of the scale of Tesla or SpaceX) which ended up me destroying my personal relationships and I cannot say my productivity was off the roof.

Then I slowly transitioned into having a proper balanced day, with exercise, meditation and PROPER time off. Also having healthy work habits inspired a lot by Learning How to Learn (popular MOOC on coursera) and work by Cal Newport ( Deep Work ) with a sprinkle of org-mode here and there.

I have to say that first time in my life, I feel happy, fulfilled and proud of my "weekly output"
