~51 in favor of the proposal. 20 of those specifically stated a desire for a blanket or as-strong-as-possible ban. 17 mentioned paying for the service. Many (sorry, didn't count these!) stated that the reason they joined SourceHut in the first place is because of the strongly opinionated culture and that an LLM ban aligns well with that.

~19 opposing the proposal to some degree. (I am counting Greg K-H's comments as a very weak "oppose".) 5 specifically mentioned paying for the service, and 1 stated they will stop paying if the policy takes effect. Some stated that they don't personally use LLMs, or don't like them or the effects they have, or would support a weaker ban (e.g. only ban fully vibe-coded projects or excessive resource usage).

I know people disagree over definitions of "hard fork". Gram does not send patches to Zed but does occasionally merge fixes from Zed. There is not any specific effort to keep (non-AI) feature parity.

Obviously they're all a bit cartoon-y, what else do you expect from SVGs. But I'm not convinced you could find a single human on Earth over the age of 4 who would seriously give the vehicle in GPT/1/whale/plane a 5/5.

Browse through the options a bit and the rest is not that much better. Grok/2/cat/plane, one of the more accurate planes, got a 2/5. For the most part, vehicles entirely missing do get a 1/5, except for whatever it is in Gemini/1/heron/plane scoring 4. Animals inside planes get completely random vehicle scores I guess.

The cats are all orange, except for a few of the skateboard cats that are black. I'm sure there's nothing to read into there...

Well, I've convinced myself that the next effective test of multimodal models will be whether their judgments of LLM-generated SVG airplanes are anywhere close to reasonable.

Here's the FCC's map of residential access to ≥1 Gbps fiber internet.

Of course most areas don't have it, but take a look at the Dakotas. I won't say it's better than NYC, but it may be as good in quite a large number of counties where the population density is ~1/km²=~2/mi². Most of the ISPs in those areas are coops like BEK, Consolidated Telcom, Golden West, etc. that have been making good use of state and federal grants. Gigabit internet is generally $100/month from them (in NYC it's $90/month if I understand correctly).

Would be interesting to compare this to areas of Europe with a similar population density, e.g. Lapland or... well, maybe Lapland is the only one

so what about the other sections?!

I see https://sneller.ai/blog/avx512-itoa/, which reports ~0.75ns/number for <=7 bytes (compared to ~1ns/n for Champagne-Lemire, I would assume on 3 year newer hardware), but ~2.6ns/number for >=8 bytes (vs ~1.3ns/n for Champagne-Lemire). Perhaps it has improved in the 3 years since the blog post was written? Their main GitHub repository is no longer public, so I don't see a good way to test it myself.

Here are some "Regular Performance" shared resource stats

Try checking bzexcluderules_editable.xml. A few years ago, Backblaze would back up .git folders for Mac but not Windows. Not sure if this is still the case.

In addition to the other points brought up, it looks like pricing strongly favors Bunny once you're outside of Cloudflare's free tier.

Per billion rows read: Bunny $0.30, Cloudflare $1.00 (first 25B/month free)

Per million rows written: Bunny $0.30, Cloudflare $1.00 (first 50M/month free)

Per GB stored: Bunny $0.10/region, Cloudflare $0.75 (5GB free)

Bunny also has a lot better region selection, 41 available vs. Cloudflare's 6 (see https://developers.cloudflare.com/d1/configuration/data-loca...). Even though Bunny charges storage per region used where Cloudflare doesn't, Bunny still comes out cheaper with 7 regions selected. Bunny lets you choose how many and which regions to replicate across; Cloudflare's region replication is an on/off toggle that is in beta and requires you to use "the new Sessions API" (I don't know what this entails).

The main reason I haven't tried out D1 is that it locks you into using Workers to access the database. Bunny says they have an HTTP API.

I plan to stick with VPSes for compute and storage, but I do like seeing someone (other than Amazon) challenge Cloudflare on their huge array of fun toys for devs to play with.
