<p>I don't believe this list was curated as the title suggests. It's just a semi-random list of popular-ish GPUs with LLM-generated descriptions.<p>The site looks nice, which fools us into thinking thought and effort was put into this.</p>

<p>Yesterday, I resumed a former claude code session in order to copy code it had generated earlier in that session. Unfortunately, when resuming, it only prints the last N hundred lines of the session to the terminal, so what I was looking for was cut off.<p>I think that for this sort of _interactive_ application, there's no avoiding the need to manage scroll/history.</p>

<p>That's what I thought as well at first, but I've come to think that is just the cover story. While some of his base likely did buy in, I expect that _most_ of the inflows were from individuals or groups looking to influence the administration (aka bribes).</p>

<p>We should not buy into the baseless "autonomous" claim.<p>Sure, it may be _possible_ the account is acting "autonomously" -- as directed by some clever human. And having a discussion about the possibility is interesting. But the obvious alternative explanation is that a human was involved in every step of what this account did, with many plausible motives.</p>

<p>I appreciate the defense of doctors wages for great work; I would agree that many doctors absolutely deserve it and more.<p>But this "semi-monopolistic trade union" not only inflates their wages (which maybe that's a good thing), but it also harms the lives of the population they purport to serve. Many (most imo) people in the US simply cannot afford the monopoly's prices, and the monopoly has little incentive to innovate. This cartel of doctors actively prevents lower-cost, more efficient alternatives from coming to market.</p>

<p>I'd say it's fair to call this a footgun, though not a bug. The context is really only intended to apply to the goroutines. And Wait has to cancel the context to prevent a resource leak.<p>I suggest in general using function scoping to drive the lifetime of contexts, etc. This works also for defers and tracing spans in addition to the canonically shadowed `ctx` variable.<p>There is an old issue in the tracker proposing changes to alleviate this: <a href="https://github.com/golang/go/issues/34510" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/golang/go/issues/34510</a>. The original author (bcmills) of the errgroup package shared insight into the design choices/tradeoffs he made.</p>
