<p>> A meeting between all the stakeholders to agree on requirements easily runs $1,000/hour. Taking your $4 functional PoC into that meeting is going to save so much time..<p>It is though! Because previously your have the meeting last 4x as long to end up with a list of notes that you already knew.<p>Now you can generate the PoC, showcase it during the meeting and leave with actionable changes in project direction.</p>

<p>The interface being arbitrary text makes the moat even looser. The cost of experimentation with alternatives is getting lower and lower.<p>It’s going to be hard for companies to justify paying $1000s per month to frontier providers when they see what’s doable with open versions.</p>

<p>What does this mean (from your link):<p>> Nested data stays inline. A string, an array of strings, a record with variable-size fields and an array of those records are each one contiguous block with no pointer in it. A record that is 160 bytes and an allocation in C++ is 29 bytes and none in Goose.<p>I’m having trouble parsing that last sentence.</p>

<p>> … an index designed to track the 500 largest companies is required to exclude some of those just because they happen to be run by a guy you dislike?<p>Emotions about the executives and founders aside, it may be worthwhile to exclude securities with multiple concentrated voting classes (like Meta) or those with one owner with more than X% of the float (like SpaceX).</p>

<p>> The only time it flirts with complexity is multi-stage Dockerfiles, but 90%+ of Dockerfiles are a single stage.<p>And multi stage builds are just a directed graph short hand for having separate intermediate dockerfiles. There’s nothing special about them either.<p>If I had to pick one thing that is tricky for someone new to docker to understand, it’s how the filesystem state is cached using the previous state, the env, and the raw command text.</p>

<p>It can be even more lines as long as the hunks are continuous. Once you lose the context of change and have to “zoom out” to see where it fits in, the review time grows significantly.</p>

<p>You might be interested in this section:<p>> Don't be curmudgeonly. Thoughtful criticism is fine, but please don't be rigidly or generically negative.<p>Seriously. How often do we get a story that intersects power generation and volcanos?<p>I read, or at least lightly skim through, the article I post about. But always post whatever comes to mind, regardless of how it will come across.</p>

<p>> Nvidia announced Wednesday a new product that will put seven of its Vera Rubin AI racks into a shipping container, the company’s latest effort to move up the stack and offer complete systems for artificial intelligence computing.<p>> Nvidia did not announce a price for the system, but analysts say a single Vera Rubin rack can cost more than $7 million.<p>So around $50 million in one shipping container. I bet they put more than an air tag to track those on the move.</p>

<p>There’s plenty of delicious vegetarian dishes. I’m not a fan of the ones that try to be meat dishes replaced with vegetables or anything processed to pretend to be meat.<p>Vegetables are delicious on their own. There’s thousands of years of cultures around the world making vegetables taste wonderful.</p>

<p>> I don't view words as violent action, people can say whatever they want.<p>Where does that put someone calling out a public hit?

<p>> According to the organizers, Meta failed to respond to their team for approximately 90 minutes while the account was offline during the peak of their national day of action and livestream.<p>Is it really that unusual to contact a large tech company and not get a response for (egad!) 90 minutes?</p>
