Permissions is another thing. Git permissions are done one a per repo basis.

Git LFS for example does not support file chunking. So a single byte change on a large (100s of gigs) file means downloading the whole file again. Lore does chunking of binary files which means faster downloads and better de-dupping on the backend.

It was a static fire, not a launch. Also means that payload was not lost as out wasn’t yet integrated

New comment by regnerba in "How Claude Code works in large codebases"

Disagree, but also what do you classify as local storage? Does the repo “size” include all projects or just one? What about multiple branches? How much capacity is local storage?

A stock Unreal Engine project is several hundred gigs, consists of multiple solutions, multiple languages, and I would classify as large personally.

Without some kind of indexing it’s very awkward to work with and very slow. To work with LLMs and Unreal projects we create a local index, that index file alone is 46GB.

Without distributed compilers and caches it can take multiple hours to compile the main solution per platform (usually PC, Linux, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and sometimes mobile).

So the codebase easily fits on local storage so long as you don’t count assets (those are several TB) and extra so for source assets (10s of TB), and that’s per stream per large project.

Anyways, point is I disagree and think Unreal Engine is an example of large codebase that fits locally.

I won’t buy another Meta device. Bought the Quest 3 and now they keep installing games and apps on the device that I cannot remove to promote things. I don’t want any of that. Will most likely be replacing it with the Valve Deckard/Frame device as soon as possible.

We run a full Grafana stack (Loki, tempo, Prometheus, alloy agent, Grafana) and back out with self hosted S3 (we are all onprem physical hardware).

While I do like the stack we have, it is a lot of components to run and configure. Don’t think we have ever had any issues once it was up and running.

Does anyone have any thoughts about how this compares? We don’t have a huge amount of days, 1 month of metrics is about 200GB and logs isn’t a whole lot more, less than a TB I think for 2 weeks.

Do you have plans for mobile app? It looks really useful but the two places I would use it would both require I mobile app before I could switch to it.

Serious question: if it’s so important to you why use an iPhone? Not trying to be sarcastic or negative, really just curious.

It’s also important to note that the landing caused uneven crushing of the landing legs. The result being that the booster has a lean to it and they were unable to fully secure it with the octograbber. The leaning of the booster plus wind and rough seas was required to cause the failure. If the booster was level and fully secured it should have been fine.

The newer boosters have self levelling legs which remove the lean caused by uneven crushing of the landing leg cores.

Apparently it was created internally for MrBeast and they then decided to release it for public use as well.

I would as well! It’s honestly a bit beyond me, the Unreal build tools run deep, so I imagine it would take some effort.

Hahaha tell that to my Unreal Engine build times.

A brand new AMD Epyc, 64 core machine, will take over an hour to compile. Good times.

So why not watch the content you do want to support? That does directly help inform the content creator which content to create.

Sounds like they will be using SpaceX designed EVA suites, not NASA ones (which wouldn't fit through the hatch I don't think).

According to this tweet from the author, that isn't the reason Apple gave for removing it: https://twitter.com/keleftheriou/status/1437845736951992321

They simply said keyboards on the watch are not allowed.
