I hope someone builds an open API around this metadata. I'd love to have alternatives to the big player APIs.


I'd say Ghostty is a pretty big success story as well.


Let's not forget about TigerBeetle either. They weren't bought (as far as I'm aware), but they seem to have some pretty good backing from customers.


Are the benefits of Zig really that amazing compared to Rust that it's worth choosing Zig, which is not even at 1.0 and seems to be constantly changing? Also, Zig is not memory safe the same way.

That said, I can easily imagine that the developer experience is superior for Zig. More fun.


At this point I'm not sure I can give a satisfying answer, but zig was just fun to use from the beginning. It was just c, but with a bunch of special features like comptime, the lessened foot-gun-ness of zig was just a benefit since most of the conventions were just things I was doing in my head but not putting into the code (since there wasn't really a good way to do so without compromise). The other thing I liked was I could just immediately read and write it without much looking at the docs. Their standard library was a bit of a hurdle, but the fact that the whole thing existed on my disk and I could just pop it open and read the code really helped (I assume this is the same with Rust, but I have trouble reading rust without going to lookup syntax). So while I can't give good reasons for using it in a commercial setting, for personal projects it was just fun. Rust in comparison hasn't really been fun to try and pick up.

At this point however I don't really like the way zig is going. So I won't really advocate for zig at this point, but I can say when I first started using it, it was fun and I could just write code that worked.


The problem with the Small Web list is that it's English-only! They definitely need a multilingual one as well.


I've been building something vaguely similar, which includes many languages. Be sure to adjust the language filter, although it should auto-detect based on browser language.

I think you can either have the memory on or off but according to the docs the projects have their own separate memory so it wont leak across the projects or from non-project chats:

"Each project has its own separate memory space and dedicated project summary, so the context within each of your projects is focused, relevant, and separate from other projects or non-project chats."

You're absolutely right!


Vite (which is used by a large portion of modern frontend frameworks) by default builds the production bundle for baseline widely available: https://vite.dev/guide/build.html#browser-compatibility


Off-topic but this is one of my pet peeves of the modern web; some of the images on the page are ridiculously gigantic. We've had awesome publishing software for two decades with the very basic feature of optimizing published images but somehow nowadays it's totally acceptable to publish an article with several 10+ Mb images.


Especially egregious given how web standards and software make it pretty easy to make images show the ideal size always


I am here for the pictures


Shut the fuck up, compression is bad


Calm down. Compression lowers data requirements. That's a good thing.


This is wild!

"when assessed by Claude 3.5 Sonnet’s production-grade RM, our unsupervised assistant policy wins 60% of head-to-head comparisons against the policy trained with the human-supervised RM." So now the models can even post-train the new models better than a human can


Everytop model in ARC AGI used a test time finery king approach. They they had one example pair though and would usually do transformations (color, mirroring, etc) of it for the finetuning, and that might have been coded by hand


I used to not care that much about fire risks of cheap electric devices (apart from lithium batteries like here because they seem to be inherently volatile/dangerous) until one day few years back when a faulty wire of a $3 iPhone charger from AliExpress caught fire on my desk.

I probably wouldn't have noticed it until way too late if my cat hadn't happened to sleep next to it on the same table. He had a sudden scare of the fire and jumped quickly off the table. It looked so weird that I went and looked what he was afraid of and saw flames coming of the half-melted charger and the wire. The desk was full of paper and junk, it was seconds away from catching fire in a way that I probably couldn't put down anymore as I live in a flat and don't own a fire estinquisher. (We only have a fire blanket in the kitchen but that wouldn't have helped much.)

I will never save few bucks from charger wires or chargers or power banks like these ever again -- it's just not worth it!

That all said, don't have any experience from Anker devices myself but in my experience you typically get what you pay for when buying cheap.


Anker's not really 'buying cheap' IMO, it sort of started that way but quickly got a good reputation and now it's a household name and a brand that will do a recall.

Buying cheap would be the drop-shipped 'brands' that exist for all of 5 minutes. TNAHEK or FGUYJ or similar unpronounceable all-caps nonsense. (Or 'GoodLife' or 'SuccessDream' or something.)


Why not buy a fire extinguisher? I've been a renter most my life, and I've never lived a place where the landlord supplied fire extinguishers, but they've also never complained about me supplying my own.


That's a good question. This might be some kind of a "fireplace delusion" [1] kind of a thing, I've never really even considered it. I've never seen anyone have a fire extinguisher in a flat here in Finland, that might also be one reason. I guess that wouldn't be the worst purchase to make but I'd still much rather try not to put myself in a situation where I'd need one :)

Anker isn't some cheap no name brand.


Haven't seen that documentaty but unfortunately it seems to be geoblocked in Finland :(


I know some SVT stuff work in Finland maybe you can watch it here: https://kunskapskanalen.se/program/dox-20-dagar-i-mariupol

Edit: mate it is on YLE? https://arenan.yle.fi/1-67287489
