Very thoughtful and accurate read: take it from my first hand experience trying to roll my own CMS like systems with markdown, "Git is not a content collaboration tool" hits home so hard. You would not imagine the things I've seen break across content because someone (or more

For me, this video embodies why SO many people bounce off of Linux and abandon desktop Linux: A simple question like "What's the d in systemd stand for?" introduces all sorts of confusion from one of, if not the most, influential people in Linux. If you have any understanding

If your software license has a “non-compete” clause, then, I’m sorry to break it to you, it’s not free and open source software. That is proprietary software that I happen to be able to look at the code.

Orchestrating TPUs on Kubernetes with GKE is leagues beyond the nvidia nightmare. This is something alot of people miss: SREs on GKE have a much easier time managing huge TPU based workloads since the devices and drivers are automatically loaded from TPU nodepools. All you have

What does this mean for classically verifiable computer programs? In theory, every computer program can have a "proof" for its correctness (just like you can prove that "1 = 2" by dividing by zero and, thus, invalidating division by zero). In theory, with a model that has some

This is huge. DeepSeek is back with a new proofs based math model that outperforms other LLMs: > We then train a proof generator using the verifier as the reward model, and incentivize the generator to identify and resolve as many issues as possible in their own proofs before

i started calling this "dopamine driven development" (or ddd) - it's how llm inference providers scrap more and more "understanding" away from you, keeping you dependent. https://t.co/duYanO1X2h

hot take: MCP is so lite weight that huge, centralized sdks is probably an anti-pattern. @Zuplo needed a thin, low dependency MCP sdk for our runtime. So I went and built one! Built on Zod 4, no express JS dependency, uses the "fetch()" API https://t.co/0NL5EXbdRV
