taste matters
are you going to slop?
built a tiny app that inspects github commit vibes and gives you a very scientific slop score

huge for open source llm
new day, new rsc vulnerabilities

magical courses made just for you.
recent ai model progress feels mostly like bullshit
the best article in this year so far. the instruction tune process makes llms sound smart, but they're not really that clever. it's like what's happening in research - papers filled with complex notations and abstract concepts just to seem impressive. instead of just solving problem straightforward, like in the article point out that when using llms to find the vulnerabilities, if the code looks good, just tell it's fine. but llms always try to highlight any potential issues, when everything's just works.
the "think" tool
a small tool can improve overall agentic capabilities.
braintrust
the end-to-end platform for building world-class ai apps.
magic labs
magic is working on long context and inference-time compute, they are focusing on coding purposes and building models from the ground up.
inference characteristics of llama-2
prompt processing is cheap, generating tokens is slow and expensive.
building effective agents
finding the simplest solution possible, only increasing complexity if needed.
gitlab.com database incident
an engineer at gitlab accidentally deleted their production database, and they couldn't recover it because their backup methods failed. they shared the root cause, how they handled the situation, and the lessons learned in a very transparent way.
pds sqlite refactor
the refactoring pull request of the bluesky app, specifically how they plan to store data. they use a single sqlite database per user that stores their repository and private account state.
why we over-engineer software (and how to break the habit)
"...many companies will never grow large enough or achieve enough scale for this complexity to be beneficial". right tools for the right job, isn't it?
what you find when you stop looking
is the planning we do all the time worth it, or is it just an illusion of control?
the art gallery
beautiful artworks! i'm currently using them as my wallpaper on both my mac and iphone.
