Has the required operating information increased exponentially? My sense is that computers lowered operating information density by merging multiple signals into fewer, more complex ones.

It's complicated, but https://jro.io/capacity/ actually walks you though how it works, towards the middle of the page.

``` Unlike traditional RAID5 and RAID6 implementations, ZFS supports partial-stripe writes. This has a number of important advantages but also presents some implications for space calculation that we'll need to consider. Supporting partial stripe writes means that in our 7wZ2 vdev example, we can support a write of 12 total sectors even though 12 is not an even multiple of our stripe width (7). 12 is evenly divisible by +1 (3 in this case), so we don't even need any padding. We would have a single full stripe of 7 sectors (2 parity sectors plus 5 data sectors) followed by a partial stripe with 2 parity sectors and 3 data sectors. This will be important because even though we can support partial stripe writes, every stripe (including those partial stripes) need a full set of p parity sectors. ```

What we're seeing is that AI is enabling us to reduce product headcount, but increase the scope of ownership for teams. We used to require each product keep at least 3 people on it to ensure that knowledge doesn't get lost with a departure, but now we're comfortable allowing an individual engineer drive it and allow AI to accelerate onboarding for a replacement when needed. This means that the teams can now handle 3x the products and our wish lists are getting shorter over time.

As an older engineer, I love the Zachtronic games because they're pure development and I don't have to drive consensus or herd cats.

I'm against the government having stake in any private company. It incentivizes the wrong behaviors. Regulations need to be written by a neutral party. Policy decisions need to be fair and balanced between the players in the market, not favoring one that they "own".

Honestly, I don't know that going after them is going to work out. It turns into a media circus and the propaganda media excels as using that circus to sap support. I really think that they need to run on fixing living. Most people don't feel like they're a part of the economy. It's a "that's something rich people worry about". Simpler message will resonate deeper. We want to bring the American dream back to reality.

Focusing on real results will eventually sap away the power of the distractions.

I'm a little unclear on this. You say it's a replacement for Temporal, but the GitHub repo says it's a replacement for the temporal python client SDK?

Then in the description you say "This lets you run durable workflows, activities, signals, updates, retries, and recovery without needing any infrastructure except Postgres." but your diagram shows worker nodes outside of the Postgres server, so you do need infrastructure beyond the Postgres instance?

Can you give any examples of societies that went to the brink and reversed course? I can't think of any, but I'd be fascinated to learn more about examples who have.

Bullshit. Shotguns are not designed to have a wide pattern close up. They're designed to have a wide pattern out at 40 yards or so.

Sawed off shotguns have a wider pattern closer, but it's wildly random and impossible to aim with any real effectiveness.

I have both. I shoot trap. My gun on my bedside is a p226 with a flashlight that has a strobe option.

Neither of these two movies are my jam, but I'm glad they are finding success. It's giving me hope that we're going to get a revitalized movie industry focusing on new IP and talent.

> Strictly speaking, they don't even need us as customers. They can just have the robots build them yachts and mansions directly. And act as security guards.

That sounds like we'll devolve into wars over resources so houses can build more war-bots and get more resources....

I'm almost certain this is the case. There's other videos where she talks about calling an executive meeting to hand in her two weeks and another one complaining that the corporate offices don't have ac or windows. I think it's all engagement bait.

Did any other manufacturers build their own version? It seems like the right long term idea but the lack of other players seems to indicate there's some underlying issue that isn't solved yet.

I had the same thing happen. I use Claude at work, and I wanted to use it at home. I created a new account and purchased the year long subscription, got confirmed and then banned. I emailed a few times and ended up doing a charge back and presume I'm blacklisted from them forever now.

No VPN, zero tokens used, just new account, purchase year plan and immediate ban.

I've been meaning to investigate Nitro Enclaves[1] for exactly this but haven't made the time yet. Have you looked into them and found them lacking?

It's patching the binary in memory, so the binary patch would be architecture dependent. The existing one is only x86_64, but with an updated payload, it would work on arm.

The point of backtesting is to allow you to do what you want to do with a veneer of being data driven.
