A solution to this is apptainer: you configure it to not see any of the host files by default, and mount the repo you want to work on at runtime.

Well it won't be 'non-mainstream' for one

So is the SIMD the magic piece here, or is it the interpolation search? If the data is evenly distributed, that is pretty optimal for the interpolation search..

This would be where you post-process the LLM response with a second LLM to remove the ad..

If sharing all of your code with the closed providers is OK then it works. If that is a blocker, open weights becomes much more compelling...

There is probably some low hanging fruit to be harvested in terms of memory optimizations, and it could be a selling point for the next while as the memory shortage persists

Well, the program would still halt upon memory flaw, so there would still be a need to fix it

I suppose /some/ performance loss is inevitable. But this could be quite a game changer. As more folks play with it, performing benchmarks, etc -- it should reveal which C idioms incur the most/least performance hits under Fil-C. So with some targetted patching of C code, we may end up with a rather modest price for the memory safety

It seems they are using zstd now for .conda packages, eg, bzip is obsoleted, so that should be faster.

It would be nice indeed if there was a good solution to multi-gigabyte conda directories. Conda has been reproducible in my experience with pinned dependencies in the environment YAML... slow to build, sure, but reproducible.

conda is also (in)famous for being slow at this, although the new mamba solver is much faster. What does uv do in order to resolve dependencies much faster?
