> The contest was initially inspired by Daniel Horn’s Obfuscated V contest in the fall of 2004 (note: the original page is long gone, and this link goes to a snapshot from archive.org). The object of that contest was to write a simple program to count votes, that somehow miscounts the votes on election day. I was greatly impressed to see how even a short program to simply count characters in a text file can be made to fail, and fail only on one specific day, so that the bug isn't noticed in testing.

I remember when I got into programming, when the thing to use was basic on a TRS-80, a friend was showing me how MUMPS was as much better language than basic.

Good times

I eat a lot of bread and I make a lot of bread because of that.

Precision measure and mixing and timing helped me a lot in the beginning.

Though I still do that, I find that now I can rely on feel (experience if I'm honest) to know when the dough is just right.

Like with everything, there's probably a middle ground there but I think I just like having fun pretending I'm on a chem lab :)

I tried for a bit, with llama.cpp + Qwen + Mac Pro but the results were very poor (both quality and speed).

I considered investing in better hardware but doing the math, it is cheaper for me to pay for DeepSeek (yeah, I know not everyone can do that).

> I have worked in companies where "X is not complete" would be logged as a bug

I've come to realize it's all about perspective. Something from the engineering stand point may not be a bug because there's nothing to fix. But the user might be having a bad experience because of that so it must be a bug.

In the end, the user's perspective might be the less-wrong one.

using an embedder instead of a decoder is quite clever. Not sure who came up with that first but it's a cool idea.

I know all is relative but when I think of > 8× AMD MI300X GPUs and 2,100 on 8× NVIDIA H200

I still find it mind boggling. That's a lot of compute power and still considered "low end" for the purpose it serves.

I've been using V4 flash consistently with Claude. Pretty great fast and darn cheap. I use it about 3h/day and so far haven't crossed $1 USD/week.
