ah, i think i misunderstood your original post. if you mean the wayback-machine/arkive, then I suspect it'd be hard to justify? You are essentially paying a third-party source to validate that diffs didn't go through on…
I mean we already paid for the article from the source itself. I guess I'd expect a better "diff" source from them, but if they dont even update the article itself, i guess i wouldn't expect a paid service to have those…
We used to always "scrape" the wayback machine for any sort of news article we actually paid to consume. I was absolutely shocked by major news sites making very important edits to an article without any sort of…
I think it's VERY project specific. If you are looking for anything technical at all, then keyword search almost always does better (in my experience). I'd actually recommend starting with keyword search, and then…
I'm hoping this means we get an rds + s3 implementation of ducklake from AWS: https://ducklake.select/
I have a Google account that I had tied to a domain I originally purchased from google (when they had the .dev offerings), and now that it's been purchased by square space my ability to use AI through that account is in…
I appreciate the comparison to Timescale, DuckDB, and ClickHouse. It's interesting to see the differences between a more specialized db, like Quest, and DuckDB/ClickHouse.
Ah yes, I specifically mean you can keep earning points infinitely. After the board is full, it resets the game, and you get points for each piece on the board. I usually stop the simulation after it clears the board 10…
I'm fairly sure the code snippets aren't equal in the last python example: ```python names = sorted({name.lower() for name in users if name}) ``` vs. ```gossamer let names = users |> iter::filter(|n: String| n.len() >…
I've never seen the level of anti-scientific, straight misinformation as I have with data centers. I genuinely think it's to the point where the antivaxxers have a stronger scientific backing for their stance. It did…
The way the game is seeded, it's 100% deterministic. So if you can scan enough potential moves / second, it's very easy to infinitely play the game at a fast rate. Shockingly, Claude was able to find the exact random…
I started by pulling the game source locally and doing some initial testing with a few solvers. I ended up having Claude make a 1-for-1 perfect sim of the original game using rust with some optimizations. The original…
I had a lot of fun playing the game. I also made a local solver to see how far you can theoretically get, and it's definitely infinite if you play perfectly. Working on the local sim / solver was almost as fun as…
Fun article and worth the read, but sadly none of the LaTeX was rendered for me (assuming it was supposed to).
I would have loved to buy my children some small C&H figurines or, especially, a stuffed tiger, but I do respect Waterson's decision
How many existing data centers do you think you rely on each day? Almonds do not realistically improve my life in nearly the way the internet does, but also who am I to say whether you should be allowed to farm almonds…
Like producing more tax revenue for a county than the rest of the county combined? That payoff allows for insane levels of infrastructure improvement at literally no cost to locals.
In the case of the Stratos / Box Elder County mega-datacenter, they are planning to use gas turbines to run off of the nearby Ruby Pipeline. It's a pretty tidy solution, if you ask me.
The mega-scale ones almost all have power as part of the ramp-up process. They are also a massive tax benefit. Looking at the controversial Stratos data center in Box Elder County: Box Elder County baseline (before…
Except datacenters are actually very low environmental impact. As long as they provide their own power, they have MUCH lower impact than most farms would.
It's a neat product, but I am also a bit confused by the choice to use C as the primary language. I would think you'd want something more ergonomic since this is entirely I/O bound. I'm 100% on board with using C for…
I don't understand why people on this website hate Grok for being tied to Elon Musk, but also have no problem with models that are directly sponsored by the CCP.
Grok and Gemini are the ones I tend to use for finding news related to breaking events. Both were really nice during the Iran incident when I wanted to find out things as they were being reported.
If your data follows a relatively uniform distribution, you can try out interpolation search: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpolation_search
The US doesn't have a desire to annex Canada; that's very silly. And the reason Russia doesn't have the capability is because of Canada's alliance with the US.
