Heroku is turning the 12 factor manifesto into a community project and modernizing it. I posted my thoughts in a blog[1], and I'd love to hear what other people think!

This is something I’ve been arguing for for a while[1]. I called it a “Framework Knowledge Base”. I think it needs to go a bit further and include specific code examples, especially for newer bits that are not in the training set. Ultimately RAG or even fine tuning might be better than a system prompt. [1]: https://devops.com/the-rise-of-coding-assistants-superchargi...

thanks for sharing!

I've followed Caleb on YouTube for a while, due to his MtG content. He is PhD in Optical Sciences that makes some very interesting AI art. He has created a new card game with hand curated AI art and some interesting rules aimed at solving a bunch of the problems around existing collectible card games. He wrote an essay[1] about his design goals which is fascinating. [1] https://calebgannon.com/2023/07/08/the-making-of-algomancy/

Python is extremely slow for some tasks. I was surprised to discover how slow when I ran some benchmarks, despite having used python for many years at the time. It has been improving lately, but here is a blog post I made on the topic quite a few years ago that has some interesting comparisons: https://gist.github.com/vishvananda/7a2f1942d0e9ffff4093

Just reran the benchmarks from 10 years ago, python is only 37X slower than C on the benchmark now, and the go version is running faster than the C version. Python still has big productivity wins of course...

This is definitely an intriguing line of thinking. I too am constantly appalled by the complexity we introduce into the things we build, but I suspect a lot of it has to do with human issues that can't be solved by better technology. That said, I'm very curious to see what tractor ends up looking like.

I'm surprised that neither the documentary nor the review gets into the legacy of OpenStack. I may be biased, but it seems to me that a huge amount of the success of kubernetes is directly attributable to OpenStack.

First, OpenStack paved the way for a bunch of companies to invest real money in working together to compete with AWS. Second, there was massive turnover in ~2013 in open source contributors from OpenStack to Kubernetes. I wouldn't be surprised if a good 50% of the kubernetes community was inherited directly from OpenStack.

I suspect the documentary might have not wanted to thrash talk OpenStack.

Let's be honest, a non trivial push for k8s was just how badly Open Stack sucked

In this particular case, some of the runs from iFit instructors are actually quite good, and it cool that it adjusts the speed and incline to match the instruction. Probably not worth the extra $$$$ but it is pretty cool. But now I also want to be able to watch regular videos. I usually walk outdoors for an hour a day to get my 10,000 steps in, and the Chicago winter makes that tough, so I'm thinking an hour of walking on the treadmill while i catch up on my favorite shows might be a good substitute.

Thank you for this. I was hoping someone had figured it out but I hadn't found this yet.

I hadn't been following the "Right to Repair" movement too closely until I discovered that NordicTrack recently locked their users out of Privileged Mode[0], which makes it virtually impossible to install 3rd party software like Netflix on my treadmill. I just want to watch a video while I exercise!
