I’d be interested in hearing how that goes down the line. It’s not something that I’m dealing with directly right now, but I haven’t seen where LLMs have been able to make up for not having a framework of understanding how things fit together. Especially in on the infra side!

The problem with that is once you move outside of that context, or want to push the boundaries of it, if you the programmer can’t or won’t understand the layers then it makes it difficult to actually innovate

One thing I’m grappling with i how you train people now to instill that metis as you describe it.
A bunch learning the craft of software engineering is building up the layers of abstraction in your head and knowing how to move up and down those layers. LLMs have that context to some extent

Agreed. There are some really interesting ideas and ramifications of how the magic system works. Made the mistake of listening to the audio book which was A Lot, since there wasn’t a good way to skip past all of parts that don’t work

The whole thing or just Tate’s performance?

Wow, you’re not kidding. It’s actually a pretty reasonable set of arguments

Starfish is so good you have two copies 😂
In all seriousness, I've been pointing people at it more and more lately. I can definitely see some of the other books here in YWDitE

The benefits of being a much more mature open source foundation! Agreed that accepting a project with trademark issues was a huge mistake in hindsight, particularly with not following up on owning it.
My experience working with Syandia and nats felt like they were already operating under the BSL

Out of curiosity why do you think the ASF would be better in this case?

V8 server side is actually petty fast these days from my understanding. Running wasm-opt on your compiled module should get a bit more performance out of it but I’d have to look at your code more to see if there’s anything poorly optimized for wasm.

It would be catastrophic for US soft power. Turns out that educating everyone’s kids gives you a lot of cachet

It really was! Amazingly enough it still runs, so Zoom must inadvertently be staffing a small team keeping it all going.
A dedicated app for viewing social verifications on a handle might be better than a labeler since you wouldn’t have to opt in — just have a link on your profile

Are you thinking something along the lines of Keybase, only using oauth for verification? I could see that being really interesting, especially if you use that to feed a labeler
