I have a latency sensitive application - anyone know if any tools that let you compare time to first token and total latency for a bunch of models at once given a prompt. Ideally, run close to the DCs that serve the various models so we can take out network latency from the benchmark.

I suspect it's limited by what the request was for. Waymo has to create the high res map before they can offer service.
Right but what does that have to do with the DMV. Waymo should apply for certain weather conditions and then the DMV says yes or no, then they stay the hell out of the way. Let waymo operate whereever they want and expand however they see fit and whenever they feel ready.
Like the DMV is actually checking Waymos map of a new area is good to go or not. Its just administrative burden.
There's an approved map because the approval process requires the manufacturer to specify both areas and conditions they are applying for, and documents supporting that the vehicle is ready to be operated autonomously in those areas and conditions (which doesn't just include technical readiness, but also administrative readiness in the form of things like a law enforcement interaction plan, etc.)
> like i get having a pilot somewhere but once that goes well (and we're way past that point), why isn't it just blanket approval everywhere.
Because “everywhere” isn't a uniform domain (Waymo is kind of way out in one tail of the distribution in terms of both the geographical range and range of conditions they have applied for and been approved to operate in, other AV manufacturers are in much tinier zones, and narrow road/weather conditions.) And because for some AV manufacturers (if there is one that can demonstrate they don't need this, they'd probably have an easier lift getting broader approvals) part of readiness to deploy (or test) in an area is detailed, manufacturer specific mapping/surveying of the roads.
My question is why they even have to apply for specific areas to begin with? Just approve the manufacturer for certain conditions and let them operate wherever they want.
Whoah, Waymo would be able to take one from Mountain View to Napa. (I get why Cupertino is excluded. But. Oof. Come on.)
why?`
why is there an approved map? like i get having a pilot somewhere but once that goes well (and we're way past that point), why isn't it just blanket approval everywhere. Why would one county be allowed waymos but not another.
I get that they might not be approved in the high sierras but just make that a deny list not allow list. Or even just deny the specific conditions you're worried about (snow).

Sorry that you can't control other peoples lives & wants
so good.
The ultimate "out of sight out of mind" solution to a problem?
I'm surprised that Google has drunken the "Datacenters IN SPACE!!!1!!" kool-aid. Honestly I expected more.
It's so easy to poke a hole in these systems that it's comical. Answer just one question: How/why is this better than an enormous solar-powered datacenter in someplace like the middle of the Mojave Desert?
From the post they claim 8 times more solar energy and no need for batteries because they are continuously in the sun. Presumably at some scale and some cost/kg to orbit this starts to pencil out?
Sandbox is built on top of their Durable Objects; the underlying storage is $0.20/ GB-month.
You’re saying the file system in the container is persisted to the durable object storage? That doesn’t sound right.
If anyone is curious, more details on our SDK can be found here actually https://github.com/cloudflare/sandbox-sdk
Mind answering the question here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45611301 ?
To me, the docs answer it pretty clearly. The defined directories persist until you destroy().
The part that's unclear to me is how billing works for a sandbox's disk that's asleep, because container disks are ephemeral and don't survive sleep[2] but the sandbox pricing points you to containers which says "Charges stop after the container instance goes to sleep".

Yeah thats basically the issue. If container disks are ephemeral, how are they persisting it? And however they are doing it, whats the billing for it?
