The key is that manual coding for a normal task takes a one/two weeks, where-as if you configure all your prompts/agents correctly you could do it in a couple of hours. As you highlighted, it brings many new issues (code quality, lack of tests, tech debt) and you need to carefully create prompts and review the code to tackle those. But in the end, you can save significant time.
Would you have any standard prompts you could share which ask it to make a draft with you'd want (eg unit tests etc)?

I mean if it's configured to drown me out when I'm having digestive troubles, I think they might need to adjust the bit in the Q&A about it not disturbing my sleeping partner
It seems to have a clock so it doesn't turn on at night?
Isn't PGAdmin good enough? Not hating, but I'm not a database guy either so just curious why create a VSCode extension for GUI stuff.
Can you setup entra authentication with PgAdmin? I'm more of a MS Sql person so I don't know, but if not the security improvement from this would be a huge improvement
Since no one specifically answered your question yet, yes, you should be able to get usable performance. A Q4_K_M GGUF of DeepSeek-R1 is 404GB. This is a 671B MoE that "only" has 37B activations per pass. You'd probably expect in the ballpark of 20-30 tok/s (depends on how much actually MBW can be utilized) for text generation.
From my napkin math, the M3 Ultra TFLOPs is still relatively low (around 43 FP16 TFLOPs?), but it should be more than enough to handle bs=1 token generation (should be way <10 FLOPs/byte for inference). Now as far is its prefill/prompt processing speed... well, that's another matter.
I would be curious about context window size that would be expected when generating ballpark 20 to 20 tokens per second using Deepseek-R1 Q4 on this hardware?
drited commented on Try thinking and learning without working memory (2008) sharpbrains.com/blog/2008... · Posted by u/rzk
I am a bit confused by this approach.
From what I've read, the training isn't necessarily transferable. You just get better at these sorts of brain games, which doesn't necessarily mean your working memory is increasing.
Even while reading gwern's blog that seemed pretty positive of this kind of training, there was limited evidence that you shouldn't learn just a new instrument or language or new sort of math discipline.
Why do people keep thinking that "training" can improve working memory?
The evidence is mixed, but some studies (e.g. Jaeggi) did find transfer effects from n back training to fluid intelligence.
It only takes 40 mins a day for 8 weeks to test it out. Much less time than the commitment to learn a new language.
Having tried it, I wouldn't be surprised if the mixed results were due to improper adherence and misunderstanding of how n back works by some study participants. In other words, I think it's possible that results would be less mixed for someone who is already starting from a point of solid intelligence and who is driven enough to put in the hard,focused work to get to higher n back levels.

I want to double check we’re talking about the same thing here. I’m referring to running everything inside a single VM that you would have total access to. It could have telemetry, you’d know versions etc. I wonder if there’s some confusion around what I’m suggesting given your points above.
I’m sure there are a bunch of things that make it the right choice for Stripe. Obviously if you just have too many things to run at a time and a dev laptop can’t handle it then it’s a dealbreaker. What’s the size of the cloud instances you have to run on?
I see in another comment thread you mentioned downloading the VM iso, presumably from a central source. Your comment in this thread didn't mention that so perhaps this answer (incorrectly) assumes the VM you are talking about was locally maintained/created?

Oh neat, yeah we could some speech to text thing or maybe even some like visual signal thing to call fouls.
Very cool of you to take on board feedback.
In relation to user experience on first try...I just wanted to test it out for 30 second to see if it's worth keeping. I haven't tested now, will have to wait until I get an hour free later because there are a few roadblocks. - You require email and password registration and to click a verification link. Not too bad - When first launched the app asks you to allow mic permissions by clicking settings. However in Hooper settings on Android there is no mic permissions option. Bad. - You require 5gb free to use the product at all. Understandable given storage is required for video but how about reducing that so users can do like a 30-second test for first use? That way they don't have to spend an hour going through their phone's media to see what they want to keep and what they can delete.
You'd be amazed at how many people (like me lol) have almost full storage on their device most of the time.
Edit: oh....it's not a setting for mic permissions, it's a general permissions setting and if you touch that you can add additional permissions. Based on the text of the popup I hadn't guessed that was the right place to look and I hadn't realised it was possible to add permissions by touching that area of the settings menu.

Cool but offence is only half the story! Any plans to add defensive stats or stuff like turnovers / steals etc?
Also any plans to make it work from camera footage e.g. A 360 camera that can capture the whole court at once instead of syncing?

We are a major CS client, with 50k windows-based endpoints or so. All down.
There exists a workaround but CS does not make it clear whether this means running without protection or not. (The workaround does get the windows boxes unstuck from the boot loop, but they do appear offline in the CS host management console - which of course may have many reasons).
Wow that's terrible. I'm curious as to whether your contract with them allows for meaningful compensation in an event like this or is it just limited to the price of the software?
