Missing "OpenAI sidesteps" from the beginning of the title article title
sorenbs · a month ago
Yeah. Completely changes the meaning of the article. I thought Nvidia was now competing with Cerebras. That's not the case...

I have a question for those who closely follows Cerebras: do they have a future beyond being inference platform based on (an unusual) in-house silicon?
sorenbs · a month ago
If chip manufacturing advances allow them to eventually run leading edge models at speeds much faster than competition, that seems a really bright future all on its own. Their current chip is reportedly 5nm already, and much too small for the real 5.3-codex: https://www.cerebras.ai/press-release/cerebras-announces-thi...

Good use-case for what?

sorenbs · a month ago
We operate a postgres service on Firecracker. You can create as many databases as you want, and we memory-snapshot them after 5 seconds of inactivity, and spin them up again in 50ms when a query arrives.

I use beads quite a bit, but not as steve intended. And definitely the opposite of "Gas Town," where I use the note-taking capability and integration with Git (that is, as something of a glorified Makefile and database) to debug contexts, to close the loop and increase accuracy over time. Nevertheless, it has been useful for large batch runs over my code base: the record has been processing for thirty hours straight while getting something useful, and enough trace data to make further improvements.

Steve has gone "a bit" loopy, in a (so far) self aware manner, but he has some kind of insight into the software engineering process, I think. Yet, I predict beads will break under the weight of no-supervision eventually if he keeps churning it, but some others will pick up where he left off, with more modest goals. He did, to his credit, kill off several generations of project before this one in a similar category.

Already happening :-) https://github.com/Dicklesworthstone/beads_rust

I've had a lot of fun playing this the past weeks. And very happy to learn the game uses Prisma on the backend :-)

I am considering them, but reviews on Trustpilot are less than favorable. I'm not sure whether or not to trust the site.

sorenbs · a year ago
I am somehow uniquely well positioned to answer this question. I worked at Trustpilot for 7 years, and am now a relatively large Vultr customer.

Vultr is great!
