The more work you do, the more work there is to do.

@EastlondonDev @nicolaygerold @IggyOnInvesting True. Whoever else reads this: the only Zeiss stock you can buy is medicinal tech. Zeiss Meditec has nothing to do with the Zeiss Optics used in chip making or cameras.

for thirty years the advice was simple: don't poll, sleep until the interrupt.

then NVMe and 100GbE got fast enough that the interrupt path became a noticeable part of the cost. so now NAPI polls, io_uring can poll, and NVMe queues can poll.

what's interesting is that hardware didn't just make things faster it changed which tradeoff makes sense.

a lot of things we treat as rules are really just ratios that happened to be true at the time.

“If you’re going to use an LLM to write me an email, I’d much rather you just send me the prompt; at least then I’d have an idea of what you actually meant to say.”

This. I hate reading AI output.

[antirez @antirez]

Sorry if I post this again, but: this is the best post about AI slop you are going to read in the next 2 years.

@samuelcolvin @1Password Similar experience but in Safari. Things get even worse with profiles. Just a world of pain.

[Ed Zitron @edzitron]

Uber’s COO has said that it’s getting “harder to justify” its AI costs because there was no way to show a link between AI spend and any meaningful increase in useful features. This is the first time I’ve seen a company say this directly.

@rachelnabors Thx for this practical intro to eval!
Like some of the others, I'd also +1 DSPy. Take a look at their optimizers section.

Ha. What he says applies so much to agentic engineering as well. Vibing vs Building Understanding.

John Mayer telling that he's not a big advice guy and then dropping the best advice for guitar playing.

„1 can now do what a team of 10 did“. „Mini AGI“.
What I see: the pressure cooker is on. Quality will suffer. Employees will suffer.

We are entering a time of great pain, if this nonsense doesn’t stop.

A deep dive into a topic I wanted to explore for a long time: how to render a realistic sky and atmosphere

I explore everything from simulating the interaction of light with air, to handling sunsets, all in real-time, from ground to space
