I feel like Nike’s biggest fumble was not advertising the Invincibles more. It seemed they had some evidence the PEBAX foam could reduce injury in base mileage, which is the number one thing many/most runners spend the most time on. So why not make sure everybody knows this? It seems weird. If you have a lot of athletes who need conditioning and don’t want to get injured, why not advertise the crap out of the injury prevention shoes?

I think the API runs on Azure

Hosted on Azure is different from provided by Azure. The former just uses Azure as an infra provider. The latter is a managed offering that is operated and billed by Microsoft using tech licensed from OpenAI.

I personally think this acquisition is genius anybody who could afford it would be wise to own HuggingFace because they are incredible

I think it’s a bunch of hidden UTF-8 character substitutions so the text looks the same but the underlying bytes are different

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. I wonder however how can this be done without giving a lot of problems when copypasting or sending the input to other LLMs (not even thinking about code here).

I was wrong here, it’s more about the RNG they use for the word choices [1]. Although I wouldn’t be surprised to see UTF-8 substitutions also.

It’s amazing how much Python punishes you for modularizing your code

I’m heavy into rust and never really use golang, but one big benefit of go over rust is compile times are significantly quicker, which could be more fun if you’re running CI checks 50 billion times

>which could be more fun if you’re running CI checks 50 billion times

Even running them 5 times it's WAY more fun

Yeah it’s a coding beast if you get it dialed in right

gotta admit i groaned a bit at this because it would make rust more complicated, but on my 2nd read i realized:

- some things (compile time bounds checking tensor shapes) are hard / impossible to implement now; "pattern types" could be great for that

- however "no panic" is already handled by clippy, might not be much uplift for doing that at a type level.

my 2c: it's great to be excited and brainstorm, some of these ideas might be gold. conveying the benefit is key. it would be good to focus on stuff for which rust doesn't already have a workable solution. i like the pattern types, the rest would take convincing

Anthropic is not trustworthy for this because they force every Claude Code user to agree to a noncompete while also opting them in to model training.

That means, by default, every Claude Code user is actively getting royally screwed

surprisingly accurate! Is Gary the AI equivalent of the “nothing ever happens” guy?
