Thank you for your kind words. Yes, i hate subscriptions. But, also. Renovating is a one-off thing and i can't justify charging a monthly fee for a service that is only needed once.
This is one of the reasons people love using xona: no subscriptions :)
I don't understand. Is this meant to run locally? Because I tried to deploy my agent using GitHub MCP server to K8s. I can't ask my agent to run docker command in a pod.
i was thinking the same. And i am sure it is in the training set, but i couldn't solve 10 hard problems. Also, most of the hard problems, the LLMs weren't able to solve in one shot. How do you explain this?
There are many more correct answers to the easy problems than to the hard ones. Thus the LLM is more likely to hit upon the correct completion for them.
I'm working on Xona AI (https://xona.ai). I want to democratize the generation of 3D visualizations for interior and exterior design. We will launch next week on ProductHunt :)
That's not at all what I said, but you sort of proved my point for me - voters aren't willing or able to take the time to understand the issues or the nuance involved with each one, much less every issue.
Switzerland does not have direct democracy like you propose. They have a referendum system with up to four votes a year. California has the same system. That was in fact the system I was talking about in my first comment, that I spend a day researching for each vote and then everyone just does what I tell them because they trust me. I'm basically a politician for six people.
It has its pros and cons. For example in Switzerland it caused the veto of a much needed infrastructure project. In California it leads to nearly all of the state's budget being allocated by law without any flexibility for emergencies.
And Switzerland still has political parties. They are the ones that write most of the referendums.
It is the same in the US (the right, not obligation, to vote). It is a good thing but there is a fair but of social pressure to vote here. I hear people talk about voting for people be cause they are better that the other guy.
Isn't it depressing, that we live in 2023 and the predominant document format is pdf, which was invented in 1993 and is optimized for printing? I would love to have a new format, which is easily parseable (like JSON) AND printable (like PDF).
at least PDF occasionally contains actual text. My organisation systematically scans everything to TIFF images for archival. So now we are embarking on a major project to OCR the TIFFs to get back the text (!).
My payroll statement is the same, image wrapped in a pdf document.
I’m not sure if they’re being intentionally annoying or if someone thought this was actually helpful for the thousands of independent contractors who track their expenses down to the penny?
I thinks it’s depressing that we’re still thinking of content being containerised as if it still had to be bound in a physical volume instead of being addressable items of information, like a computer naturally stores information.
I love this comment. It strikes at the heart of many things that I have been vocal about for decades at the same time I could take the devil's advocate approach to say: a computer naturally stores information on physical volumes, since these have different address spaces you will probably not get around this conundrum.
However, fundamentally I completely agree with you. Information we seek should not be bound to the medium it is stored on in this day an age. I wish we could get out of the containerized knowledge but it seems to me we are creating ever more virtual containers in which information is stored. I for one only get a glimpse of the vast amounts of information TikTok is making available to it's users when it is posted on one of the few websites I visit.
I guess the reason we still think of information being in books and on paper is because we are human and its hard to get rid of millennia of habits and institutions that have grown around us to accommodate for our limited ability to grasp the universe.
Don’t forget this tweet from a day earlier, which he quotes:
> “So will wasm replace Docker?” No, but imagine a future where Docker runs linux containers, windows containers and wasm containers side by side. Over time wasm might become the most popular container type. Docker will love them all equally, and run it all :)
