Meta (seemingly) bought the local race track in Beaver PA for a large data center. We were sad to see a world class racing facility go away as it finally started to hit its stride. But the offer was too hard for ownership to pass up
Racetrack memory is an emerging alternative that might obviate the current DRAM shortage especially for datacenter use, so in a way this makes a whole lot of sense.
oh I agree but the last three years has felt like an endless chorus of people telling me SWE was going to be obsolete very soon so I had to push back against the idea that "nobody" thinks that.
I wouldn't have to listen to people talk about it all the time if nobody thought it was true
(not GP) To be fair, just because someone says something doesn't mean they believe it. Most of those folks have to know they're being absurd. But I agree saying "nobody" thinks something is over the top. People on the internet can be quite looney tunes.
I mostly use it to aggregate event calendars for all the concert/sport/etc venues, meetups, and clubs in my area and do some other scraping tasks. I host a little wrapper around llm-scraper on a DigitalOcean droplet that I call from Val.town scripts
I only check most places once a week so I use the LLM to do the scraping but there are a few cases where I have to scrape thousands of pages very frequently so I use the more deterministic script it generates instead.
Neither do I, but it's the best solution I've found so far. It beats checking models/prices manually every day to see if anything has changed, and it works well enough in practice.
But yeah, some kind of deterministic way to get alerts would be better.
Also, good luck sending in a PR and getting it merged. Unless you are part of Matt’s inner circle, it isn’t happening. Even the most basic bug fix PRs are routinely ignored.
