I've seen these systems at US defense industry tradeshows so I'm guessing they are in use somewhere.

It's crazy that the title is largely clickbait because he's a Deepmind employee who reps Gemini AI Studio.

So if you're just gonna do a clickbait project...why pump the competition?

>What a weird thing to say. It's not a team sport where you support 'sides'.

It is if you have equity!

Yes https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/billing#spend-caps

Yes, we host it ourselves, acting as the data processor which can be important for enterprise customers.

From developer experience, hosting them ourselves allows us to take advantage of our unique infra and deliver fastest time to first tokens of the providers.

I think a cheat code here is to route your requests to GCP's Vertex AI, which has stronger uptimes. Can use it as a fallback or main provider.

Caveats: 1) May not be economic for those on flat-rate Anthropic subscription plans 2) I work at Google.

The lock-in is around identity services, right?

Servicing the jobs-to-be-done of the core applications is pretty straightforward I think.

I'm not sure what keeps people locked in besides identity. Article doesn't really specify.

Negative, the Department of War was the predecessor to the Dept of the Army. There used to be a Secretary of the Navy and a Secretary of War, both of whom rolled up direct to the president.

Following post-WWII reorgs, the DoD was created and the Secretary of War became the Secretary of the Army, reporting to the Secretary of Defense.

Why MacOS only and not Windows?

hard to beat the MSFT bundle

That's the $XXM question.

Yes, I'd think Openshift with Kubevirt would be positioned to move in. Lots of Openshift in some of the sectors I've worked with so seems like a natural expansion.

I forgot about MSFT's ability to bundle Hyper-V though which seems to come up in this thread a lot.

Love the username.

grok 4's controller lol

I was the internal tools PM that looked at the portfolio of products and asked, "Why aren't all of these just Google Sheets?"

Pivoted out of there lol

i don't really understand why folks are downplaying this in the comments:

some engineers who write the code for production US systems that contain controlled unclassified information live in china. the US government was unaware that this was happening because MSFT hid it from them. as a result, govt stakeholders are/were unable to assess the risk.

all MSFT ATO's should be revoked.

some of the comments point out that foreign workers will help maintain facilities overseas, but govt stakeholders are aware of this, assess the risk, and implement risk controls.

but shady M$FT hid this from govt, and that amplifies the problem!

Say that I'm an amateur historian. I go into an archive and scan a bunch of documents (letters, diagrams, maps, etc). They're saved as JPG files.

What's the best way to make sense of that corpus of knowledge? Is it Rlama or something else?

I'm currently trying to homebrew this with Gemini, but am not sure if there's something that gets me out of building a RAG system from scratch.

Trmnl was referenced but also this one https://learn.pimoroni.com/article/getting-started-with-badg...

So one could retain the contents of every website every visited and then run local, in-browser searches against that content? Is that the idea? This library would serve as the vector DB?

Hellfire on its way now

couldn't be it reasonably construed as an official act if the president believed that person was a member of a terrorist group? the post 9/11 Authorization of Use for Military Force grants the president the use of all "necessary and appropriate force" in prosecuting terrorists.

this act is still in effect.

Lol what?? What's their retention policy?

I guess I’m surprised it’s against the law to train Chinese pilots? Anyone know what specifically is prohibited here?

R-D-F-G as the controls is wild lol. Any reason people can think WASD wasn't used?

I guess I'm kind of a dummy on this, but why is it impressive to identify that a .js file is Javascript, a .md file is Markdown, etc?

"it's a chat app, michael. how much design does it take?"

I’m a human and i dont know the answer to that quesiton

how specific is the hobby? are folks generalist collectors or do people go deep on a specific region/period?

what's the consequence of this? kids can bypass parental controls? just making sure i understand
