I canceled my Netflix subscription when the TV app was crashing every time I try to use my USB headset when playing their content. Prob some DRM b.s.

What does "Built for rack-scale agentic efficiency" even means?

If you read past the marketing talk, this is basically a massively multicore system (136) with significantly reduced power usage (300W).

Where does Agentic come into this? ARMs explanation is that future Agentic workloads will be both CPU and GPU bound thus the need for significant CPU efficiency.

Big "but mongodb is web scale" vibes

We just say words now that sound good for marketing but have no real meaning.

> now

I’d argue we have always done that, and in fact it’s basically the definition of marketing!

It's volume of tokens consumed x number of agents x rack space. Basically agentic computation density.

How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?

It's a code sentence for let's go to the utility room to cross pollinate ideas.

Lots of isolated firecracker instances for openclaw like agents.

It's when LLM agents are inefficient that you need a whole rack of servers to get shit done.

I was gonna say just big DCs in marketing yap but really wtf does that mean?

We were close but the app dominance declined.

Finally, tired of creating this custom filter in all my devices lol. I wish it would all automatically apply the "videos" filter as well.

The elephant in the room is China also being partially successful with their chips

Anthropic is still a new company and so far they seem "friendly". That being said, I still feel this can go either way.

Yep. Remember when "Open"AI took a bunch of grant money and then turned for-profit?

And kept their fraudulent name.

That’s kind of why Anthropic became a separate company in the first place though isn’t it? Dario Amodei was former head of research at OpenAI and left along with 6 or 7 others to form Anthropic.

Maybe! Sounds like you know a lot more about it than I do.

I hope they won't be as douchey.

How does an app inspect other app's storage data (like whatsapp). I thought Android security model blocked that. Does it have root access?

It probably just asks you to enter the associated WhatsApp number

Is it removing cf as the middleman temporally such a big deal?

I think that really depends on feature usage. You can use Argo/Cloudflare tunnels to route to private backends that are normally unroutable. In such a setup, it might be quite difficult to remove Cloudflare since then you have no edge network and no ability to reach your servers without another proxy/tunnel product.

If you're using other features like page rules you may need to stand up additional infrastructure to handle things like URI rewrites.

If you're using CDN, your backend might not be powerful enough to serve static assets without Cloudflare.

If your using all of the above, you're work to temporarily disable becomes fairly complicated.

It depends. The site is up, but now you're pumping 10x/100x the traffic. What are you scaling up?

Suddenly you're not blocking bots or malicious traffic. How many spam submissions or fake sales or other kinds of abuse are you dealing with? Is the rest of your organization ready to handle that?

Dont you need ECC in your db nodes?

N100 is my homelab, for playing. For instance I have a kubernetes cluster running KubeVirt, which runs 5 VMs, which ... have a kubernetes installation (so I have multiple worker nodes doing a "distributed filesystem" all of which is resharing disks from the same SSD). My production servers are generally older Xeons with ECC ram, which are also running kubernetes.

N100 supports DDR5 memory (although 1 channel) but I believe DDR5 has some error correction... May not be full ECC

amazing how nobody even know about ECC these days.

see so many series B+ companies running DB and storage without a care in the world.

Pretty much this. Most companies have the "devops" folks fully dedicated to maintaining the cloud stuff.
