Youre missing Christianity, Islam etc.

And the island of Guam is not clickable / visible in landscape mode on the phone.


Solar is good, but come on Germany, would have been nice to still have some of these nuclear powers plants eh.

This horse is deader than disco - which funnily has had a revival this decade. Time to stop beating it.

Because these consultants are only hired to shift the blame and responsibility away from civil servants.

"It was not my fault, we were just following Deloitte advice!"

It always has been a waste of money


People should be aware how much worse HTTPX performs versus Aiohttp. For high scale systems it makes a massive difference


pyreqwest has been delightful so far: https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest

It's been a pleasure to use, has a httpx compatibility layer, and it's fast (https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest/blob/main/docs/b...)


I searched and searched for way too long and could not find any information on whether or not aiohttp supports HTTP/2 or 3... do you know or have any reference that explains what all is supported?



I can attest of that, and in addition of harmful decisions of the maintainer that are loaded foot guns...


AIUI the fork has better performance.


I keep confusing aiortc and aoc


What are some limitations you have found with using a smaller model like that?


As a developer, none related to the model. It’s faster, lighter, makes less assumptions.

For a casual consumer, it is no doubt a worse chat buddy. Knows less historical facts à la Wikipedia.

But I’m not really using LLMs for that kind of entertainment and I don’t rely on them for fact-checking anyway. It’s almost worse to rely on a smoother talker for something it can’t possibly know.

For feeding in thousands of daily updates and getting it to predict the next one based on a crude list of tasks, it’s great. For completing code files in my style, also great. It can also handle most small customer service issues and refunds related to my apps on App Store, the back and forth to collect data from users.

For a booking engine I run with a partner, it is great at confirming bookings and following up. It handles cancellations which are about 40% of confirmed bookings due to the nature of the business. I used to feel like I was wasting my time with them - there is no way we can charge for it. Having basically a smart bot do it makes everyone happier (even the customer who knows they aren’t hurting anyone’s feelings).

For invoices, I prefill notes and things based on previous ones. It’s fine. I don’t need a massive model that takes 30s to reply etc. it’s way overkill. Maybe worse than overkill - off in a direction I don’t need.


Just use JavaScript and you should be fine!


This comment is pure gold


No the study of history started at written records. It's call pre-historical for a reason


Given how long I've been using Graphene, this is not a bad idea also because there has been increasing pressure from governments clamping down on privacy solutions


I like the idea.
