I'm curious if Quarto could coordinate all of that for you automatically. It supports both code execution via Jupyter, and output via Typst (including books).

Poor Drew, if only he’d taken Steve’s advice! /s


I think you make a good point but the use of samples in hip hop doesn’t support it; those samples need to be licensed.


This is very much untrue, and the debate about exactly how much sampling constitutes fair use has gone one for many years and court cases.


Here are some examples of the questions in the benchmark. If these are representative, they seem pretty cut and dry. https://artificialanalysis.ai/evaluations/omniscience#exampl...

Former E36 owner here as well. What are "monkey pissers"?


Sorry, that's local vernacular jargon and I should do better to define these terms on introduction of them. ;)

Most people call them windshield washer nozzles, or similar. But I find that they're about as useful for that job as I imagine that a monkey pissing on the window might be, so I find the other description -- while vulgar -- to be a better fit.

Anyway, they're heated on cold-weather E36s. IIRC, it's temperature-activated and independent of the defrost switch.

---

It's supposed to go something like this on a ice-crusted day with an E36:

1. Find the door lock completely frozen and inoperable

2. Lift the outside door handle for a few seconds to engage the lock heater (!)

3. Succeed at unlocking car.

4. Get in. Start the car. Turn on the front and rear defrosters and the headlights. Retrieve the scrapey-thing

5. Back outside, start scraping.

6. Get tired of that and climb back inside.

7. Try the wipers to see how clear the windshield isn't.

8. Engage the monkey pissers, which are probably de-iced on their own by now and flowing freely

9. Grumble a bit at the results

10. Go to step 5


"Disingenuous?" Just because someone finds the style irksome, and chooses to share that here, they're deceptively, calculatingly trying to derail the conversation? That's an extremely cynical and uncharitable take.

If I were the author of the post, I'd value the feedback.


Except that is not what this place is for, at all, and flirts with several explicit posting guidelines. It doesn't make for good discussion, doesn't address the topic at hand, etc.


Open core can work, but you really have to find very strong product market fit on the proprietary side--ideally with features that discriminate between users who are relatively happy to pay and users who are not. (There's a reason "SSO tax" is so common.)

And you really have to believe in open source and have the discipline to keep investing in it, otherwise the temptation is ever present to throw more and more effort and resources into the proprietary parts.


Quaid Army?


For that purpose I think most people are using bubblewrap or seatbelt/sandbox-exec with CPython.


From https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47171887 re: [agent] sandboxing :

pydantic/monty, vercel-labs/just-bash, amla sandbox, csl-core, microsandbox, workerd, wasmtime-mte

containers/bubblewrap: https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap#sandboxing

The bubblewrap readme mentions containers as binaries with binctr; I guess without overlayfs or other file-level re-deduplication due to the container fs in the binary.

Perhaps similarly, also TIL UKI are easier for UEFI Secure Boot to check signatures on than (kernel, initrd) pairs
