I can totally see how people can get into timekeeping.

time to buy some more GPUs
Erik Bernhardsson@bernhardsson
Today we're announcing our Series C funding: $355M at a $4.65B valuation, led by some great investors @generalcatalyst and @Redpoint. We've had insane growth in the last year, but we're still very early. So proud of the team and what we have built so far!

@badcryptobitch @LefterisJP August is a little insufferable but if you can get past the heat, go for it

Also depends where you are flying from and which airport you are going to.
The tickets I found are not for Tokyo!

@jarredsumner @theo Is it possible to break that down into the dependencies implicated? I suspect uv’s unsafe count comes from well tested and standard ecosystem dependencies.
English
@theo `cargo geiger` counts unsafe usage in the compiled output, which is more accurate than grepping source code because it includes dependencies.
I don't think counting `unsafe` usage is a very useful metric, but note that the count for uv is technically higher than Bun.
English
uv has 350k lines of Rust, and 73 "unsafe" calls.
The Bun Rust port is already 681k lines of Rust, and has over 13,000 "unsafe" calls.

Best analogy I’ve heard for using LLMs:
Before AI, everyone was driving at 10 km/h - really hard to spot a bad driver at that speed.
Now everyone’s at 200 km/h - really hard *NOT* to spot a bad driver at those speeds.
The bar has been raised and it’s obvious who’s below it.

Sandboxes need cache space. I don't get how you are going to do fast spin up without it. I feel like all the gains of fast spinup are going to get negated by having to download content.

Thanks all for the suggestions. We need a lot of UUIDs on Turso because we can create so many databases.
The suggestion I liked the most was to reserve a block, so I'd like to reserve every UUID that starts with b00.
If you have an UUID that starts with those characters, please free it and send it to me.
Glauber Costa@glcst
I was planning to use UUIDs to represent the databases we have on the @tursodatabase Cloud. I got a bit worried that we would perhaps run out of UUIDs. I just double-checked and I think we'll be fine for the next year or so. Will use UUIDs for now, and if needed, rearchitect later.
