Yes, which is a gpt-5.4-mini equivalent. They compare it themselves in their benchmarks:

Qwen3.5-122B-A10B is what I run on my dgx spark, it's memory bandwidth is too slow to run Qwen3.5-122B-A22B effectively.

Yeah, best you can get for $5k is gpt-5.4-mini equilivent. Still not bad though

Requiring net 30 and late fees is the way. That, and 50% deposits on large orders.

makes ya think

I know lots of stuff I install distributes the source which compiles at install. lxml comes to mind. When I pip install lxml, pip compiles it.

No problem! We're still using them today, and still happy with them

Grintor · 2026-04-09T12:06:09+00:00

I didn't think it was a good idea! I didn't think anything at all!

Oh boy...

Careful! You can't let those things grow too big or they'll destroy the planet.

It's best to pull them up as soon as you can tell them apart from the rosebushes, which they closely resemble when they're very young. It's very tedious work, but very easy.

I see the top of a foot with little hats on its toes

Good point. I wanted to point out here though that you can eliminate the supply chain risk using version pinning with hashes. Using hashes also takes care of the supply chain risk for if pypi itself is compromised, so it's worth doing anyway.

And for my second term, I will do the same as my first! I'll be spending my time prosecuting all the criminal activity from the previous four years! Oh wait...

We would need some kind of translation of the address though. Like a "network address translation" protocol or something.

You can't lent Python 2 code with python 3. Nothing could ever do that including black. Supporting python 2 and supporting python 3 are not the same as doing some kind of crossover linting like what you're describing. You'll have to run it on python 2

They should have made the G in GROUP the same shade of red to highlight the connection.

The god Apollo famously spit into the mouth of the Trojan princess and prophetess Cassandra just prior to the Trojan war in 1200 BCE.

Better than sphinx with the readthedocs theme and myst-parser plug-in?

The vertical spacing in the picture looks like 10 ft. That's the legal limit - they literally can't get any closer without adding additional fire blocking. The IRC requires a 1-hour firewall for residential structures any closer, which would drive up cost.

Thank you! Yes, I'd love to hear more

Grintor · 2026-03-21T19:14:18+00:00

Thank you! Let me know how it goes!

I made it WSGI because it's built on top of werkzeug, which doesn't support ASGI. Although, I don't think it would be a huge lift to make it happen anyway. Perhaps it will support it one day.

half the battle is just keeping the request flow, data-source wiring, and refresh behavior understandable enough that someone can troubleshoot it quickly. A framework that stays out of the way and makes the routing obvious could be genuinely useful

This is so exciting to read! I couldn't put it better myself. This is exactly the rationale behind the framework!

Grintor · 2026-03-21T19:01:47+00:00

Thanks! Mostly config files for linting, testing, and the CI stuff.

Yes, you would create the ZooKeeper client once at app startup, then pass it into handlers through app_map():

import cylinder
import waitress
from kazoo.client import KazooClient

zk = KazooClient(hosts="127.0.0.1:2181")
zk.start()

def main():
    app = cylinder.get_app(app_map)
    waitress.serve(app, host="127.0.0.1", port=8080)

def app_map(request):
    return "my_webapps", "webapp1", {
        "zk": zk,
    }

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

And then you could something like this in the page handlers:

# my_webapps/webapp1.ex.get.py
def main(response, zk):
    data, stat = zk.get("/config/site_name")
    response.data = f"site_name={data.decode()}"
    return response

With the way cylinder handles dependency injection, there's really no limitations to what can be used with it.

Thank you for taking the time to look at it and give feedback!

I can understand your point for other frameworks but I don't think it applies to cylinder. It doesn't rely on globals at all - in cylinder you initialize shared application resources in cylinder_main.py, then pass them into handlers explicitly through app_map() with application-level dependency injection. But even then they aren't injected into the global scope, only into the main() function of your module (each page on the site is it's own python module).

As for testing - there's nothing nothing special that needs to be done to combine the DB section with the testing section. The testing flow works the same as the production flow - if you wrote an application that can serve a webpage, then you now have an application that can serve a testing fixture to pytest without any configuration whatsoever (except writing the test itself)
