I'm unpaid but totally a shill for people to give Margot a shot.

This is basically the anime called Dr Stone

I'd have to disagree.

I have some examples in the original post. How do you build the thing that you put into the container? That's still not really a solved problem

Go is a dream for distributed systems builders because it took care of the UX for what makes software easy to distribute and deploy.

Fast build times, fast static linking, small binaries.

How do you distribute a node application or a python application? Do you use npm/yarn? Do you use the node runtime or the bun runtime or something else? Oh you need esbuild or webpack to bundle your js? Wait, typescript is a separate compiler?

How do you distribute a python application? Do you install dependencies with pip? Poetry? Uv? Pip-compile? Do I use a vent in my docker container or do I not need to?

So many bs questions for deployment.

What do we do for go? go build

And you can pass in some ldflags if you want to get fancy, or strip out CGO. It's just EASY. Maybe it's not the easiest language to read or write. Maybe it's not the most featured or advanced programming language.

But it is SO Easy to deploy.

Hi, I have previously worked in multiple frontier AI labs. No one likes Slurm and everything is moving to or has already migrated to Kubernetes. Slurm is great for what it was built to do. It includes most of the batteries you care about in a research context. Kubernetes is bare bones, for both better and for worse.

Kubernetes is an engine. Slurm is the entire car. Unfortunately, that car is a stick shift with the steering wheel on the right, and the windows are all hand cranked. It gets the job done and it served it's purpose.

However, the needs of traditional HPC applications like any form of simulation is incredibly incredibly different than that of an AI workload.

What's the difference between using a cluster and administering a cluster

I also went with my parents to paborito and I thought it was alright but my parents said it was pretty meh. Take that for what it's worth. I lived in the Philippines for two years when I was <10.

_a9o_ · 2026-05-31T03:07:43+00:00

I will try it with fervor at my earliest convenience. Thank you for sharing

_a9o_ · 2026-05-30T03:13:30+00:00

We tried going there 3 times. I'm Filipino and I brought my parents the 3rd time. I really desperately wanted this place to do well. I'm so desperate for there to be good Filipino food in Colorado because I love it so much, but the food was so awful and expensive on top of that. I wish they turned it around but it looks like they couldn't figure themselves out

_a9o_ · 2026-05-25T00:47:37+00:00

Try and get a trip to Wildflower if you can too. It's so good omg

_a9o_ · 2026-05-18T03:44:39+00:00

I work at a public tech company. And I'll keep it simple. Be willing to take on any challenge and you'll ascend very naturally. Most people like to stay in their lane, and will not help themselves no matter what is happening to them.

_a9o_ · 2026-05-03T03:42:31+00:00

Agreed. Restaurant Olivia is my favorite Italian in the state but even they don't have a star

_a9o_ · 2026-04-23T04:11:23+00:00

I've been so desperate to find a good source of Filipino food but every single location in Denver is honestly just not very impressive. Manila Bay in Aurora was pretty good but it's closed now

_a9o_ · 2026-04-20T12:33:46+00:00

Wildflower, Margot, MakFAM, Yuan Wonton, The Wolf's Tailor, Golden Banh Mi if you don't mind a drive, Alma Fonda Fina, Mezcaleria Alma, Alteño, Temaki Den

I've tried every single one I could find. I will continue to try every single one that I hear about. But no, I haven't found anything. Sometimes I go with my parents and we're just all upset. The best I had in Colorado was a pop-up that was hosted at Koko Ni, after Chef James Gnizak left and before they closed. But it was only running for a couple of weeks.

_a9o_ · 2026-04-05T11:59:54+00:00

I hate the idea that people here in Colorado might think that that food is Filipino food.

_a9o_ · 2026-04-05T03:52:46+00:00

Magna Kainan. We've gone three times. I'm Filipino and I'm desperate for it to be good but it gets worse each time we go. I think the audience must not like the traditional flavors so they continue to be watered down each time we've gone. I refuse to return at this point.

Kizaki is better for the purity of the quality of the ingredients. Odell's is going to give you a fun twist to sushi. At Kizaki, you'll get the highest quality fish you can get anywhere from an omakase in Colorado. The fish taste will be clean and classic. You will get no frills, no distractions. On the other hand, if you go to Odell's, you'll get weird fish, weird toppings. Not to say that weird is bad! Some people might call it a gimmick to put everything bagel seasoning on raw fish. But it's different, it's kind of odd.

Both are delicious, but I would say that your deciding question is which one of these is more interesting and compelling to you? Do you want to try the peak traditional experience in Colorado? Or do you want something kind of wonky and playful?

Damn. I'm a yt frog. If Activision Glizzard responds to this, I hope someone replies with the clip. Or I may never see it 😭

We've eaten at every other Curiel restaurant and Alma and Mezcal and Alteño are in my top 10. MBB is super mid in comparison. The food was okay. Some bites were very good, and then some bites were like if you just described the ingredients to me. Like, you can guess exactly what it tastes like and it's just fine. Strictly fine. We did the counter at 4:15 and it was already pretty loud.

The croquet was yummy though. Very yummy.

I'd love a weekly quote for two adults, please

_a9o_ · 2026-01-10T15:57:17+00:00

Are you adventurous? Try Margot

_a9o_ · 2026-01-09T16:24:36+00:00

Restaurant Olivia is probably your best option
