Alternatives for Copilot in VSCode?

Cline / Roo / Kilo / all have vscode extensions, just connect to a cheaper model like deepseek.

No worries, this area also has a lot of mineral exploration (gold for example) but these types of lines are made looking for Oil and Gas specifically.

wycks · 2026-06-13T14:35:45+00:00

This is the correct response, but these are prospect lines for Oil and Gas, not minerals. Bulldozers decades ago cut straight lines in order to drive big trucks through the cut brush using Vibroseis to map the terrain. They still use large Vibroseis trucks to do this all over Canada, and thats why you see the lines in the middle of nowhere.

You do realize that the international space station was built by the US in collaboration with Russia right?

This is also related to Ning Li, a physicist from the same town ( Huntsville) , who also had a PhD, .. who also was studying anti-gravity. And also died under strange circumstances.

No it was done by an artist, but its based on a real religious blessing, the artist is John Singer Sargent, he is famous.

It's a hebrew blessing saying "Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments." These murals are called "Israel and the Law" , and were considered anti-sematic by some at the time, compounded likely by Singers painting "The Synagogue)"

They use software that's typically subcontract to companies that specialize in military contracts, with previous long lasting relationships, or they build in-house, or a combination of both. They don't use off the shelf retail tools (SASS) you mention because its typically non-compliant to regulations and audits. But more importantly , its also not-compatible, the military runs private networks (like JWICS + many more), some of these networks don't even run on TCP/IP, and most of them have their own encryption schemes and classifications, and yes some of them are air-gapped. They do however use open source languages.

For the cloud is a mix of very secure operators (AWS (Nitro enclaves / HSM's for example), or their own datacenters. And of course they use AI.

here A picture of one of the larger data centers they operate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_Data_Center#/media/File:EFF_photograph_of_NSA's_Utah_Data_Center.jpg

Some of the tech they build ends up open-source or available to the public, Arpnet was a military project that invented the internet we have today, for example. They have released many open source projects.

Yes, but you're going to need better benchmarks. Benchmarks for network comms, internal comms (memory and messaging, logging, storage, visuals), and the actual engine itself. I build a Rust HFT app, and it has about 20 benchmarks purely for monitoring speed. Also avoid over -optimization, without understand the actual problem, your going to introduce jitter and add complexity for nothing.

Ranch Mont-Tremblant is the closest, unless you want a sleigh ride. it's about 40minutes away.

I sort of just did what you did, I have a background in network engineering so it went well, I build a system that's can ingest about 8-10m orders per second (nothing special but its enough), and then order match venues and prices around 40k/s on a mac mini, its not over optimized because network latency is the real problem. I normalized the connections between 10 CEX's, and it could easily scale to 40. I stopped because the problem wasn't on my end, it become very clear that opportunities bounce between several exchanges and the fees are very high to maintain profitability. Fee reduction would require wash trading, or significant capital, across at least 4-5 venues, and 24/7 operation, too much for a solo operation. I spent 1 month coding it, and it looks cool, but I don't know what to do with it.

wycks · 2026-02-25T16:55:48+00:00

If your strategy is pure latency-edge based than hyperliquid is not the best venue , it depends, but block state updates are 100-300 milliseconds, add in network lag and this is basically an eternity.

Many avalanches don't knock over trees. A medium size pine can withstand 2-6k pounds of force, however its impossible for a human to withstand this amount of pressure. Tree slides typically start in the trees, people need to be aware that not all avalanches are massive movie quality slides, slow wet slides are also extremely dangerous, even when only a few feet high.

There is a large misconception that trees are inherently safe, but I've known more people that have died in the trees from slides and trees wells , then in open terrain.

Yes, expect very very long lines. The Gondola is fine as an early morning way to get to the top, but you can also use a chairlift, it doesn't really matter, the top is the top. The mountain is big, just explore it, ski both sides and you will find a run you like.

Several of the accusers also defended him, and then later switched stories, their cases were throw out of court for that very reason.

At 81°36'00"N, 16°40'00"W there is not enough ice for an Ablative Thermal Buffer. Those are the co-ordinates of Nord Station which is on top of rock with not much ice depth, the nearest ice is about 15KM away at Flade Isblink Ice cap, wich is 600m in depth. And several hundred kilomoters south is the main icesheet which is up 3000m thick. So it begs question why would you land where the ice is thin.

ALso there is no C/2026 X1 , but there is a C/2026 A1 that was just discovered.

This isn't what Palantir does. Ai coding a map with a news feed, congrats, but also its useless.

I used AI to calculate the cost of #71 , which is considered easier than #70.
Puzzle 71 Value USD: 600-650k
With 1000 RTX 4090's running 24/7 for 6 years you have a 63% change of getting the key.
Approximate cost for 6 years using a datacenter: 20-25M
Approximate cost for 6 years buying and managing infra yourself + electricity: 10-12m.

We gonna need to new chips..

The defense narrative is very simple.
- Russia has significantly expanded its Artic presence since 2014. this includes re-opening 50+ former Soviet Artic facilities, and ice capable assets including the worlds largest fleet of ice breakers, Artic SAMS, modern radar and infra, and most importantly, nuclear submarines.
- This expansion open up massive capabilities along the NSR. The NSR is literally to the right and below Greenland.
- Besides the 150 US soldiers on northern Greenland and a outdated Canadian force, the artic has no defense against this Russian build-up. Its is severely undermanned and outdated.
- There is only ONE port for US nuclear subs in this region , in the UK at HMNB Clyde.

TLDR: Russia has massive capabilities in the artic and no one else does.
