In my opinion, Groq's technical decisions are unsound in a normal world. But being HBM-free may have some merit in a world where HBM supply is constrained.

Ruby also used to use Bison, uses its own https://github.com/ruby/lrama these days.

Yeah. There are other fully open models like Hugging Face SmolLM but they are not common.

With cargo --offline, Rust has better than average support for offline build.

An interesting bit of history: for a long time Rust maintained first party support for Windows XP, after other parts of ecosystem generally gave up. This was because Firefox needed it.

https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/378 (major change proposal to drop Windows XP support) notes this history and links to other relevant pages.

If you look at the actual code, it runs ping -c 5. I agree ping without options doesn't terminate.

Yes, but in fact compensating for bad questions is a skill, and in my experience it is a skill excelled by Claude and poorly by Gemini.

In other words, better you are at prompting (eg you write a half page of prompt even for casual uses -- believe or not, such people do exist -- prompt length is in practice a good proxy of prompting skill), more you will like (or at least get better results with) Gemini over Claude.

This isn't necessarily good for Gemini because being easy to use is actually quite important, but it does mean Gemini is considerably underrated for what it can do.

No, but with tail call (using underlying WebAssembly tail call).

> "We find that comments by GPT‑5-Codex are less likely to be incorrect or unimportant" -- less unimportant comments in code is definitely an improvement!

This seems to be a misunderstanding. In the original OpenAI article, comment here is about code review comment, not comment in code.

I am not sure how your sun example relates. Language is not whole of reality, but it is clearly part of reality. Memory engram of Coca-Cola is encoded in billions of human brains all over the world, and they are arrangement of atoms.
