I completely lost my carefully drafted PR message. Aaargh. Now I'll always back it up as a copy in the future. So bloody annoying, at least they should store the draft in local storage somehow in my browser.

Domain registration doesn't mean that much. Many similar domains are already registered, eg python2shell.com is 5k aftermarket but js2shell.com is unregistered. Might not be a bad investment to register the .com for all the top PLs.


That code font is painful to read, no syntax highlighting and extremely pixelated. It's retro but an eyesore.


agreed, it is bad - pixellated in a blurry way that turns letters into blobs


Dashboard was last updated on September 7, it started on September 5. Bug? Or no progress? It's linked in the blog post so would expect it to work: https://turbopuffer.com/v3


It is working! Check back soon for progress updates. The graphs will update once we have the companion dev log entry explaining the perf optimization.

As you can see from the dates we're a few weeks behind our publishing schedule. Hard to pull ourselves away from the perf hacking to write the dev log entries.


I see, you're updating the graph with 3 weeks delay, that's a bit confusing. Now there are 4 days at least.


This one sentence sounds very LLMish:

> Object storage as the source of truth gave the economics, and tiered NVMe SSD/memory caches gave the performance.


Yes, that construct is, like em dashes, something that humans have been writing for a long time. That's the problem with triggering on one isolated tic. The tic comes from human practice, it's not like they invented it!


I'm not sure I've ever read a sentence like this before LLMs. Maybe I didn't pay attention, possible. I should do a search of pre-LLM writing for this construction.


Is there a Jev-like model I can run on my Mac? Something like Ollama? Or what's the best way to play with it? Is there a cheap/free API service eg on OpenRouter?


Ollaya (https://ollaya.dev) aspires to be Ollama for decision models. It can run Clef Flash, Laya, and other models. I've used it for local testing.

You can list the decision models available on OpenRouter: https://openrouter.ai/models?output_modalities=decisions. There are currently nine.

My AI harness uses Jev or a compatible model to approve shell commands that look safe without asking the user. (This is one security layer.) A quick benchmark (https://github.com/dbohdan/strument/tree/c2320ca142f77495ecd...) has shown that of five models on OpenRouter only Liquid D1 performs similar to Jev for this.



Thanks for the tip! Set it up locally and it works!


We got you.

At0M: A 60M local Jev at 16 ms latency and 79% accuracy on Typed Decision

You can run this model Clef, and many others, in llama.cpp


Jumping on this, what about on-device?

I'd love an privacy first on-device model i could use in iOS.


We got you. How would you use it though ? Through Apps ? Would love to discuss.

This seems like a poorly executed analysis of very interesting underlying data.

With this degree of average age variability they can't compare failure rates.

They should show us Kaplan-Meier (survival) curves not failure in this quarter.

Unless they set some datacenter on fire, not much in Q2 should be different vs Q1 for the same hard drive other than it being older.

Sure, internally, I'd do a better analysis controlled for age that shows if there are common failure rate increases but here they focus on model failure rates which is completely confounded by age differences.


I published the same criticism in relation to one of their earlier summaries. Backblaze responded with something along the lines of (paraphrasing liberally)

> We're giving you this data for free and providing a brief summary of what you should expect to see in it. We do not get paid to teach our readers advanced statistics, nor is that what we want to do. We encourage you to take the raw data and explain to people how you think it should be analysed.

which seems like a fair response. I'm very, very grateful that they release the data freely the way they do. It reflects well on them and more companies should do that.


Oh cool, I missed that the raw data is available. I shall see if I can do the analysis myself then.


For those outside US, in Europe I got "Service unavailable".

Switched on US VPN and it works.

Edit: Now it seems to work. Maybe it was a glitch. Or a US government agent is watching this page.


i am in europe and it works for me


This will be a pain for any US folks overseas


It's always DNS


The title is misleading, they found 24 vulnerabilities in Android _apps_ not in Android itself. That's a big difference.

In their own words from the body:

> I’ve reported more than 20 vulnerabilities in Android applications
