I've been experimenting with providers offering similar functionality for the last year and it is really vastly superior experience this codex like approach than cursor, devin etc
I posted about these guys last year when they published at the time what was a sota swebench score in summer 2024. Does anyone have insight into what they are doing to achieve this?
I posted a blog post by these guy's last year where they also claimed to have a SOTA swe-bench score in summer 2024. They seem to be reporting even better scores than o3. Does anyone have insight into what they are doing? Is this legit? Or are they eval maxing?
In Windows 11 you can restart it without losing data, though, which is nice, since its so fast that it starts almost instantly. Because of that speed, I test all the funky software in it first, and some I run in it exclusivelly as you can create "run in Windows Sandbox" fairly easyly and customize what runs on startup via pwsh script.
I would love the option for it to survive the closure though, that would open entire new world of possibilities. It doesn't have to compete with full HyperV setup if you open just a few more options.
Yeah, I don't 100% trust the new CurseForge app for updating World of Warcraft addons, but it's kind of necessary when you have 10+ addons. But with some poking and a Windows Sandbox configuration file, I can just launch it in a sandbox now and mount the addons directory, update/install, and wipe the sandbox.
It's a neat Sandboxie replacement once you start playing with mounts and startup scripts.

So did they also fix the rather annoying issue that if you shutdown the OS in sandbox it displays a 'The connection to the sandbox was lost.' dialog instead of quitting the process? We use it to run automated tests, for which it is actually pretty great with the .wsb files makeing it easy to get data into it and run script, but it's a bit silly one needs to workaround detection of whether the thing exited by using files for signalling the script is done with a timeout then killing all involved processes.
There are various websites that resell MSDNAA keys for 2 Euros or so[1].
I got a Win11 Pro and Office 2021 Pro for dirt cheap there, the keys worked (after a phone activation IIRC), and haven't had any problems so far. Without access to such prices I would have switched to Linux and LibreOffice already as there's no way I can pay full retail prices for those.
Beware this is a legal gray area, I'm not affiliated, not endorsing this practice, and not responsible for your outcome. I assume Microsoft is aware of these practices but turns a blind eye as that just means more users into their ecosystem anyway, so why ruin the party.
Eh, it mostly works on .Net Core. There's still some bugs with the compiler around Generative Type Providers when running the compiler on the .Net Core runtime, forcing you to compile with a build of fsc running on mono or the full .Net Framework.
Still, for all intents and purposes you are correct - but there's still some growing pains in the tooling that are hard to ignore.
Meh, the reason many people weren't targeting .Net Core until recently was because of the huge pain in the ass it involved. .Net Standard 1.0/1.1 were missing a LOT of API surface area that many libraries needed. .Net Standard 2.0 fixes this, and makes life easier for library authors who already support multiple runtimes in the process by providing a sane upgrade path from the hell that is PCL's. It's all about tooling, there's no reason for library authors to not target .Net Standard in their projects now unless they really need some Windows/Full-specific assembly that isn't included.

+1000. It wasn't even library support, it was the tooling that was a huge pain in the ass. Half the time it didn't work right, builds broke unexpectedly, build file formats kept changing, cripes what a pain. I swore off it until the early .NET 2.0 standard prereleases when things seemed more stable, and it's been much easier to port my libraries.
I've been using .NET Core since it was released. Sure in the beginning library support was spotty at best, but that was quite a while ago. I have yet to find a popular library that doesn't support .NET Core/Standard.
But will it work, or will miners gladly pay the extra $100? AMD would love that -- miners won't redeem the games or the discounts, so that extra $100 is pure profit.
Is that how those bundles work? AMD only pays when the game gets activated/redeemed? I always thought they just buy a bunch of game licenses and pay upfront.
Miners might want to sell the games/discounts to recoup their losses. After all, if you get a $50 discount on a $200 monitor then you can just re-sell it new for $200 and get your money back.
Which is US only. The only reason to buy was the bundle, which is a good deal. Same performance as 1080 at the same price with double the TDP and will have limited stock. There is no reason to buy Vega as a gamer.
