I would not recommend DSV4F (even 0731 edition) without an advisor. On its own it’s an absolute drunk intern in my experience, but with an advisor model watching like a hawk when i…

Who lives on one of the coasts where that job likely requires them to be, where rent is $3-5k and mortgages within spitting distance of that, sure.

Especially with anything resembling a usable amount of RAM. Mac Minis and Studios >=64GB are basically permanently sold out everywhere, because everyone, including commercial entit…

Somewhat with you on this. I got slightly excited for a brief moment, but then the site starts to scream "an LLM threw this together super quickly" which doesn't spark joy at all. …

Using even double the total tokens and taking, what, 2-3x the time?, still seems worth it if prices are 5x+ cheaper (which OpenRouter [1] claims is the case). On NeuralWatt for my …

Wildly unfriendly and standoffish, but also extremely unaccepting of dinguses blasting music without headphones on trains and buses. You win some, you lose some. I’ll embrace the s…

OpenCode is a quirky, buggy mess in my experience, but Pi is pretty solid and I’m glad to have recently switched over. Zerostack looks promising for certain types of users too.

4-5 bit quants would probably fit pretty well on your rig. Check HuggingFace for Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-MTP-GGUF [1]. They've also got a cool UI thing these days to help indicate which qu…

Another sibling thread already called this out, but mentioning here: it's not "USA only", it's "US citizens only" (and I'm not entirely sure how dual-citizenship interacts with thi…

Coding plans are a (massive) subsidy. We can debate until the cows come home whether western frontier models' API pricing rates are fair, but the coding plans are all heavy discoun…

Because we pay for the models. If I pay you for a service, what implicit right should you have to then continue to profit in perpetuity by storing the data I paid you to process? I…

Windows support is huge. One of the barriers to me considering QBE for a project in recent memory was that it had no story for proprietary OSes (Windows, MacOS), and whether I like…

They're comparing to Haiku, not Opus. Haiku is currently at 4.5. Even if it were Opus, comparing to a version number makes for an interesting snapshot of time comparison: if you kn…

My understanding from a friend who has one of these machines is that while 120Hz works, VRR does not and so the panel can’t clock down to save battery life when you’re just idling …

Depending on the company, you sometimes get routed to the angry people recovery section when you do this. And so then, the Comcast agent on the other end is in stern counselor mode…

I would not. I know a handful of folks who can kinda sorta make their way through hello world in assembly with the docs open, and a handful more who could maybe implement some of t…

I only wish I could find these "a little bit empty", "80-85%" flights. Any flight I've been on in the past 4 years has been filled to the brim and gate-checking anyone who didn't p…

GP is clearly providing examples of categories of tasks. Sure, not all languages do “async fn foo()”, but almost all problem domains involve some sort of making sure the right thin…

Oftentimes comically lower. I remember in Chicago the interstates having posted speed limits of 45mph... the average flow of traffic outside of rush hour was easily north of 70mph.…

Amazing. I hope this gets tons of use shaming zero-effort drive by time wasters. The FAQ is blissfully blunt and appropriately impolite, I love it.

To each their own. The OS is easily one of the most frustrating I’ve ever been required to use. It does some things very well, but many things absolutely infuriatingly. Now, yes, a…

I’ll give you an anecdote: my work laptop is an M3 Pro MBP, and my Dell U4025QW works just fine with it over Thunderbolt at 120Hz VRR

16e has OLED, the new thing with the 17e screen is the ceramic coating on the glass.
