Yes, you e always been able to do this, as long as you get an actual contract that's enforceable. The thing about most sites is they're public and you don't need to sign a real con…

You've done a great job with the "how big does it get"/"what will it look like" SVG diagrams, those are incredibly helpful. https://indigene.app/plants/symphyotrichum-subspicatum h…

Yep, I have a 15 year old LED lightbulb that's a "60 watt equivalent" and it works great. It was one of the first LED bulbs I bought, and I only bought one because I remember it co…

> This makes it impossible to copy and paste your passkey to the wrong person (someone trying to trick you). It also, unfortunately, means it's not possible (via most passkey imple…

The point is to not give every user (especially the LLM user) sudo access.

By my eye it's not that different, it's riffing in it from a Lisp perspective. It's pretty amazing to write your own agent BTW. I've got a zero-dependency all-in-one-file agent har…

I was a student whenever I wrote my old bios but I've been a developer professionally for over 10 years at this point. My inspiration was the mayor idea from Gastown, plus wanting …

Yes, it's a "cloud provider" but it's a cloud provider running an open model you can download (and that other cloud providers do host). I just happen to not have a computer big eno…

Have you been using those models? I've been using a hand-rolled orchestrator with Mimo v2.5 (I seem to be paying $0.017 per million/tokens after their heavy caching) and it's been …

No, and that's the point of the article. What you are calling parallel w/r/t IO should be called concurrency (conceptually happening at the same time by virtue of being able to int…

As I understood it, the "randomness" affecting what is selected at any temperature still comes from a PRNG or CSPRNG (or whatever RNG you want, maybe a hardware one), and if you wh…

Is there such a thing as "unbiased public opinion" at all though? The memetic effects of language and communication means propaganda and similar tools of rhetoric and leveraged com…

I asked the DBOS folks about this before; the idea is that there is no "coordination node", only the workers and the DB. See DBOS folks previously: https://news.ycombinator.com/ite…

Your solution "appears" to solve the problem, but without any information about how exactly that solution works, it's just magic an vibes. Does the harness parse the contents of CL…

Sure, and the delivery robots have people who want the things at the end, and the robots can't (apparently) go in the road. Roads used to be for people and wagons, till cars showed…

Bashing on ollama is totally warranted, since ollama is a UI skin around llama.cpp and that's it. If all you cared about was "I want to run a model and use it via an API" then the …

I've tried Opus 4.6 in the Opencode harness through the Github Copilot API, and I've tried Opus 4.8 in Claude Code. I found I preferred Opus 4.6 in Opencode (and in general, I like…

I use it, it's good, I get work done, but know that they really mean it when they say > "Quality is like running edge models from 8-12 months ago" Don't expect Opus, expect more li…

You can do this, it is useful, but it's just not the same as where the goalposts are now which is: the AI is a person in a box and can do everything a person can. If we actually li…

I suspect it's worth exploring if that will change as AI is allowing more and more "human words -> machine effect", which may be more ergonomic for the AIs. It could take a long ti…

Or, as they said, they didn't want to have to think about it so they chose to switch.

You should read the link they provided which goes into detail on the architectural shortfalls of Gooey due to an accelerated development.

It's done that way as an overreaction to B2B customers which may want totally isolated per-tenant systems. Take Okta login for example. Okta wants to offer big hyper-secure custome…

Something is definitely going wrong with your Qwen setup, in the link you posted it starts and ends with a compaction step due to a 4k token context limit. Qwen 35b supports I thin…

A gaming PC can already host models that perfectly serve casual users who just want recipes, todo tracking, picture identification, etc. E.g. Qwen 3.6 35b which will run on a $650 …
