For one, I think AI music is ontologically evil and have extreme opinions on the matter. More than that though, I completely disagree that anything I'd ever choose to listen to is …

This was a very pleasant read. There's (justifiably) a lot of debate about AI prose on this forum, which has become tiring. It's refreshing to read something so grounded. Doubly so…

This is super cool! I have always loved projects that try to categorize color space. Usually my work has gone in the other direction - isGray, isCloseToWhite, isPastel - but it's t…

Very impressive headline benchmark numbers. I expected a step change, but not past Fable. That said - it all depends on whether the classifiers make the model unusable...

This is a good idea - and I might pick it up for my writing, since a lot of it still happens in Obsidian. If a document is worked on across multiple days / revisions / app sessions…

It seems that they're trying to push up-market, or at least they were. Given the extremely competitive releases of GLM 5.2 and DeepSeek V4 (both pro and flash), I don't think there…

It's a bit disheartening to see no comparison to other models here - and I'm not sure this pushes the curve anywhere. 3.6 flash is more expensive than GLM 5.2 - but seemingly worse…

> There is no joy of discovery of new music that you haven't heard. There is no connection to other humans through music. Hard disagree here. For new music, Discover Weekly is grea…

Yes - this is certainly true. I would have to concede that I could not speak to how my thesis would map onto a truly colossal codebase. That said - I would (again, maybe naively) s…

Obviously I'm just one guy, but I maintain what I said w/ typing happily at 120+wpm. I think I could break 150 if I switched to colemak or dvorak, which I've been considering. I do…

Yes - I think that's fair. I'm happy to concede the term coding - I still enjoy the process of telling my computer to build something I've envisioned. It's now much faster, and I g…

I guess I'm of two minds on it. Sometimes, I will review every line, test the front-end in a staging environment, verify the backend contract, et cetera. Over time, though, I reali…

I love coding and I always have - arguably moreso now, if you can still call it coding. For me, it is not about the syntax nor the mechanics of typing though. My enjoyment comes fr…

Generally end-user applications, depending on how you classify internal tools. I'm generally very happy with the output of Opus 4.X with a moderately structured CLAUDE.md and some …

I can only imagine that people who say things like: > If you use AI for anything else, and in particularly if you use it to generate code, you're wasting your time. Have not used f…

+1 for the claude icon fire bars

I would add a +1 for testing w/ Word - the official Office suite runs some validation where only Word will show a "broken file" popup, even when nothing else does. In our case, cli…

Interesting - I'll be sure to benchmark it at some point. We've found the best results come from blending providers depending on the task anyways. Thanks for the quick response - a…

Unclear what difference exists against Firecrawl - their team has been shipping great features extremely quickly lately, and their core offerings have become really good. I am inte…

Nor more than a mention of Query Hints, which had some interesting discussion under a similarly-titled submission. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48413655

This seems to be a worse version of another submission [0] I saw a while back - binary octets are easy for anyone who can copy paste; image attributes like edge pressure and stable…

No one takes g2 and product hunt seriously right?

I think Mythos is rumored to be ~10T parameters, so in this case I think the answer is yes, although I'm sure MoE, looped models, etc play a role in the improvements as well.

> AlphaEvolve’s procedure found an algorithm to multiply 4x4 complex-valued matrices using 48 scalar multiplications, improving upon Strassen’s 1969 algorithm that was previously k…
