There is still a "community" on platforms such as Mastodon, reddit, various repo's. But I don't think there is a single community that can be pointed to as "The Emacs community". T…

I understand your point of view, but as far as the Emacs community is concerned there is no problem. Emacs is not an editor. Emacs is not an IDE. Emacs is a platform to develop you…

Working on improving AI Nexus - my custom LLM frontend that exposes all AI Models in a single interface: https://getainexus.com/

I generally try to avoid adding external links as I found that those resources tend to get lost very fast. Of course, this is not always feasible, but whenever I can try to copy ov…

This is great! We need more ASCII games/simulations and it's only a bonus if it's in Emacs :-)

Do you mind sharing your contact / shop? Email in profile if you don't want to share publicly.

I often use DuckDuckGo in HTML mode ( https://html.duckduckgo.com/html/ ) when I'm using EWW in Emacs.

I agree that there is a steep learning curve compared to Github pull requests or Gitlab merge requests, but like many things the steep learning curve actually hides a very powerful…

Personally I find the information density of text to be the "killer feature". I've tried voice interaction (even built some AI Voice Agents) and while they are very powerful, easy …

Sure to protect your machine, but what about data security? Do I want to allow unknown code to be run on my private/corporate data? Sandbox all you want but sooner or later your da…

Correct, I wouldn't use it myself as it's a trivial addition to your implementation. Personally I keep all my work in this space as provider agnostic as I can. When the bubble even…

I was referring to letting LLM's search github and run tools from there. That's like randomly searching the internet for code snippets and blindly running them on your production m…

^ this. Careful design of what tools are passed when is key to good agent design.

Security nightmare inbound... The example given by Anthropic of tools filling valuable context space is a result of bad design. If you pass the tools below to your agent, you don't…

The "Tool Search Tool" is like a clever addition that could easily be added yourself to other models / providers. I did something similar with a couple of agents I wrote. First LLM…

Don't give anyone any ideas. We now have SEO, GEO, AEO and now TEO? :-p

And Emacs. Sure Elisp isn't the best lisp around (Personally I would give that title to Common Lisp), Emacs is a good Lisp environment.

Hey HN! Just launched the beta of AI Nexus and wanted to share what I'm building. The problem I'm solving: I was paying multiple LLM subscriptions (ChatGPT Plus + Claude Pro) and c…

Sending the whole context on each user message is essentially what the model remembers of this conversation. ie: it is entirely stateless. I've written some agents that have their …

I didn't glace at it, I read it :-) The architecture is a 'unified memory bus', so yes the GPU has access to that memory. My comment was a bit unfortunate as it implied I didn't ag…

Qwen has some really great models. I recently used qwen/qwen3-next-80b-a3b-thinking as a drop-in replacement for GPT-4.1-mini in an agent workflow. Cost 4 times less for input toke…

You need memory on the GPU, not in the system itself (unless you have unified memory such as the M-architecture). So we're talking about cards like the H200 that have 141GB of memo…

oooh, nice burn ^^

Is working than 60 hours a week necessary to have a good team? Sure, having FU$ as you put it removes the necessity to keep the scale of your work life balance tipped to the benefi…
