    I'm sad that Andrej Karpathy went from being one of the most reasonable, trusted, and credible voices in AI to peddling marketing slop for Anthropic. 8 months ago, he was (very rea…

    It's better for the billions of free users that Google serves.

    Human brains were shaped over thousands of years of adaptation for warfare. Just look at how creative and advanced the tactics of other guerrilla forces (like the Taliban and Viet …

    I agree with other commenters that the claims made in the report are strange. > We used to rely on our traditional methods. We sent 200 fighters because we had a lot of strength, b…

    Composer 2.5 is 1T total/32B active (based on Kimi 2.5), while Elon publicly said Grok 4.5 is 1.5T parameters total. Hardly a different weight class. The API cost difference is ~2.…

    How are you iterating on a system prompt and tool descriptions without an eval that gives you hard numbers for improvement or regression?

    Do you have benchmarks comparing against Pi? The blog post doesn't include any hard numbers. For example, so far I haven't seen any evidence that LSP integration improves performan…

    This doesn't require computer use, just a bash tool (and possibly fetch to get ffmpeg documentation)

    If software engineering were truly solved, like Anthropic claims, anyone could just vibecode it back. If only they stopped being allergic to the word "open" and open-sourced Claude…

    The kind of farm that would use AI is already 99% machinery and automation.

    It looks like an output of one of those AI video editors that some (often vibecoded) startups use for their product launch videos. Just drop some assets in, and it spams witty tagl…

    This is what many AI supply-chain security startups (like the one that posted the article) are already doing with all NPM packages, so save yourself the Claude tokens. All of these…

    The belief that there is some kind of market-impacting underground "wisdom of the crowd" to be found on all these public social platforms is an artifact of the GameStop craze that …

    I don't know how it could fail - Bun loses popularity among devs? Is it an objective metric? From what I understand, Node.js remains dominant across the industry as a whole, with D…

    A bit off topic, but see how Anthropic publicity stunts went from "Claude C Compiler" with 100K LOC to the recent Bun Rust rewrite with 1M LOC (10x!) in just 3 months. I get that i…

    Your link states it's not supported in iOS Safari at all, even though it has been supported in macOS Safari since 2013.

    Copilot is a legacy brand from 2021 (anyone remembers it's free beta? good times) when it was just a rudimentary autocomplete powered by GPT-3. I don't think it aligns with Microso…

    DRM is an optional Steamworks feature, the developer can opt out by simply not using it. https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/drm

    You are right, I misremembered this announcement [1]. They are switching from a 4-week to a 2-week release schedule this September. [1] https://developer.chrome.com/blog/chrome-two…

    Cool idea, but without longer-term tracking of how long each browser lags for each Chromium release, it's hard to draw any meaningful conclusions. It's also clear that in the case …

    My bet is it's the day of the Super Bowl or the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
