    I’ve started doing a similar thing after reading a post on hn about manually applying the code so that you actually understand it. I have done this for all my work this week and it…

    Is it RLHF if there is no human feedback?

    same things happens with npm and CVEs, most of the ones that bubble up aren't even called in my application so are no applicable. go lang has a scanner [0] which only shows issues …

    that is not an model issue but a harness one, if you don't want it to have io to files or run command then simple don't give it access to the tools.

    I actually use grok as my planner and then composer for coding like opusplan in Claude.

    It seems to me that people have a dislike like for Elon then just blanket everything with the same label. It might be called grok out it was trained by the composer team using a la…

    Cursor has two “modes” agent and ide. In agent mode it’s horrible for editing files etc but better if you are juggling multiple chats

    Putting the whole model in memory is far faster then swapping to disk.

    I think cursor will likely do a grok fine tune rather than a kimi one for the next composer. they noted in their blog post they didn't focus purely on coding for grok 4.5.

    this is why i like golang these sorts of things just don't matter, go fmt move on with life.

    I used to always have deep dread when having to use git but then I found [0] [0] https://ohshitgit.com/

    I encountered the same issue. Kimi 2.7 looked impressive on paper, but in practice, the code was so riddled with errors that I ended up using GPT-5.5 to fix it.

    in the same way claude and codex both use their paid models by default. at least codex and grok are open source so we can see what is going on.

    I always like testing out new things to put into my workflow. the first thing I will say is that its a welcome change to have an app 40 MB rather than over 400

    i remeber reading in one of the release blog posts that that version was the "first that codex helped train"

    The grok-cli is on github[0] there is nothing that I can see in the code that is activily looping ~/ and uploading everything. My two guesses would be one the LLM decided it needed…

    why do people give these LLMs full access to everything and then complain when it does somethign stupid? that is what sandboxes are for.

    Sure Is! I’m largely uninformed on the topic. Asking questions even stupid ones means you get to not be stupid after.

    That’s good to know. This was one of my thoughts. If the evs end up generating a tonne of material that we can’t do anything with that would be a short term gain.

    Well we don’t know but just look at figma, claude for it happened and then Claude design come out. They knew exactly how developers worked from using figma as training data.
