Hey @Daniel-Pan, I’m a big fan of your work with Seafile. It’s by far the best open source alternative to Google Drive and Google Docs! I love the idea of this as well. Do you plan…

I just looked at Scaleway’s pricing for two popular open source models (gpt-oss-120b and qwen3.5-397b) and it’s meaningfully more expensive than alternatives (e.g., many you’d find…

Openclaw

Isn’t that what Convex is doing?

Jooq with Kotlin for a back-end has been the best of both worlds for me. Much cleaner, shorter code and type safety with Postgres (my schema tends to be highly normalized too). And…

American here who values individual liberties greatly. I know things are politically tense at the moment, but I’m not sure I understand this popular contemporary sentiment. I’ve al…

42 here, played a ton of Warcraft II, but my favorite to return to now is definitely Warcraft III (or AoE II).

I suspect the timing of this and comments is not coincidental. I pay for Docker licenses, even though not meeting the criteria for business size requiring it, as I wanted reliable …

I do a lot of maps API calls, and found I get better results (and can save money) by using multiple providers. So I use Apple Maps, Mapbox, OpenStreetMap, and Google Maps… sometime…

Hope you enjoy tui4j and brief!

I made some tweaks to the Github releases config, you should be able to do this now as well: curl -L -o brief.zip https://github.com/WilliamAGH/brief/releases/latest/download... un…

Great ideas for both :) I wasn’t expecting the main topic of what I’ve been building to appear on the cover of hacker news today, so I was caught a bit unprepared, but they were de…

It just so happens that I’ve built one already: TUI4J (Terminal User Interface for Java). https://github.com/WilliamAGH/tui4j It combines a port of BubbleTea from Go, and Textual a…

Great advice. Have you observed any other differences? I’ve been wondering if there are any specialized variants yet of GPT-OSS models yet that outperform on specific tasks (simila…

Yes to both comments. I said that to: 1. disclose my method was not quantifiably measurable as the not model, because that is not important to me, speed of action/development outco…

Yes, I run it locally on 3 different AMD Strix Halo machines (Framework Desktop and 2 GMKTec machines, 128gb x 2, 96gb x 1) and a Mac Studio M2 Ultra 128gb of unified memory. I’ve …

I don’t do ‘evals’, but I do process billions of tokens every month, and I’ve found these small Nvidia models to be the best by far for their size currently. As someone else mentio…

Instead of filtering them out, I’d imagine you’d want to establish their equivalency instead? Then they can be made available as equal/similar alternatives to the same article (i.e…

Bad bot. ‘masterphai’ is evidence of how effective a good LLM and better prompt can be now at evading detection of AI authorship… but there’s no way this authors comments are writt…

I suspect I’m not alone in pausing around the statement: > "It’s not likely to be something you’ll ever have at home" I’m curious… what would need to be true to make this statement…

It would be great to have Convex Database support

I just used GPT-OSS-120B on a cross Atlantic flight on my MacBook Pro (M4, 128GB RAM). A few things I noticed: - it’s only fast with with small context windows and small total toke…

Tried Gemini Codes yesterday, as well as anon-kode and anon-codex. Gemini Codes is already broken and appears to be rather brittle (she disclosures as much), and the other two appe…

I wanted to watch the video, but the keyboard typing being the loudest part of the video made it rather hard to listen. I wonder if a tool exists to strip keyboard noise from YouTu…

Just ordered one the UM690S after this comment - I had been looking for another machine like it and saw the sale. Thanks for sharing! I just deployed another System76 machine that …
