Fair play; I got too personal here. Apologies.

My approach to this has been a NixOS host with the harness running in a rootless podman sidecar. The host has squid configured with a self-signed CA and networking rules to route a…

That’s been the pitch of Slate Auto, which is supposed to release its standard model at the end of this year. https://www.slate.auto/en Unfortunately, they’ve been suspiciously qui…

Not OP, but having explored the field a good bit, Openrouter + pi harness in a devcontainer work great as a sane starting point. Highly recommend as a clean way to try out the upst…

This is a horrendously bad-faith take. You know full well it’s *not* just a one-off $200 issue: they treat customers like this at scale. Don’t pretend this is an isolated matter, o…

What people typically mean by the GP statement is that the “thinking” mode of these models is loosely analogous to what humans do: a bit of a retrograde reconstruction of how we ar…

Ah jeez, I was missing that detail. Yeah that’s messed up. I skimmed by the “what gets sent” table and thought the bash telemetry was gated by the prompt-related opt-in behavior. T…

Cmon now — I’m a rabid privacy nut but this is unfair given the context of: > Prompt telemetry is opt-in and off by default. The hook asks once; if you don't answer, session-end cl…

Exactly the sort of user hostility I’d expect from a google employee. Shameful. Maybe if practical tools such as like-ratios were in place users could sort good content from bad.

Internet or not, I post under my real name on here, and I fully stand by my words. Anything I say on here, I’m 100% willing to say to someone’s face. We can link up for coffee or a…

It’s not about bigco at all in my eyes. At the end of the day, if you want intellectual curiosity and openness, bad-faith dishonesty needs to be weeded out; thought-provoking and h…

Sure looks to me like this whole case is Claude Code chasing its own tail, failing to debug, and offering to instead generate a bug report for the user when it can't figure out a b…

Not to detract from your point, but I decided Atuin was feature complete enough for my liking over two years ago, and have been running the last v17 release ever since with zero pr…
