    Impressive speed up at the cost of quality - a bit lower quality than 12B model, but multiple times faster…

    if there're some specific tests/evals to satisfy that an agent can test by itself, it can easily iterate for hours. And this time also includes running those tests/evals, which may…

    0.8GB is for text only. It's more like ~1.1GB if you include video/audio encoder

    Could just be more tests? :) Which is good for code quality in general and reduces support burden, but doesn’t lead directly to more features

    imo, it really depends on what you enjoy doing. Regardless of AI, choose software development if you like to build complex systems that no-one has built before, and have enough pat…

    I heard they do CS exams on air-gapped machines at UC Berkley. Use of AI to do CS homework is strongly discouraged, and if someone cheated, it shows up at the exam...

    were you in that room where Adam was making that call? No? didn't think so... Just give people some benefit of doubt. There're much simpler ways to explain certain things that susp…

    There're tons of ways to fine-tune WebRTC that it wouldn't corrupt audio in poor network - it has all of the controls to smoothly trade-off latency vs quality. Not just NACKs - FEC…

    it doesn't necessarily have to be tied to monetization & privacy directly. It may just be that ROI doesn't make sense: very few user out there truly care about (or even understand)…

    amazing to see Claude Code top models still way above all other models for C++ & Java, while GPT 5.5 is higher in Python & JS and others. Shows the skew in the training data sets, …
