I like having my garbage picked up at the curb, but I wouldn't want to live downwind from a landfill. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/we-should-improve-society-som...

They got rid of the 5hr quota, it's just weekly quotas now.

Ah, sorry, you're right. I would be willing to be that Kimi could do a decent job today, but definitely not for 1% of the price.

They're a few months behind the frontier, which, by the way, only started making these discoveries in the last few months.

My stream of barely-intelligible rambling comes out much faster than I can type, and it's not even close. It's a skill like any other. You start out stuttering and second-guessing yourself, but after a while, you get better at it.

You seem to be assuming that the real estate agent was in the process of selling them a house.

Wow, quasar is still around? It seems to be pretty niche, but I've only ever heard good things about it.

I was profiling a slow machine the other day, and triggered the safeguards. I've been saying this a lot lately, but it doesn't bites you until it bites you. The more you use the clanker as a general purpose fix-it tool (goodbye ma

But then someone would write an article complaining about how the newly-injected date confused their agent!

I think GPT 6 will be OpenAI's response to Fable/Mythos. There are (baseless) rumours that it will be coming fairly soon.
73.
by arcanemachiner 3mo ago
They're probably not going to remove Fable. They just extended it for another month.

Did you enable the flicker-free TUI mode?

I have my LLM agents fact check each other as a matter of course. They each regularly find things that the other missed. They are typically the same model (Opus).

Eh, it doesn't hit you until it hits you. I finally bumped into a task that Codex would refuse to work on. Was I attempting to reverse-engineer a GPU driver? Yes. Was I trying to hack into the DoD? No. I wasn't doing anything wro

No, that was totally different. They were just doing that for your safety.

I'll probably never use this, but at least they're not delusional enough to attempt to justify keeping their coding agent closed-source, especially after their recent data-harvesting cockup: https://cereblab.com/

Probably at least two.

Isn't Fable just Mythos + guardrails? Sounds like you did throw Mythos at it.

Yes, there is an LLM feature that we have anthropomorphized as "reasoning" or "thinking", where an LLM has a scratch space where it can dump tokens that help to improve the final output.

OpenAI, to their credit, seems to be focusing pretty heavily on token efficiency in GPT 5.5 and beyond.

I have a functional Pi config, mostly self-made (it has everything I want, incl. subagents, web search, a /btw command, and other misc. addons), and my system prompt is ~3k.

You can't afford the best model. What are your specs and what models + quants have you tried? Qwen 3.6 35B A3B and Qwen 3.6 27B can both do reliable tool calls on Pi at Q4_K_M using llama.cpp

Wow. That article totally sucked me in!

nginx is also Russian, so don't use... a third of the web.

People work on different things, fail to mention their field of usage in the comments, and then misunderstand the experiences of others who do the same. Repeat ad nauseam.

by arcanemachiner 3mo ago
I find that I have to tell GPT and Claude to keep asking me questions, or they will just fill in the gaps themselves (wrongly).

They also stopped making them again.

The $5 is so they can see if open weights models are worth using, not so they can use it for a month. (Which you can't; The quota runs out way sooner than a month for any serious usage. Still worth the price of entry.)
