They all get it right if you allow them to think. I just copy pasted your question "The car wash is only 50 meters from my house. I want to get my car washed, should I drive there or walk?" without any further prompt and ran it ag

yeah, I am still using 4.5 for coding. I have started using Gemini Flash on high for general cli questions as I can't tell the difference for those "what's the command again" type questions and it's cheap/fast&

I find the "no one could have seen it coming" crowd extremely tiring, they usually always say that about something anyone who paid a tiny bit of attention could see coming. It's genuinely baffling to me why business owners pa

Sure, I just want the core browser stuff and plugins, security/privacy kinda goes with that. It feels like browsers are like old IDEs where everything is bundled in. I think it would be much better it they were more like modern code ed

I am tired of turning features off. At this point I just want a boring browser that handles html/css/js, bookmarks, tabs (should sleep inactive tabs), plugins (for my chosen password manager and ad blocker), and page zoom. Those a

Does Tailscale/ZeroTier/Netbird provide anything beyond a GUI wrapper for Wireguard? How easy is it to make it manage an already configured Wireguard mesh network?

Yes, I read your comments, but you apparently didn’t read mine. I specifically said for the case where you don’t notice someone. It’s pretty clear that you believe that you are perfect and will never make a mistake. It’s at the very least a

By not signaling you are robbing others on the road the opportunity to avoid a potential accident should you not have seen them. It's maximum selfish fuck everyone else asshole behavior.

I find that hard to believe, every general/average user I have spoken to does not use AI for anything in their daily lives and have either not tried it at all or only played with it a bit a few years ago when it first came out.

Gemini 3 Pro is the first model from Google that I have found usable, and it's very good. It has replaced Claude for me in some cases, but Claude is still my goto for use in coding agents. (I only access these models via API)

From the outside it does look like the US is especially bad at it. Australia has had a pretty good track record with writing/implementing regulations.

Last time I was evaluating different binary serialization formats for an API I was really hoping to get to use one of the cool ones, but gzipped JSON just beat everything and it wasn't even close.

As someone who was a Linux sysadmin for several years, looking after a large fleet of RedHat boxes, I can say that the "don’t break your application" promise is BS. Their patches broke applications several times resulting in havin

That's pretty much how I have been using coding agents. I get them to build small cli tools with a --help option and place them in a `./tools` directory. Then I can tell an agent to use the tools to accomplish whatever task I need

How about something like what runpod does? Shutdown ephemeral resources to ensure there's enough money left to keep data around for some time.

I find the sheer amount of glazing Gemini does unbearably, so I pretty much avoid using it. It’s just an unreal amount compared to GPT-5 or Claude. Gives it a stack trace or some logs and Gemini treats it like the most amazing thing ever an
