Nah the extension API is pretty limited. Copilot uses proprietary API’s not available to extensions. If you really want an integrated experience, and not just a sidebar UI, you need to go the same route as Cursor and fork Code-OSS (the MIT-

Folks say the same thing about the 1991 Oakland firestorm. If there's a fire in your area, pay attention and don't assume it'll be contained, the situation can change very quickly.

Ditto. This was my conclusion after spending a bit of time building https://robocoder.app/ Coupled with the fact that devs prefer open source tools and are capable of (and often prefer) making their own tooling, it never se

This is the ultimate propaganda machine, no? We’re social creatures, chatbots already act as friends and advisors for many people. Seems like a pretty good vector for a social attack.

Apparently Eric Whitacre (a choral composer popular with high school choirs around 2001-2003) originally wrote Sleep to the lyrics of “Stopping by…” but was sued by Frost’s estate. He can’t release the original until 2038. https:/

There seems to be a subtext here of “see? I told you it was hard!” Nothing wrong with setting out to build a Google instead of a Basecamp. They’re different kinds of company. If anything it’s easy to underestimate the risk of building a low

Based on the context Ilya is not referring to that kind of agent. He’s referring to something more fundamental (which I was curious about, too).

Grammar samplers are clever! But in the case of a missing escape character you’ll end up with a corrupted string. Take for example: "A dog says \"Woof!\"" With a grammar, you’ll end up with "A dog says " when t

As others have pointed out the calculation is 16^6, not 6^16. By way of example, 00-99 is 10^2 = 100 So, no, not the largest site on the web :)

The vast majority of Stripe's fees go to payment processors. I am sure Stripe would prefer to collect those fees for themselves, and pass along some savings to merchants. Crypto is the best avenue for Stripe to do that.

iPad Mini’s (and iPhone’s) 8gb memory will be very limiting. It’s sufficient for 3b models quantized to 4bits, but puts significantly more powerful 8b models just out of reach. This isn’t a huge issue now, but with another 12 months of loca

3b is is API-only so you won’t be able to run it on-device, which is the killer app for these smaller edge models. I’m not opposed to licensing but “email us for a license” is a bad sign for indie developers, in my experience. 8b weights ar

It’s not great as an external display, since the experience is like sitting very close to a massive TV while wearing steampunk googles. You have to turn your head a lot, and eye-tracking is broken for a lot of sites in Safari (eg accidental

It’s a big field! But if you’re in a few discords and a bunch of subreddits, you’re doing it right. The most interesting stuff happens in GitHub PR’s, but you have to know where to look. Kohya’s misnamed SD3 branch has a ton of good flux hi
