Now I want to see that 2TB query! Such a cliffhanger!

For files I use the open source Material Files, which supports SFTP servers. So I just have a little file server. For calendar, because Google doesn't reliably support background services, it's best to use a calendar app with buil

Banking and govt. on a cheap, locked Android. The rest (mail, calling?, SMS, web, on an unlocked Android). You'd need two SIMs, one for the banking/govt google play stuff, and one for the regular phone. My bank does support a phy

Which types of tasks, in your experience, show negligable improvement when using larger models? And for what types of tasks do you feel even the best models deliver mediocre results?

This is very cool

Very interesting stuff

How does 397B-A17B compare against frontier? Did anybody try? Probably needs serious HW that most people don't have.

Its an order of magnitude difference in what it can do, mostly because it can verify its own work. It can also use subagents which helps a lot. Large tasks I usually have done by subs with the main agent directing. This means the task they

I like DeepSeek because of their pricing, although I'm still evaluating. I wonder if I'll need a VPN in the future to access it though (from EU). Cheap is good, cheap prevails. The official DeepSeek API is routed through AWS load

If you own a store and people walk in, you observe this and take a mental note. You know who visits the store. If you sell tokens, you know who buys and what people buy. It's just that now, the metadata (what I buy, when I buy, what I

To what extend is this real? What is the probability this will enter law fully? Is it just a proposal?

I think this progressive/gentic vide coding would work better if the tools were better and storing the history in a good immutable way, kind of like an email program. I have very valuable sessions where I give the agent a good ephemera

I think the concept can and will work and become the norm, but there is a lot of refinement and first-principles rethinking still needed. The ideas we see today are still unripe and need work. But we are on to something here.

This is amazing. I think systems like this will power many things in the future; especially professional use of desktop systems. Basiscally most types of desk work, be it low or high skill.

It's really hilariously written

Yes, I've been thinking this as well. Although, earlier civilisations probably also consumed lots of stimulants; mayas, incas, probably countless more.

I love this, very fun writing

It's really a cultural disease to accept this. From my other comment: > I see this in people why have used antagonistic software for decades and have become zombified and shellshocked; the idea that software could be on your side is

I want Google as an app, not OS. Hear me out. Imagine an open device where you can run Google as just another sandboxed app. Inside, they can exert all the control they want. My bank and government can force me to use Google. Then, at least

My hopes are on harness engineering allowing cheaper (but still large) models to shine. I'm evaluating DeepSeek because it would allow insane agent armies. Although DeepSeek charges for thinking tokens, something easy to overlook. Deep

Local? No, not currently. You need about 1TB VRAM. There are many harnesses in development at the time, keep a good look out. Just try many of them, look at the system prompts in particular. Consider DeepSeek using the official API. Conside

> eat the losses Look at your token usage of the last 30 days in one of the JSON files generated by Claude Code. Compare that against API costs for Opus. Tell me if they are eating losses or not. I'm not making a point, actually do

Their model actually doesn't have that much of a moat if at all. Their agent harness also doesn't, at least not for long. Writing an agent harness isn't that difficult. They are desperately trying to stay in power. I don´t li

We know Anthropic likes vertical integration and their walled garden. OpenAI seems to be okay with custom clients using their flat rate subscriptions. But what about Google? Would be great to have a second model that allows use by any clien

We need something vendor agnostic that still allows having a community. Something thats essentially a protocol like bitcoin, email, text, torrents. Probably some of this exists. Then there will be providers offering this a commodity, just l

In addition to a rate limit, a page limit per IP is needed; this is specifically for things like source code repos (with massive commit histories), mailing archives, etc. A whitelist would be needed for sites where getting all the pages mak
