anthropic is a private company, so i'm not sure which market you mean. their shares probably trade on secondary markets in low volumes but it would be strange for them to make decisions based on that trading.

investors are driven by herding behavior. for people with enormous amounts of capital to invest, the worst thing would be for them to miss out on the next big thing. If that means losing on a bunch of bets that did not turn out to be the

i can't speak for the project's maintainers and their motivation, but it is workable as a daily use OS if your hardware is supported and you are willing to use the still beta firefox port.

I suppose all languages allow them, depending on how you define a memory leak. Garbage collected languages generally prevent them, since you never have to explicitly free memory, but if there are reference cycles, that memory can never be f

zig is unmanaged memory. But rust also allows memory leaks, and they're not uncommon in large, complex programs. So this rewrite will not necessarily control for that.

layoffs are winning in the short term. investors love them, and if you cut staff but keep revenue that’s profit.

this is an interesting idea and i might try it with something smaller. there are more than 15,000 commits to bun, so you’d have to have some sort of way to operate on groups of commits in one prompt to get that done without thousands and th

This is qwen3.6:27b-coding-nvfp4. It's only an M1. If they ever ship an M5 studio with 96GB of ram, that's my next upgrade path for the local llm experiments. You can get work done with them if you have a harness that can drive ou

qwen3.6 does a good job locally except it can take 20-30 minutes to respond to a prompt on a mac studio with 32gb of ram.

Why are you connecting your agent to a database with write access? Are you out of your mind.

what if writing a blog post without ai was easy?

It's just computation, which the world already depended on. we're in the mainframe era, but "AI" will go personal, and on-device.

gemma4 and qwen3.6 are pretty capable but will be slower and wrong more often than the larger models. But you can connect gemma4 to opencode via ollama and it.. works! it really can write and analyze code. It's just slow. You need seri

If the apple silicon keeps making the gains it makes, a mac studio with 128gb of ram + local models will be a practical all-local workflow by say 2028 or 2030. OpenAI and Anthropic are going to have to offer something really incredible if t
