> even Japan dropping a credible model if fugu/fugu ultra was good, why aren’t we hearing about how good it is? seems super slow and expensive, and everyone i’ve talked to who tried it gave up

it’s still significantly far ahead of openai. gpt 5.6 looks like “better 5.5”. fable does not feel like better opus 4.8.

if you’re building on LLMs you gotta have an eval and prompt iteration pipeline, and you ought to be evaling every model release — your competitors will do this, and your users will want the latest and greatest (for frontier tasks) and the

i don’t think 5.6 will be as good as fable. their benchmark graphs say so, maybe they’ll take some limiters off next week or something now that being Fable tier isn’t scary anymore.

fixing minor bugs takes one slack message for us now. bugs go down, goodness go up. fixing more serious regression also easier. connect honeycomb mcp, ask agent to debug while i walk to coffee and get some pistachio rose dates. by time im b

idk dude killing someone is pretty different from doing nothing i think it’s more like “i’ll give you keys to my alien space ship, but our culture doesn’t write things down in a language you understand. be careful!”

yeah the fact that many things start working if you change the host ID to apple device is very sus. i retract.

Why would they try to make the AirPods a worse purchase? Apple is happy to let you run whatever operating system on your Mac -- they aren't actively hostile there, but they don't help the community either. Still, I would recomme

I got the InZone gaming buds version which are supposedly very similar to Sony's WF-1000XM5 ( https://electronics.sony.com/audio/gaming-audio/all-inzone-h... ) I wanted to try out the higher-end wireless Blueto

I uploaded two binary save files from a game on my Steam Deck to ChatGPT, it diffed them and spat out a script to edit various values. The bots are really good at this sort of thing.

im just pointing out (a) a ton of work has gone into this, (b) yielding many options for different use-cases, (c) without dependency on c-abi/c-header.

i view this as the strength of dynamic language like JS or Ruby rather than a weakness: look at all the busywork a language like Java would otherwise inflict on us that we’re able to avoid. it takes a single syntactic lint rule to enforce t

There have been enormous strides here. We have developed WebAssembly and WIT, with Extism as a chrome over then providing tower of babel between most programming language pairs. We have GraalVM and Truffle to unify languages under one compi

i write markdown-ish text in any text box including using backticks for command names like `cat`, or use * for *emphasis* just like i did on IRC in the 2000s. these conventions in human plain text conversation predate markdown and AI by dec

It's funny that as the most popular programming languages FINALLY got smart injection-safe SQL strings (js template literals etc), we're right back to square one with AI over the top that can't tell the difference between tru

by jitl 4mo ago
well, i guess i know what the grandparent was talking about when they said 'I myself have heard [...] "after a while you dont even see the parentheses" enough times [...]'. Thanks for the example.

memcached is about a bazillion times faster than redis at doing the simple KV cache job. it’s got threads. it’s highly optimized to do its one job super well, where redis is more a arbitrary shared Python heap kinda thing with all the data

they’re gonna struggle to meet demand at $1000 already, i don’t think they need a shitty ad version to support also. (then again i always buy the most expensive SKU they offer so im very outside the target buyer profile for such)
