Besides the phone CPU, they’re using less apple custom silicon: MediaTek wifi/bluetooth, no cellular modem, generic 1080p camera.

I guess it’s to be expected, but i’m sad there’s no 16gb RAM upgrade option. $699 for a brand new Mac is nice and 8gb will work for the netbook/student audience but i’d personally want a teensy bit more.

unfortunately asahi linux bare metal cuts batty life by 40% or so and doesn’t support external displays via USB-C. worse battery seems a very common theme for linux-on-laptop.

i agree on the whole that query is a good second line of defense versus the primary strategy. however you can do query based strategy and still use a diff/patch approach for some queries, just make the previous state of a query one of

A good toolkit for Ink is much needed, although Ink itself leaves something to be desired, especially compared to https://github.com/anomalyco/opentui (bun only, used by opencode) I tried to build a Viewport component

not for every user or use case. when developing of course i run claude —-do-whatever-u-want; but in a production system or a shared agent use case, im giving the agent least privilege necessary. being able to spawn POSIX processes is not ne

on the other hand, MCP/tools style lets me run specialized agents without needing to give them a bash-like unix environment. Vercel makes a fake bash simulator but if i’m trying to run an agent that analyzes production telemetry, it’s

but instead of trying to solve that, this api is just like “too hard no one uses it let’s forget about it”. right now when i need to wrangle bytes, i switch languages to Golang. it’s easy gc language, and all its IO is built around BYOB api

i think for obj-c specifically (can’t speak to other langs) i’ve had a great experience. it does make little mistakes but ai oriented approach makes it faster/easier to find areas of interest to analyze or experiment with. obj-c sendms

i don’t agree. most apps i use are not AI clone-able yet with AI’s current faculties. i’m not going to switch to an ai vibe code of Google Photos, Tailscale/Mulvadd VPN, or YouTube. For those three apps, i pay for cloud infrastructure.

well the lua setup has enough type checker going on that’s it’s really useful, besides language familiarity i honestly don’t miss much; there’s great docs and autocomplete for the lua stuff built in to the lazynvim distro.
