It is playing nice to criticize things. It's not just "different priorities", passkeys have intentional trade offs which cause them to be "more secure" but in ways that users do not want because it negatively affect

You don't need tanks to store the brine, just a huge pit/pool. If you look at satellite imagery, that giant pit with brine in it is exactly what they have next to the storage facilities.

It's quite true. Years ago, after `git switch` was released, I wanted to try to switch from `git checkout` to `git switch`. Ultimately I had to set up some bash nastiness to error and "scold" me when I typed `git checkout` fr

You should add "exploding head syndrome" which sounds crazy but is mostly "phantom loud noise especially as you're falling asleep"

Everyone being liars means you and I are both liars, same as the politicians. But the politicians have the power and if we remove two party consent then they get to surreptitiously record you and leverage that power. It doesnt even the powe

My nvim LSP config is 20 lines and mostly consists of "if you see X language, use Y program as LSP". I also have been using the same LSP config for approximately 7 years. I don't get the pain.

It is fun, but in a miserable (hot, dusty, muddy) kind of way. You hear a lot about such rich/out of touch folks, but with 60 thousand people there, they can't all be do-nothing rich people. Someone has to set up all the art and v

If you want it to both host the inference AND host the harness, then yes, you should firewall one from the other in some way, e.g. with VMs.

Note that the artist is technically using Strudel in their videos, not Tidal Cycles; Strudel is effectively a re-build of Tidal Cycles in JS so it runs in browser and doesn't require installation. https://strudel.cc/

The term for this that I heard is: > Advertising as inference not influence. People buying ads want to influence customers, but the platforms can instead focus on finding the folks who are already going to buy the product and show them t

Not particularly because: the LLMs can code, but holy hell can they not operate or plan appropriately for ACTUALLY high stakes operational situations. When you absolutely cannot cause downtime, if you hand Fable/Sol/Kimi the rei

I can get 128k context on a 5070ti with 16 GB of VRAM (using the Unsloth 2-bit quant[0]). This is via a .bat file on Windows 11. I'm getting about 50-60 tokens/second and the quality is much higher than Qwen 3.6 27B. I'm usin

Yes, you e always been able to do this, as long as you get an actual contract that's enforceable. The thing about most sites is they're public and you don't need to sign a real contract to use them. Can't have it both wa

Yep, I have a 15 year old LED lightbulb that's a "60 watt equivalent" and it works great. It was one of the first LED bulbs I bought, and I only bought one because I remember it costing individually about $25, maybe more. It&

The point is to not give every user (especially the LLM user) sudo access.

By my eye it's not that different, it's riffing in it from a Lisp perspective. It's pretty amazing to write your own agent BTW. I've got a zero-dependency all-in-one-file agent harness I wrote myself. I use it all the ti

Yes, it's a "cloud provider" but it's a cloud provider running an open model you can download (and that other cloud providers do host). I just happen to not have a computer big enough to host it. As for the Orchestrator,

Have you been using those models? I've been using a hand-rolled orchestrator with Mimo v2.5 (I seem to be paying $0.017 per million/tokens after their heavy caching) and it's been very impressive. I started with it in Opencod

No, and that's the point of the article. What you are calling parallel w/r/t IO should be called concurrency (conceptually happening at the same time by virtue of being able to interrupt and resume units of work). The reason

As I understood it, the "randomness" affecting what is selected at any temperature still comes from a PRNG or CSPRNG (or whatever RNG you want, maybe a hardware one), and if you where to swap out that with something deterministic

I asked the DBOS folks about this before; the idea is that there is no "coordination node", only the workers and the DB. See DBOS folks previously: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45186494

Your solution "appears" to solve the problem, but without any information about how exactly that solution works, it's just magic an vibes. Does the harness parse the contents of CLAUDE.md, see the @AGENTS.md and then inject t
