Isn’t the solution high-quality identity verification? There are piles of digital identity companies out there. They make money selling to banks for KYC compliance. Heck, there are background check as a service companies designed to add tru

Loads super fast and scrolls easy. On mobile, my one complaint is that the menu items (top bar, footer) are quite small.

Genuinely poor performers are so toxic. They might not recognize their poor performance and suck up infinite amounts of support for no improvement. They might be ultra-aware of their game and manipulate the institution in mind-boggling ways

Yeah I’m planning a similar transition for my personal infrastructure. Railway is super easy to get started with, dashboard and logs features are nice, but I’ve just lost confidence in it.

Interesting approach. > Prioritize recall over precision. Have you tried stemming your regex? That would help you catch messages where a different form of your word appeared. For example instead of “story” you look for “stor” which catch

Cool, but it looks like it doesn’t actually test anything on your machine? It does hardware detection and then some lookups. Maybe I missed it but I really want a tool like this to actually run a model on my machine to get the speed numbers

That’s the “firming up” bit. You have a contract that deems the code “work for hire” even though the money flow is wonky. Legally the guy is like any 1099.

Yeah that’s a better link for the overall situation. Personally I’m betting on Zensical.

I think it’s more like project-wide code style rules or build instructions.

I’m kinda terrified by the security implications of the Prompt API. This is a way for web services to make your computer complete large amounts of compute at their behest. Tokens have value. There will be incentive for bad actors to use you

Yeah I looked into the Apple Foundation models and was surprised at their limited scope. On reflection it made sense though. They’re giving you the small part of the LLM capability surface that (1) can run with good performance on all their

Maybe something like https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki is worth another look. Although Forgejo is probably an easier switch from GitHub. If their federation ideas play out well, that c

Railway also doesn't let you download the "backups" out of their platform. You can restore the backup to that instance of that service and basically nowhere else.

Yes. I think you can get agents to “Conscious competence” with a lot of well-designed oversight, direction and control. It works, but it’s fragile - nothing like the judgement needed to handle novel situations well. https://en.wi

Neat service. Website doesn't provide enough information for me to trust any workloads to it. Not clear where the underlying infrastructure is, what security guarantees I get, etc.

Rapid MLX team has done some interesting benchmarking that suggests Qwopus 27B is pretty solid. Their tool includes benchmarking features so you can evaluate your own setup. They have a metric called Model-Harness Index: MHI = 0.50 × ToolCa

I haven’t tried it yet, but Rapid MLX has a neat feature for automatic model switching. It runs a local model using Apple’s MLX framework, then “falls forward” to the cloud dynamically based on usage patterns: > Smart Cloud Routing >

Agree that treating each major tab within a terminal emulator / browser/ etc as a nearly-first-class window would be helpful. Windows actually does this pretty well.
