Code is hidden so far. He ships only binaries. The autoffi thing is nothing new, I did that with cperl a decade ago. Added native types also, which he doesnt have yet.

Heavily disagree. Good UI, lot of innovation, no bugs for me. Very pleasant to use. And totally free.

That's why I have a dumb car, but added a tablet with maps and can bus connection (OBD-II) via bluetooth. All in my control. The OBD-II adapter is not visible. Did cost my about 50€.

I found it the 2nd best movie of the year, right behind House of Dynamite. Brazil has so much to catch up compared to Argentina, which jailed most of the generals. This one tries it differently, not directing the blame directly, but one bys

Because Claude is so much more expensive, and I rarely need the best. gpt-5.4 is really good now also for tricky problems. Just for the unsolvable problems we take opus-4.6. Or if someone pays for it.

Because the python devs weren't allowed to optimize on types. They are only hints, not contracts. If they become contracts, it will get 5-10x faster. But `const` would be more important than core types.

Hopefully better than gpt-oss-120b because this sucks big time. Completely unusable. gpt-5.3 and 4 are very fine though. Testing it tomorrow

Since I worked as an architect some comments. Architecture is fine for big, complex projects. Having everything planned out before keeps cost down, and ensures customer will not come with late changes. But if cost are expected to be low, an

I'm 62 years old, and LLM coding agents had ignited my passion again. I'll soon unarchive older projects which were too hard to continue. With Opus this will be finally doable. Adding a jit to perl, inlining, ssa, fixing raku,...

No, not yet. Up to a single H100 there is no single local model, which doesn't make your code worse. (excluding trivial stuff like ruby, python, typescript). Implement features, fix bugs. Right now we started experimenting with 2 H100&

Cannes is free to attend for film professionals. Always was. You only have to find a hotel. At Sundance you could stay in Salt Lake City or Heber City and have fun. Free busses. Oscars are not about the arts, nor about quality. Never was.

I found opencode to ask less stupid "security" questions, than code and cortex. I use a lot of opencode lately, because I'm trying out local models. It has also has this nice seperation of Plan and Build, switching perms by

Some US government agencies raged their wars against socialist countries for ever, usually by the CIA on hidden budgets. And never declared a war. Or even told the president what they did. There was never oversight, and never a United Natio

No. If you cannot keep docs in sync, let the agent keep it in sync. Better keep the docs in the repo, not in a wiki or elsewhere

uv does not fix the need for venv's or docker containers. normal people update their libs with the hope to get problems fixed. python people don't update their libs, because then everything will break right and left. so they keep

You really need free claude or gpt subscriptions for this maintainance updates. They published OSS support recently. Ask them. Though they use an inflated star ranking system, which doesn't reflect reality.

No, only to python. And partially ruby and ocaml. Not to typescript, perl or PHP.

Of course tests are not proofs. For proofs I do 'make verify' :) Tests just catch the most simple mistakes, edge cases and some regressions.

Doing tickets and commenting cost and quality in the PR. Still, the best are outstanding, and the medium ones bare usable. I rank it by IQ. From 140 to utterly stupid. opencode/gpt-oss-120b local got a 90. opencode/opus-4.6 gets 1

You never close emacs. You never open a new emacs. You tell emacsclient which file to load and to which line to jump to. For me that's `e file.ext:200` expanding to a emacsclient call.

PHP did better than python and perl. Python is doomed. PHP got a good jit already, a good OO lately, good frameworks, stable extensions. It has a company behind. Unlike python or ruby which break right and left all the time on updates. you

This is TDD? Tests first, then code? I do first the docs, then the tests, then the code. For years. What he describes is like that. Just that the plan step is suggesting docs, not writing actual docs.
