They have usage data and I'm sure they did the math. A few users will max this, but most won't touch it or only do a few requests a month. If it bumps their conversion rate it should be worth it. I hope!

Oh for perf reasons you’ll want it all in vram or unified memory. This isn’t a great local model for 99% of people. I’m more interested in playing around with quality given the fairly unique “breadth” play. And servers running this should b

At 109b params you’ll need a ton of memory. We’ll have to wait for evals of the quants to know how much.

Yes. But is that the line? Crawling makes sense (automated traffic) but this isn’t automated, it’s user initiated. Search indexing makes sense (this isn’t that). Training makes sense (this isn’t that). It should have a honest user agent so

Do you think that should be an option? I totally get opting out of crawlers, search or training but this is different. But should the author be able to opt out of a tool used for manually initiated queries? I can’t say “don’t use grep” on m

It’s one of my favourite MCP use cases. I have cloned projects and used the file browser MCP for this, but this looks great. It allows you to ask questions about how an entire system works. For example the other day “this GitHub action requ

Agreed if you are building a typical service. The abstractions will slow you down and don’t and anything. The use case where they are helpful is “bring your own keys” apps. I maintain https://github.com/kiln-ai/kiln wh

Potentially dumb question: if YouTube.js works in browser - can/has someone made a YouTube player that’s just a static page? Is there a need for a backend?

What do folks consider helpful in .curorrules? So far I've found: - Specify the target language/library versions, so it doesn't use features that aren't backwards compatible - Tell it important dependencies and versions

Do that. Also: set up a widget on your home screen that shows a bunch of random old photos. You won’t “find them”, you want them to find you. There will be misses but the hits will be worth it. Apple’s is decent (disclaimer: I made it). I l

Exactly. Benchmarks != evals. Task specific evals are how you determine if an AI system works. Expanding your evals as you test, find new issues, and change techniques is the only way to ensure each change doesn’t regress a bunch of your pa
