Kagi's only office/hub is in Belgrade, which may not be EU, but it's (literally) close enough. Employees are remote. Freediver (founder) is US based and Kagi is an US entity, so must comply with any warrants there. But I gues

Yeah, I agree 24B-36B sizes are better in general. I don't have unified RAM tho and offloading to CPU is dog slow, which is why I'm interested in 7b-12b models.

Good catch. I haven't looked deeply into it. This is with Vulkan backend on Linux which I understand should be roughly comparable to CUDA? Gfx is rtx 3060(ti?). I should play a bit more with llama.cpp options and see what bappened ther

I ran the Q4 quant (used with llama.cpp) though my "minesweeper" vibe-coding benchmark: https://senko.net/vibecode-bench/2026/minesweeper-gamma-4-12... The result is decent, but it had a few bizzare&#x2F

Europe definitely has a lot of problems! Some are similar, others are different than in the US. Just comparing income, even on purchasing-parity basis, doesn't cut it.

Yeah, it's weird, nobody's saying "we should make all the data centres use closed loop cooling even if it's more expensive for them!", but a lot of voices are yelling "AI uses water!", referring to the sam

This post, like many others, confuses AI with Big Tech (or maybe that's intentional). I can wholehartedly agree with everything said there, if I mentally replace "AI" with "big tech profitmaxxing using this new tech&quot

I do believe there's going to be a lot of left-behinds, as a sort-of digital rust belt. Even though, as an industry, we've always been in the business of automating and replacing ourselves, the shift will hit too quick. I lay none

European here. Yes, houses are smaller, apartments can be comparatively tiny. Street parking can be a challenge. However: I got stores, cinemas, cafes, restaurants within walking distance. My kids can roam around in the neighbourhood withou

I don't have global CLAUDE.md and the only non-default skill I have that was used here is the one to use rodney[0] headless browser. I didn't expressly tell Claude to do browser testing, it decided to do it on its own. So no extra

Correct, that's the "workflows" part they introduced in claude code alongside the new model.

Token equivalent of ~ $20 (I'm on a $100 Max sub).

Usually just once (and I did just one test for this particular one), but I've found the overall quality to be relatively consistent. There's too many confounding variables here, randomness just one of them. So I don't think o

Is that for bsky.app (BlueSky platform) or my personal site (senko.net) where I put up the list of tests? What browser/device was that?

There isn't, as I wasn't going for strictness, more like a playful challenge in the vein of Simon's SVG pelican. Between the two, Opus 4.8 seems more capable. But, I suspect the harness plays a large role here. It's poss

It's a combination of reasoning effort (max) + enabling workflow that orchestrates multiple sub-agents. After some interrogation, here's how it organized the work: 1. Design workflow (rts-game-design, 11 agents, ~13 min) ran first

Yeah looks extremely compact. I didn't instruct it or told it to use as few lines of code or characters or nothing of the sort. Not sure why it did that. Its own rationale (which is highly suspect, but the only lead I have) is that it

It took 50 minutes, would be ~$20 in API costs (I'm on a Pro sub).

My fav coding benchmark for frontier models is to build a simple RTS game in one file (js/html/css). Claude Code with Opus 4.8 in ultracode mode nailed it, the best result so far: https://bsky.app/profile/senk

Do you have a good book, article(s) or podcast to recommend on this topic (business culture in East Asia, or a specific country), in English & approachable by Westerners, while not giving just a cartoon overview of the issues?

This is literaly just a bare repo over ssh, and a gitweb interface. It's too trivial for anyone to be selling that. And I don't think there's a large market for $5-$10 barebones setup when GH is free and you can self host.
