yep, all i want is freedom to make a workflow where i don't feel tied to one provider, CC is exactly what i don't wanna get trapped in. I'll happily use claude MODELS, but if it means i have to keep learning two harnesses sid

I've really been liking the car analogies for AI lately. Personally i dislike driving, i dont like cars or trucks or traffic, yet i own a car. I can protest cars and they wont go away. We could shutdown the 2 biggest automobile makers

I think you're being overly harsh. I don't match his temperament at all because my first real skillset(WoW :D) was literally looked down on by society rather than admired, so if anything the contrast was confusing to me to have a

To me it just fills like a bit more of a demand to be a generalist, or be really good at pairing with other specialists.

I take issue with a ton of youtube style articles, and this video is an example of a version of youtube video essays done like a literal essay instead. It seems very much to me like video essay format on youtube is being used as a crutch. Y

just dont fall in love with goofy memory style features and its likely gonna be fairly easy to just plug and play whatever model for a ton of use cases. I dont see a lot of love for weird memory like features on HN, but on provider subreddi

it really just seems like people pump out that its on the end-user, and i just disagree. They have a walled garden around claude code and using their models within it, it should work instantly out of the box when going from an opus 4.8 to a

Horrifying excuse, gpu constraint can be used by all of these companies to justify a shit user experience. If the user isn't properly weighed in their priorities, they have their priorities setup wrong. Their 20$ tier currently isn&#x2

The US government didn't make the choices to release the worst version of Opus and label it 5.0, and then isolate portions of their subscribers to limited usage of Fable. They may have been unfairly targeted by the US government, but t

it just doesn't interact good with human beings, and it leaves incredibly strange long winded comments within code filled with session context that will likely not be relevant later on. Also always seems to have this annoying tendency

Kinda surprised not to see their next update being an Opus 5.1, even if its minimal changes, they've already had to address it with the concise mode or whatever. So my current usage as a Pro subscriber... Not able to even consider usin

I don't wanna pretend to be some expert, but i think the contention is that they were gutted so resources are sparse for inspections, leading to higher recall numbers. I am also hesitant to really invest feelings into anything i see p

I think without a doubt that will be the case, unless the trend of compute getting better over the last 60 years suddenly stops. It should become less tough to run a local model and our devices should become more powerful. However I think t

I try to pressure people into just turning off the absolute majority of the social media / algo type recommendation stuff on youtube. I still "use" youtube, but my experience is night and day compared to the typical usage, I

I've had one conversation that was sorta like this, it was around the time some kid kept releasing videos of him interacting with a very bad TTS gpt model or something and it would give very very bad answers confidently. Their frame of

Personally, I started using openai models to mess with other harnesses. I was pretty oppositional to CC and how they don't let you kinda plug and play freely, or give transparency into -p usage with other harnesses. So i mix and match

Adam Curtis docs are wonderful. I've grown so accustomed to when people suggest a doc, its some youtuber that posts a doc once a week and utilizes the youtube documentary style to disguise how poorly executed it is. Adam Curtis is cert

different use cases for different people. some people are nurturing a code base and ensuring it doesnt become a gross mess so they become the bottleneck. some people are just trying to prompt stuff into existence and dont know what sql is.

I've found myself liking opencode for workflows because i can plug GPT models into it, so i tossed 5$ at deepseek api and just toggle back and forth what my opencode.jsonc file is running model wise for my agents. I havent tried anythi

Creatine is great regardless, just dont get sold by whatever the nonsense article is pushing if anything. Generic creatine the cheapest you can find is likely your best bet. I have the same struggles with preworkout, they are just overkill

I don't think i fear so much for competing on quality vs a vibe coder, I think two orders of magnitude is underselling the potential snowball effect of a vibe coder attempting to craft up a semi complex project. The sooner they start t

Looking forward to not being able to even try it on pro because pressing enter will eat 50% of my 5 hour window.

works the other way as well, i have my opencode.jsonc which declares what model an agent should use, and it points at .claude/agents/ those agents each have their anthropic based model instead, almost feel like this broke in the p

fairly certain you are remembering the goofy article that was going around where a railway user allowed an agent to delete his db. iirc he questioned the agent after and the agent told him it should have read the file that told him not to d
