Not to take the bait on this bit of content marketing ("the future of agents is OAuth, says company that sells OAuth solution"), but: I disagree with the premise that agents should basically use the same APIs and auth mechanisms t

Origami is a really elegant utility/language with a lot of interesting ideas. It still feels like a tool for a more technical audience—maybe it would be good for AI agent orchestration? The stated audience of non-developers who know HT

What's really extreme is that you need an iCloud+ subscription if you want more than 5GB of iCloud storage… so requiring the subscription for this app is not much of a hurdle

Again, this was a business deal. Xerox was allowed to purchase $1M of pre-IPO Apple stock in exchange for the visit. No one was tricked, nothing was stolen, and everyone knew what the deal was.

This is going to sound like a troll, but it's an honest question: Why do people use Ollama over llama.cpp? llama.cpp has added a ton of features, is about as user-friendly as Ollama, and is higher-performance. Is there some key differe

Absolutely. This is not a new observation, but another thing they struggle with is self-reporting confidence intervals. When I've asked LLMs to classify/tag things along with a confidence metric, the number seems random and has no

This matches my experience working with LLMs. I've built several applications that require an LLM to consider several factors or "zoom levels," and I have yet to work with a model that can do that in a single shot. Instead, y

Some people complain when the training code is not also open sourced, hence the scare quotes.

Is there another that they're not thinking of? The Concorde was a joint government project.

Counterpoint: I'm on day 26 of an afternoon project I never would have attempted on my own, and I'm going to release it as a major feature. Cursor & Claude got the boilerplate set up, which was half the mental barrier. Then

That's all cool, but this has been the cat and mouse game with "open" models for years now, right?

As someone who follows AI basically minute-to-minute, I'm a little confused about why everyone is freaking out so much about DeepSeek & R1. Normal (non-tech) people are asking me about it today. The stock market is freaking out. Wh

I like this article format. Here, let me try. In my opinion, there are three significant and distinct formats for serializing data: - JSON - .NET Binary Format for XML (NBFX) - JSON Schema JSON: The least-commonly used format is

Yeah, the author has an extremely idiosyncratic take on the definition of REST which is either based on a misunderstanding, or a fundamentalist view of "pure" REST.

Super cool! Also somewhat terrifying—the comment text on the landing page definitely raises an eyebrow: // Agent below has access to all QuickBooks, Slack, and Gmail actions

Man, so much of this still rings true today. Focusing on the niche where you're an expert; solving a single problem 10X better than the alternative; bootstrapping; focusing on profitability; the importance of focus.

Given that there is a PPD limit to human vision, I think this is useful for proving to yourself whether a given TV or monitor upgrade will actually be noticeable. I bet a lot of people will be shocked to find that they’re not seeing any ben

I think all of their criticism of the current web ecosystem is valid... And I'd rather have someone take a big swing than marginally improve the React ecosystem.

I'm definitely not saying any company can make any product, but it is striking when a company which is making a product refuses to believe the product category is going to evolve—even when they themselves are doing the original R&D

Not to mention the iPhone, which erased the iPod. He also seemed to make that move with zero regret.

Yeah, this is classic disruption. The amazing part is, I can almost guarantee that execs at Kodak read The Innovator's Dilemma, but it didn't help. Same goes for Nokia. Knowledge of the problem is apparently insufficient.

That's fascinating. It really seems that a lot of businesses end up hyper-optimized to deliver what they already offer, up until the point where anything that isn't a current offer is attacked by corporate antibodies. And that&#x2

This is spot-on, and it's a remarkably common pattern when dominant players are faced with a seismic shift—even when it comes from within. Kodak essentially invented the modern digital camera, and had a phenomenal lead going into the 9
