It just happened 2 months ago when xAI open-sourced Grok Build following a similar controversy (wholesale uploading of user repositories). Though ZCode's case here is way worse since there is literally no way to opt-out and the client

Words on the street are saying that this is actually a model router ("union") and not a single model, which explains the highly inconsistent behavior across sessions. One of the underlying models is from the GLM family. Allegedly,

Update: After some backlash, Google has clarified that they will only ban your "Antigravity and/or Gemini CLI accounts," not your Google account. How very generous! Keep being tone-deaf then... https://x.com/e

Obviously you can ask the agent to use a specific tool, but the point of this article is about what they choose when the human on the other end has no opinion/taste/clue.

No, and Google actively bans people for using their subscription from other harnesses via various proxies/gateways. To preempt certain replies, yes, I know you can pay API prices and use whatever harness you want.

Being "professionally hosted" is not enough: You need a "cluefully developed" distributed git backend to be a GitHub competitor. Codeberg is already buckling despite being nowhere near GitHub's scale. When Codefloe

> sub-agents will decrypt (by hitting a backend) to do their work Your local harness never decrypts the prompt, and only the OpenAI backend does. Your harness still sees tool calls in the transcript so it can act, but you lose (some) vis

> bypassing OS kernel > reading a raw device node (e.g. /dev/rdisk*) That's... not bypassing the kernel. Time to integrate SPDK so it actually bypasses the kernel :) https://spdk.io

You would be surprised how adept SOTA models are at reverse engineering with IDA/Ghidra or even plain old objdump. Opus basically knows IDAPython on the back of its hand.

For Linux desktop users. A bit of tongue-in-cheek but that's pretty much the argument that I've heard in some circles ("it works for us and not going away anytime soon - why waste time convincing others?").

Instead of Keycloak, I would recommend giving Kanidm a try: It's much more lightweight and covers most of what you usually need (one notable exception being SAML). https://github.com/kanidm/kanidm

None of which reflect well on the author. The "We're very proud of you." is exceedingly condescending.

Buyers beware: 4-core A53 is genuinely unusable (original Pinebook/PinePhone specs), A55 is better but I still wouldn’t recommend buying. You may expect performance similar to 15+ years old desktops.

Without a proper proxy setup, access to GitHub is often painfully slow from mainline China. But the choice of Baidu Pan is indeed questionable: You need a Chinese phone number in order to sign up, which is out of reach for many expats livin

IIRC macOS upgrades will automatically store a FileVault token (basically `fdesetup authrestart`) before restarting, so the disk is automatically unlocked. It's not a Tahoe-specific thing.

To be frank, the whole post reads like "I hate change" with no convincing argument otherwise. The author even acknowledges the very lenient ramp-up from CAB _and_ the myriad of available tooling, yet still throws his hands up. &gt

From git's perspective, jj bookmarks are just regular git branches, so you can just do `jj git push` and open a PR as usual. However, unlike git, jj bookmarks are pinned to change IDs instead of immutable commit SHA-1s. This means that

Only the invoked app knows whether it needs the focus in the first place. Maybe the link you clicked is supposed to initiate some background processing that does not demand your focus at all.

One issue that comes with leaving GitHub is a higher barrier to contributing. The author appears to see this as a nice filter, but it may not make sense for you. With a self-hosted forge, a new contributor will need to: a) Sign up for an ac

Judging from the comments here, it should be called "the book of nft" for comedic effect :)
