The push back on AI models has been so strange to me, and makes me wonder if my experience with development is completely divorced from some of you. I didn't work in software companies, I worked in companies that needed…
That seems like the least charitable reading of what I wrote. "system they're working on" refers to the actual physical hardware. Yes, I look at the code regularly, and a significant portion is hand written, especially…
That was my experience in the Opus 4.5 - 4.7 era, but recently it's been on the nose with what I want it to carry over, or close enough that a full handoff would be more expensive than just letting it find what it needs…
Can I ask why? The modern models deal with compaction remarkably well, to the point where I dropped my autocompact from 1M to 350k. I've seen no change in efficacy and a reduced usage rate.
I've been working on a game server in rust, and every once in a while a review will just stop and refuse to explain what happened. So I know there's a security issue in there somewhere, but neither OAI nor Ant models…
A lot of the work is carried over model to model, so I think the most comparable product is a live service game. Always have to be building on the last thing, and if you stop you'll essentially lose the entirety of the…
Can anyone give me the compelling reason for Terra and Sonnet to exist? Virtually every task I give to either is better served by going up a tier and down a reasoning level, or down a tier and up a reasoning level. I…
That's wild to say when comparing to the OpenAI family of models. I've never seen so many tests that validate tests that validate tests.
Not OP, but it launched in June 2022, so less life than I'd like to see from a Thinkpad regardless of how you slice it.
The early image models had a sort of urban legend briefly developing around them about this mishappen, horrifying woman that would appear if you just let the models recursively recreate the same image over and over.…
The videogame industry, in a nutshell.
Is it low quality in the "It didn't match the meaning that was conveyed" sense, or in the "It didn't capture the exact words used" sense? My reaction to seeing the project was that being an embedding model it'd be…
My experience has been that most people don't even understand what computers were capable of before LLMs; I work in a chemical company, and I can count on one hand the number of people who knew SAP has GUI automation…
Yes, but they're still going to encounter those moments, just at different points. The same way we never stopped encountering "Wait, what the hell?" moments when we had the internet and could search for problems instead…
It's far more likely they start to restrict the usage of subscriptions in corporate settings and leave the individual subscriptions to inflate the margin against them away. The individual subscriptions are the hook;…
For simple tasks that require a lot of input tokens (e.g, "Figure out the full path this function calls through and give me a map", or "Summarize these 5 PDFs and give me the main ideas I should explore") you can fire…

Key issue driving any conversation about desktop environments; so many people have vastly different workflows and expectations for their computer. Personally, I keep my desktop absolutely sterile, usually some geometric…
Realistically, it's never going to be Pi, for the same reason that video game consoles are always more performant than PCs for a given hardware spec. There's no canonical Pi harness, it's too variable. There might be a…
The irony is, this would be a pretty trivial one shot project for a modern LLM to create that interfaces with the source control repository of your choice. It's basically an advanced note-taking app, which LLMs have…
I think this is where Deepseek has nailed the mark; DS4.1 Flash is really, really fast, and really, really cheap. If you give it small, structured goals, it completes them crazy quick, at negligible cost. There's…
Adjacent, I work in a lab so we have dozens of ovens and freezers running constantly, so I'm intimately familiar with the constant hum, even though my office is a couple of doors away from the oven room. We had a full…
This is really the only reason I have a MacOS system around. The M4 Air feels like what I imagined a laptop could be 15 years ago. No fans to block, can grab it and carry it around almost like a tablet, works great as a…
That model simplifies thought into a painfully linear process, and overestimates the creativity people put into the "small decisions" that push a project forward. Most decisions are arbitrary and need to be reconsidered…
I'm convinced this "signal" has already been hijacked. Maybe a Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, but I've noticed more and more egregious spelling errors that make little sense from a human perspective. Hop into whatever…
