Ask HN: LM Studio Bionic with Python
Trying to use Bionic and it seems to have its own micro python which doesn't have pip, or micropip, so there is no way to even install pandas. If you can't even analyze CSV files, what good is this?

"common understanding of the basic rules that everyone agrees on"
I would have thought that storming the Capitol, beating and killing police officers was Not Acceptable, but apparently I was wrong.
There are many such examples. We do not agree on the basic rules any more.

As an American, I have a stupid question here: Europeans are smart and capable. Why would they be satisfied with this kind of international dependency for something as important as banking?

Easy. Reduce our use of technology and stop consuming so much. It will require you to lower your standard of living.
Is your partner willing to do this with you? Probably not.

For a long time the number 1 song in the USA was "Choosin Texas" by Ella Langley.
I have no idea who that is and I've never heard the song.

At this point, LLM's are "good enough" for all kinds of tasks. Instead of making them more capable, now the efforts are making them smaller and cheaper.
All aboard! We're racing to the bottom now.

This is what I'm referring to - the seamless integration - "it just works".
Re:Ask HN: What happens when Claude Code goes away?
on Friday September 18, 2026 @02:06PM (#49758005)
No - Here is what I mean. When I use Claude Code locally with Ollama/Quen, it can do the work just fine - like creating a script - but it just outputs it, rather than placing it into a file. So far I can't convince it to actually WRITE to a file. With Claude Code, it just works. Recursing around the file system, it just does it. I can't get that working locally.

I hated them at first, but since I am already dependent on iCloud Keychain to manage my passwords, I just figured there is not really any additional risk. I just make sure I will always have multiple, healthy devices, which are always patched, charged, and sync'ed. And don't put them all in the same physical location at one time.
Ask HN: What happens when Claude Code goes away?
I have become very proficient with Claude Code and I use it for everything, both at work and in my personal life. At this point, if I lost access to it, it would be like missing a body part. At the risk of hyperbole, it makes me a better person. I am more effective in everything I do. Someday it will probably go away. I haven't had great success making Claude Code work with local Ollama/Quen.
