I have no idea how you block distillation. Every time you do inference, thats basically distilation.

Oh for sure. The American labs distill society.

The Chinese labs distill the American models.

Someone will etch the Chinese models into silicon and then your toaster will have depression, it's the natural cycle of things.

I mean... They just copy the US's homework, so I would hope they can run a leaner operation.

At this point I can't wait for a comedian to release a decision model backed by humans.

Re:Codex Blocks Fast Mode with an API Key on Desktop on Thursday August 13, 2026 @12:04PM (#49288039)
Imagine other people might like to know: if you use an API key to access OpenAI models in the Codex Desktop application, you can't access the faster inference.

I patched my codex application with this code, I would hope such a change could be upstreamed: https://github.com/adenta/codex-fast-mode-patcher

Love to see it. We have been experimenting with https://github.com/ronak-create/FableCut, how is this similar? How is it different?

I finally took the thirty seconds to find that famous video of the moon getting hit with a bullet, lmk if you are entertained to watch all the way through https://youtu.be/ZNAHcMMOHE8?si=GndI2PShs_vtGUT8

Now compare that to the first 20 minutes of this AI movie: https://youtu.be/digHr6k38x0?si=s2rzWD346R9qGkLs

We are still a bit of a ways away from being able to compile a script into a show. Also Veo 3.1 is old AF, it can't even do audio references! the cool kids are currently focused on Seedance 2.

This is the most recent thing I put together (sry it's on LinkedIn, haven't posted the series elsewhere yet)

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/adenta_episode-1-of-midwest-d...

I'm also unsure if screenplay to video is the desired... workflow we will eventually want.

I am biased, but am a bit kinder to AI video slop than most. Like I bet the first ever movies were pretty shit too. Give it a couple years while we figure out this new technology, and it's currently as bad as it ever will be, it can only get better.

At first usage I'm not impressed. I've probably spent a couple grand on Seedance 2 to date, and I can't find anything google omni flash does better than Seedance from running a handful of samples through the system. You can find some of the videos I've made in my HN bio link.

Trading Cards!

IMO the biggest barrier to entry to the hobby is the price, coupled with the existing communities being really old. I'm trying to get people to print their own cards for casual kitchen table play through https://cardstocktcg.com.

I wish this article would have went more in-depth on how they're setting up backups. The great thing about sequel light is lightstream makes backup and restore something you don't really have to think about

I use the desktop app. It causes excessive battery drain, but I like having it as a shortcut. Do most people use the web app?

Doesn’t the GameCube already have a network interface? Like something called phantasy star online used it for internet, and you can connect multiple GameCubes for 16 player Mario kart I believe.
