Over the last four years, GitHub announcing a change or new feature has generally led to a worse experience, for me at least.

Last time I got one, I had to log into a Discord server and wait for "the drop" and IIRC Daniel Kim was giving them out based on who was there at the time. They were gone in less than a minute. This was ~8 months ago.

They make a giant inference chip. Their inference service is basically just advertising for their core value prop: hardware.

The CEO was on Gradient Dissent a couple years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNXebAQ6igs

I used their Coding Plan for a few months. It is genuinely difficult to keep up with the models. The output is so fast. Qwen 3.8 27B is likely one of the strongest models they've hosted so far.

Edit: it looks like this is only available on a API token pricing. Does anyone know if they have rolled out prompt caching yet? It used to get pretty expensive for agentic coding tasks with no prompt caching.

I remember in 2010 when Chrome made the web so much better for everyone. All the early adopters were singing its praise and encouraging friends and family to use it.

Now, I encourage people to use anything but Chrome. Firefox is really great these days.

This article is from 2024. They can defer this tax now. [1]

> High income with short work days, free healthcare, free daycare, free education and beyond.

If the author doesn't value these for the people around them then perhaps he should move somewhere else.

Interesting: I initially confused smol for https://github.com/huggingface/smolagents

Don’t run your responses through an LLM. People prefer to read your genuine words, even if it may include some incorrect English.

That looks like a “Deep Research” report generated by an LLM, not a summary.

Here’s the original article this one is based on: https://martinfowler.com/articles/harness-engineering.html

And here is the original author on a podcast talking about it: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4FxEdjXldNhoh67KYVmbDu

Nice work.

That is the approach I would take today. Late Interaction is worth a look. Evals are necessary.

Wash your hands? /s

I want a system that taxes things we don't want (unproductive rent-seeking) and doesn't tax things we do want (productive stuff e.g. income tax).

I don't want to be personally compensated. I just want to live in a society where people's basic needs are easily met: clothes, food, medicine, housing. The current landscape is, by the day, increasingly dystopian.

It's hard to say what their motivation is. The Chinese firms seem to be working hard to commoditize intelligence which may be the most effective way to debase American frontier labs. And yeah: it also happens to be really good for humanity.

No GH contributors. New HN account. Vibe coded in 5 commits over the last two week.

Interesting choice of model:

This is like Google Ultra for personal accounts. I signed up to see what it was like and then assumed I would be able to disable training on my data as a paid customer. The only way to disable training on paid personal accounts is to disable history (no chat logs) which makes the service much less useful for me.

For Google Workspace accounts that use the Ultra plan you can disable training while retaining history. I didn't bother signing up again. It is user-hostile.

I too was nervous until I clicked through and had a read.

It has a JSON mode that you need to enable in settings and then you can create a simple python script to interact with it or have the agent use `curl` and `jq` to interact with it.

It's at the bottom of this page: https://docs.searxng.org/admin/settings/settings_search.html

Different bubble than the one I was hoping for.

This appears to be different than the recent "Speculative Pipeline Decoding" paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.30852

Dwarkesh Patel has AI/ML guests on his podcast. BoorishBears may have been referring to the Jensen Huang episode where they discuss TPUs: https://youtu.be/Hrbq66XqtCo?t=982

> The training and deployment of LongCat-2.0 are built on large-scale clusters of tens of thousands of AI ASIC superpods. Compared to the mature Nvidia GPU ecosystem, the supporting software community is still less developed. We have therefore put significant effort into building a stable, secure, and scalable infrastructure.

This is the real news story. It looks like they may have used Huawei Ascend 910C chips: https://nitter.net/teortaxesTex/status/2071708141037781407#m

It really depends on your personal perspective on life. Consider the two statement and which one aligns more with yourself:

1. "It's better to regret something that you have done instead of something that you haven't done."

2. "I want to retire comfortably with a high level of confidence."

People in my life always advised me to follow the highest paying job. I'm not sure that was the right advice given my circumstances. It's really up to you.

This really sucks. Given how bad their regexes were in their leaked code, I am guessing this will get triggered all the time when I am fine tuning a model or doing work with datasets. The fact that there's no feedback means I can't trust the tools.

How snobbish was the CEO acting?

Just in case anyone is thinking about trying it: 25g seems pretty high. It’s worth it to review what that means for the rest of your body before starting this regime. Kidneys are really useful organs to have working.

Are you using Opus? Sonnet remains as useful as it was while Opus efficacy and token burn rate has soured over the last 4 months.

I have a suspicion most Libertarians are actually something else but who haven't realized it yet. When you really dig into it: idea of private property (as in owning land and charging people rent for using it) is akin to slavery (owning people and extracting labor from them). The pre-colonial indigenous structures of managing societies were much more aligned with my internal values but they are poorly defined in modern vernacular and we don't have a good "common vocabulary" to talk about how we might want to do things in a different way.
