Re:We should be more ambitious with the software we build

One recent performance issue that was raised by a customer was in the end a tiny svg animation loop that was on all the time even when the tab was inactive. So no game engine loops for my customers.

Controversial take: Looking at lines of code is no longer a feasible task. Also it adds very little to quality for large swathes of user facing functionality. Instead focussing that much time on building a robust test suite is a better application of developer time.

I've been using it ever since on my windows machines because I've never found anything even coming close to it. I don't need anything feature rich with a 5 second startup time. I need something that's 500ms away.

True. We do have to remember that this is only possible in the last few months. The costs to manage more and more infrastructure is steadily going down.

Remember that these systems still operate as infrastructure inside the companies.
If new weapons still operating inside any of these companies spew a million bullets on my house, they are still liable. Humans are setting these system up and they still have to behave responsibly.

Re:GLM-5.3 is now open-weight
on Friday August 28, 2026 @11:53AM (#49480394)
I have been only using GLM models since last December and have had the best experience without any drama about tokens and geopolitical restrictions. The quality has been great and I am doing more and more with the latest 5.3 and am really excited that consumer hardware will develop in the next few years where I can run these at home.

I am very excited that more makers will come up with fast memory for consumers rather than enterprise. Companies can only pre order so much RAM.
At some point there will be a surplus of fast memory and even in a crash the current generation of SLMs are bounced to be plenty to build a lot of intelligence at home.

I highly doubt 415 million people will find enough reason to purchase $100 worth of Anthropic, especially when the price of intelligence keeps going down and smaller models become more and more capable to meet the average person's needs like drafting emails, customer support, basic RAG.

They are worth (on paper) so much that there are not enough retail money to buy them anymore. All these companies can do is put Uncle Sam on the hook to print money for them. There is no other way.

I feel the same way. It's the right amount of 'gets out of my way' and 'won't nuke my machine'.
Especially the ease of using Plan mode and quickly getting stuff done.

There's a number of US providers who also run it, if that is your preference.
