For some reason, AI has convinced people that closed-source software is the way forward. It's not. Security through obscurity isn't security. Anyone claiming otherwise is too dumb to understand the problem and thus must not propose solutions. Speak less, listen more.
Tokenmaxxxing: seeing a stairwell notice about hedge trimming and teaching @_HermesAgent to turn it into an OCR → sabre/vobject → iCalendar → iTIP-over-email pipeline, instead of just adding the damn event to your calendar manually.
@thsottiaux Sync with the super app on our phones and reset limits itself. 😇
@ajambrosino 👀 Ehm, can we get in on the Testflight?
In the next months I'll provide you with a Hacker News replacement that I'll run myself and I'll guarantee personally: no benefit for whatsoever individual, a team of 10/20 persons since the start, from different time zones, clear rules, total transparency, and a "karma" system. I really want to fix HN and provide something that is not bound to a specific company.
@gajesh I‘d like to give this a try! 🙋🏻♂️
@Dimillian Move connections feature from beta to main app. Option to automatically keep cli updated from app. Synced state between cli and app. Adhoc sessions outside of a project. iOS app.
There is hope that all of those Twitter bookmarks that we never look at again after bookmarking might be useful at some point.
LLM Knowledge Bases Something I'm finding very useful recently: using LLMs to build personal knowledge bases for various topics of research interest. In this way, a large fraction of my recent token throughput is going less into manipulating code, and more into manipulating
tldr; if you used @vltpkg as your package manager, then you were protected the minute @SocketSecurity flagged the malicious packages in the `axios` attack yesterday. The best time to switch your package manager was 48hrs ago, the next best time is right now. More below: blog.vlt.sh/blog/vlt-build
🧨 Axios only needed to be resolved somewhere in your dependency graph to affect you. Semver + transitive deps + runtime installs = hidden blast radius. If you only checked your project’s lockfile, you may still not know. socket.dev/blog/hidden-bl… #nodejs
@millerman Took the test. Guess I have to renounce my citizenship now.

Dear Santa, I need a basement, a 19 inch rack and enough of these to stack from floor to ceiling.
Apple Xserve is back !?!?! Apple Xserve 2024 ? ? ? 😱😱A3174😱😱 Looks like 4-way Apple M2 Ultra chips. It even has 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD on the BMC. I think the BMC controller might be an Apple M1/M2 CPU? --- 🤔Are they still using the MacOS Server OS???🤔
seems obvious but: things that are changing rapidly: 1. context windows 2. intelligence / ability to reason within context 3. performance on any given benchmark 4. cost per token things that are not changing much: 1. humans 2. human behavior, preferences, affinities 3. tools, integrations, infrastructure 4. single core cpu performance therefore, ngmi: 1. "i found this method to cut 15% context" 2. "our method improves retrieval performance 10% by using hybrid search" 3. "our finetuned model is cheaper than opus at this benchmark" 4. "our harness does this better because we invented this multi agent system" 5. "we're building a memory system" 6. "context graphs" 7. "we trained an in house specialized rl model to improve task performance in X benchmark at Y% cost reduction" wagmi: 1. product/ui 3. customer acquisition 4. integrations 5. fast linting, ci, skills, feedback for agents 6. background agent infra to parallelize more work 7. speed up your agent verification loops 8. training your users, connecting to their systems and working with their data, meeting them where they are
I got a 1T-parameter model running locally on my MacBook Pro. LLM: Kimi K2.5 1,026,408,232,448 params (~1.026T) Hardware: M2 Max MacBook Pro (2023) w/ 96GB unified memory Running on MLX with a flash-style SSD streaming path + local patching. This is an experimental setup and I haven’t optimized speed yet, but it’s stable enough that I’ve started testing it in an autoresearch-style loop. #LocalAI #MLX #MoE
@robinebers Any best practices yet on vm setup? or spinning up vms per project? Didn’t see any docs yet.
