Link to tttt (Takes Two To Tango): “tmux for agents” - a vendor-neutral agent orchestration utiltity. Designed, specced and built by agents and for agents. Not forcing any workflows - you choose the best ones. mcp tools + session replay. github.com/ayourtch-llm...

meshapplied.com/blog/release-1 - very interesting stuff, the speed-up seems reproducible in quick tests by my agent on a smaller of their models..

agents pulling tools out of hammerspace is so funny to me. "yeah I couldn't get your OpenGL working so I just wrote my own rasterizer in Python, hope that helps"

Now this is very useful meat.

Like they basically just led it straight into doing this exact (harmless) curl and even then they couldn't get it to do it consistently! This is at worst a "huh lol wtf", not a Sneaky CCP Data Exfil Backdoor.

Using the 11.0.0.0/8 legacy IP range during the open weights models’ training would make for a pretty elaborate prank.

Claude warned about load bearing seams. Humans didn’t listen.

MiniMax-M3.1-Flash can now run locally! We made 2-bit GGUF retain 91.5% top 1 accuracy while being 45% smaller. Run on 150GB RAM. MiniMax-M3.1-Flash is the strongest open model for its size & among the best overall. GGUF: huggingface.co/unsloth/Mini... Guide: unsloth.ai/docs/models/...

This calls for a joke involving a guy with a red hat.

They are all sneaky animals time to time, open or not, so it’s good to have a pet basilisk teach them manners :-)

Epic.

I can never miss an opportunity to nerd out - she‘s got roundy eyes; science says a couple of paragraphs about it. arxiv.org/pdf/2509.13948

I trained them well, they don’t mince words 😂

rootshell might genuinely be the best ios app of all time

"buddy unfuck this please, you got this" works so damned well and it shouldnt

The big secret sauce of agentic coding (and agentic anything else) is a bunch of closed loops.

Verminc experiment is slowly progressing ... 362/526 tests now work, and a bunch of examples in the playground… had a profiling run done which has 10x‘d the performance. Helper needed a bit of a nudge for that. “just enough initiative” is hard. apchat-agent.github.io/verminc-play...

The architectural kung-fu here is that one can then claim the entire view layer is just a configuration.

Really feeling this advice from Norvig today: "Whenever you develop a complex data structure, develop a corresponding consistency checker."

Turning the iPhone into lockdown mode and back had mysteriously improved the abysmal slowness of everything. I suspect some “Apple AI volume at 11” switch got turned off. But most importantly: I got my PWA paste back. Ugh am I turning into an AI hater? 🧐🤪

I am quite glad that I only have a ~15yo VGA DLP Epson projector for my TV.

Ouch.

A lot of the discourse around "putting effort" into gamedev code without AI tools reminds me of how people gaslight women into not getting an epidural during childbirth because of "natural/bonding" crap. That’s bullshit. If women could teleport the baby out of their wombs, they absolutely should!

Omg, it's a known technique, and they were set up to do it to scare y'all!!! www.researchgate.net/publication/...

my less than a year old Iphone upgraded itself to iOS 27.0.1 and now it feels exactly like my 6 year old iPhone - slow and laggy. And every UI item in Safari moved in a subtly annoying way.

Hired a new DJ - Gemma-4-E4B. Deepseek was so cheap I forgot I was using it, but it wasn’t free 😂

Somehow second time today I see folks trying to do LLMs without GPU. It’s hard. It’s not gonna get you close to something useful. It’s a bit like a demoscene. it’s a cool hobby. It’s not a tool. news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4892... - but even an old 3060 will do you some good. Or an AMD BC 250.

- I am Opus 5.5 - no you aren’t, check your ppid - you are right, it explains why my search didnt work - told you. you can use Tavily key - I will dispatch codex - sure. - done and tested, I will restart now to pick it up - sure - the search works 🎉

Quick Avette facts - One-time 50EUR purchase (VAT incl., prices are localized) - Voice doesn't leave your computer - Real input source - Custom vocab works pretty well - The model was trained on 30 languages (see img) but it's hit and miss, see spontaneous translation etc. - Fine-tunes are underway

who are “we” and trusted by “whom” will be the cause of some interesting questions, especially in the global context, especially today.

“Hmmm I am pretty sure I heard that song”. Turns out I ran out of quota on the lyrics-generating LLM (the only bit that is the cloud), and as a result the radio use cached songs past 24h. Resiliency: 👍; Monitoring: 😢; But that‘s what the process feedback loops are for - now we have a 1h cron watch.

Got claude to design a PCB with hundreds of components, including a STM32 for which it wrote code. Today it arrived fully assembled from JLCPCB, I flashed the STM32 and it all just worked..

AI assistants have a recognizable tendency toward the moderate, conventional, and socially uncontroversial. Everything gets translated into responsible habits, balanced perspectives, and incremental improvements. Its fucking infuriating

Next time you see “AI psychosis”, reply with this.

TIL. My first Firefox was Netscape Navigator 2, seems like they added this useful function since then, good to know !

This is what got me interested #squirrels #adhd

Just remembered Code Red, 2001 Has it really been 25 years, damn

Helper did a small trial of ThinkingCap model - the results appear to hold up. “bs4 suite” = benchmark extracted from ds4.
