Interesting - at time of writing, Carbon is claimed to be #1 on AA, but AA has not updated yet.

Excited to try it, opus level benchmarks with their omniscience score and multimodality seems worth testing!

The software doesn't work on the live game - it's designed for a "private server" / fan reconstruction based around the 2004 version of the game.

Jagex almost certainly knows of lost city, but it's not really comparable to OSRS these days. People are likely to play 2004scape and then move to the live version of the game once the nostalgia wears off.

Jagex's lawyers have been absolutely decimating botting communities in the last 6 months, if they wanted Lost City gone, it would be gone already.

I wouldn't surprised to see them reach out for the valuable data he's collecting on the SDK's main server.

I think this has always been the end result - when the user can enter a business problem and it spins up a site, and they don't have to think about the hosting, database, app, etc.

Vibe coding full circle

And it will be good enough for 90% of use cases.

Thanks for your hard work, as well as the team.

Svelte / Sveltekit helped programming "click" for me , and years later I'm doing work I love for people who appreciate it.

SK is my favorite starting point for almost everything I build.

"zip it cookie"

I got in huge trouble hosting one of these when I was a kid.

I saw some call-to-arms post that got me excited for the free internet and set it up on my parents' residential service.

You can imagine the fallout. No permanent damage though.

Certainly seems intended to drive Workspace subscriptions, but I wonder how many of those users will sign up for Office instead.

I think a general understanding is still useful, you just don't need all of the details anymore.

The brain loves these kinds of shortcuts.

I don't need to think about the fine motor skills of hitting a baseball, it's just a motion now, and the game is still fun.

I think it's hilarious that this detail is enough for me to dismiss looking into the model, but here we are, and it is.

Luna saw a huge jump after the price cut and is one of the more competitive models at the new price on openrouter.

Maybe they want to see how much market they can grab with Sol?

This might help but there are already cheaper models with Sol's intelligence more or less, the most notable being Grok 4.6 at $6/m which makes it a tougher sell

Are they durable?

If I can ruin the screen with my fingernail, I'm completely uninterested.

You can use an external drive if it's mounted as a writable volume. I would make sure it's fast, maybe thunderbolt 3/4/5 enclosure with a fast drive.

Yep, I chucked it a file on my desktop: index.html present Max individual file size 25MB Total file count <2000 Total size less than 100MB

My friends can't ride horses as well as they used to, they've been using cars to get around too much.

Sure horses are more efficient, but cars are faster and more convenient, and allow you to get a lot more done.

Also cars will get better in our lifetime, horses are horses.

Cool, I also use AI as a tool.

Apple's tablets are great, but I think we're just pretty close to the limit for these entertainment devices.

I have a now 7(!) year old Tab S5e that I use to consume media, and it's 5.5mm thick, with 10 hours of battery, a 1600x2560 super AMOLED, and quad firing speakers.

Nothing on the market makes me feel I need an upgrade over what was a $400 mid range tablet, because I have an incredible media experience on all my streaming apps.

They're definitely more popular right now, but they've been a winner since M1.

Great performance, quiet, efficient.

It would be tough to get a windows machine at that price that gets anywhere close on performance, especially if you consider the cost of electricity.

Great parent/grandparent machines, home servers.

Something something selling shovels in a gold rush.

There's very good steam integration, a controller first UI, it's very performant, sleep works better, fantastic performance monitoring and settings.

I love it, but there's probably not a whole bunch of reason to run it on things in other form factors.

Agree with everything here.

Anecdote:

I purchased an EV this year, my highest priority was range per dollar, and the vehicle I selected happened to be new because of current market conditions. (Equinox EV for under 25k otd after incentives)

I agree, claude is an impressive agent but it seems like it's impatient and trying to make its own thing, tries to make its own tests when I already have them, etc. Maybe better for a new project.

GPT 5 (at least with cline) reads whatever you give it, then laser targets the required changes.

With High, as long as I actually provided enough relevant context it usually one shots the solution and sometimes even finds things I left out.

The only downside for me is it's extremely slow, but I still use it on anything nuanced.

Roller coaster tycoon is good.

The business software I have to work with from the 80s is a straight up nightmare. And I'd say most old software is in this camp.

I just switched to the iPhone with the new cycle, explicitly because of this news.

Sideloading was the killer feature for me as well.

I agree, it's like they looked at GPT 3.5 one time and said "this isn't for me"

The big 3 - Opus 4.1 GPT5 High, Gemini 2.5 Pro

Are astonishing in their capabilities, it's just a matter of providing the right context and instructions.

Basically, "you're holding it wrong"

I don't know, it's nice to have icons and buttons that actually look like what they're going to do instead of amorphous blobs.

I read the article linked above with all of the testing they did to identify the cause, I'd definitely have no trouble buying from them in the future.

Reminiscent of the tylenol case study, handled a tough situation correctly and it's still on the shelf.

Sure it can, easiest way is to get ollama, then `ollama run gemma3n` You can pair it with tools like simonw's LLM to pipe stuff to it.

The author implies they're a highschool aged programmer. They're likely along for the ride with their parents and very online. I'd probably do the same thing at their age.

I think they are fairly interchangeable, In Roo Code, Claude uses the tools better, but I prefer gemini's coding style and brevity (except for comments, it loves to write comments) Sometimes I mix and match if one fails or pursues a path I don't like.

That's a car payment...
