That was annoying to read because there is no easy to see impact of each change. It's FL2 + Gen 13 combined.

I.e. what's the FL2 benchmark on Gen 12 compared to FL1?

"Repositioning the taskbar is one of the top asks we’ve heard from you".

Tell us why it was removed in the first place, why it takes years to put it back and it's still future promises as of March 2026. That's just a clown show.

Please post it here. I'd also like to know if 5.4 mini is better than Flash 3. Include reasoning and timing, if possible.

token/sec is meaningless without thinking level. If it's fast but keeps rambling about instead of jumping on it then it can take a very long time vs low token/sec but low/none thinking.

cli?

for example aws cli. It's a full interface to aws API. Why would you need mcp for that?

and if you have any doubts, agents use it with a great effect even without any relevant skill. "aws help" is fully discoverable.

wsreset -i should do it

"Imagine moving the taskbar" - the state of 2026 windows is pathetic.

A lot of gemini bashing. But flash 3.0 with opencode is reasonably good and reliable coder.

I'd rate it between haiku 4.5 (also pretty good for a price) and sonnet. Closer to sonnet.

Sure, if I am not cost-sensitive I'd run everything in opus 4.6 but alas.

It's for diag and lookups. It doesn't look like it's doing edits with it.

opencode is only diags, if I am not mistaken.

I guess the reason it won all those awards is the same reason I dislike it as much. It's more of a political pamphlet than a sci-fi. Definitely far from "Best SciFi Ideas".

Best way to find yourself in war is not prepare for one. As shown time and again. Also, persuading your enemies not to prepare for war is a part of the war effort.

tell that to ruzzia

quic is more layer 4 or close to tcp reimplementation. Far from http layer 7.

ussh (for udp)

how would they know? - this is (one of) the ways for people to let them know

What's the point of a private bank or do you mean investement/brokerage?

sure, let's ignore russia working on massive annexations in Ukraine

they now also compete with aws $15/year certs

yes, same reasons as running ubuntu

Yes, ACME-DNS please - https://github.com/joohoi/acme-dns

Lego supports it.

fwiw, I asked chatgpt:

  "gpt-5-chat-latest is described by OpenAI as a non-reasoning GPT-5 variant—meaning it doesn’t engage in the extended “thinking token” process at all.

  gpt-5 with reasoning_effort="minimal" still uses some internal reasoning tokens—just very few—so it’s not truly zero-reasoning.

  The difference: "minimal" is lightweight reasoning, while non-reasoning is essentially no structured chain-of-thought beyond the basic generation loop."

"Notably, GPT‑5 with minimal reasoning is a different model than the non-reasoning model in ChatGPT, and is better tuned for developers. The non-reasoning model used in ChatGPT is available as gpt-5-chat-latest."

hmm, they should call it gpt-5-chat-nonreasoning or something.

why isn't it on https://aider.chat/docs/leaderboards/?

"last updated August 07, 2025"

it sort of does support it, except it doesn't work with tmux.

Attn: Cerebras

Any attempt to deal with "<think>" in the code gets it replaced with "<tool_call>".

Both in inference.cerebras.ai chat and API.

Same model on chat.qwen.ai doesn't do it.

To put this into perspective, github copilot Business license is 300 "premium" requests a MONTH.

caddy will auto-issue/renew LE or ZeroSSL depending on availability

Monitoring the health of your site is your job.

You should have it on auto-renewal anyway.

You can grab a cert from ZeroSSL and probably some others.

You can also get 1year cert from aws for like $15 though I'd stick with auto renews.

how is it vs m4 mac mini?

how does he turn it on without a power button?

Try lzip. It's about 10 times faster than zopfli though it's not gzip compatible. And it beats zstd -19 on compression.
