disiplus··on Codex in ChatGPT desktop app for Linux is now in preview
You don't care what were you trying to build but for a quick me alone Linux app I used Flutter. Honestly it's my go-to when I want to have a quick native app on any platform but dont want to bundle electron.
disiplus··on France to ban unsolicited telemarketing calls
It's not that they don't care, it's just that the protocol behind it was never designed for it.

Compared for example to email where when you want to send email to somebody, you discover its MX settings on the DNS level and then send it directly and the receiver can verify are you allowed to send those emails. With phone calls it's basically a network of interconnects so I'm sending the call directly to my provider but that provider to reach the destination has multiple steps and they have to trust each other with the numbers signalling. Compare it to a regular snail mail where everybody can write anything as a sender.

What most of the providers are switching to now is for enduser the case is if the phone number that you want to signal is not registered with us, you are not allowed to signal it. Which is fine and covers most of the cases but imagine that you are a business and have multiple providers And you have boughta number block with one provider and another one is offering you better minute price for outgoing calls. Or you want to have a forwarding to your cell phone number. Or you want to signal your number when you're calling prospects from CRM. The regulation usuall differs from country to country, but most allow you to signal any number that you own with any provider that you use. And this is correct, but the problem is verification.

They all are pretty similar. And if it was copying anything, I would say more inspiration from claude desktop then codex. The Zcode is more like codex.

disiplus··on Annoying and alarming things about OpenCode
I found this part funny.

> People familiar with OpenCode internals (if you are on the OpenCode dev team I assume this doesn’t include you) might have objected to my python3 example above.

disiplus··on Annoying and alarming things about OpenCode
Cache Misses are pretty bad, i have a locally running deepseek v4 flash, i have tuned it now to have 1100-1300 prefill. Its not great but properly useable. Imagine having a session with already 100k and half of it has to be prefilled it would be waiting minutes with worse numbers. And if you are paying by the token, for hosted models, you are wasting money.
disiplus··on I think Anthropic and OpenAI have found product-market fit
Which model are you running ?
disiplus··on The solution might be cancelling my AI subscription
Diagnosed with ADHD, ultimately does not change anything for me even through i had the same idea as you. Reason is that i can now start even more stuff in parallel. And some part of them get finished more before i can just prompt more when in focus, but instead of finishing i add more features.
disiplus··on I think Anthropic and OpenAI have found product-market fit
same, but you need more then 100k of hw to run something like kimi k2.6 for a bigger team. on the other hand there is a ds4 flash that you can run on a macbook with 128gb ram. an that one is perfectly usable for a lot of tasks.

disiplus··on Agents can now create Cloudflare accounts, buy domains, and deploy
The problem is not website, the problem is discovery and discovery is on Instagram, TikTok, and social networks. You don't have any incentive to build a website for a regular audience. What you might do is build an audience on a social network and then try to move them to a website.

But at that point you're big enough to build it properly.

disiplus··on Accelerating Gemma 4: faster inference with multi-token prediction drafters
depends, a super small one finetuned to do function calling instead sending it to big model and waiting, instead, you ask for a revenue in last month, i do a small llm function call -> show results. some bigger ones, analysis, summary, classification. what is great with smaller ones, and im looking at 2b, 4b is you can get a huge throughput with just vllm and a couple of consumer gpus. what i usually do is basically distillation of a big one onto smaller one.
disiplus··on Accelerating Gemma 4: faster inference with multi-token prediction drafters
i dont know what are you talking about, i replaced an older gpt4o with a finetuned qwen. there is a huge amount of "AI, that can be done with those models, or partly by those models." Huge amount of people would not notice the difference. And if you prepare the context correctly, even bigger slice of people would not notice.
disiplus··on Accelerating Gemma 4: faster inference with multi-token prediction drafters
nice, will run it later agains qwen3.6 27b, the speed was one of the reasons why in was running qwen and not gemma. the difference was big, there is some magic that happpens when you have more then 100tps.
disiplus··on DeepSeek v4
Depends how many users you have and what is "production grade" for you but like 500k gets you a 8x B200 machine.
disiplus··on Kimi K2.6: Advancing open-source coding
was part of the beta, its properly good model, in some sense i forgot that im not on opus or gpt. opus is still better. gpt is the one struggling for me. it has some niche in backend work but you can get the same with opus with skills, its lacking in almost all others.
disiplus··on ChatGPT Pro now starts at $100/month
It looks like its called prolite.

yet
disiplus··on GLM-5.1: Towards Long-Horizon Tasks
i have glm and kimi. kimi was in most of the cases better and my replacement for claude when i run out of tokens. Now im finding myself using glm more then kimi. Its funny that glm vs kimi, is like codex vs claude. Where glm and codex are better for backend and kimi and claude more for frontend.

as kimi did a huge amount of claude distilation it seems to be somewhat based in data

disiplus··on GLM-5.1: Towards Long-Horizon Tasks
Yeah it seems they did not align it to much, at least for now. Yesterday it helped me bypass the bot detection on a local marketplace. that i wanted to scrap some listing for my personal alerting system. Al the others failed but glm5.1 found a set of parameters and tweaks how to make my browser in container not be detected.
disiplus··on GLM-5.1: Towards Long-Horizon Tasks
basically my expirience as well. Sometimes it can break past 100k and be ok, but mostly it breaks down.
disiplus··on GLM-5.1: Towards Long-Horizon Tasks
When it works and its not slow it can impress. Like yesterday it solved something that kimi k2.5 could not. and kimi was best open source model for me. But it still slow sometimes. I have z.ai and kimi subscription when i run out of tokens for claude (max) and codex(plus).

i have a feeling its nearing opus 4.5 level if they could fix it getting crazy after like 100k tokens.

disiplus··on Denmark was reportedly preparing for full-scale war with the US over Greenland
The post mentions, france, germany and nordic nations. France, Holand and nordic nations helped in the early stages of US.
disiplus··on I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a supply-chain risk
It will also cost openai dearly if they don't communicate clearly, because I for one will internally push to switch from openai (we are on azure actually) to anthropic. Besides that my private account also.
disiplus··on Google restricting Google AI Pro/Ultra subscribers for using OpenClaw
I have them all. They're not just as good. Whoever tells you that looked only at the benchmarks, not real use. They all fall short at some point.

Kimi K2.5 is the best one, but it's still not at the level of what Anthropic released with opus 4.5.

disiplus··on Ggml.ai joins Hugging Face to ensure the long-term progress of Local AI
I think in the West we think everything is blocked. But for example, if you book an eSIM, when you visit you already get direct access to Western services because they route it to some other server. Hong Kong is totally different: they basically use WhatsApp and Google Maps, and everything worked when I was there.
disiplus··on Ggml.ai joins Hugging Face to ensure the long-term progress of Local AI
Yeah, they're the good guys. I suspect the open source work is mostly advertisements for them to sell consulting and services to enterprises. Otherwise, the work they do doesn't make sense to offer for free.
disiplus··on AI adoption and Solow's productivity paradox
Even if its a different session it can be enough. But that said i had times where it rewrote tests "because my implementation was now different so the tests needed to be updated" so you have to prompt even that to tell it to not touch the tests.
disiplus··on Is Show HN dead? No, but it's drowning
As a father of two boys, i can give you some feedback. The AI stories you will generate will probably be crap and not worth paying for. What my kids love is when i put them (like i take a picture of them, and then generate them in jungle or whatever setup it is with gemini banana) They want that i print them those out, i know it's temporary but its fun for us all. So you could combine those two things.
disiplus··on Is Show HN dead? No, but it's drowning
Tell that to linkedin group. they keep doing that, they dont credit it, but i assume at least 60% of other people can tell.
disiplus··on I’m joining OpenAI
thats by design, you know all those huge security implications. now image if it was so easy to setup and install and use.
disiplus··on Testing Ads in ChatGPT
they are source of data, so they are not fully without value.
