jxmesth··on I built a vulnerable app and spent $1,500 seeing if LLMs could hack it
I'd love to see the results for Mimo v2.5 pro, been hearing a lot about it
jxmesth··on Project Glasswing: An Initial Update
Does anyone know how we can get access to this? We're a financial institution, pretty well known locally but not internationally. Can we request access directly or maybe via bedrock/azure?
jxmesth··on Zerostack – A Unix-inspired coding agent written in pure Rust
I'd love to test this out when it's ready : )
jxmesth··on The last six months in LLMs in five minutes
I'm a security person and would love to hear other people's input here as I don't have that much experience with this
jxmesth··on Securing a DoD contractor: Finding a multi-tenant authorization vulnerability
We've been thinking about testing this stuff out as well. Have you had a chance to look into stuff like XBOW/Horizon3?
jxmesth··on Zed 1.0
So then the question is, why haven't they?
jxmesth··on Zed 1.0
Why do I get a warning when trying to run this on Windows 11?
jxmesth··on Claude Opus 4.7
Ngl I'd really love to know what you're using now instead of Claude. Desperately want to use something better
jxmesth··on Qwen3.6-Max-Preview: Smarter, Sharper, Still Evolving
Yeah, it's just way easier to do via the web/mobile app but I'll give using it via the CLI a try. Thanks :)
jxmesth··on ChatGPT for Excel
Thanks!
jxmesth··on Qwen3.6-Max-Preview: Smarter, Sharper, Still Evolving
I gave it a try a few weeks ago tbh, I'll give it another shot tho. I mainly use their Web chats since that's easier to use and previously, qwen, deepseek, kimi, all were unable to output proper docx files or use skills.
jxmesth··on Qwen3.6-Max-Preview: Smarter, Sharper, Still Evolving
Sorry for the confusion, I was actually talking about their Web based chat. Since most of my work is governance and docs, I just use their Web chats and they just refuse to output proper documents like Claude or Chatgpt do.
jxmesth··on Qwen3.6-Max-Preview: Smarter, Sharper, Still Evolving
The only reason I'm stuck with Claude and Chatgpt is because of their tool calling. They do have some pretty useful features like skills etc. I've tried using qwen and deepseek but they can't even output documents. How are you guys handling documents and excels with these tools? I'd love to switch tbh.
jxmesth··on ChatGPT for Excel
I tried looking this up but wasn't able to find info on this on Microsoft's website. Do you have a link for this?
jxmesth··on Pro Max 5x quota exhausted in 1.5 hours despite moderate usage
I'm curious if people are going to be switching to something else. OpenAI perhaps?
jxmesth··on Claude API Error: 529
Forget downtime, even when I'm able to use it, the limits make it unusable.

As an example, on my free account, I literally sent 1 message asking for information from an ongoing chat, no research, just a simple question and it exhausted it's 5 hour limit. I was using sonnet 4.6 btw. This is crazy.

Anyone else having the same issue? And if someone from Anthropic is reading this, please communicate. This feels like a bug.

jxmesth··on Show HN: I took back Video.js after 16 years and we rewrote it to be 88% smaller
Any idea what the website's built with? I really like the design/UI tbh
jxmesth··on OpenAI is walking away from expanding its Stargate data center with Oracle
I love how you explained this
jxmesth··on Claude Sonnet 4.6
I'm curious why and how models like these give one answer for one person and a completely different answer for someone else. One reason can be memory maybe? Past conversations that tell the model "Think this way for this user"
jxmesth··on Claude Sonnet 4.6
I'm curious how this would compare with codex 5.3. I've heard Codex actually is pretty good but Opus 4.6 has become synonymous with AI coding because all the big names praise it. I haven't compared them against each other though so can't really draw a conclusion.
jxmesth··on GPT-5.2 and GPT-5.2-Codex are now 40% faster
Someone should create a daily benchmark site for Codex like they did for Claude

jxmesth··on Waiting for dawn in search: Search index, Google rulings and impact on Kagi
Honestly, would be very cool if someone could make a search engine of only human-produced content. I know it's going to be hard and compute intensive but I don't think it's impossible. In fact, Google could do it. A paid service for only human made content. Obviously there would be a margin of error as we can never be 100% sure if something really is AI written.

Have you tried Coder (coder.com)?
jxmesth··on Ask HN: How do I re-train myself to think clearly?
Thanks for replying. I'll definitely check his stuff out.
jxmesth··on Ask HN: How do I re-train myself to think clearly?
Thanks a lot for your input. I feel like this really resonates with me and tbh I'm kind of the same as you when it comes to being "average" but not really average. I just feel like if I applied myself and my thinking properly to problems and situations I could do far greater things. I'll definitely take everything you said into account.

Here's an alternative.

u/tinodb, thanks
jxmesth··on Launch HN: Grapevine (YC S19) – A company GPT that actually works
Going off on a tangent here but, does anyone have a good guide on how to set up an AI/LLM/GPT chatbot/agent for a small business?

Not looking to spend millions but a couple thousand are alright. TIA
