orbis-tertius··on After 600 experiments, here's what I discovered about JEPA world models
Seconding that, gorgeous animations
orbis-tertius··on Ask HN: What are you doing now that Claude is down?
It was nice while it lasted
orbis-tertius··on Ask HN: What are you doing now that Claude is down?
That's very nice
orbis-tertius··on Ask HN: What are you doing now that Claude is down?
Actually reading through a 35 pages planning doc. One word at a time.

And ctrl+r status.claude.com like I'm Jesse Eisenberg at the end of The Social Network

orbis-tertius··on Elevated errors on claude.ai, Claude Code, and platform.claude.com
can someone ask codex to fix claude code please

Maybe Cloudflare related? There were some (possibly unrelated) outages on CF around the same minutes
orbis-tertius··on Socratic Tutor
Forgot to make it public! Should be working now

Thanks a lot for flagging this

orbis-tertius··on Socratic Tutor
If anyone is interested we built a TUI to use this outside Claude Code, with integrated spaced repetition and anki flashcards export

orbis-tertius··on Socratic Tutor
This works really well.

A positive take: this works much better than the many projects on gh that did this before Jane Street. This would be evidence that creativity and execution still matter, even when the product is just an md file

A cynical take: network effects are everything. tens of projects doing the same thing and this only gains traction when an already popular org does it

orbis-tertius··on United Airlines bans AI agents from booking flights on behalf of travelers
With Captchas? But I do understand your sentiment
orbis-tertius··on LLM-Anthropic 0.31
So Fable 5.2 max technically failed the pelican test?
orbis-tertius··on Jane Street: Socratic Tutor
Yes, the comment was intended as a playfully hyperbolic nod to the lack of novelty and originality in the idea, but I guess the intended tone didn't carry through :)
orbis-tertius··on Gemini Decisions API
Wouldn't learning a calibrated probability distribution just be a consequence of the CE loss being a proper scoring rule? So, by construction, they are approximating the distribution of the labels. Of course in practice there might be issues with overfitting the log-likelihood and the with the labels being a finite sample of the population distribution
orbis-tertius··on Show HN: Aq – an attention queue TUI for Claude Code
Thanks! For now we just keep separate Claude Code sessions as separate independent windows. What feature would you like this to have? For example, the ability to organise windows/sessions together and have them push to the same attention queue?
orbis-tertius··on Exploration–Exploitation Dilemma
If you're interested in these topics, the Sutton & Barto RL book is excellent, and Chapter 2 has a lot of discussion on exploration vs. exploitation strategies
orbis-tertius··on Museums sector warned of 'acute threat' posed by AI scraping bots
Would it be a crazy unimplementable unenforceable idea to demand legal requirements for agents to identify themselves to servers?
orbis-tertius··on Can a Linear Program Do Weight-Space Programming?
Weight-space programming doesn't have an established definition yet afaik, but it would implement weight changes using a trained model using forward passes, no derivatives needed
orbis-tertius··on Atuin Threads: All your agent sessions on every machine
Nice solution
orbis-tertius··on Atuin Threads: All your agent sessions on every machine
I did read the article but missed that. Paranoia can definitely co-occur with distracted reading, they're independent dimensions ;)

Thanks for the info, will give it a try

orbis-tertius··on Atuin Threads: All your agent sessions on every machine
Fair enough, I missed that. Will give it a try!
orbis-tertius··on Atuin Threads: All your agent sessions on every machine
I love Atuin, but have some reservations about a shared server keeping all my shell history and agent sessions. Am I being too paranoid and missing out on convenience?
orbis-tertius··on My AI agents found an unmapped Maya site?
> Me: That's awesome! Please check which of these villages haven't been discovered yet. Search both the literature and the archives.

> Agent: One major village doesn't seem to have been registered.

The idea of just brute forcing discovery with agents on lidar is really cool, but doesn't the story ultimately rest on the agent making a mistake in its literature search?

orbis-tertius··on Ask HN: How do you manage your AI agents' context across clients and projects?
We run everything in separate worktrees, and built https://github.com/nodo-labs-uk/attention-queue to manage our Claude Code sessions
orbis-tertius··on Just Write Rust
Sorry for the snark, was meant in good spirit :) The unoriginal subtext being a reference to the correlation between LLMs capability and number of Rust repos.

Thanks for the link!

orbis-tertius··on Just Write Rust
*just let your LLM write rust

(sorry)

orbis-tertius··on Claude Whiteboards, Claude Sheets, and Claude Data
Agree, I wonder if this is just a case of trying to meet white collar workers where they are? I guess most non-technical white collars are familiar with sheets, docs etc and prefer sticking with it
orbis-tertius··on Notes on Making a Canonical Anthology: The Oxford Book of American Poetry
Very beautiful poems, thanks for sharing
orbis-tertius··on Kora
The website doesn't help understanding what the product is, so hard to comment on it. Something OS/LLMs related? Anyway, it inspires an aside: now that website building is commoditised, the status/expertise signal seems to be anything that moves opposite to Claudified design rules. Hence the videos, the leftfield animations, the lack of brand carousel etc
orbis-tertius··on Show HN: Cosh – An open-source AI agent orchestrator
Very nice, and congrats on launch! It would be helpful if you could add to the README a summary of the key differences with other TUI orchestrators.
orbis-tertius··on I hate everything I vibe-coded. Here they are
I understand the feeling, and definitely share it sometimes. Feeling like we're losing expertise and ownership of our work sucks!

Maybe programming is just not an intellectually satisfying vocation anymore; but whichever format your ideas will take in the future, please don't stop having them and working on them! That would be such a waste
