who even cares anymore? we cant use it
sourcecodeplz··on Amazon to buy satellite firm Globalstar in $11.57B deal
if you can't beat 'em, join 'em
sourcecodeplz··on Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v5
small (700b) open-weights models are great at coding and tool calling but lack world knowledge. because the parameter difference is so huge T to B, of course they also are not as intelligent.

this is i think the difference in this new analysis.

doesnt mean deepseek is bad or useless.

sourcecodeplz··on OpenAI and Anthropic cut their LLM prices by up to 80% within a few months. Why?
> $38 of revenue per GPU

its per GPU-cluster, not a single gpu.

sourcecodeplz··on Amazon’s “digital pacifier” for toddlers
doesnt HAVE to be old.

just a regular PC with keyboard mouse monitor and the unit.

edit: maybe a DVD unit for reading AND writing disks.

sourcecodeplz··on Amazon’s “digital pacifier” for toddlers
when i was around 8-9? i got my first "PC".

but thing is, it was not a whole PC. it was just the keyboard...

i played with that keyboard for 1 year before my family could afford to buy the rest of the PC.

in that year i learned the position of every key and would show off to friends how i can find any key, with my eyes closed.

sourcecodeplz··on Muse exposes users' personal and business secrets when they share conversations
i understand the adoption for these things is off the charts.

usage-time growing fast, with tasks and cron jobs.

in the last spacex earnings report (few hours ago), Elon said he thinks their grok-bot will next year make up most of their AI inference usage across their datacenters.

basically he tried to imply these bots/personal-agents get lots of usage once users start customizing them. and it is bringing in a lot of money in API usage.

sourcecodeplz··on The Future of CSS
i also found this to be even more powerful today with AI.

dont need to import libraries anymore, can just build my own.

sourcecodeplz··on The Future of CSS
you can&should use AI to help you with frontend (css,js).

doesnt mean you tell it: make it look nice.

i find it is great if you want to apply your creativity and ideas.

how to add borders, gradients, animations, positioning, etc.

its a great time for everyone to build things, just how they want/imagine them.

sourcecodeplz··on Steam Users Beg for "No AI" Filter as Vibecoders Flood Next Fest
AI is a tool nowadays, cant ban it.

plenty of games made with AI that are fun.

sourcecodeplz··on DeepSeek banned from U.S. federal civilian agencies under new DHS order
due to its popularity with self hosting by both individuals and companies, the deepseek model, its weights, can easily represent the whole of deepseek.

so if they say dont use deepseek, it means dont use the company & dont use the model. it is the only reasonable way to read this. you are looking for doorways where there arent any reasonable ones.

sourcecodeplz··on AfD Leak: What 421,179 Hacked Emails Show about the German Far Right
well for example in Romania (EU member state), they canceled the presidential elections (2024) after they were won by a person no one knew anything about.

he posted & advertised heavily nationalistic videos on tiktok and gained huge following.

court said the election had been affected by irregularities, alleged foreign interference, and problems with campaign financing and online campaigning.

sourcecodeplz··on Namecheap just seized and disabled all my domains
yep, social approval and good faith will always get you constant business (word of mouth - recommendations).

but "numbers guys" say no, we need squeeze profits short term..

sourcecodeplz··on Namecheap just seized and disabled all my domains
namecheap purchased by private equity CVC in 2025 for $1.5B

so costs need to go down (-human support + ai automation)

and prices go up (they increased i think .com 3 times this year alone)

sourcecodeplz··on DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash-1017
at this point there are 100s of benchmarks.

so AI labs can just pick which to show

sourcecodeplz··on Tesla Roadster
that "cold gas" is actually just regular air.

it fills its tanks with air from the atmosphere.

sourcecodeplz··on Muse Spark Open
its around 20tps
sourcecodeplz··on Muse Spark Open
from what i understand its somewhere between muse spark 1.3 and 1.2 in some coding benches.
sourcecodeplz··on The First Social Network: In rural Argentina residents send messages w AM radio
maybe it is a form of control.

if anyone could broadcast to so many so easily, that is considered dangerous nowadays. if there is no one there to receive (no one remembers AM, no AM receivers), you can still broadcast but no one will listen.

sourcecodeplz··on OpenCode 2.0
true but from what i found, the opencode team tested these prompts and evaluated that a bigger prompt is better for some models, overall.

very possible that a smaller more custom system prompt (+ custom tools) could work better for specific use cases.

sourcecodeplz··on OpenCode 2.0
haven't upgraded yet to 2.0 but wanted to comment and just say thanks to the opencode/anomaly team for the generous (no-login) free tier.

you install the software and it just works, no login no nothing.

sourcecodeplz··on Muse Wonder
its three big companies at the frontier now? openai, anthropic and now meta.

why is google still not frontier?

sourcecodeplz··on Show HN: EU Podcasts – daily charts from 30 languages
the backend is PHP and data is from PodcastIndex. hosted on an oracle free tier vps (1gb ram).
sourcecodeplz··on Why isn't the industry freaking out about DeepSeek 4.1 Flash?
you can spend your opencode go quota faster than 1 month. with the limits i think its about two weeks.

so even if the week reset with some %usage left, its not actually lost if its not the end of the month.

sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: What do you run on a $5 VPS that's worth keeping online 24/7?
i use the oracle x86 1gb ram to host php and static websites.
sourcecodeplz··on Claude Haiku 5.5
not a great comparison.

haiku x-high: Cost $0.028, Tokens 54,579

luna high: Cost $0.004 Tokens 6,679
