staeff777on Codex Micro

Codex micro - is it a tiny coding agent? Or a small coding model? No it is hardware, that has nothing to do with coding.

I think they should have called it "codex luna" - because it's small!

staeff777on 2025: The Year in LLMs

I really like this idea and just tried some steps for myself. create user with homedir: sudo useradd -m agent add myself to agent group: sudo usermod -a -G agent $USER

Allow agent group to agent home dir: sudo chmod -R 770 /home/agent

Start a new shell with the group (or login/logoff): newgrp agent Now you should be able to change into the agent home.

Allow your user to sudo as agent: echo "$USER ALL=(agent) NOPASSWD: ALL" |sudo tee -a /etc/sudoers.d/$USER-as-agent now you can start your agent using sudo: sudo -u agent your_agent

works nice.

Well, there are some devices that try to inrease the screensize to the max, for example the Oneplus 6 (which has sadly a very high SAR value) or the newly "leaks" of de Mate 20.
