In their defense, it's an astonishingly good model for this size and you can use it for all sorts of cool stuff.
Little demo of using this local model to inject AI into a page with a monkeyscript: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPi33D8DoQ0&t=3000s
Switzerland is not in the EU.
Yeah, and the lesson is ... don't be a turkey :D
It's not a certainty, but if you're not prepared for an extreme event, it can be ouch.
Every morning the turkey rejoiced and said to himself "oh joy, I'm such a lucky turkey, I don't have to do anything, the food is plentiful, I just eat and shoot the breeze the whole day long, what an awesome life!" Until one morning, the day before thanksgiving, the turkey rejoiced about the awesome day he's about to have ... just to be picked up 5 minutes later and dragged to the slaughterhouse.
Remember when Reddit sold to Conde Nast for peanuts because Digg was going to win? :D
We still don't have a proper headless CLI for Obsidian, but with the files being Markdown with Bases implemented using YAML Frontmatter, this CLI solves the main thing missing for working with your Obsidian vault on a headless server (for example, with your agent).
Thanks for clarifying. I can see the point. Would a phrasing like "The pope believes in and promotes supernatural claims that are not supported by evidence" work better? On reflection I would have preferred that too.
I'll accept your perspective and try to learn from it.
However I think that the comment is relevant, and you can see from the replies gathered before it was flagged that it did spark a relevant discussion.
Reminding that the speaker is a spiritual leader and not an authority on the use of technology is not a sneer and and not an ideological statement. In any context other than religion, which I understand is sensitive, a statement of that sort would be considered a contribution to the discussion, not an ideological battle. And that's precisely the problem - censoring a discussion about the relevance of religion to the matter is the ideological act.
Technically correct. We can't call every compulsive behaviour "addiction". Using a social app for 16 hours a day is a very serious problem and requires treatment. But it's not addiction in the same sense that other commonly-recognised addictions to substance and even behaviours are.
Yes, for MCP servers there's still no good standard. Ruler helps with that. I happen to not use MCPs much, but for a setup that is MCP-heavy that can help.
Looks very similar. That's good - diversity and more options are good.
But ... as the author and maintainer of Ruler I can tell you that I don't use it and I don't recommend using it (or this new tool).
In almost all cases it isn't necessary anymore - most agents support AGENTS.md (or at least a hack like `@AGENTS.md` in CLAUDE.md), and Agent Skills are the best way to customise agents and are available everywhere now.
There are some corner cases where using a tool like Ruler may still make sense, but if in doubt, you probably don't need it.
This is nonsense. Whatever you think about this project, Peter very clearly and very publicly said that he is not interested in any of the crypto stuff and is seriously bothered by it.
And there's a SKILL for that: https://skills.sh/intellectronica/agent-skills/beautiful-mer...
There is no "loneliness epidemic". It's a bad journalism epidemic. People in general are a combination of lone and grouping. Both are OK. People don't need to socialise all the time. People who want to socialise but can't usually suffer from emotional difficulties that they haven't addressed. Same for people who obssess about socialising all the time.

I hope Claude adds this too. The "all-you-can-eat" model was never going to work for serious users. You can't really use a tool that might bail out on you in the middle of a session because you've hit some limits.
Yes, in this regard it's very similar. It works as an agent and does whatever you need it to do to complete the task. In comparison to Claude it tends to plan more and improvise less.
Codex works much better for long-running tasks that require a lot of planning and deep understanding.
Claude, especially 4.5 Sonnet, is a lot nicer to interact with, so it may be a better choice in cases where you are co-working with the agent. Its output is nicer, it "improvises" really well even if you give it only vague prompts. That's valueable for interactive use.
But for delegating complete tasks, Codex is far better. The benchmarks indicate that, as do most practicioners I talk to (and it is indeed my own experience).
In my own work, I use Codex for complete end-to-end tasks, and Claude Sonnet for interactive sessions. They're actually quite different.
How is this ironic? Carelessly AI-generated output (what we call "slop") is precisely that mediocre average you get before investing more in refining it through iteration. The problem isn't that additional work is needed, but that in many cases it is assumed that no additional work is needed and the first generation from a vague prompt is good enough.
Maybe it will finally start recommending better cheese. My feed is so boring.
The AI Toolbox Survey maps the real-world dev stack: which tools developers actually use across IDEs, extensions, terminal/CLI agents, hosted “vibe coding” services, background agents, models, chatbots, and more.
No vendor hype - just a clear picture of current practice.
Please take ~2 minutes to help us understand the landscape, benchmark your own setup against what’s popular, spot gaps and new options to try, and receive the aggregated results to explore later.
Thank you!
:D
Opus costs 10X more. Maybe it's better, but I can't afford to use it, so who cares.
OP here. I actually agree with you that the "findings" here are meaningless. This is pure vibe.
Also regarding "Sonnet is faster" I did explicitly mention that I believe this is because GPT-5 is in preview and hours from the release. The speed I experienced doesn't say anything about the model performance you can expect.
or just ask AI to do it for you :D

I've been at it for over 30 years. Still learning.
You can learn fast today, and then continue tomorrow, and next month, and next year, and if you remain curious, half a lifetime later you are still learning.
Should read "Up to date prices for Closed American LLM APIs"
Very cool! If you extrapolate the current trend by 2073 Linux will dominate the desktop market.
