Finished watching Titanic with kids. One of the best movies ever.

“I figure life’s a gift and I don’t intend on wasting it.”

I naively went into a work problem thinking that RAG was solved by the service offered at work, and wow was I wrong. Been a fun week so far experimenting with many different methods before doing the academic research, and it's been nice to be validated by outside research.

was shocked at how antiquated making international payments are in 2026!! used transfermate - no tracking, no visibility. just transfer and pray my money reaches 🙏

should have picked another payment method… silly me

Are tokens an equivalent of work? Like a currency and therefor a tool to steer and prioritize work in large orgs. Hypothesis: In the end all workpackages will consist of 1 accountable human and 99% tokens burnt by an ai.

I very much like textlog, it feels like a breath of fresh air

this

…

feel the same!

tysm! welcome!

ai coding feels like it has reached diminishing returns for me. luna is my default orchestrator, routing work by complexity. in practice, usage lands around 16% luna, 48% sol, 30% astra, and 6% terra. at this point, i care less about each new frontier release. the system already finds a capable model for the job. the frontier is moving beyond my day-to-day work, so i’m happy to settle into predictable models for a while.

I’ve found the same, albeit with Opus — it’s hard to find uses for Fable. I don’t need a model that works for longer or works on harder problems, I need one that consistently produces simple, easy to understand, code; which at this point none of them do.

I've been there since I settled on a combination of GLM, DeepSeek and MiMo for planning, implementation, and verification flows. I'm a lot more interested at this point in having cheaper models that can consistently do the work I need. It's been a while that I hanven't noticed any improvement when I try new frontier models. I only notice they are very expensive.

…

same here, for almost an year. At this point, I could easily live with models that were released 6-12 months ago and continue doing so. also possibly the reason why the current focus has been around agentic workflows or agentic anything, than the model capabilities.

Coding probably yeah, but still they are bad at generating novel information, new ideas and such. They’re also not very good at seeing the bigger picture, they will narrowly perform the task but they’re not taking into account future revisions, which ends up in refactor after refactor in order to move forward.

hű, de izgalmas, most kúszik fel a Gemma 4 LLM a silent hawk laptopra, a dual boot-os főterminál már nem bírta az osztályharcot, remélhetőleg nem kell hozzá se vpn, se statikus ip, VirtualBoxba jön az OpenClaw ügynök, majd a humanities informatikai projekten belül beszámolok róla

hello, but exciting, Gemma 4 LLM is now crawling onto the silent hawk laptop, the dual boot main terminal couldn't handle the class struggle anymore, hopefully it won't require a vpn or static ip, the OpenClaw agent is coming to VirtualBox, I'll report on it within the humanities IT project

At moms house for the holiday weekend so the kids can see Nana. She has a "premium Plex" account on her tv serving a truly massive amount of content. Allegedly the brother of a long time friend is offering the "service". She says that the service will go down when the host is having outages, so the infra is likely local. I brought my year this weekend. We are going to dig in to this guys operation. Intuition dictates that there is some hand rolled accounting going on. I'd like to see it.

okay I'm starting to really like tf2!

Lonely in the night

Wrote a short essay on overreliance on metaphor in our "understanding" of the brain

Anybody here using mastodon regularly? What instance are you on? I can't decide on where to register 😅

I'm using mastodon.social but i think you can look the instances in their site and decide by interest.

There's a really good one run by someone in the Netherlands. He forked the software and made a ton of improvements. I was on there six years ago. I wish I could remember the name.

Ah! Qoto.org! It looks like it might be gone now though :/

mastodon.social/@pauladamsmas

…

I decided to use mstdn.social/@zbr - I like that’s it’s not too crowded and has a 500 word limit.

My first post on Twitter in 2007 or so was kinda about the utility of broadcasting what was on my mind. :)

I hate it when I don’t remember if I took my midday pill or not. Not that it matters a lot, but still, annoying. I have notifications set up but I discard them by habit because they are exact times and my sleep pattern fluctuates.

I once saw someone flip their pill bottle upside down after taking a pill. Not sure it'd help me, because I suspect that somehow I'd still only pay half-attention when taking pills and so still get forgetful and confused :shrug:

It actually works!

Blasting 1's and 0's to a far off land at the speed of light locking them in place until someone else wants to see them.

can imagine this like Pink Floyd lyrics

I often wish I had the ability to pause my main quest so I could focus more on side questing.

I'm Nobody! Who are you? Are you - Nobody - too? Then there's a pair of us! Dont tell! they'd banish us - you know! How dreary - to be - Somebody! How public - like a Frog - To tell your name - the livelong June - To an admiring Bog!

lovely

…

Nobody is perfect. I’m nobody.

Yesterday upon the stair I saw a man who wasn't there He wasn't there again today How I wish he'd go away!
