I believe OP is talking about new sessions or after compaction. He’s getting at the fact that LLMs are stateless and have to rediscover your codebase on every new session.

For me, the concern about SQLite has never been if the database engine itself is “reliable for real data”, but that storing data on a single node is not “reliable for real data”. Performance aside, what you are positing is no different than

There’s no better option today because it’s impossible to make it a better experience. That machine at home will need upgrades, it could fail, it costs thousands, it sucks lots of power. There is no mass market appeal.

What you’re describing is more likely to manifest as a proprietary product from someone like Samsung or Ring (likely both!) than an open standard AI server that integrates with everything in your home automatically. This is exactly like wha

I don’t think there’s anything different between what you’re suggesting and a homelab. Most people do not have a homelab and are happy to offload services like photo storage or security to remote providers.

Spend 5 minutes looking up how to make a chat bot and be amazed how Telegram is really the only option. I was dumbfounded when rolling my own agent. iMessage is proprietary. WhatsApp charges you. Unofficial APIs exist, sure, but not my cu

Sounds like OP did some pretty cool engineering to make this run performantly. Definitely not your run of the mill AI slop.

Seems like a great fit - kinda surprised it didn’t happen sooner. I think we are deep in the valley of local AI, but I’d be willing to bet it breaks out in the next 2-3 years. Here’s hoping!

My pessimism is mostly rooted in the VC economics of it all. The vision is great, but its a busy space and there's no actual product or business. They basically wrote the guy a check to build the spaceship in space.

Ignoring the VC economics and awful name, I won’t be as pessimistic as everyone. I see the vision. That said, nobody knows what the AI future looks like. Entire’s entire thesis is a solution for something we don’t even know we need. It’s a

Your sentiment resonates with me a lot. I wonder what we’ll consider the inflection point 10 years from now. It seemed like the zeitgeist was screaming about scaling limits and running out of training data, then we got Claude code, sonnet 4

That’s kind of my point. They’re not really in competition. I bet they’d have an easier time with this scale if they were on SQL Server, but obviously that migration isn’t happening and startups don’t reach for it for many reasons.

I had never written an iOS app until a couple months ago and was initially very put off when I hit the same wall. The alternative is to host on a cheap VPS and find some way to prevent other people from using your app. When you cost it out,

Yep, as a manager, I am explaining this conundrum often. You can be a rockstar SDE 2 or senior, but not be ready for a promotion because you aren’t leading enough.

It’s a fast moving field. People aren’t coming up with new ideas to be performative. They see issues with the state of the art and make something that may or may not advance things forward. MCP is huge for getting agents to do things in the

I’m incredibly biased (I work at Microsoft) but I love Teams. It’s a great meeting app and a great chat app. It blows my mind that there are companies that have totally separate apps for each (Zoom/Slack).

I definitely agree with you, but it’s probably a little apples and oranges. MCP server is a one stop shop for discovering “tools”. To leverage a CLI tool “from scratch”, your agent has to do a web search to find if a CLI tool even exists, f
