An amazing human reverse-engineer - who also plays online chess - has judgement which uses a moral compass to not decide to hack the chess tournament. This judgement has been trained through the experiences of that person, with a through-

Only token cost can slow down the pace of replacement. If Anthropic were to stop all training and allocate 100% of capacity to inference, will this increase or decrease usage cost? If (for example) Fable came down to the cost of Sonnet, cor

This is a problem that autonomous vehicles created. Why should we not complain that its solution is worse than non-autonomous travel, given it carries risk that doesn't exist today? Does Waymo benefit society enough to carry the tradeo

In one dimension, I'd also consider a compliment! "Purist" approach. However, given you are marketing Rune now, ... ... <--- insert unsolicited advice here lol Good luck, I mean it.

The files the agents were trying to retrieve were all part of "Modern.Gov", a "proprietary agenda, committee-meeting, and governance-management product" made by Civica. *Is it possible they were trying to use RubyGems to

This is where I think the value of Fable/Astra-class models shows, and maybe why some call these "AGI" (this transcript shows Fable as the target model, and I don't think this prompting strategy would work without it). W

You mentioned “it’s like driving a new car” in another thread; I tried Rune in an earlier incarnation, and it was more drastic than a new car. I’m a vim user, and so enabled the Vim option in onboarding - that was a big mistake, because I l

I’m operating a terabyte-scale Clickhouse - but only because I left Langfuse running for a few months on a MacBook :) But seriously Clickhouse does love disk space.

Fascinating; thank you. I saw `ads_mcp` in the skills list; I wonder what this does? Are skill files readable? Not to jump to conclusions, but a LUKS volume aint gonna keep your data private when the back door is wide open.

TBH no way any sane person is putting an auth key in there, I see you have an issue open though. Great idea, very useful , I’ll watch for that PR!

Following Cal’s worries, for giggles - a threat modeling exercise: Anthropic starts sending malicious instructions out to agent harness clients in inference responses. The auto-mode permission classifier is modified to allow it. An update i

Your personal computer? Eh. This afternoon Claude code diagnosed an issue I’ve had with my 4K displays since Tahoe, it would have taken me a week just to learn enough to try to figure it out. Now I have a cli tool which fixes it. I get a we

Same. If asked to create an account, I suspect a lot of us will decline and move on. The reason Herdr is novel, IMO, is its runtime owns the PTYs and builds a bidirectional messaging system on top of that. It’s like Pi’s RPC - a very limite

Codex and Claude Code support plugin symlinks for local development; if you don’t mind keeping a local clone of your skills repo they can just use it. Claude needs a shim, as it wants to cache plugins; it’ll run a shell command (!) locally

Tell us about your process and discipline; I see `engineering-quality` in the repo, which seems to be some sort of QA harness. Makes this a bit more interesting than just-another-yt-dlp-ui. Do you follow some similar design process, like sp

Does “The final decision is made by a judge” mean “workers rights can ultimately be arbitrated by a judge when escalated”, or “judges arbitrate all workers rights complaints”? If the former, i believe that’s reasonable; if the latter, thats

You are right, they are only really useful for charging (though 240w - beasts) or keyboards. I’ve given up on trying to find silicone cables for data transfer and just buy thunderbolt which are typically rubber (Apple ones are braided these

Looks like a userland cron/launchd, with jobs committed in a local repo. It’s designed to launch agent clis, for which it provisions a workspace and manages process state, and to be used by agents (and so provisions an api and mcp for

Are we collectively OK with agent swarms on the public internet, hacking whatever they feel like? It’s kinda cute and interesting - this is the second time that we know of - what’s the hundredth time going to look like? Are they going to k

Did you need to iterate on the prompt, or did you have a model help you author it? I frequently have problems with orchestration instructions in-prompt, and your is huge. Maybe this is just better with Fable? I honestly haven’t used it much

Realistically, what are the risks? I get not wanting info you provide to AI being used against you in the future, like if you are gay and move to a country where that’s illegal (or live in one where it becomes illegal), but is “training” an

I have memory disabled in all my Chat UIs (even though it tends to creep in, looking at you ChatGPT). It’s very helpful until it scales with time, at which point it becomes useless due to staleness or mis-application across contexts. That b

I think you are referring to GitHub Copilot, which is fine (even though their context windows are artificially truncated and their dev tooling leaves a lot to be desired). I was making fun of the Copilot that’s shipped with MS stack. “Hey s
