this is unfortunately very common - I kept running very small ads regularly over many years (~10 years by now) and the % of bots has been steadily increasing, and Google doesn't really have any system to report those reliably to them.

I was just answering a question above about the email access concerns. What you mention is another concern, but personally, if they are going to be showing ads to me, I'd actually prefer them to targeted for versus some totally random

yes, it was not easy to mentally give that access, but then I heard from friends how much work was put in into securing it and separating LLM/agents from the API tokens access (also saw this detailed blog post from the lead developer -

I'm not sure - it may as well be that regular consumers just don't realize they need this and will greatly benefit from it. My personal anecdote - we had a complex family travel in the summer, with 6 ppl and 6 separate flights boo

first of all, thanks for building this - that's amazing! Quick question - does it really need external SSDs, or if the local SSD fits the whole model - how fast the model would be? e.g. on your machine, M5 Max 128GB, with 4TB SSD? may

while these 1200 agents were fooling around to cheat on a benchmark and achieved impressive results despite of the limitations (sandbox, no internet, no intercom at first), one can imagine how much more efficient a similar army of agents ma

and more specifically - what harness is known to be the best fit for Qwen local models, and are there any evals/benchmarks for harness+model pairs?

Impressive speed up at the cost of quality - a bit lower quality than 12B model, but multiple times faster…

if there're some specific tests/evals to satisfy that an agent can test by itself, it can easily iterate for hours. And this time also includes running those tests/evals, which may not be small.

0.8GB is for text only. It's more like ~1.1GB if you include video/audio encoder

Could just be more tests? :) Which is good for code quality in general and reduces support burden, but doesn’t lead directly to more features

imo, it really depends on what you enjoy doing. Regardless of AI, choose software development if you like to build complex systems that no-one has built before, and have enough patience to dig deep / debug things to make them work exac

There're tons of ways to fine-tune WebRTC that it wouldn't corrupt audio in poor network - it has all of the controls to smoothly trade-off latency vs quality. Not just NACKs - FEC, disable PLC/Acceleration/Deceleration,

it doesn't necessarily have to be tied to monetization & privacy directly. It may just be that ROI doesn't make sense: very few user out there truly care about (or even understand) E2EE, for quite some users it creates an inco

building new features on top of E2EE is genuinely hard, and I've seen many companies struggle to keep innovating while staying strictly E2EE. Having seen multiple leading messaging/VoIP stacks from inside, the amount of engineerin

amazing to see Claude Code top models still way above all other models for C++ & Java, while GPT 5.5 is higher in Python & JS and others. Shows the skew in the training data sets, and maybe the go-to-market focus - with Anthropic f

Fwiw, this sounds like a healthy discourse - you don’t have to agree on everything, every approach has its merits, code that ends up shipping and supporting production wins the argument in some sense… This is not special to Meta in any way,

Tangentially, on this CD policy - it leads to really high p99s for a long tail of rare requests which don’t get reliable prewarming due to these frequent HHVM restarts…
