That crowd is moved to X these days, in my experience. HN became mostly the folks who didn't notice.

You can find everything on X, from dumpster fires to peak intellectual, everything in between.

Less so, here.

Projects like this probably need a dedicated noob-fork where 'anything goes', so the noobs feel like they're contributing but where their blast radius is contained.

And once in a blue moon something good comes out of it back to the real project.

With how verbose LLMs are and how much code churn they generate, it will be very difficult to extract anything and apply it back upstream

The fence around the sandbox is the important part.

Cherrypicking the occasional winner is just a side benefit.

"We"?

Yeah, we, the software developers.

Any recordings should be kept in something akin to password manager.

Heck, all of my data in any app should be kept in something like that.

Problem is, that's a hardware problem. Try asking Apple nicely to open their ecosystem; the appropriate expected response is, bring your own phone.

That being said, I do actually expect that this stuff will (generally*) stay on-device. Apple's oddly good about that.

Very cool. As a confirmed cheapskate, the first thing I did was check the cheap ones; but I noticed there was no information about the reliability of the providers - how long they were in business, how likely they'd ghost in two months, etc. Not sure if that information is even available or easy to obtain, but having made similar price comparison sites, thought the feedback on what I looked for first might be useful.

It's the first iteration of what will eventually be an on-device Siri/openclaw that not only has full access to your messages/docs/emails/life, but also has live audio access to what's going on around you.

Remember, this is all running via local models on-device.

This is how Siri/openclaw can hear you make plans for lunch, then add it to the calendar before you open your phone.

This is a step down the road to having an AI "presence" or entity that's always digesting sensory data, just like a human.

Marital strife is a few years out from getting a lot more evidence-based.

Good. I wish we had the “home stenographer” sketch from the Chapelle Show in real life. Now we do.

The classifier is too strict. It's rare to be able to complete a project without being permanently relegated to Opus. I'd expect that the domains where this accelerates progress will be fairly limited.

Yeah, this feature is only useful to scientists who work at institutions that have deals with Anthropic to use the models without the classifiers.

How hard is it to get access to the Anthropic Cybersecurity program? That’s gotta be rough.

It was surprisingly easy for me to be approved in their CVP programme as an independent security researcher, that said, abliterated Qwen3.8-27B model feels better and cheaper.

Nice. Though it sounds like you have to already have some creds under your belt first.

What quant and what abliteration of qwen 3.8 27b has worked for you? I'm concerned that too much quantization and it can't do the work anymore.

Not sure to be honest. I have a couple of CVEs and also linked a talk I had presented as it mentioned those as an example. Got approved in a few minutes.

I'm a hobbyist and I got in. Just filled in the form.

You have to use Persona to ID, so take that into account.

I imagine because quality of transcription is what matters.

They just know they can't afford the power right now to do it. They would if they thought they could get away with it.
