<p>I've continued working on Eidetica, my decentralized database project. I recently added support for a client/server architecture so that it can be transparently run as a local daemon for background sync and sharing the local storage with multiple users. I've been making progress on integrating blob storage next, as well as scoping out WASM based "lenses" for handling decentralized version/schema updates. <a href="https://github.com/arcuru/eidetica" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/arcuru/eidetica</a><p>I've primarily been testing it by building out my AI tool chaz into an Eidetica-native AI Agent framework for decentralized Agent sessions. It's working surprisingly well, it maps pretty well onto the storage model and it's uncovering issues with Eidetica I need to fix (which was always my primary reason for building it anyways). <a href="https://github.com/arcuru/chaz" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/arcuru/chaz</a><p>Separately I'm building OptiMap, a SIMD-accelerated hashmap repo that explores the design space for hashmaps and benchmarks different approaches. This is mostly for my own learning but I'll eventually turn into a blog post. <a href="https://github.com/arcuru/optimap" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/arcuru/optimap</a></p>

<p>You can always go join your condo board meetings though.

<p>It's actually even cheaper when you look at the cache read costs. Those costs can dominate in agent workflows and DeepSeek's cost for cache reads is insanely low comparatively. At $.003626/M tokens, the cheapest other thing on your list is >$.2/M tokens. That's on the scale of 100x cheaper.</p>

<p>> What changed with Mythos Preview is that a model can now take those low-severity bugs (which would traditionally sit invisible in a backlog) and chain them into a single, more severe exploit.<p>I think this statement seems to align with some of the other independent tests of Mythos[1]. It did very well on long agentic work which I expect is what they trained it for, and that requires being able to find these tangential links between loosely related topics in the context window.<p>[1] I'm mainly referring to <a href="https://www.aisi.gov.uk/blog/our-evaluation-of-claude-mythos-previews-cyber-capabilities" rel="nofollow">https://www.aisi.gov.uk/blog/our-evaluation-of-claude-mythos...</a></p>

<p>I run a home-grown 'Agent' by just making a local user on my linux box. I treat it like an untrusted local user, I only give it scoped API keys, and manage permissions just like any other thing. I have a NixOS machine and I have the Agent setup to just use home-manager to manage itself and its timers and deps and stuff inside its own config.<p>It would be insane to run a full fledged Agent from your own accounts, with the same access as yourself. At the same time running it fully scoped inside a container/VM seemed a little bit too heavy handed to me and the Agent-as-user seems like a better fit for me right now. (I did run my coding agents inside a microVM for a while but ran into a few too many annoyances)</p>

<p>But there's probably not encryption either, so the sqlite database file probably has a lot of duplicated data inside it that's visible externally. I'm also curious how well it compresses by just running the sqlite file through a compression tool. I don't know enough about sqlite storage internals to guess.</p>

<p>The Anthropic researchers have said their flow is as simple as:<p>1. Pick a file to seed as a starting place.<p>2. Ask the LLM (in an agent harness) to find a vulnerability by starting there.<p>3. If it claims to have found something, ask another one to create an exploit/verify it/prove it or whatever.<p>4. If both conclude there is a vuln, then with the latest models you almost certainly found something real.<p>Just run it against every file in a repo, or select a subset, or have an LLM select files with a simple "what X files look likely to have vulns?".<p>So basically yes, it is that simple. It's just a matter of having the money to pay for the tokens.</p>

<p>It's because they:<p>1. Forked an existing app that has all the features you listed.<p>2. Admit they don't really know the language and tech it uses.<p>3. Said upstream was too slow, but I don't see any(?) PRs from them on upstream besides the 2 that they list in the post. Their fork appears to have an extra 3,000 commits.<p>I'm not super against them doing this, but it's pretty easy to see why people don't like it. Hell, this is the same group that upgraded one of my side-projects from a few years ago and improved it into their 'baibot' matrix bot, so I wish them all the best. I like people making money from OSS, more power to them.</p>

<p>Personally, I think that the human directing the agent owns the copyright for whatever is produced, but the ability for the agent to build it in the first place is based off of stolen IP.<p>I'm concerned about the copyright 'washing' this enables though, especially in OSS, and I think the right thing for OSS devs to do is to try to publish resulting code with the strongest copyleft licensing that they are comfortable with - <a href="https://jackson.dev/post/moral-ai-licensing/" rel="nofollow">https://jackson.dev/post/moral-ai-licensing/</a></p>

<p>Reminder to all OSS projects: it is extraordinarily easy to setup a simple CI job to keep your code in sync between multiple Forges. And getting email notifications from a second Forge is 0 extra effort.<p>At least give people the option to start moving away from GitHub to contribute to your project. It will, ultimately, be better for the ecosystem.</p>

<p>If a service offers "Login with Google/Apple/Facebook/etc" you should never do that if they offer a username/password. It just increases the single point of failure. Avoid places that only offer the "Login with Foo" if at all possible (looking at you Tailscale).<p>As an ex-googler, the only reason I was comfortable keeping even my personal email there was because I could reach out internally if there was a problem. I left Google, and left gmail behind too.</p>
