QVAC is Tether’s answer to centralized AI. An entirely new paradigm where intelligence runs privately, locally, and without permission.

No clouds. No gatekeepers. Just you, your machines, and unstoppable intelligence.

This is pretty cool and I could see myself recommending this to our team for some applications. Congrats on the launch!

A couple of bits of feedback:

1. Code samples on the site have broken whitespace on mobile (Android/Brave) so look a bit intense.

2. The pricing is complex to reason about - I have to consider the technical aspects and the number of users? Why don't I just get an API key?

Absolutely - I love those. I wonder if there are any other simple web games like this that run on mobile with more nuanced interplayer comms as you suggest.

The game is wonderful and I'm so glad it doesn't have chat! My 9yo niece and I played it through side by side and if it had chat or consistent remote player presence that wouldn't have been appropriate.

The work. It intelligently provides the labor, it doesn't replace your brain. It runs the script itself.

Not really. This works great in Claude Sonnet 4.1: 'Please could you research a list of valid TLDs and a list of valid HTML5 elements, then cross reference them to produce a list of HTML5 elements which are also valid TLDs. Use search to find URLs to the lists, then use the analysis tool to write a script that downloads the lists, normalises and intersects them.'

Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.

What a beautiful story. This - generally, a journey through the drift of recipe fidelity over time, and specifically grounded in your story - would make a great book. Mark Kurlansly has some lovely books that weave the history of recipes with history generally. His history of Salt is truly captivating.

Loss, humility, service. And the most important: community.

New comment by Blahah in "Chatbox app is back on the US app store"

Blahah — Sat, 13 Sep 2025 12:19:27 +0000

The app doesn't label itself as GPL licensed... The terms of the installed Android app are clear that it's closed source [0].

There's a community edition that's GPL, and it does say they're 'going open source' but clearly it's not the exact same app as the official distribution:

  This is the repository for the Chatbox Community Edition, open-sourced under the GPLv3 license.
  
  Chatbox is going open-source Again!
  
  We regularly sync code from the pro repo to this repo, and vice versa.

The title should be "why are release notes important for your product?". The current version parses as "why leak product information".

New comment by Blahah in "AI Darwin Awards 2025"

Blahah — Tue, 09 Sep 2025 20:28:26 +0000

This doesn't have the juice of the actual Darwin awards. Show me the AI equivalent of the couple who had sex during a lightning storm and were struck - the woman died, the man's penis wss fused inside her, and he had to watch while a bear ate her face. Or the group who went dynamite ice fishing and their spaniel retrieved a lit stick of dynamite and hid under their truck.

Having bad security or engineering and losing a bit of money does not compare.

Lots of people really prefer watching videos. I'm very grateful that tools exist for those of us who don't.

In British english at least, 'going shopping' is a normal way to say 'getting groceries for the week'.
