GLM5 is showing very disappointing general problem solving abilities

Hey, that's great OpenAI. Now add about 6 zeroes to the end of the weekly token limit for your customers and maybe we could use the app

Simply search user prompts for curse words and then measure hostility sentiment. User hostility rises as agents fail to meet expectations.

I <3 Martin and the team that built it. It's great to see that the Rust stack they used is the one I contributed to, now 8 years ago. Aging like fine wine!

There's a really long tail in this list. What diamonds are there in the single-mention rough?

I'm not reading a solid argument as to not use "..Defaults()" because doing so suggests that you may introduce a bug and therefore should be explicit about EVERYTHING instead? Ugh. Hard disagree.

I don't want to buy one-- I want to build one! I already have a 3d printer and the electronic components.

We have similar interests! I've been working on a DIY animatronic project that is mostly vibe-coded using Sonnet 4.5. It's my first electronics project. So far, I got the Ultrasonic Sensor to trigger led when object is less than 2 feet away. I set up a sound player and the components fried when I started the device. I have to redo all of the wiring for the sound setup again. I only have one of three sound modules that isn't bricked.

The comments in this thread reveal a community of parents who are aspiring builders of high tech devices for their children. I think this community need a discord.
