It seems like they’ve been optimising their models for coding. That’s what the benchmarks used in the article suggest at least.

Who would lobby that? On the other hand there are a lot of entities that will lobby against this.

Maybe SWEs just can think better and see that there's nothing they can do, and to fight against this is useless. Artists still hope they can change this somehow, which is impossible, the people with money and datacenters want more money and don't really care about the people that are getting screwed over.

but if ollama is much slower, that's cutting on your fun and you'll be having better fun with a faster GUI

This is a complete scam. They didn’t even protect the API tokens, and when the author was informed that Moltbook exposes all API keys, they claimed they would tell the AI to fix it and he doesn't care.

it's a security nightmare. if you want to make it safe you have to take it's internet access away and don't give any write permissions - and now it's useless.

Sideloading is already painful. I tried installing Sora (which is not available in my region's Play Store). The phone didn't allow me to start the app (complaining about integrity) unless I disabled the Play Store Integrity Checks. It wasn't straightforward in saying what the problem is and how can I bypass the check.

Tax everything the company produces/profit more and reduce the tax on the human workers.

Russia would never trust US. Russia would never ally itself with US against China. What makes you think they will suddenly turn on their ally China, to side with US (their always-enemy)?

Economically, allying with Russia is stupid, they're poor. The only way they are making it through this war economy is the fact that Russian people are patient and are used to bad economy. The average anual salary in Russia is below $10K.

>We are not going to blow up the world to save Ukraine and Russia/Putin knows this. If he decides to use nukes what are we going to do? What can we do?

They are not going to risk their security for Ukraine. They wouldn't risk starting a nuclear war over Ukraine, it's stupid, even for their standards

Another movie recommendation web app. Long ago, I used Jinni, and I liked their labelling method a lot, categorising movies by mood, plot type, character types, etc. Then, Jinni was sold, disappeared and I wanted to create something similar. The Christmas days off I had the time and I started making it.

Copilot in VS Code has model options, the new agent is available in VSC Insiders that will implement full features and show it's changes in a diff viewer. Jetbrain IDEs don't have the option to change models
