<p>My understanding is that this is the limitation from Windows not from AMD SoC. There are several internet resources to "enable unified memory support" on linux eg [1].<p>As a side note, qualcomm chip set on Android has been doing this for years (like  Apple) so it's not super unique thing.

According to a government official, they explained to Calbee that there is a sufficient amount available in terms of total volume. Sources close to the Prime Minister expressed concern over the ripple effects, stating, "Calbee's reaction is an overreaction. Their announcement will cause other companies to become anxious as well." However, Calbee maintains its stance, with a public relations representative stating, "This is a measure to ensure the stable supply of our products."<p>So it's relatively mild "nudge", if you compare it to the current US administration.</p>

<p>Bad timing. Not only MB Neo, but also the memory price hike. Whole selling point is vanishing, plus other makers are getting momentum reacting to Neo, further shadowing the FW12's existence.<p>I hope they can come back with some update with newer chipset, either from Intel or Qualcomm. They were picking the worst Intel generation and I think it was mostly bad luck.</p>

<p>> Prompts are shorter than SWE-Bench Pro's but still longer than how developers actually message agents. Behavioral verification needs some minimum specificity to know what surface to test against, which puts a floor on how terse a prompt can be before the test becomes ambiguous.<p>It'll be tricky to automate the verification with a vague prompt. In other words, the SWE's job these days is to be a intelligent verifier.</p>

<p>I suspect it's mostly about setting the expectation. They don't want to give up the control, they don't make it "free" (although it virtually is). Both are possible with open source but it would need a lot of explanation. Being closed makes it more natural.</p>

<p>Pi (pi.dev) is fine. I'm using it with DS v4 right now. It's not close to Claude code but I think that's the point.<p>By the way OpenRouter version is very slow for some reason. DeepSeek platform is faster (and cheaper with the discount) if you don't mind passing the credit card number / email to this company.</p>
