His articles forever changed how I view terminal diseases and my stance on how to manage them.

If I ever get such a disease, I have it in writing with my family that I will not seek any treatment after the first recommendation, I will not do experimental treatments and I will not prolong a life of suffering. Rather go out under my own terms.

I'm forever grateful to Jake for writing his experiences in such detail and candidness.

What is a "true recomp"? If it works as the original did, then it's a recompilation no matter the author.

You may not like that the author is mostly an LLM, but the output clearly works.

Well, the whole point of the demo was showing that transforming from game state to text to action is so quick with Jev that it can play in real time.

So no, the other models cannot play in real time. Hence why this is interesting.

For any body of text (or in general, any exposition of any kind), the responsibility to explain the value of the article is very much in the author's side.

Explaining the value of what you are showing should always go towards the start. Else, why would anyone bother with the rest?

A 1 second head start is good enough.

Generating images not by pixels but by code and instructions is niche to you?

Many, many people immigrate for an imagination of what life in the US will be. Objectively speaking, the US really is far behind most of the developed world in standards of living .

Also, money. Salaries are simply higher in the US (even if life is worse and less fulfilling overall)

Agreed. This will likely never ship with all the bloat. Custom AI model, custom OS, extremely custom architecture (2 "main" processors running independently...), barely reuses any of the previous work from Flipper Zero.

Man, they put 2 processors in the thing and are building their own OS. They even say they are not sure how to get it accomplished.

Scope creep to hell and back. Could just let the device get turned off like literally any other device on earth, and not have to build a whole new fucking OS to get it running.

They even - for some reason - want to waste time "training their own AI model because general ones don't cut it" (which no one is likey to use). Could just build a normal RAG + context stuffing pipeline in an afternoon but nah, let's devote a few months to this completely unnecessary non-feature.

100 bucks say this doesn't see the light of day before 2030 (if it ever does!)

To be fair, the traffic you had was mostly routed by them as well. Google giveth, Google taketh away.

salomonk_mur — Sun, 29 Mar 2026 16:54:57 +0000

I'm surprised at the effectiveness of simple PoW to stop practically all activity.

I'll implement Anubis at low difficulty for all my projects and leave a decent llms.txt referenced in my sitemap and robots.txt so LLMs can still get relevant data for my site while.keeping bad bots out. I'm getting thousands of requests from China that have really increased costs, glad it seems the fix is rather easy.

There is no such thing. All new ideas are derived from previous experiences and concepts.

salomonk_mur — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 00:59:22 +0000

The main issue isn't about the reports being copy-pasted - it's about they are created with no audit ever being done.

You literally paid to get your cert without ever getting audited.
