As a linux desktop user, I would buy it only if I can wipe ChromeOS out of it.

I guess it's just mobile chip and everything AI related connects directly to google services through internet.

I also tried. Only service I use is s3 for personal backup. I pay around 15 cents per month.

I have been telling this to my team that 1000 lines of instructions are deemed to fail no matter how great of instruction following capability of a model. I have been reviewing hundreds of line changes daily basis for about a month. I couldn’t help becoming a prayer.

sbinnee — Mon, 04 May 2026 14:02:01 +0000

After some time replacing gemini 3 flash preview with deepseek v4 flash for a chat model, the biggest difference is the auto reasoning effort. Gemini flash is super fast and perfect for a chat model. But when I need some thought experiments with a handful of constraints, it struggles a bit and I switch to sonnet. But with deepseek v4 flash, it can do long complex reasoning and it gets things often right. Generating a lot of reasoning tokens means that it takes a lot of time of course. But I am happy to find a cheaper model and excited to try something other than gemini flash. Gemini flash has been so good that I was locked on it for a while.

GitHub has become a place where you seek people’s attention. There are other places you can freely host your projects. GitLab was always available. I just haven’t logged in for I don’t know how long. An open source project is essentially a show window to the internet by a lonely developer. Ghostty has already established a great community. It’s already on display on a skyscraper. The project is mature enough that it needs a dedicated discussion forum or something like that. I am excited to see where it will find home and how it will evolve.

In Korean, we have an adjective "푸르다". It is somewhere between blue and green. You can say trees are that, oceans are that. It also means unripe.

Yeah, so to me, tortoise is definitely blue.

Edit: typo tortoise -> turquoise

I chuckled. I'd love to try out typst when the time comes. But for writing a journal paper, it's still going to be latex.

Price is appealing to me. I have been using gemini 3 flash mainly for chat. I may give it a try.

input: $0.14/$0.28 (whereas gemini $0.5/$3)

Does anyone know why output prices have such a big gap?

sbinnee — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 21:48:08 +0000

I don’t think I ever heard you said excellent for the pelican test. It looks excellent indeed!

The trend went to MoE model for some times and this time around is dense model again. I wonder if closed models are also following this trend: MoE for faster ones and dense for pro model.

The comment section is already long, but I knew that I could found comments about "hmm" that I started noticing. Yes, it is so irritating to me too. Also, one additional thing I noticed was that verbose information has been more and more being obfuscated. I run CC with --verbose option for months, and I can see verbose mode is not verbose anymore. I wish I can do -vvv maximum verbose mode.

I was going to try hermes agent after hearing OpenClaw constantly breaks and this hermes buzz is a better one. I t all sounds a lot of maintenance work.

It looked cool, and I thought that it might be a new community where articles belong to this site. But when I clicked two articles, Seoul and Singapore, both were behind paywalls. So it seems it's just an aggregation of internet articles it seems?

sbinnee — Tue, 14 Apr 2026 03:27:44 +0000

Though I also customize my tmux setup, the best way to use tmux is just to learn and remember the basics. Once you change the prefix bind or any other basic binds, you will have hard time on a new machine.

Btw, you can place tmux config at ~/.config/tmux/tmux.cong. No reason to clutter home dir.

I love this kind of project. I am pretty sure the developer had a Wii console sitting around somewhere and thought about how to make it useful again. Wait, I have a PS2 sitting around somewhere…

New comment by sbinnee in "GitHub Stacked PRs"

sbinnee — Tue, 14 Apr 2026 03:17:56 +0000

Is this going to be a part of triage task? If so, it makes sense. Whether a human developer or an AI made a big PR, AI goes review it and if necessary makes stacked PRs. I don’t see any human contributors using this feature to be honest because it’s an extra work and they should have found a better way to suggest a large PR.

New comment by sbinnee in "European AI. A playbook to own it"

sbinnee — Mon, 13 Apr 2026 02:09:10 +0000

I lived and studied in France. So it's only natural for me to try out Mistral's every major updates. I had the same sentiment with you, that their models were just a bit lagging. But on the other hand, I understand their shift. Their value is not in SOTA coding, math, or puzzle solving performance in my opinion. They will catch up. To me it makes sense that they focus on something else, how to scale through talents and propagate their models with policies in Europe.

New comment by sbinnee in "South Korea introduces universal basic mobile data access"

sbinnee — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 23:10:54 +0000

Crazy even to me, a Korean. I just woke up and saw this news on HN. Over the years I watched the price of data was going down drastically in Korea. I had always complained that data in France was much cheaper like 30gb for 10 eur. Then when I came back after around the end of pandemic, the price of data in Korea was actually quite cheap.

Do I know why? No idea. The article alluded fast AI adoption but even senior Korean citizens are all addicted to youtube videos. Soon they will start using AI. Young people are already heavily using AI for everything. So I don’t think it’s for AI adoption.

The recent hacking incidence was a big one, true. But the price had been going down even before.

It is fair to think so because that is what everyone is doing. But being Meta and considering Llama, if MSL is going to keep releasing models and wants to join back the AI war, they may actually open weights just to get more attention. Once they establish a sizable community, they can start guarding their frontier models.

> but you can try it out today on meta.ai (Facebook or Instagram login required).

I guess I will have to wait. I hope at least soon it will be available on Openrouter. Overall, I am really excited to try it out.
