<p>WinForms was a decent successor of Delphi, after that gui lib designers dropped the ball completely and eventually got eaten by React.</p>

<p>For me this proof was always a cautionary tale about being careful about recursion when you use any language.<p>It's the same thing as with set theory. Once you let yourself talk about sets of sets without any restrictions other than the language itself puts on what you are talking about, you'll end up with sort of contradictory recursion that ends up in a paradox. The message is not "set theory is incomplete, or invalid" but rather "we were a bit too cavalier with words and not everything we can say about sets makes sense just because it's grammatically correct so we need to be more careful about defining what a set is and what it can and cannot contain".<p>For me "provability" is a direct equivalent of unrestricted sets of sets. If you don't restrict what provability means and how it can be used in context of the rest of math you end up with contradictory recursion that makes you believe there are true but unprovable things. It's easier to spot how bonkers it is on sets because there you end up with a set that is and isn't its own element at the same time (because sets are so generic that can produce paradoxical recursion on themselves without any other concept involved), but things being unprovable and true at the same time is the same category of absurdity.</p>

<p>Luna is the smallest variant of gpt-5.6 from openai and it seems to beat Gemini Flash 3.7 on DeepSWE benchmark (which is one of the new coding benchmarks that people find more relevant to their daily work than old, saturated and gambled benchmarks). It beats it massively on cost and by a bit on quality.</p>

<p>I don't know why you'd want to burden your laptop with a large model. But I can totally see a new "developer workstation" product that's just a semi-large box that's optimized for running frontier open weights models for one to few users.</p>

<p>Also similar to ZCode, Codex (now called ChatGPT) and many private projects that people make for themselves and publish in few days. At least superficially similar.<p>Deepseek Harness supposedly has nice plugin system which others do mostly lack.</p>

<p>I don't really like about 98% wheels other people made. Usually they do almost what I want and their UX is horrible. And people asked about how could I get the missing parts gleefully respond that I shouldn't want that. And when I'm bothered by UI they say it's fine and it doesn't matter. I'm not completely unique but being cut to size hurts.</p>

<p>I'm using McDonalds completely differently. I come in, I sit, I order on my phone, have fun on my phone while I wait, they deliver food to my table, I'm eating and having fun on my phone, when I have enough of food and fun I get up, carry the tray to where it supposed to go and get out. I don't care about the wait times as long as the order eventually arrives. I don't care about interactions with the employees. "Bon appetit" is even a bit too much. Perfection would be if the whole interaction was limited to my "Thank you!" when the food arrives.<p>But current system is close to perfection for me.</p>

<p>Competitors release multpile models and their curves reflect reasoning effort of each single model.<p>Gemini doesn't have adjustable  reasoning effort (at least on the graph) so each of its curves is just one point.</p>

<p>It's modular by default so you can experiment freely, in-session. If you don't like some plugin you built, just disable it and move on. No need for tracking changes, reverting and so on if you keep your plugins focused.</p>

<p>> it adds hot-reload and dynamic enable/dispose capabilities to a plugin system, like the one in Pi agents, though they push the boundaries further, to the UI components and so on.<p>That actually sounds amazing.</p>

<p>If everything is a plugin it means plugins can do everything.<p>AI can write custom plugins for you. So this means the tool is infinitely flexible for you, even without any community.<p>Compare this to Zed where I can't make a hexviewer for binary files or player for audio files for myself without recompiling Zed's source code.</p>
