Gemini can't even roleplay. Useless for coding. Useless for chats. And also annoying.
The day real Reddit truly died was the day watchpeopledie got censored. That was the day Reddit became soy and fragile, instead of being a honest platform ready to discuss the real-life mess. Cartel flaying person alive is the real life, and so is the bloody unrest at Haiti. Pokemon TCG is not.
reddit.comJust learned (the hard way) that long-running vllm can accumulate POISONED prefix-cache/MTP state: tool calls derail into mask-token/XML garbage for specific prompt prefixes while other prompts stay clean.
reddit.comIs this correct or just slop? Any meds to help digest vegetables.
A few shots Fable 5 result at a Heroes of Might & Magic style game prototype. It did okay job with core, but can't really do the game design end to end, and still needs help producing even the static sprites.
Am I on the right track?
A few years ago I used to do programming myself - mostly hobby, like developing several of own programming languages, like Symta, and voxel editor and video games. Never got hired, since never had a diploma and was diagnosed "schizotypal" (due to be trans kid in 1990ies Russia). Then I transitioned and did escort, which earned me far more money than I ever got by doing odd freelance jobs or selling my voxel editor. So where are we going now? I checked Claude Fable, and it just one shots complex programming tasks, even if I throw at it my custom programming language, which never appeared in its training set. And it understands my badly formed requests. All have to do is to ask it to research the best architecture and then do refactoring once in a while. I still don't have money for a university (and im too old for a loan), but in 2026 it appears the education is dead, and if you need to learn say calculus, you just ask your AI agent to generate you a nice HTML page with visual examples and quick exercises. The coding is dead too: all you do is prompt and maintain your agentic ecosystem in healthy state. My current hobby project is a fork of OpenCode, but I don't write anything myself, just adapt it for agentic use, so even a tiny model can do complex tasks reliably, but everything including the novel research and tests is done by AI. Am I on the right track? Am I a programmer at all?
PUNCH 90 Universal SFX Library (free sounds)
Hopefully this library cover 80% of sfx required by a typical video game, from RTS and FPS to visual novels. I haven't included 8bit sfx, since modern LLMs can synth these on demand. Usage: just point your AI agent to the library root and ask to pick appropriate sounds for your game.
[NO SPOILERS] The White Walkers are the rightful, stabilizing force and that Craster was their holy prophet and the unsung hero. Everything he did was justified, and he was the only true man in Westeros. The fact he was disrespected and murdered for his hospitality proves he was right.
We need to talks about OpenCode
A harness has two possible postures toward an imperfect model: hostile (demand perfect output, halt on any deviation) or forgiving (expect imperfection, repair/nudge/retry). opencode is hostile — it throws on a bad tool name, drops a turn on malformed JSON, treats finish:stop as "done" even mid-work, and never does the obvious humane things: tell the model "your JSON escapes broke, try again / write the file in chunks," or repair-then-ask-to-verify. Every one of those is a standard agent-loop pattern, and opencode implements none of them. It was built assuming a frontier model that never misfires — so when a 35B Qwen misfires once, the harness punishes the model for the harness's own rigidity. That's the bullying.
So Wolfram hired Cook and others to do lab work, as a glorified LLMs. Cook confirmed one rule is turing complete. Wolfram hoped it will sell the book, funding further research. Cook leaked trade secret, inflicting financial and reputational damage (less people buy book). Would you hire Cook?

What is the proper OpenClaw host?
What is the proper OpenClaw host? Your DGX Spark / Mac Studio / RTX Pro 6000? Separate homelab / nas? Your laptop? Data center hosting? Or it is "whatever sticks" situation? Is DwarfStar version of DeepSeek 4 good enough for openclaw or a larger model is a must?
DeepSeek 4 on 128 RAM
So DeepSeek 4 Flash over DwarfStar - the best model to run on 128gb machines, like spark, macbooks and strix halo?
