SeriousMon Windows quality update: Progress we've made since March

> Second, a shared sense of pride. We want to be proud of what we build...

Yep, that's marketing. You don't care about your users.

SeriousMon Kimi K2.6 just beat Claude, GPT-5.5, and Gemini in a coding challenge

The ranking of gold medals only makes sense if all models would gave participate all tests.

DNP = Did not participate

In this regard, kimi got more and better medals than Claude.

SeriousMon DeepSeek V4—almost on the frontier

It really sounds like pi.dev

SeriousMon LLMs consistently pick resumes they generate over ones by humans or other models

That's why I let the LM write it's own AGENT.md or SAFESPOT.md because it "knows" best how to write it so it can resume next time without issues.

Is hits the same spot as that I would take other notes than anyone else and no one could follow them as easily than I do. Everyone leaves the "of course" parts out of the notes if it's for the own use.

SeriousMon The gay jailbreak technique (2025)

As old as the second trade ever done.

SeriousMon The gay jailbreak technique (2025)

I was about to share the joke with my team over ms teams and it was rejected by the system. Do we now have surveillance in default ms teams?

SeriousMon Copy Fail

I wonder if this is a problem for very old honeypods like the one on turris omnia, sold many years ago. Docker wasn't a thing these days and everything was done with lcx containers, if at all.

SeriousMon Men who stare at walls

No wonder despite the increasing AI pricing. People must find a way to handle the situation.

Did you noticed the Sri Yantra pattern in the Prajnaparamita article?

SeriousMon Men who stare at walls

For my clients I put it that way: The mind is like a search engine, it can find everything. So don't ask "what did I wrong" but instead "how can I progress".

Usually that's an eye opener.

SeriousMon Men who stare at walls

I put my phone in the safe until the vacation is over. And for the mind I do Sudoku at times and collect all my new ideas. It's like a harvest time!

SeriousMon GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing

And when you make your harness ask you for next steps in a tool call, the journey continues forever, yeehaa

SeriousMon Firefox added a free VPN in v150

50 GB per month free, no way to buy more in this free service.

> How does Mozilla handle my data?

> We collect technical data needed to provide, maintain, and ensure the performance and stability of the service, as well as interaction data to understand usage of the feature and help guide improvements. For example, we may log whether a connection succeeded or failed, or record that 2 GB of data was used on a certain day.

> Importantly, VPN never logs the websites you visit or the content of your communications.

SeriousMon Nev – keyboard focused GUI and terminal text editor

Wow, ok, that looks like vscode in the console, isn't it?

SeriousMon I am building a cloud

The other day I vibed a very stable codeserver (vscode in browser) instance with zellij browser mode (console in browser), syncthing (filesyncing), ssh, pi agent and wireguard. No exposed ports, every web frontend is password secured.

I don't want to make that public, it's my way of an isolated dev environment and it runs on my private raspberry behind my tv. Costs me nothing.

I hope you have a good success with your service.

SeriousMon We found a stable Firefox identifier linking all your private Tor identities

Or shut down and boot tails again. You need privacy? Take your time.

SeriousMon Show HN: I built a social media management tool in 3 weeks with Claude and Codex

Recently I built a "azure devops deployment central" tool just because microsoft is unable to make their ui usable at scale.

The tool shows all pipelines, builds, buildagents and approval ready in one place at a glance. For the most actions I use the public api but approval I use the internal api because they are still not public, since 4 years.

The tool runs so smooth it scares me too! My guess is that the apis are so stable that it will work for the next 10 years.

A third and very valid one is: You are in a nice he market, be very well connected and buried into customers process and your customer care more about you as a person/consultant/delivery than going though the hassle of replacing you.

SeriousMon Show HN: Waffle – Native macOS terminal that auto-tiles sessions into a grid

I'm on Windows and I would love to see such a easy solution for the windows terminal.

SeriousMon OpenClaw’s memory is unreliable, and you don’t know when it will break

Couldn't fitting solve the problem? That's what companies do: take a model as a base and train it on the specific data long enough so that it prefers the new data. Overfitting may be a thing but for personal use, I may want to have it work as I expected, every time.

SeriousMon Ask HN: What are you building that's not AI related?

Oh wow, that looks sooo awesome!

Why only mac? I would love to see Windows support! The girhub link in the header doesn't work, it's 404.

How does cloclo differ from pi-mono?

SeriousMon Rubysyn: Clarifying Ruby's Syntax and Semantics

> This is an experiment in clarifying some aspects of Ruby syntax and semantics. For that we're going to introduce an alternative Lisp-based syntax for Ruby, preserving Ruby semantics.

Lisp? Then I would use Lisp...

> The goal is to define a comprehensive, trivially-parsable and sugar-free syntax.

Ruby has syntax sugar, no need to remove the funny parts.

SeriousMon Decisions that eroded trust in Azure – by a former Azure Core engineer

Interesting! We're using AKS with huge success so far, but lately our Pods are unresponsive and we get 503 Gateway Timeouts that we really can't trace down. And don't get me started on Azure Blob Tables...
