Where’s the Pro 200 for business tier?

The highest is Pro 100 and it’s useless for codex.

Astra requires multiple turns and fresh refactoring agents to produce good code.

Fable 5.1/Opus 5.5 isn’t different, but the first cut is better quality.

Astra is a whole order of magnitude cheaper than Fable, and the Anthropic usage limits are ridiculous. Layers on layers of limits that constantly trip.

We don’t really use Sol because Astra X High is cheap. Some have mentioned regressions but we haven’t noticed any with Astra.

Does that scale? Does a photo of a photo have antigravity.

Every time we fit out an office building we cover it 100% in cameras, both internally and externally.

Fact is, stuff happens. For example: we once had a crazed person run inside and start yelling profanities at people for no reason. Then, he denied it and reported us to the police for assaulting him. He got his girlfriend to act as a fake witness.

Having the cameras was a no brainer for legally protecting my staff, we could just pull the footage and show that no one touched him.

Similar protections for when male and female staff are working together alone. They are both protected from false accusations, one from harming the other, and the other from potentially false reports/blackmail that they attempted to do something.

We’ve caught interns stealing petty cash from people’s wallets (before cameras - caught in the act)

Is it sad? Yes. But it’s the world we live in and cameras are cheap. No such smaller incidents since the cameras went up. People behave better when they’re being watched, or at least they think we’re being watched. Nobody has actually watched the footage for months and it rolls over in about a week.

No, not for a VPS. They are configured at the web server. If you mean CDN, you might be able to use a _headers file or similar to add. Cloudflare can definitely do it.

For important issues like security - just break the web, it will adjust.

It’s ridiculous that the answer to a secure web is for everyone to sprinkle the magic salt and not something on the browser side

I understand the need to make money, but hardly any open source software is free anymore even if you host it yourself. And this one doesn’t list the price which feels kinda cagey (get a license links to book a sales call).

It’s nice that it’s open source, thank you. I just wish that Mattermost et al didn’t open Pandora’s box with this one.

Yes.

Most Australians dislike social media. We are underrepresented on it, and it shovels the US’s issues down our throat. The current algorithms mainly send us US political propaganda and things that are supposed to make us hate nearby Asian powers like China.

Yeah the model has to be small, so need to do as much pre processing for it as possible I guess. It essentially doesn’t have any reasoning, so the reasoning would need to be input context (list of things that need to be done, resource shortfall or items needed or whatever) and assuming that you might run this once per second per NPC, it would need to be teeny tiny, maybe 0.3B or smaller.

I hope these get small and good enough to create “pet like” AIs for games. You know, like scream “follow me” at an NPC, STT stack translates it and feeds it to a local Jev-like model that then picks a number of things for the NPC to do.

Stay the hell away from spooky stuff like psychics and tarot readers - the more you don’t believe in it, the better.

But better again that you do believe, and know that these are not harmless fun, but that there are dark and hidden and evil things in this world to stay away from.

Sorry but can’t take it seriously with the insane amount of pop up ads.

If it can’t figure out how to render the page then we don’t really want its weights tbh, it can keep those to itself

Yes, I use LM Studio with MLX support, which is specifically faster on M series Macs. I am not sure if llama is the same, but I guess what I’m saying is if you want the performance to be good on M series you have to use models packaged in the right format.

It can play doom in realtime so maybe it can play this.

Gemma 30B with 256K context runs at 20 tok/sec on my M3 Max with 128GB RAM so I think there’s something wrong with your setup. This should run at ~30-40 toks. Maybe your inference engine is not optimised for Mac.

Neat. This is pretty close to what I’d be looking for, if I could really afford to pull the trigger on something like this (realistically I can’t - iMessage on laptop is too important for work).

If it natively plugged into the Apple ecosystem, now that would be difficult to refuse.

1) If you want to make Claude usable how about addressing the fact that OpenAI 20x lasts all day on Astra, yet Claude 20x pips out in 20 mins of agentic with Fable 5.1, which is totally useless.

And unlike Sol: Opus like yoda, anything for unusable he is.

2) The first AI company to reduce their token pricing such that Astra/Fable can run for less than $150/day from credits would see a 5x usage increase and 20x spend increase from me. It’s currently around $500 for Astra and $5000 for Claude.

3) They seem to recently have addressed the fact that their safeguards were OTT so kudos to them for realising and now Fable is usable for wire and memory level programming.

All the servers I’ve ever bought came with iDRAC or something like it, which has KVM built in.

I am a huge advocate of this kind of app paradigm:

It’s now really easy to spin a terminal emulator and make cross platform terminal apps that work the same on Windows, macOS and Linux regardless of users terminal. You can also make sure the term sends everything required to make the app “nice”, like mouse hover events.

I started using this paradigm for some of my own company’s apps around 3 months ago because it was neat to allow the app to spawn DWM windows for sub windows, dialogs etc. but the app can also fall back to standard TTY for using over SSH or from within a docker or any other terminal. Also, using your own terminal window gives proper taskbar integration (stacking windows) and you can set your own app name/icon.

(It’s possible to 1-shot this in Python using the prompt “use ghostling as a reference, write a terminal emulator in Python using raylib and libghostty that hosts my app” and the first pass was around half the speed of Ghostty.)

Can’t even load it.

You don’t need resend anymore, email is CF native.

Yeah GitHub repos need screenshots.

You kind of said everything but nothing all at once. If not Google then where?

It’s not that bad though. I expected way worse. If Robin Hobbs wrote it, I’d barely lift a brow.

I guess it’s not faster than using a table for CRC8?

I find Astra to be weirdly stupid in the sense you have to force it to spend time on something (fix this architectural issue and refactor), then it’s stupidly smart.

It prioritises getting something working over making something good during the 1-shot phase and outputs maximum slop.

Would be good to include Fable and Opus. Based on the results with Astra vs GLM (not even in the same ballpark), these are probably the realistic alternatives to consider.

How are they gonna do email without Outlook Mail servers.
