justindotdevon Show HN: terminal-code – VS Code inside the terminal

just use neovim :)

similar to what a person is capable of. we cant be good at everything, we're specialists; backend engineers, frontend developers, machine learning engineers, etc... as in design, it cannot appeal to every eye, being opinionated makes good design stand out.

justindotdevon Claude Opus 5

> . Opus 4.8 served as fallback on safety-classifier refusals for Opus 5 and Fable 5.

ffs just keep it man.

justindotdevon The gap between open weights LLMs and closed source LLMs

at first glance, these graphs are confusing

justindotdevon Open source AI must win

we could've been fine with the sole existence of AI if the organizations providing them weren't greedy and rug-pullers. anthropic could've been loved by all if it acted towards the benefit of humanity. as intelligent system continue to become smarter, close or beyond mythos level, what now? with the 'community-driven' mindset we have, is the future really going to be safe? probably not we just need a company that develops, serves, maintains, these models the right way, priced fairly that benefits the user and the company.

justindotdevon Chuwi Minibook X

used of one these and its terrible. out of all the laptops i have used this one has by far the worst build quality. the hinge is just horrible and snaps in half after a few months of use.

i also removed windows and installed omarchy and one of the speakers does not work. :( and no its not a skill issue. tried every solution and nothing works. check reddit for the user reviews on literally every product from this brand. you'll understand my frustration.

justindotdevon Show HN: Find the best local LLM for your hardware, ranked by benchmarks

it'd be nice if it had igpu support, it cant even detect it. overall great tool though. happy this exists.

justindotdevon Localsend: An open-source cross-platform alternative to AirDrop

came with omarchy pre installed, usedd it ever since. bonus points for it being open source too. i was surprised it is written in flutter. looking at how mutli-platform it is, flutter was the more appealing choice.

justindotdevon Opus 4.7 to 4.6 Inflation is ~45%

i think it is quite clear that staying with opus 4.6 is the way to go, on top of the inflation, 4.7 is quite... dumb. i think they have lobotomized this model while they were prioritizing cybersecurity and blocking people from performing potentially harmful security related tasks.

justindotdevon OpenCode – Open source AI coding agent

why is this trending, we've been using it since its beta

justindotdevon Cursor Composer 2 is just Kimi K2.5 with RL

im pretty sure this is in violation of moonshot's ToS. this is going to be fun to watch unfold

justindotdevon Programmers and software developers lost the plot on naming their tools

i think you are misunderstanding the point. with awk, sed, grep they actually hold relevance to the tools whereas a file browser named "zephrus" holds no connection to the actual file browser.
