reckless··on There Are Magic Hexagons of Every Order
hexagons are the bestagons
reckless··on Kimi-K3 Technical Report [pdf]
I think the licensing that would likely apply to a company that's able to afford ~$6M rack and the associated infrastructure muddies this somewhat
reckless··on Qwen 3.8
5.6-sol would be a better comparison given it's general availability and usage allowances
reckless··on Comparing Fable and 10 other LLMs on refactoring a LangGraph god node
Takeaways Which model to use for generating architecture.

The simpler the decision you need to make, the more readily you can just take a proposal from Fable or GPT-5.5. And now that Fable is unavailable outside the US, the choice between Opus and GPT is far from obvious. As a quick default I'd lean toward GPT.

reckless··on Stop wasting tokens and re explaining your project between sessions
Doesn't Claude have memories like Codex?
reckless··on Claude Opus 4.8
No way is Muse Spark generally better than offerings from Google and OpenAI. I actually find arena to be amongst the most useless indicators
reckless··on Claude Code refuses requests or charges extra if your commits mention "OpenClaw"
Codex has been great for me
reckless··on We do not think Anthropic should be designated as a supply chain risk
It's lawful use with specific laws called out though? New laws won't supercede what is agreed in the contract at the time of signing.
reckless··on We do not think Anthropic should be designated as a supply chain risk
Anthropic wants to enforce them via language of the contracts and take a hands off approach. OpenAI has a contract that is paired with humans in the room (FDEs) that can pull the plug.
reckless··on Show HN: Helium Browser for Android with extensions support, based on Vanadium
For people looking for a more vanilla experience I'm publishing Google's official extension supporting Chromium builds for Android here https://github.com/andrewginns/chromium-browser-snapshots-An...

Combined Obtainium it's easy to keep it updated. https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium

reckless··on Mistral Releases Deep Research, Voice, Projects in Le Chat
The aggregate picture only tells you so much.

Sites like simonwillison.net/2025/jul/ and channels like https://www.youtube.com/@aiexplained-official also cover new model releases pretty quickly for some "out of the box thinking/reasoning" evaluations.

For me and my usage I can really only tell if I start using the new model for tasks I actually use them for.

My personal benchmark andrew.ginns.uk/merbench has full code and data on GitHub if you want a staring point!

reckless··on Chatbox: Cross-platform desktop client for ChatGPT, Claude and other LLMs
Been a long time user of Chatbox as my Android client of choice. The recent web search update has been fantastic!
reckless··on Perplexica: Open-source Perplexity alternative
Looks similar to what I've been using for a few weeks https://github.com/miurla/morphic
reckless··on LLaMA now goes faster on CPUs
Does this also count platform costs or just chip cost? I'd imagine the threadripper motherboard and ram costs aren't insignificant
reckless··on Ask HN: What cool desk ideas do you have for a home office?
They do a 55" curved one called the Samsung odyssey ark
reckless··on Running a 180B parameter LLM on a single Apple M2 Ultra
Indeed they do, however companies like Meta (altruistically or not) are preventing OpenAI from building 'moats' by releasing models and architecture details in a very public way.
reckless··on Paperlike Color: Color E-Ink Monitor
True but what you can do is SSH to the device and install a custom launcher for apps that can read standard epubs, play chess, or expose the linux terminal on device.

Not great for basic users but I've had significantly more use out of it with some advanced setup.

reckless··on Meta says its new speech-generating AI tool is too dangerous to release
Take a look at Piper. It's the tts solution used by the open source home automation project HomeAssistant. Produces decent quality speech in a couple seconds on raspberry pi class hardware.
reckless··on AMD EPYC 97x4 “Bergamo” CPUs: 128 Zen 4c CPU Cores for Servers, Shipping Now
It's fascinating how they managed to reclaim so much die area by dropping the cache and optimising for low (~3GHz) frequency.
reckless··on Show HN: ReRender AI - Realistic Architectural Renders for AutoCAD/Blender Users
I'd recommend Sweethome3D to trace the floorplan and then you can export it as a .obj to a program like Twinmotion to do visualisation and lighting with pathtracing etc.
reckless··on DeepFloyd IF: open-source text-to-image model
Seems to be entirely a different approach for diffusion.

>DeepFloyd IF works in pixel space. The diffusion is implemented on a pixel level, unlike latent diffusion models (like Stable Diffusion), where latent representations are used.

reckless··on Show HN: Tracking my local bus with a RaspberryPi
I'd definitely recommend you use homeassistant as a front-end for this. You can then update a 'sensor' using an mqtt message.
reckless··on Building the Future of TensorFlow
I feel like the comments on backwards compatibility are due to the absolute shitshow of TF2 compatibility for TF1 code and models.

Also the threat of Pytorch can be seen when reading between the lines, especially since it's now run by a foundation and the darling of the diffusion model developments.

reckless··on Running Stable Diffusion on Your GPU with Less Than 10Gb of VRAM
Would be great to be able to utilise outpainting to generate larger images in smaller tiles at full precision.
reckless··on Why Is AVX 512 Useful for RPCS3?
I wonder if we see more of an adoption now that Zen 4 is confirmed to have AVX-512 support.
reckless··on Why Is AVX 512 Useful for RPCS3?
TL;DR is that AVX-512 provides >20% speedup compared to AVX2

It's a shame that intel isn't including AVX-512 on the 13th gen Raptor Lake consumer CPUs, and the newer skews of 12th gen like the KS processors have it fused off.

reckless··on Show HN: All Clear Weather – creating new live weather datasets with ML
Are you also planning on open sourcing thr algorithms you're using to process the data? I'd be interested in helping out on the ML side for any sensor fusion or image classification.
