redrove··on Show HN: Rmux – A programmable terminal multiplexer with a Playwright-style SDK
I’m genuinely interested in what you find to be the problem with that?

It’s a landing page.

redrove··on Show HN: Mezz, a curl-able WiFi sandbox for IoT pentesting
curl | bash and pentesting go well together
redrove··on Reverse engineering Android malware from popular Chinese projectors
I’m immediately suspicious of cheap chinese crap like this.

$35 for a projector should cause you to raise at least one eyebrow.

Also, as always with “IoT” type devices, they’re best kept in an isolated VLAN with no internet access.

redrove··on GPT-5.5 Price Increase: What It Costs
What coding plans are you using that let you use those models specifically and not pay per token? Which provider?

cool!
redrove··on Ask HN: Does Claude use 'prior' in a Bayesian sense more than English?
Nothing, but he got to plug his vibe coded startup that he advertises in the about section.
redrove··on Mistral Medium 3.5
It’s 128b dense model. Good luck getting more than 3t/s out of a mac. It doesn’t matter if it fits or not.

Yes I'm on ChatGPT Pro (OAuth) and I'm trying to use gpt-5.5-xhigh.

That was the issue, 5.4 works just fine.

Support for service: priority (GPT /fast mode) would also be cool!

I keep trying to use dirac-cli with codex and it won't work: Error: Codex API error: Codex API request failed: 400.

Any ideas?

This is very well put. Thanks for the comment.
redrove··on DeepSeek v4
It seems to be 160GB at mixed FP4+FP8 precision, FYI. Full FP8 is 250GB+. (B)F16 at around double I would assume.

redrove··on Anthropic says OpenClaw-style Claude CLI usage is allowed again
I underscored using xhigh + fast mode when saying it’s so much better.

Now with Opus 4.7 of course the “burden” of adjusting reasoning effort has been taken away from you even at the API level.

In my experience people don’t change the thinking level at all.

redrove··on Anthropic says OpenClaw-style Claude CLI usage is allowed again
I’ve been using Codex Pro since they lobotomized Opus 4.6. Codex is so much better, GPT 5.4 xhigh fast is definitely the smartest and fastest model available.

For a while there I had both Opus 4.6 and Codex access and I frequently pitted them against each other, I never once saw Opus come out ahead. Opus was good as a reviewer though, but as an implementer it just felt lazy compared to 5.4 xhigh.

One feature that I haven’t seen discussed that much is how codex has auto-review on tool runs. No longer are you a slave to all or nothing confirmations or endless bugging, it’s such a bad pattern.

Even in a week of heavy duty work and personal use I still haven’t been able to exhaust the usage on the $200 plan.

I’ll probably change my mind when (not IF) OpenAI rug pull, but for spring ‘26, codex is definitely the better deal.

Yes. You could also look at the README.md.

redrove··on April 2026 TLDR Setup for Ollama and Gemma 4 26B on a Mac mini
There is virtually no reason to use Ollama over LM Studio or the myriad of other alternatives.

Ollama is slower and they started out as a shameless llama.cpp ripoff without giving credit and now they “ported” it to Go which means they’re just vibe code translating llama.cpp, bugs included.

redrove··on Claude Code's source code has been leaked via a map file in their NPM registry
Not necessarily; I would very much like to use those features on a Linux server. Currently the Anthropic implementation forces a desktop (or worse, a laptop) to be turned on instead of working headless as far as I understand it.

I’ll give clappie a go, love the theme for the landing page!

redrove··on What if AI doesn't need more RAM but better math?
I disagree. I think a sharp drop in memory requirements of at least an order of magnitude will cause demand to adjust accordingly.
redrove··on Tell HN: Litellm 1.82.7 and 1.82.8 on PyPI are compromised
I just deployed it to test it out and this is FALSE. I was able to create Virtual Keys on the free version with no issues.

Please do a double take on the facts, you might falsely deter people.

How would this ever work with a whitelist? did you even read the post?

>I am unable to understand how it compromised your account itself from the exploit at trivvy being used in CI/CD as well.

Token in CI could've been way too broad.

redrove··on Tell HN: Litellm 1.82.7 and 1.82.8 on PyPI are compromised
>1. Looks like this originated from the trivvy used in our ci/cd

Were you not aware of this in the short time frame that it happened in? How come credentials were not rotated to mitigate the trivy compromise?

redrove··on Tell HN: Litellm 1.82.7 and 1.82.8 on PyPI are compromised
First line of defense is the git host and artifact host scrape the malware clean (in this case GitHub and Pypi).

Domains might get added to a list for things like 1.1.1.2 but as you can imagine that has much smaller coverage, not everyone uses something like this in their DNS infra.

Not to mention the non-idempotent python + bash + ssh hell of Ansible, or awful DSLs such as Salt, Puppet, Chef, etc.
