schneehertz··on More than 100k people in Japan are now aged 100 or older
Even if Japan believes that spending money on young people is more appropriate than extending the lives of the elderly by a few years, the decision should absolutely not be to purchase large numbers of American fighter jets, but rather to use the funds to improve the birth rate, build infrastructure, transition to green energy, and support domestic industrial productivity. I cannot understand what purchasing fighter jets can do for Japan. Japan has in fact completely handed over its military sovereignty to the United States, and buying fighter jets is essentially just giving the United States a blood transfusion.

schneehertz··on Pi's Minimalism Is Its Advantage
Just install Pi and start using it directly, no extensions needed for Pi to get the job done.

Only when you genuinely find a feature is missing should you write one yourself or have Pi write an extension or skill for you.

Don't use extensions written by others, after all, those extensions were also vibe-coded.

openrouter’s API has removed parameters specific to certain models, impairing model functionality.

For example, the image generation parameters of GPT-image-2 are largely ineffective.

schneehertz··on DeepSeek v4

schneehertz··on ChatGPT Images 2.0
Generating a 4096x4096 image with gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview consumes 2,520 tokens, which is equivalent to $0.151 per image.

Generating a 3840x2160 image with gpt-image-2 consumes 13,342 tokens, which is equivalent to $0.4 per image.

This model is more than twice as expensive as Gemini.

Wouldn't it be better to use verified medicine? Even if a patient could see a doctor at any time, the doctor would not prescribe such unverified peptides to the patient

schneehertz··on The staff ate it later
Mencius, a thinker from over 300 BC, once said: "A gentleman, in his attitude towards animals, having seen them alive, cannot bear to see them die; having heard their cries, cannot bear to eat their flesh. Therefore, a gentleman keeps his distance from the kitchen."

The background of this statement is as follows: King Xuan of Qi once saw a man leading an ox to be slaughtered. Moved by the ox's sorrowful appearance, he was deeply distressed and ordered the butcher to spare the ox. However, the butcher informed him that the ox was intended for sacrificial rites. It must be noted that in ancient times, the two most important affairs of the state were sacrifices and warfare. Sparing the ox would have violated the moral principles of the time. In desperation, King Xuan came up with the idea: "Why not replace this ox with a sheep?" Later, the more he reflected on it, the more absurd he found his own decision. He then sought advice from Mencius, who uttered this statement in response.

Mencius believed that what distinguishes humans from beasts is humanity, meaning that humans treat all things with kindness, but human goodness is limited. Therefore, a gentleman practices kindness by helping those in front of him, unable to extend it to all.

schneehertz··on Japan has opened its first osmotic power plant
The freshwater used in this osmotic power plant is produced by a wastewater treatment plant, and the high-salinity water used is the wastewater generated by a seawater desalination plant So, if the freshwater produced by wastewater treatment plants is further processed into usable freshwater to replace the freshwater produced by seawater desalination plants, soon one water treatment plant could replace both the seawater desalination plant and the osmotic power plant, reducing steps. I believe this would greatly improve efficiency

Github Copilot's Edit mode allows you to manually specify the context, and it runs only once each time to write code with diff checking, without entering a agent loop.
schneehertz··on Coding with LLMs in the summer of 2025 – an update
The edit mode of GitHub Copilot requires manually providing context files and does not have RAG or other agent tools. I think this mode is much easier to use than the agent mode.

schneehertz··on Magistral — the first reasoning model by Mistral AI
This is deepseek-r1's answer:

```

Based on the Schengen Area rules for international travel:

Lisbon (Portugal) - Immigration clearance is required here. Since Lisbon is the first point of entry into the Schengen Area (and Brazil is outside Schengen), the passenger must clear immigration (passport control) in Lisbon. This is standard for all non-Schengen arrivals.

Paris (France) - No immigration clearance is needed. After clearing immigration in Lisbon, the onward flight to Paris is considered a domestic Schengen flight (no border checks within Schengen).

schneehertz··on Intellect-2 Release: The First 32B Model Trained Through Globally Distributed RL
I used to have an idea related to science fiction novels that artificial intelligence could aggregate computing power through the network to perform ultra-large-scale calculations, thereby achieving strong artificial intelligence. Reality will also develop in this way, which is very interesting
