weikju··on Apple brings OpenAI's GPT-5 to iOS and macOS
It’s an addition to their own AI offering
weikju··on Apple brings OpenAI's GPT-5 to iOS and macOS
Which is different from the Chatgpt integration
weikju··on Job-seekers are dodging AI interviewers
That is sadly a likely outcome. An evolution of the companies forcing/encouraging employees to buy the company’s goods.
weikju··on AWS deleted my 10-year account and all data without warning
Gotta add AI agents to that list
weikju··on Tim Cook rallying Apple employees around AI efforts
> current Apple employees here, maybe they can weigh in.

Unless things have changed in the last 15 years, my understanding was that they actually are barred from doing just that

weikju··on Build an AI telephony agent for inbound and outbound calls
Ah, so THIS is the background story of that Black Mirror episode!
weikju··on Orion Browser
I noticed the reply didn't answer about sync...
weikju··on Orion Browser
And soon, Linux
weikju··on Orion Browser
> Also, PSA, extensions don’t automatically update on desktop.

I see an "automatic updates" checkbox now in the extensions management window

weikju··on .gitignore Is Inherently Sisyphean
For one thing, many AI code helpers use the contents of .gitignore as a suggestion for files to not include in their context or changes.
weikju··on No AI Content
You misread. It’s the site plagiarizing their articles that has the ads. So take that river back please.
weikju··on Why are we pretending AI is going to take all the jobs?
Also, once it takes all the jobs… where are all the customers’ money going to come from?
weikju··on You lose 23 minutes of focus every Google or GPT use;
Do I need an account and am I subject to the free plan’s usage limits, if I use a local model? What local models are supported? Anything ollama or llama.cpp?
weikju··on Show HN: Shoggoth Mini – A soft tentacle robot powered by GPT-4o and RL
That’s what I get for going straight to comments…
weikju··on Where's Firefox going next?
temporary containers [0]

> disposable containers which isolate the data websites store (cookies, storage, and more) from each other

Granted, they're not in private broswing mode just normal mode, but same effect

weikju··on Show HN: Shoggoth Mini – A soft tentacle robot powered by GPT-4o and RL
I’ve seen this from some Apple research lab recently…

weikju··on Google's Reverse Acquihire of Windsurf and the Future of AI Developer Tools
I’d think a reverse acquihire would be Apple buying Next where Next mostly takes over Apple (Jobs coming back, OpenSTEP becoming the base of macOS)
weikju··on Sorry, macOS Tahoe Beta 2 Still Does the Finder Icon Dirty
Interestingly, neither this 512pixels or daringfireball post mentions the Finder icon in DARK mode, which preserves the reversed color (blue on the right). I think it looks good though, when in dark mode, and the fixed one in light mode looks good too.
weikju··on LLMs pose an interesting problem for DSL designers
We need to ensure humans can still find buffer overflows in order to win the war!
weikju··on Danish Ministry Replaces Windows and Microsoft Office with Linux and LibreOffice
My guess -- they support Safari because of iOS. And so might as well just support it on Mac too because it's the default... Heck MS even made Teams more officially supported on Safari than Firefox!
weikju··on Apple Just Sherlocked Docker
> where now it's running on apple silicon.

It's still running in a tiny Linux VM. One VM per container if what I've read is right...

It's running on Apple Silicon because it's only available on Apple Silicon. Docker/orbstack/lima/etc are also running on Apple Silicon when your Mac is an Apple Silicon Mac, so I didn't quite get the meaning of that last one...

If you were trying to say it's running natively without a Linux VM though, it's wrong insofar as it's not running on a single shared VM as the other solutions do but it's still using Linux VMs.

weikju··on Self-Host and Tech Independence: The Joy of Building Your Own
If doing so id also recommend not using the same email or domain for the registrar and for your email host…. If you are locked out of one you’d want to be able to access the other to change things.
weikju··on My AI skeptic friends are all nuts
lol are you serious? I bet compilers are less deterministic now than before what with all the CPUs and their speculative executions and who knows what else. But all that stuff is still documented and not made out of thin air randomly…
weikju··on My AI skeptic friends are all nuts
Your compiler does not hallucinate registers or JMP instructions
weikju··on The Gmail app will now create AI summaries
> I can think of one - there's a bunch of newsletters/substacks I subscribe to that occasionally contain stuff I really care about somewhere in them, but are too long and dense to quickly skim them. An AI summary of most important points and topics would help me decide whether to invest time and read it in full, or archive it and forget.

At this point in time though an LLM summary would not be guaranteed to contain all the points or to focus on the stuff you care about, so it wouldn't be reliable anyway.

weikju··on Untrusted chatbot AI between you & the internet is a disaster waiting to happen
Keep in mind you’re ignoring the people who are ignoring your agent posts and have no idea if they are detecting the nature of them or not.
weikju··on Claude Code SDK
All that’s really needed for this to work is a team of writers and plot conveniences.
weikju··on France Endorses UN Open Source Principles
> But yeah that UI is just awful.

As far as I can see, awful UI never stops people from using software that is "mandated" or "default". I mean have you seen Windows? MS Office? Web sites? Mobile apps??

weikju··on Fastvlm: Efficient vision encoding for vision language models
They are running data centers and offloading some things to chatGPT though, not just running on device.

In fact there’s no clear indication when Apple Intelligence is running on-device or in their Private Cloud Compute.

weikju··on Replacing Kubernetes with systemd (2024)
Just replace the battle tested brittle C code with a brittle bespoke yaml mess!
