Starting a support group for meditators who knew about jhana before nick and feel utterly eclipsed by his accomplishments in practice and distribution; hmu
Great to see the jhanas getting so much widespread coverage Still not totally sure how we had tools to create vast joy from nothing that stayed in deep obscurity for thousands of years, but I’m glad that’s changing at least a little

Yes, Jaron Lanier! tl;dw—why do doomy AI takes dominate? Because the (young) creators of AI grew up on bleak sci-fi: The Matrix, Terminator, Marvel. "I'll go further—if Star Trek Next Generation had lasted another ten years, there would be far fewer teen suicides."
Don’t get hung up on whether you agree with his point on AI. Just listen to what he has to say about Star Trek vs dystopian sci fi stories. He’s grasping at something more important than AI. It’s what I’ve been trying to help people see for years: The story you repeatedly consume becomes the story you live into.

sped up grouped-int4 kernels by 2.5x on 13-year-old Ivy Bridge CPUs, nearly doubled GLM 5.2 tok/s: github.com/JustVugg/colibri/…
my god there is so much perf engineering to be done. the servers are all so shit and buggy (sglang, vllm, anything else turbo garbo). the low level kernels/mlx are unoptimized. like I can’t believe my eyes when I see some of this shit. there so much low level work to be done.

Or. NVIDIA v100 32GB 2x + r720 = $1600 - 2x qwen3.8 55 tok/s - qwen3-coder-next-80b 80 tok/s - qwen3.5-122b 44 tok/s See what else you can do with a pile of rust: sloptimized.ccb.gg
Intel Arc B70 - Qwen3.8-27B - 256K context - exl3 - 4 bits - 16 sequences - 60 tok/s up to 330 tok/s at 16 sequences This costs 1600$

two things can be true! the second being that the alpha on the table for everyone who doesnt have piles of GPUs is building a system capable of keeping the GPUs fed. how is your metaharness coming along?
If you're vibe coding tools to help with your vibe coding project, you have an addiction and need to seek help.

A pile of legacy metal with 3x the memory bandwidth that costs 2/3 of the DGX Spark: - v100 32GB 900 GB/s: $650 (x8) - poweredge r720: $300 (x4) ~> $6500 bonus: it doubles as a space heater.
So you want local AI and want to know what hardware you need? To get close to real-world, "cut the cord" local AI you need 256GB of memory in a decent package - can be DGX Sparks (TP-2), a Mac, or dedicated GPUs. It will cost you ~$10K USD or more depending on where you are and you can run GLM 5.3 Flash, Deepseek 4.1 Flash, or Qwen 3.8 Flash Next and many folks will be pretty happy. It's not going to be crazy fast but it will be usable - point OMP (or your favorite harness) at it and party on. Caveats: - even the best available model recipes at this level are not frontier equivalent - they're frontier-1 (or -2) at best, but most practical tasks and coding no longer strictly requires frontier -the models often barely fit, need to be carefully optimized, and unless on dedicated GPUs ($$$) will just barely hit acceptable real world speed and concurrency for one person doing serious stuff or a small handful of people doing light stuff - those boxes are gonna be busy and dedicated to model serving - little or no room left for sidecars < this is something that bit me and I ended up needing a 3rd spark 😂 That's not to say the next step down (in the 96GB-128GB - single spark - range) isn't useful. There are lots of very smart models you can run in that tier (and frankly on even smaller machines) that will do a lot of useful things. It's an an awesome place to start! I've been there personally - first with a Macbook 96GB that I've been through model hell and back with, then with my first Spark that performed admirably in a solo configuration on several workloads for months. Both of them did real work 24/7 in complete privacy and were awesome learning platforms, but neither ever came close to being able to host a model to replace my daily driver.

We're adding support for AGENTS.md to Claude Code. Starting today in version 2.1.277, if there is no CLAUDE.md in a folder, Claude will check for and use AGENTS.md. You can toggle this behavior in /config.

So @VW has decided not to support lovers of privacy and digital sovereignty by disabling their mobile app on @GrapheneOS. I wish I could say I'm disappointed, but given that the app has never had respect for so much as a password manager, I can only say that I'm not surprised.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Analogue for their gracious support of my inquiry into the relationship between structured water and rouleaux formation (red blood cell clumping)! Have been loving my new OMAX darkfield scope 🤩

How EMF ☠️ your tissues: EZ water (-) builds up around hydrophilic blood cells, allows healthy spacing by ejecting positively charged particles and repelling other cells. EMF disrupts EZ water, inducing rouleaux (RBC clumps). Rouleaux > smallest capillaries, nearby tissues starve

Yeah and good thing. EMF disrupt the structure of water in your body, leading to rouleaux formation (red blood cell clumping), which means tissues fed by your finest capillaries (which are less than one cell wide) starve. bbc.com/future/article/20260…

If you want to share all the skills with all the agents all the time—without re-running the command after adding new skills—use a symlink: ln -s …
Take all your global Claude Code Skills and make them available to Codex with this idempotent one‑liner: mkdir -p "${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/skills" && rsync -a "$HOME/.claude/skills/" "${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/skills/"

Why would you want to download this beautiful MacOS agent orchestrator when you could haggle with tmux and k8s for hours and still not be able to use your mouse? conductor.build/ (Sincerely, I love my tmux and k8s and have no plans to GUI.)
