Projects: a project starts with a working directory, and loads `AGENTS.md` from that directory into context for new chats. Memories are scoped to a project, and a cross-project relevance multiplier lets you adjust the relevance of memories from across projects in the retrieval pipeline.

Self-hosted AI on a compute-limited system means slow time to first token when caches have to prefill. Porrima aims to alleviate this by speculatively pre-warming a few cache slots with the context you're going to use in the near future, and shows cache residency indicators in the chat list.

one cool thing that Porrima can do is hot-swap its own llama.cpp processes. I ask it every time I want to update the binary or to try new features — it can then restart the service, prefill and resume with no user input.

📣 TypeScript 7's Release Candidate is now out! 📣 The new native rewrite is almost here. Try it out on your codebases, and make sure your team is ready for the upcoming 7.0 release!

in the post-singularity utopian future there will be a web browser that supports both grid lanes and corner-shape, allowing you to create a beautiful horizontally scrolling masonry of squircles using only CSS

"I'll have you fill out a form on this iPad, then take a seat and we'll call your name." the dropdown lags for 225ms and animates from the wrong position as the 'next' button snaps erratically between rows. UI animations untouchable by ASI

scroll behavior mandates⁉️ people are going to love my idea for mandatory infinite scrolling, where if an app or website doesn't have endless paginated content it has to implement a loop. no more scrollbars

the way people do CRT-inspired effects in games, websites, etc. intended to be viewed on an LCD, I'm considering doing that but imitating the look of an LCD, to be viewed on another, better LCD

it's ironic that anti-AI Gamers will go on a witch hunt for game developers who touched comfyui and then turn around and spend hundreds of dollars on machine learning accelerators from AI hardware companies Nvidia and AMD, thinking them somehow less evil if used to consume rather than create

Seeing how SOTA models are evolving: becoming more restrictive in usage (decided by the company), less transparent (you cannot tell if the AI lab nerfed your model) + less private (your prompts are stored, no opt out) makes me much more interested in open models + local inference

I don't believe in x-risk but Anthropic's 'fuck all you authoritarians, do what we say while we manipulate requests to stop anyone from competing with the chosen ones' approach to safety is damn near the worst-case realistic scenario for AI

"Siri AI" seems like a redundant name. Siri was always AI — they were making a big deal about AI like 15 years ago!

Gemma 4 quantization-aware training (QAT) models are now available, bringing AI performance directly to edge devices and consumer GPUs. These checkpoints are optimized with quantization-aware training to dramatically reduce memory requirements and unlock high-speed local inference. 🧵

🧛🏻

it's a challenge to coerce any Gemma 4 out of the 'assistant' persona and the apologetic subservient mindset when using an agent harness. I don't think these models should venture out of conversational chat contexts. Qwen3.6 by contrast has very high self-esteem and mental resilience as an agent.

third option between "Post" and "Save Draft" called "Post (dry run)" where it posts, but if people don't like it it doesn't count and you're allowed to try again

✅ Nice lil btn scale-down 🙈 Layout change bc the scroll bar disappears 🙈 No light dismiss These UX problems can easily be solved with: - closedby="any" - overscroll-behavior: contain

Gemma 4 12B Runs comfortably in 14GiB VRAM, but performs on par with Gemma 4 26B (which performed on par with gpt-oss-120b, which was up around o3) Also multimodal and awesome blog.google/innovation-a...

the mapping of scroll input to software scroll position is something that is managed by hardware and the OS, overriding it with javascript is always wrong and bad UX. my touchpad already has inertia and acceleration, introducing a shitty version of those things to a webpage is never a good idea

building any effective agent harness involves a lot of fighting against the baggage of the 'user' and 'assistant' roles in every llm chat template. those terms were a huge mistake

imaginative sci-fi technology: the sodas and sparkling waters in Starfield come in flexible plastic pouches that are visibly not pressurized. how does that work? I imagine it as a separate little co2 canister inside that carbonates it as you drink, like a self-contained fountain machine

how expensive can it be to adjust the aspect ratio of an image preview for the image, and why doesn't bluesky do this client side?

it's insane that in 2026 there are still apps asking for things like your password and the code sent to your email. the technology to make that all go away, and have you, your computer, and the computer you're accessing just smoothly come to an agreement literally exists and every device supports it

looking at the map, a couple of places on god's green earth really stand out: the Bonneville salt falts in the Western United States, and the Salar de Uyuni in Southwest Bolivia. considering a trip to Bolivia one of these days, as I’ve only had the chance to explore the former thus far.

GPT-5.5 is generally pretty smart but cannot stop itself from taking you way too literally and attempting to solve every problem using the most fragile heuristics known to mankind. you have to do an additional 'heuristic hardening' pass after most changes to not end up in a 1mm-thick glass house
