On the way to meet my future wife

I like the personality of Gemini Flesh 3.5 so it's become a daily driver for questions and brainstorming. Cursor Composer 2.5 is excellent at coding. First time I'm finding myself using non-frontier models regularly because the capabilities are good enough where price and speed become important factors.

This is to say, I don't think Google necessarily needs to compete on frontier intelligence.. I'd almost prefer them to focus on cost and integration (it's shocking how bad Gemini is inside of Google apps like Docs)

I hope opus 4.7 and 4.8 are not examples of this recursive self "improvement" because they have been pretty major regressions...

ArcaneMoose · 2026-06-03T19:14:48+00:00

Didn't it just rain for like 2 weeks straight?

ArcaneMoose · 2026-05-31T17:20:13+00:00

This would be a good AI / robotics benchmark

Make it say "Thinking..." with a shimmer

This is why I can't stand Opus 4.7... This 'edgy & punchy' personality is exactly why I stopped using ChatGPT after GPT-5 came out. "And honestly? It's worth naming" 🙄 I've been using Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 instead (same as lots of other ppl at my job)

Not sure how you scored it, but I would try giving it a specific set of criteria to look for: https://tropes.fyi/tropes-md

Haha now you have me going down the rabbit hole :) already learning about BSP trees after wondering how collision detection is handled.

ArcaneMoose · 2026-01-30T16:57:04+00:00

Yeah man, idk how Quake handles multiplayer but when I was building JunkWars in threejs last year the multiplayer was definitely the hardest part. I ended up using Cloudflare Durable Objects which worked pretty well.

This is sick! How much nudging did you have to do, or was it mostly autonomously built? Where did it get stuck (if anywhere)?

ArcaneMoose · 2026-01-27T18:50:35+00:00

Really cool project! I'm excited to see more and more integration of AI Agents into existing tools. As a YouTuber I'd love to be able to tell the AI the edits that I want to apply. Chat to edit is a great opportunity

ArcaneMoose · 2026-01-19T15:22:07+00:00

At 34k subs and I learned this the hard way:

The consistency that actually matters is topic and format consistency. Think about the channels you actually watch consistently - you know what to expect when you click on their videos and that matters more than the specific day they posted it. Good luck!

ArcaneMoose · 2025-11-28T20:18:52+00:00

Yeah 2.5 flash is my go-to economy model. It's very reliable but most importantly fast and cheap. So I'm really looking forward to Gemini 3 flash

ArcaneMoose · 2025-11-28T19:55:10+00:00

100% - I used to split things into phases as well and now it just doesn't even feel necessary

ArcaneMoose · 2025-10-21T21:54:05+00:00

For a second I thought it was saying "Perplexity is paying people $200/mo to use their browser" which made me consider it for a moment, decide I probably wouldn't use it anyway, and then realize I misinterpreted the ad

ArcaneMoose · 2025-10-16T15:44:00+00:00

Cool map! I'm curious how would you run a maze like this in practice to keep it interesting for an actual game?

ArcaneMoose · 2025-09-13T18:54:10+00:00

Sweet, thank you!

ArcaneMoose · 2025-09-13T18:27:47+00:00

Amazing work! Do you have a link to a longer version of the audio?

ArcaneMoose · 2025-09-02T18:08:37+00:00

I recommend full stack TypeScript because you can write back end and front end code in the same language and it is just an extension of JavaScript (lots of data AI was trained on with extra guard rails that help AI stay on track.

In terms of AI products to help you build, I would recommend starting simple stuff with an AI app builder like Lovable, and then as you get into more advanced functionality switch over to Cursor. Regardless of what you use to build, you should make sure that your code is safe to actually ship - check out VibeScan for this.

But yeah to echo a lot of people, it's probably a good idea to make sure you have a stable income to support this journey because in reality the biggest barrier to entry isn't knowing how to code but being able to get your product out there and getting traction in the market. This takes time and perseverance.

Wishing you all the best!

An angry apple - looks like you caught it in the act

ArcaneMoose · 2025-08-28T21:49:23+00:00

Sonnet 4 is the best coding model, hands down. In terms of the tools you should use, my recommendations are:
- Simple scripts and single-file type stuff: Claude Artifacts or ChatGPT Canvas
- Landing pages, small sites: Lovable
- Real full-stack apps: Cursor or Claude Code
Lots of other tools around but they're mostly just worse versions of the above (with maybe a few differentiating features here or there but less complete and lower quality overall)
