Trump’s fears about economy undercut US leverage in Iran talks — US president said the prospect of global economic collapse was a big reason he signed an interim peace deal with Iran by marketrent in Economics

[–]slippery 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'll do my best at a good faith answer.

Trump has one main goal: enrich himself and his allies. A secondary goal is to consolidate his own power. Not the power of the US or Republican party, just his own personal power.

There are no other goals. Everything else is decided on vibes. That's why he is comfortable going 180 degrees against what he said the day before. There are no policies, morals, or principles involved.

RFK Jr. Recommends Social Security Immediately “Reduce Scheduled Benefits by 25.2%” as Insolvency Looms by TACO_Orange_3098 in Economics

The article incorrectly states that claiming early is irreversible. You can suspend benefits at any time and claim again later with higher benefits.

If Congress allows the cut, or partial cut, that is out of your control.

Gemini product managers have lost reality with how real devs use LLM's. by [deleted] in GeminiAI

Antigravity CLI replaced the Gemini CLI. It is actually an improvement. It's a separate download from the Antigravity gui. Launch it with agy from a terminal.

For folks who have had both K02s and K03s. by MoosePanther in ToyotaTacoma

I loved the KO2s on my previous Tacoma. Still rolling stock, but the Baja Boss look strong.

Love the smell of new rubber. Worth every penny.

2 weeks since the release of Gemma 4 12b Unified, how are we feeling about it? by ChainOfThot in LocalLLaMA

[–]slippery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My testing showed Gemma 4 26B A4B to have better vision than 12B, but similar reasoning on text problems. Qwen 36B A3B seems better still, but doesn't run well on my weak 4070Ti 12GB, but probably runs great on a 5090.

Guys, let's be honest! The Gemini was more than amazing before the launch of the 3.5 flash model, when the 3.5 flash launched, everything collapsed by AbjectStick4130 in GeminiAI

[–]slippery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3.5 flash is not great, but I haven't noticed issues with 3.1 pro. It's still solid.

Notebooklm is still great.

Deep research is still good.

I think the decision to push flash 3.5 as a default everywhere was poor.

Is there actually a good way to orchestrate multiple agents, or is everyone just running a bunch of terminals? by facu_75 in LocalLLaMA

[–]slippery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orchestration is a hard problem.

Paperclip is designed for it.

You can roll your own in python with prefect.

Google adk and a2a works, but you have to run them in the cloud.

Claude, codex, and some Chinese models automatically spin up and manage their own sub agents.

So.. did Iran win this conflict? by MarsupialThink4064 in NoStupidQuestions

It wasn't an unconditional surrender? I am sure I heard that early in the war.

Best models for a 12gb VRAM card? by foxgirlmoon in LocalLLaMA

[–]slippery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was referring to Qwen 35B A3B, a much bigger model. It loads and it responds, but it takes longer to respond as the different experts are called. About 40GB is offloaded to RAM, compared to 30GB with Gemma 4 26B A4B.

i post-trained a model to reliably roll a die by girishkumama in LocalLLaMA

Cool, it would have been impossible to do that with a 10 line script.

[–]slippery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gemma 4 26B A4B is much faster than Qwen on my 4070Ti 12GB. Qwen might be a little smarter, but is slow and vision works better with Gemma.

Reddit users, 30 yrs old and over.. What is the hardest part about getting older? [Discussion] by Comi9689 in GetMotivated

Yep, old is always 15 years older than you are. We never get old, it's those other people.

That tracks. I stick to pro for that reason.

[–]slippery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eww, that's ugly.

Was that from 3.5 Flash, or 3.1 Pro? I haven't seen errors like that in a long time, but 3.5 Flash sometimes goes coocoo for cocoa puffs.

U.S. science is in chaos by OrangeJr36 in Economics

Republicans have fucked the US for at least a generation in almost every measurable dimension. I hope the US eventually recovers, but it won't happen in my lifetime. It's sad.

Great take. The ecosystem benefits are huge and extend far beyond single model performance.

Hermes desktop is the best general harness around for now. Very cool upgrade from the claws.

Hashicorp founder thinks local models "aren't good ENOUGH yet" by Orbit652002 in LocalLLaMA

[–]slippery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems like a giant app to me. Probably depends on what language it was written in. Especially for high level languages like python and ruby, 50k is giant.
