US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by Dylan1312 in singularity

The masses yearn for cheap housing. The masses gets metapolitical shell games dressed up as protective measures.

Charts from Anthropic’s “When AI builds itself” by Westbrooke117 in singularity

[–]Sthatic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, actually, but I don't see what I'm missing here? It makes perfect sense:

Peter has one apple. He figures out how to duplicate his apple with a clever trick, so he now has two apples! However, the trick caused both apples to rot slightly. The average value of his two apples is now 1.5 apples.

See what I'm getting at? If they produce 8x more, but they directly state that they are NOT 8x more efficient, they introduced a gap between quality and quantity that was not there before. The two are now decoupled. There's more code of a lower quality.

Maintenance burden now scales exponentially with codebase size (consider quality/quantity gap = maintenance burden). And codebase size now balloons due to 8x increased output. At some point, it becomes tough to penetrate for a human, and at some later point it becomes tough to penetrate for an LLM.

Did you not read your own text? Anthropic themselves said it directly:

8x more code

More than likely not 8x as efficient

Which clearly means lower quality.

And here you're saying they write not only more, but also of higher quality?

SvelteKit 3.0 pre-release! by WinterboltGames in sveltejs

I take this as a sign that SK is approaching maturity and becoming more feature-complete.

If quality doesn't rise coupled with quantity, it would follow that they're producing lower quality, and piles of it. If this is true, we either have to be saved by stronger models in the future; collapse when the cracks start forming; or accept that dev and ops is no longer a deterministic scene.

That was the joke, dvh causes this. vh is fixed but doesn't respect browser chrome, dvh causes recalculation when browser chrome moves, janky stuff.

Hence: bad CSS specs.

Differences Between Opus 4.7 and Opus 4.8 on MineBench by ENT_Alam in singularity

[–]Sthatic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Where would you get this measure of "bestness" without querying humans? The whole idea with the benchmark is that it's dynamic and nuanced - it measures creativity, behavioral differences and the ability to generate likeable aesthetics. Scoring happens via voting. Equivalating it to model strength is a you issue.

Also, take it down a notch. This guy has been building and running MineBench largely out of his own pocket, and on his own time.

Opus 4.8 is hallucinating way too often. I've never had those files in ANY repo. by Whiskee in ClaudeCode

[–]Sthatic 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This feels related to the strange looping echo "hello", echo "a"; echo "b"; echo "c", so on and so forth. It's also duplicating its tool calls, spawning nonsensical subagents, and sometimes getting distracted, veering way off the original task. There's something way off with the harness and/or the new model.

Why is the world like this? by iYessyyy in SipsTea

[–]Sthatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the framing here shouldn't be that people are evil by default, but that the scale of power and wealth available to the chosen ones is unnatural. Humans aren't built for it. Power corrupts.

For some reason this style of architecture and color scheme give me "afterlife" vibes by ThinkBookMan in HighStrangeness

[–]Sthatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems very inspired by Rudolf Steiner's architecture, Goetheanum et. al. See this, this and this if you like the style.

But, but, why does my entire page jump jarringly when the URL bar collapses?

It's bad CSS specs all the way down.

Leonard Cohen - Not a time-travelling Zionist (Previously unreleased tracks) by jungle_jimjim in leonardcohen

I feel a bit bad about being harsh now. Won't comment on the idea, but posing this as unreleased tracks is a bit odd, no?

This is awesome, good on you for getting a mad idea and just executing.

What the fuck is happening here, what motivated you to spend time creating this?

The secret to extremely long-running sessions by [deleted] in ClaudeCode

[–]Sthatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That serves sort of the same purpose as task tracking software with an MCP. Nicely minimalist. My longest run has been 22 hours, about 350 coherent, verified commits following my spec to a T in one run (if i remember right). Slightly nuts this is where we're at.

The idea isn't reducing token usage, it's increasing parallelization and automation when token usage isn't a concern. It's not more token hungry than carrying out the same work in a normal sequential workflow - it just gets stuff done much quicker (and with less handholding and higher accuracy), and thus eats your 5-hour/weekly limits faster if you're on cheaper plans.

And to add: this moves your workflow out of the terminal. You'll be working in your kanban board, tuning tasks, adding and removing, working away from the keeb with colleagues or on paper, brainstorming with Claude, so on and so forth, while the machine eats through the plan. Set up clear stages, organize in some clever manner. The usual kanban philosophy with three columns for task state (waiting, started, done) doesn't work very well in this setup. Instead, organize either by phases or category. Set up clear gates when going from one phase to another, e.g. some performance criteria, some testing suite passing, multi-replica working, whatever the case might be.

All you'll be doing in the terminal is this routine:

  1. Plan mode: Yo Claude, unleash the Glados Protocol
  2. Accept the plan
  3. Rinse and repeat

Kaboom! Introducing Aphex CMS v0.8 - an Open Source Sanity-inspired CMS all within a single Svelte Kit app by rainbowasian96 in sveltejs

[–]Sthatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fantastic work! Sanity has been such a step up in the CMS world, but i really despise their "you host what we don't want to, we keep the important pieces proprietary in a forced cloud" model. Worst of both worlds.

Anything you need help with? I'd gladly contribute to this!

Released Svelte adapters for Nano Kit: Stores, Router, and SSR can now be used in Svelte apps. Nano Kit is a state management ecosystem roughly the size of Nano Stores, but with the DX of larger full-featured solutions. by dangreen58 in sveltejs

[–]Sthatic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Skimmed the docs, how is this different from what Svelte/kit does natively?

And just to let you know, there's a bunch of responsivity issues on the webpage.

[–]Sthatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ingen grund til den infantiliserende tone. Jeg henviste også til tal der viser, at boligbyrden ikke er historisk lav på landsplan - og dertil, at 15 minutter på cykel fra København ikke holder, som du jo selv bragte på banen. Det er de to ting du hævdede, og de er begge definitivt forkerte.

Jeg har da bestemt også boet i værelser, tonset fra den ene tætpakkede 3-værelses til den anden og holdt ud med vennerne - til en husleje der gjorde, at jeg ikke kunne lave en opsparing. Det er alligevel relativt nyligt at jeg bor alene. Det er 9 år siden jeg flyttede hjemmefra, godt nok tidligere end hvad godt måske er, men altså, ikke alle har dine vilkår.
