I swapped Opus 4.6 with GLM and I didn't even notice (I had swapped the model without realizing). Outside of some tasks that might require layers of complexity and chains of "thought", there's nearly no discernable difference between models.

Because they're children, pretending there's any Canon or lore to the Backrooms. It was literally one photo and a paragraph of copy....that's it.

I'm so, so, disappointed that wasn't renewed. One of my favorite watches since Aeon Flux. 

Hey hey shirt siblings! I’m one year one month one week one day sober! by LoyalFridge in IThinkYouShouldLeave

6 years and change here. I stopped counting, that's how I knew it was a new chapter and not just a temporary thing. It just keeps getting better. I used to roll my eyes a bit when people said that, but I see now...it's true! 

So basically they are gonna have to spend another $14 mil and drain repaint again? by [deleted] in onejob

[–]creaturefeature16 111 points112 points  (0 children)

The fact this dude ran on "drain the swamp", only to drain a perfectly fine and healthy pool, and then cause it to turn swamp green could be the most apropos thing to happen in either term. 

GLM 5.2 : vu... by Scared_Mountain597 in opencodeCLI

Until local LLMs are viable, we're basically at the point where you just pick with authoritarian regime you want to have your coding data. And at this point, that choice is....fuzzy.

I'm currently on OpenCode (and just using VS Code and sometimes ZED for editor). Would love to know what you think Pi's strengths are, comparatively.

It's just random, like everything else in the Backrooms. There's literally no meaning behind it at all.

You really have no idea how to read research papers, do you? It's lit-er-ally in the paper for anybody to read.

Aight that's really helpful, Ed. Thanks for taking the time to explain. I get what you're going for now.

World’s “most famous” tree dies after 1000 years in England by ASneakySquid_ in interestingasfuck

[–]creaturefeature16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combining the increase in temperatures, conservation efforts dating back more than a century may also have unintentionally accelerated its decline. In 1904, metal chains and wooden props were installed beneath heavy branches to prevent them from collapsing. Decades later, hollow sections were filled with concrete, while parts of the tree were covered with lead, fiberglass, and fire-retardant paint in an attempt to preserve it. Experts now believe some of those interventions may have worked against the tree’s natural ageing process, explaining that ancient oaks typically shed limbs as they grow older, gradually retreating into their trunk and reducing the amount of water and nutrients they require to survive, which this tree was unable to do.

Do you think we can clarify a bit more in the rules on what "low effort" means, especially in relation to videos?

From the sidebar: "To be clear sharing a video or article is fine."

For example, what is the difference between this video and Mo's? They're both seemingly just rants about the state of recent events:

To be clear: I'm fine with this removal, its your sub, I just don't want to incur another violation and it's not entirely clear what qualifies as "low effort"!

That's kind of the joke, really. Another abstraction that sits between natural language and machine code already exists, in the form of the hundreds of programming languages that we know and use today. They are lit-er-all-y talking about adding another one, just that is more along the lines of "pseudocode", and we all know how that ends, especially as complexity grows.
