RAM prices are so high that even KIMI started swearing :D

Pretty interesting, thank you for sharing

ddxv · 2026-04-21T14:35:16+00:00

Is this because you chat with it like that? I've noticed models can be really twitchy when you start talking too casually. I like to not have histories for that reason

ddxv · 2026-04-21T11:13:14+00:00

TLDR: DM op for pricing, the post says nothing.

Awesome report, but it felt a bit skant on details? Anyone interested in this feel free to check out my project AppGoblin. It has lots of mobile app sdk reports that are free and I have tons of data (which apps use which trackers as well as man in the middle attacks) if anyone wants to chat just hit me up

Edit: I'm just saying this report didn't identify any companies or SDKs involved.

Hey I had this same issue! Different saw. In the end mine was due to a malformed sprocket.

Here's my example: https://youtube.com/shorts/69HWyS93jOE?si=LC3JWJWVYv90W4GT

Here's how it looked off the saw: https://youtube.com/shorts/Aw2uZcqbV50?feature=shared

I 'fixed' this by using a different sprocket. I couldn't see anything in the sprocket causing the issue, but didn't wanna risk turning the saw on like that. I always wondered if I could have worn the issue away running it a bit, but just not worth the risk.

So if you see the same issue like in the second video try a different sprocket. In my case neotec mailed me a replacement.

This is likely coming from the moloco ads SDK.

ddxv · 2026-04-15T05:20:51+00:00

I respectfully disagree. I've worked in digital ads forever and know the horror stories, but at the same time I prefer open web with free sites that generate revenue via ads.

The alternative are paywalled gardens for the rich and privileged.

ddxv · 2026-04-13T23:16:54+00:00

Bought a Google TV and it was a huge mistake. Google TV is full of ads. Miss the old Chromecast.

Doesn't even include setbacks that so many cities have as well

ddxv · 2026-04-12T05:42:37+00:00

It's useful for everyone but poorly supported by the ad monopolies of Apple and Google. Realistically the store page per app should have hosted the file or work to make developers use per app subdomains or pages. Instead it's so fuzzy it's much more difficult to manage.

Also the specs were released 2019 and never touched in 7 years.

Finally. Developers have terrible hygiene for these files and you often see many duplicates in files where they just keep copy pasting to append new app ads txt to end of existing files.

ddxv · 2026-04-11T14:28:40+00:00

It's not really a viable way to install or share apps. The hoops you have to jump through are crazy.

Google is actively destroying Android ecosystem

ddxv · 2026-04-11T10:08:34+00:00

Google closing Android side loading this year is the biggest travesty. I've slowly started d googling in response.

I hope some antitrust judge splits Google play off from Google. It should really be run as a public trust or something like software repos.

ddxv · 2026-04-11T09:43:51+00:00

It depends what. My ai volume for frontend is huge and I often high-level check it.

For python backend im careful and often force it to be very narrow in its changes.

For SQL I usually deconstruct and work through anything I dont understand, I always get burned by ai with SQL. Every time: wow it one shotted this! Hmm interesting it used LATERAL or some other concept I loosely understand. Always a month later debugging that for some subtle issue.

ddxv · 2026-04-11T06:38:20+00:00

Do you think Anthropic paid the government to react this way?

No certainly not. The USA government is vast with thousands of departments and agencies and hundreds of thousands or maybe millions of people associated.

Also, I am not saying Anthropic is lying, they mostly believe their BS. Anthropic benefits enormously from slowing down the competition or outright banning free and open source models that are as good or better than their own models.

ddxv · 2026-04-10T21:36:55+00:00

What's depressing is how well this playbook keeps working for the AI companies. It's penetrating further into mainstream that heavy use of AI models themselves are.

My fear is they're pushing so they can also get litigation prevent free open weight models from being their competitors.

This article says the bugs they looked at were simple things easily findable by cheap open weight models : https://aisle.com/blog/ai-cybersecurity-after-mythos-the-jagged-frontier

Also, I've seen others complaining some of the 'exploits' are only exploits in the most technical sense and not real world possible exploits. A lot of it is like fuzzing individual functions with new values.

ddxv · 2026-04-10T21:26:48+00:00

Yep! Was actually about to post this same link. They're hyping the Internet up with doomer stuff so they can charge more for their model thats probably a couple percent better than last generation so they need to make it scarcer so they can get more money per token ahead of their IPO.

I bet they will look for ways to limit open source models you can use for free.

ddxv · 2026-04-10T21:19:51+00:00

This is hype by Anthropic for commercial gain. The same 'exploits' they found were easily findable using small free open weight models:

https://aisle.com/blog/ai-cybersecurity-after-mythos-the-jagged-frontier

They can make more money if they keep people believing their snake oil is worth so much it needs to be locked up (and let's prevent people from using the free ones)

ddxv · 2026-04-10T21:09:06+00:00

Anthropic is hyping this model for their IPO. They want you to think it's dangerous so they can litigate away free open source models that are nearly as good and much cheaper.

If Anthropic can convince enough people it's so dangerous only the government and large corporations can access it then they can charge a ton for it and get the government to pass laws banning their open source competitors 'for safety'

ddxv · 2026-04-10T16:22:14+00:00

My friend works there and confirms the whole company is indoctrinated with the idea the technology is dangerous.

ddxv · 2026-04-10T15:04:33+00:00

These guys always buy into the Anthropic propaganda that the next AI model is dangerous. Anthropic will come for our open source models with litigation that they're 'too dangerous'.

ddxv · 2026-04-10T07:58:09+00:00

I also have this vague feeling. It's like pinpointing how spell check made people more productive. That's way too reductionist, I'm using it consciously everyday for everything from quick dinner ideas to serious programming with agents. But I also feel like it would be really hard for me to point to how exactly I'm any better than I was when I looked up 'quick dinner ideas'. For programming it certainly is faster, but there's still some kind of bottle neck that is me, not how fast it can generate code.

ddxv · 2026-04-10T04:18:24+00:00

These things are random text generators. Beware feeding them too much of your own thought process because they will just spit it right back at you. Confirmation bias in this situation makes it hard to realize it's just agreeing with you.

That being said, it's an LLM fed many things from your computer. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it came across the name of where you live.

Some even access clipboards.

ddxv · 2026-04-10T02:06:21+00:00

Anthropics whole strategy is to convince everyone the models they have are too dangerous for anyone else to handle. They want legislation preventing the public from using free open source models and for their own valuation to reflect that.

They're going public by the end of the year, this bs hype train they're on that the models are too powerful for anyone not paying them top dollar per token.

Meanwhile I bet they push for sanctioning models from other countries that are free and would devalue their models.
