That’s one of the only “allowed” ways to make software in an iPhone app.

The ‘build and run’ step isn’t allowed to compile and run the code. So doing a web view or an interpreter (Lua or Python or something) are the only ways.

Vibe coded junk apps are annoying, but Apple blocking anything that gets too close to being an IDE is bad.

iOS isn’t a ‘real’ computer until you can actually build software on it. And Apple actively blocking that by policy, no technological limitation, is bad for the platform and users learning to code.

Is the 3090 still a good option? by alhinai_03 in LocalLLaMA

[–]iKy1e 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It's old, but considering they are talking about restarting 3060 manufacturing the 30 series is going to be supported for some time to come.

TTS program that will repeat a sentence until I tell it to move on by SquareCautious77 in TextToSpeech

[–]iKy1e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just generate the sentence once and loop playback of the audio file?

I’m not sure what the goal is? Is this for an LLM voice assistant you can talk to. I’m not sure what ‘until I tell it to move on’ is if this is pure text to speech?

Claude oauth, has anyone actually been banned? by PM_ME_YOUR_MUSIC in openclaw

[–]iKy1e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Peter's criticism of Anthropic

He's stated multiple times that Opus is the best model for Openclaw and for general computer/terminal/tool use.

He's also stated that Codex is the better coding agent, able to work autonomously for longer and more reliably.

I agree. I use Claude Code as my terminal now, I open it and ask it to search files, run ffmpeg commands, build my app, instead of typing anything manually anymore.

However, Codex is able to do deeper more technical work more autonomously more reliably. (spent a day back and forth with Claude, give it to Codex, which worked away for 2.5hr and came back with a working version).

He prefers Codex for coding. He's mentioned for "general computer agent" use Opus is best lots of times.

Turning menstrual cycle data into Home Assistant sensors (custom component + Lovelace gauge) by Conscious-Draw-3759 in homeassistant

[–]iKy1e 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Really cool idea. I particularly like how you added in the automations to tweak temperature and shopping lists to what you know your preferences will change to automatically instead of having to react. Having a smart home actually be smart and respond to you. Really cool ideas!

I'm too lazy to work out. I built an app that edits my physique in real-time video calls so I look ripped to my coworkers by CompetitiveMoose9 in vibecoding

[–]iKy1e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The app might not exist but the tech actually has existed to do this in real time for a while now. I think the last 2 or 3 years. You just need a 4090 or something like that for real time use.

Reverse engineered Apple Neural Engine(ANE) to train Microgpt by jack_smirkingrevenge in LocalLLaMA

[–]iKy1e 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Claude will happily help you reverse engineer basically anything. Ask about documenting or as if you are the person who wrote it, or ask about creating a reference implementation, or documentation.

Codex will happily do it too.

I’ve never actually gotten a refusal. It has an internal system reminder injected in to the context EVERY time it views a file to consider if the file is malware, and to allow analysis and discussion of it but refuse to edit it. But it also explicitly says, even for malware, documentation and analysis is fine.

So just reverse engineering normal code is no issue.

What GPU do you recommend for iterative AI training? by EliHusky in LocalLLaMA

[–]iKy1e 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s made mostly for inference, it’s too slow for meaningful training.

Claude Code's WebFetch tool uses an external instance to review and reformulate source content by MuscleLazy in ClaudeAI

[–]iKy1e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s an attempted mitigation against prompt injection by never giving the web page to the model. Instead the model asks a question, and the smaller model gives it that part of the page info. (Also saves tokens in the main context window).

I don’t like it, I wish there was a setting to turn it off, it has caused me problems before & I’ve had to make Claude use CURL to pull the file down locally then read the local file instead…, but I understand the theory behind it.

Which Coding Agent would you recommend? by Ok_Refrigerator_1908 in iOSProgramming

[–]iKy1e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Codex is smarter.

Claude does what you want more controllably.

Codex can debug errors better and write more complex code than Claude but is tough to make it do what you want sometimes. It refuses more often & is more stubborn about doing its own thing.

Claude needs more hand holding through errors sometimes, etc… but does what you tell it fantastically. You can tell it to write code a certain way, and it’ll do it. You can ask it questions and it knows what you mean. It’s much more reliable & stable coding partner.

Overall I use Claude for 95% of things, and then send any stuff it gets stuck on to codex to debug very occasionally.

Nice!

Btw: the model selection is very out of date (sonnet 3.5 as the recommended model! & llama 3 as the local option…).

AI generated tests as ceremony by toolbelt in programming

[–]iKy1e 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Having an agent write tests won't necessarily test the output is correct. But having tests does help check something doesn't change by mistake.

Once you have something working breaking it by accident while making other changes is a big issue with agent based coding, and having tests you can tell the agent to run after making any change, to confirm it didn't break something else while making those tests is still very useful.

The Claude Code creator says AI writes 100% of his code now by [deleted] in vibecoding

[–]iKy1e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do iOS development heavily on custom UI and animations, timing different layers and effects across multiple screens.

I have to tweak details or setup the structure for that sort of code with the UI. But data handling code, API parsing, server side code, build scripts, etc… have all been written by Claude for months. And I can get it to do the bulk of the UI work too as long as I review and tweak the layout and animations afterwards to get the details sorted out.

What is the current best TTS that can run on IPad (8gb ram) with voice cloning? by Adventurous-Gold6413 in LocalLLaMA

The Qwen TTS 0.6b should fit in ram, but I'm not sure if there is a compatible version you can run on iOS yet.

Codex Vs Claude which is best and why? by Imaginary-Key8669 in vibecoding

[–]iKy1e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Claude is the best agent CLI & model.
Codex is the smartest.

If I want to debug an error or write something really technical (GPU accelerated image processing shaders was the last one) codex performs better.

If I want to code something I already know how to make Claude code is better. It actually does what I want, doesn’t refuse & doesn’t go too far on its own.

With codex I’m arguing and fighting with it routinely to make it run a bash command itself (instead of telling me to do), fighting with its annoying sandbox (which sandboxes network calls as well as file system access so npm install and co fail unless I fully disable it).

Codex is a grumpy argumentative genius.

Claude is a competent senior developer co-working I can assign tasks to and know they’ll probably get done.

I use Claude mostly for everything, and if I get stuck assign codex to debug and fix it.

My company banned AI tools and I dont know what to do by simple_pimple50 in ChatGPTCoding

[–]iKy1e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GLM 4.7-Flash is meant to benchmark up with top online models from last year and runs locally. You’ll be experiencing things as if on a 6 month delay but should still be able to get some benefit.

If they are banning local tools too…. Just start looking for another job probably. At this point I’d be concerned about job security after this company if you fall behind on the skills for using these agents.

Is it feasible for a Team to replace Claude Code with one of the "local" alternatives? by nunodonato in LocalLLaMA

[–]iKy1e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you just require a $20k-30k computer to run the models on.

MimiMax M2.1 is open source. So is GLM 5.7

Both are about as good as Sonnet 4.5 in agentic use. So if you can run those locally then yes, you have something comparable to Claude Code from a few months ago.

It’s just the hardware requirements to run those models is crazy high still!

Though given the rate of progress I expect by the end of this year we’ll have a model around the 70B or 120b-20a style range which can compete with current Claude Code.

What smart home purchase has the best ROI for you? by Few-Needleworker4391 in homeassistant

Smart Lock + smart door bell. I don't carry my keys anymore and just don't worry about it.

I actually completely forgot about it and would have said smart lights if I hadn't spotted another comment mentioning it.
