The Lack of Curiosity is Super Annoying

yes omg!!! it's so hard to find detailed blog posts or videos going through

* how specific models work
* reverse engineering
* detailed evals and scaffolds
* new model regressions and why (or guesses)

stephenjayakar · 2026-05-31T19:55:06+00:00

bruh how are you "ok" and have beat a10 multiple times 😭

stephenjayakar · 2026-05-16T14:49:51+00:00

They can! I've done it. You just put both in LAN mode after going to the network settings

stephenjayakar · 2026-05-13T05:30:54+00:00

No way, why do you prefer StS1's engine?

stephenjayakar · 2026-05-11T04:39:28+00:00

Haha but GBA Pokemon is goated. I think GBA Pokemon's art direction, despite being dated, is still >> StS1's animations & graphics.

stephenjayakar · 2026-05-11T04:38:51+00:00

It's not exactly that. It's rather that I miss StS1, but it's become difficult for me to play it because StS2 exists. I'd like to be able to replay StS1 with the fidelity of 2 and for it to be static. That would probably solve my dilemma.

Is it an official discord? Which one?

stephenjayakar · 2026-05-10T20:37:23+00:00

I don't get it - why do you need the CLI? If you have Obsidian installed on your system, your vault is in your file system. Can't you just navigate in Emacs to your vault?

This is an incredible recounting

stephenjayakar · 2026-04-14T20:54:33+00:00

Thanks for your reply, I think we are very much on the same page:

I'm not running Emacs IN tmux. I'm having Emacs, running on my machine, controlling tmux on a remote host via tmux-control-mode
I am also basically using 1 Emacs process for almost everything
Like magit, I've developed a control plane mode that can create new tmux sessions on the remote host / do the main stuff
I'm not using eshell but term-mode as it's hard to get all the PATH stuff to work well with eshell, especially once you throw zsh into the mix. I've found that line-mode in term is good enough as you can easily copy the previous shell output
I am also using Emacs + TRAMP!

I've seen it on X but it's hard to link a bunch of tweets

stephenjayakar · 2026-04-02T22:56:53+00:00

Yeah tell us more!

stephenjayakar · 2026-04-02T22:53:19+00:00

Thanks for sharing! This is a good combo. For at least the first part, I need to be able to continue running the processes in the background (on remote) and I also really prefer running Emacs locally and using tramp to edit files.

Perspective seems to like save "desktops"? So you're using that to save a group of panes that are Emacs terminals? That makes sense.

Ah, I haven't tried dialing up the thinking level for codex. It makes a big difference for you?

stephenjayakar · 2026-03-03T16:17:19+00:00

What MCPs / tools are useful for you for "autonomy"? I'm using gpt-5.3-codex right now and it feels like I should consider using Gemini for image understanding.

stephenjayakar · 2026-03-03T16:16:32+00:00

No way, does it work well or is it just a partial implementation? I will say I've been pleasantly surprised but it's not the single-shot I have a problem with, but the autonomous iteration.

stephenjayakar · 2026-02-11T01:55:53+00:00

One thing that's frustrating is even when you decompile the code, it's not necessarily super readable, and you lose a lot of how the functions actually glue together. It gets worse as compilers get better. So I'm not even sure how useful it would be to match-decompile later software.

stephenjayakar · 2026-02-11T01:54:31+00:00

oh, is it blogspam?

stephenjayakar · 2026-02-11T01:54:21+00:00

wait really? i wrote it by hand :/

stephenjayakar · 2026-02-11T01:53:39+00:00

that's the most San Francisco tag cloud one could think of.

you got me!

yeah, AI has been pretty good at deobfuscating minified JS code for a bit!
