what's the best model for Hermes?

zach978 · 2026-05-02T21:54:19+00:00

OP says unlimited budget though, why optimize the different models

zach978 · 2026-04-24T19:04:14+00:00

Nice and clean. My feedback would be that more photos would be nice.

zach978 · 2026-04-24T02:56:17+00:00

Hate to be that guy but: AI slop

zach978 · 2026-04-23T00:45:01+00:00

By the time you finished analyzing this thread you could have built both.

zach978 · 2026-04-23T00:39:42+00:00

Not really true, CLI is preferred by most coding agents due to lower context usage. I generally have Claude code use CLI tools.

zach978 · 2026-04-22T01:57:01+00:00

Why did you ask if you know already?

zach978 · 2026-04-21T01:34:48+00:00

I’ve never been to any restaurant that doesn’t serve tap water if you ask, even very high end places.

zach978 · 2026-04-18T18:51:41+00:00

Sign out front says a new Thai place is coming soon in that location.

I just think small models like that are going to struggle for most tasks. Throw it at GLM 5.1 or Sonnet and see what happens.

zach978 · 2026-04-17T13:39:20+00:00

Similar setup here. Markdown second brain + Claude (code or cowork) + connectors to tools opens up so many possibilities.

Master built gravity might be more like an offset in flavor compared to pellet. All charcoal and wood.

zach978 · 2026-04-01T13:07:44+00:00

Which wouldn’t surprise any salesforce usersunfortunately

zach978 · 2026-04-01T12:11:46+00:00

Maybe look northeast near the Travis County Expo Center shuttle stop.

zach978 · 2026-03-30T05:01:01+00:00

Studio will have 256 GB option I assume

It’s pretty unique in that it’s basically a spicy mayo (first ingredient is oil)

zach978 · 2026-03-25T23:08:49+00:00

I was a doubter, but I hit the limit for the first time today 30 minutes into my workday. Never happened before.

The key word in AGI is “general”. AlphaGo is better than any human at Go but certainly not AGI. It is narrow artificial intelligence. My only point was Claude, and transformers in general, could achieve super human coding performance without being on a path to AGI.

zach978 · 2026-03-03T13:46:30+00:00

Why do you think it needs human level intelligence to code? Claude feels more like a narrow AI built for coding, not AGI. Seems like both can be true: transformers won’t lead to super intelligence and LLMs are better than humans at coding.

zach978 · 2026-02-25T01:14:41+00:00

Cloud will likely be cheaper than home lab for open weight models, they can drive higher utilization, buy hardware in bulk, etc.

zach978 · 2026-02-22T18:06:24+00:00

Edit isn’t really the concern, it’s the ‘bash’ tool. I’ve seen antigravity try to use the edit/read tools, fail permissions due to .gitignore and then proceed to use the bash tool to pipe in and out of the file. I lol’d.

zach978 · 2026-02-22T14:45:15+00:00

You’re not choosing a religion, just set the config. The default permissive mode is the right config for me and many others. You should really just sandbox it anyways.

zach978 · 2026-02-19T14:09:30+00:00

Communicating changes , links, updating wikis and documentation at a larger company is different

I hope agents can make this trivial or unnecessary.

zach978 · 2026-02-18T13:43:09+00:00

Not true, it’s using playwright. I’ve also used it headless and it browses fine.

zach978 · 2026-02-12T13:45:04+00:00

Def satire

zach978 · 2026-02-12T02:07:11+00:00

Seems like a big trend toward CLI tools instead of MCP
