Former L8 engineer at Meta, Microsoft and Atlassian, now writing and building solo on agentic engineering. Writes Kun's Field Notes and posts a lot about AI coding agents on X.
every model provider should learn from meta's pricing model for muse spark, with fully transparent subsidization labeled for the contributor tier stop doing "in order to use our model at a good price, you must use our harness which secretly collects your data and/or upload your codebase" meta clearly proved there's a way to collect training data without relying on a harness. just be transparent about when you collect data vs not, clearly communicate how much the data is worth, and give the choice to the user and i really don't need your harness. i already have SO MANY state of the art harness… Related

@RecDiffs @siracusa @hotdogsladies That Italian guy pronounced “Samhain" and “Siobhán” really quite well. If you want some cheap entertainment, try a perfectly normal Irish word such as “tábhachtach”, which means "important”. Like your Northern and Southern Italians, the dictionary link provides three pronunciations labeled “C”, “M”, “U”, for Connacht, Munster, and Ulster Irish, the three main provincial accents/dialects. (I'm from Munster so I pronounce it properly.) focloir.ie

Our bug autofix loop in @linear has fixed 300+ bugs in the last 30 days. The team set it up as part of triage: it connects to Datadog and Sentry to investigate issues, then assigns them to Linear’s coding agent to fix Related

Latvian full-stack WordPress developer and course creator at WPElevator; blogs since 2007 about the open web, electronics, home automation and sustainable living.
During the weekend I built a contextual search tool for a photo library with 42k images across 2.8k galleries. The results are amazing! Turns out the AI models that generate embedding vectors from images directly are BAD at capturing the image contents, so I had to first generate captions and then generate the embeddings for the captions instead. Total cost: $30 for both captions (gpt-5-mini) and embeddings (text-embedding-3-large with 3072 dimensions). OpenAI Related

Stronger models have made finding vulnerabilities easier, and the bottleneck has shifted to verification, triage, patching. Here are some lessons from working with security teams to address the new bottlenecks. claude.com

Their words
They make beer. They labeled the beer, and the temple that would make the beer, the beer would be attributed to that temple. It would be sold, so that temple rises in status, makes money. That's how hierarchies started up.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
