@sriramk Thank you for the engagement and achievements!

We didn’t know you were this tall! Uyarndha Manithar 😀

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@cjzafir Good teaser, but why only teasers - release the model for user testing. Love to be a guinea pig with Hermes!

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@tonysimons_ I have probably 20 followers 🤣

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@sudoPhoeniX @NousResearch @Teknium I don't get the purpose of having it in mobile. May be I am missing something? Most tasks are compute intense and better to run it in a PC than heating up the pockets?

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@gmi_cloud My vote based on the visuals (don't know the details): Qwen is 1st.

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@Teknium That would be great, some of my projects can be just plugins than full blown project based on Hermes.

For example, a web IDE for coding is one. A dynamic UI/UX chatbot etc

.md

[Peter Yang @petergyang]

It's pretty annoying that Codex uses agents.md and Claude Code uses Claude.md.

There should be some industry standards to this stuff?

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@NousResearch @ChrisUniverse So you are not using GitHub copilot 🤣

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@Teknium @openclaw lol

Currently testing this with Hermes, let’s see…

Meet Gemma 4 12B!

@NousResearch

Where do you get your designs? Love your designs! Definitely there’s some following for that.

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

Hopefully someone in @github reads 100s of these messages. It definitely seems they don’t want this business anymore.

[Vijay Singh @vijaysingh_x]

GitHub Copilot just shifted to usage-based billing and it already burned through my entire month of AI credits in a single day.

What used to last a month now lasts a day. Now pay for extra credits or wait until the 1st.

Worst billing change ever, @github .

#githubcopilot

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@HedgieMarkets Buying directly from AI labs is a better option than GH copilot. I think they want to push everyone out of this tool.

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@LottoLabs @neverselling777 Any success in decent coding? I am not expecting some 3D CSS...just plain postgre and react based apps.

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@NousResearch @antoniomele101 This was a major blocker for corporate, now it is getting cleared.

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@outsource_

Is there a minimal setup guide to Hermes workspace in a corporate environment avoiding any network connection outside and run it 100% locally for data security? Some pages like skills access the internet.

A corporate version would be a great addition.

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

@wholemars Is this polymarket prediction? 🤣 I will take it.

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

From launching at the end of February to spotlighted by @NVIDIAAI @nvidia in their conference by the end of May - one of the biggest leaps in software engineering by a small open-source company @NousResearch is something amazing.

Congratulations to the team @Teknium @theemozilla and the entire Hermes community.

[Teknium 🪽 @Teknium]

A new era of PC is coming, I hear

[Balaji B @Balabo111]

I wasn't able to join last week. Here is the showcase of my project. There is a playground if anyone wants to try Hermes Agent for free. Every playground session is 30 min to give chance for others. If interested, give a star to the repo. Thank you!
