@elliotarledge Wow extremely impressive. Out of curiosity why did you choose 1.11.2? Obviously newer versions would be more complicated but how much more complicated?

[Hector @EcclesHector]

@im_slmn @zen_browser Out of curiosity how big is difference in RAM usage?

[Hector @EcclesHector]

@zen_browser Genuinely love this feature. Making the page no longer re-render is such a huge UX improvement as well.

@dwlz I wish they explained when different models should be used or what different models are good at. It's so intimidating picking which one to use, and I can't find anyone online who explains there differences.

@CodeByNZ Terminal commands make me feel important

[Hector @EcclesHector]

@sawyerhood Not sure of the use case here. Yes putting a LLM in your browser (instead of the cloud) lets you work alongside it. But in practice, most browser tasks are either simple enough to be done without oversight or complex enough I’d rather do them myself than craft a prompt.

[Hector @EcclesHector]

@thdxr This completely shifts my perspective on everything

[Hector @EcclesHector]

@_devJNS I’ve been really liking @zen_browser. Once I realized that true privacy is essentially impossible, I just started picking the browser that looked the prettiest. That being said, debugging weird edge cases or errors on a Firefox based browser is a nightmare.

@barre_of_lube as any then git push --force

These new image editing models are so useful as a photographer. Finally don’t need to pay for Photoshop just to remove a railing.

@prasenx Wait until you realize its all @FFmpeg

@venturetwins @denoisedreams Achieving true AI video realism will likely be extremely challenging. There so many subtle human nuances that when missing instantly make you realize somethings off.

However, AI video will 100% be useful for previz, allowing directors to convert their ideas into video in minutes

Join me LIVE on YouTube TONIGHT at 4 PM EST!

I'll be demoing TrueTrace, my Entrepreneurship Final Project, a new tool to tackle AI detection in education.

@sfmcguire79 I think people underestimate just how bad it is. Personally, in my final year of high school, I’ve had three essays flagged as AI-generated. These AI detection tools, which openly admit to having a false positive rate of 1%, are being treated as arbiters of truth.

@OpenAI Your nonprofit status isn't the point. The irony is that a Chinese hedge fund is being more "open" with AI than OpenAI. The only thing open about OpenAI is the chasm between your promises and your actions.

@godofprompt With Gemini 2.5 Flash running at 346 TPS using a model that runs at 58 TPS is difficult to justify, even if it is slightly smarter. That being said it is 1/5th the price so you are kind of getting what your paying for.

@RyanSAdams Sold all my ETH for USDT. When the Fed adopts blockchain for tax payments and every American needs USDT to pay their taxes, it’s going straight to $10 minimum. ETH is a dying asset, stay ahead or get left behind.

@Sokio8D XMR is one of the few currencies to be valued purely based on functionality. Crypto bros don’t care about it because there is no grand promise to revolutionize the world.

[Hector @EcclesHector]

@nigeleccles The future wide spread adoption of crypto will rely on the technologies built to obfuscate it because normies not only know very little but also dont want to learn

Had some free time so I created the higher lower game with only 56 characters.
Coolest features are:
1. The walrus operator ":=" allows assigning a value and using it at the same time
2. the id function allows for generation of a sudo random number
3. Slicing with booleans
