@dhh What i found is that chatgpt loves to do typechecks, didnt even mention it in my prompts and it always do it, so that speaks on itself on what agents actually needs or do.
English
Agents don't need types. They're perfectly capable of pulling off incredible refactorings without. Give them a linter and a test suite, and you have all you need. Token efficiency is where it's at.

I like types. Types align with my brain waves; they help me create better code. TS/Rust are my tools of choice. When using agents, though, that doesn’t matter as much. I asked OpenCode to build me a simple CRM recently using Ruby on Rails. It came back INSANELY GOOD. One prompt, 15 minutes, database migrations, form validations, authentication, a nice backend structure - the works! Ruby and Rails have been around forever. That makes a huge difference for agents. The older and more proven the tech, the better the result you get from the agent. That is also why Linux has suddenly become such a joy to use.

Casey Schmitt is diving into first base with a 3 run lead. Give me 9 Casey Schmitts. That guy cares.

@theo i watched gemini 3.5 flash and composer 2.5 attempt your fishslop bench, just curious if/where you have tested SOTA like 5.5 or opus against it?

@kennethreitz42 i'm first to like this gem? i thought this would have thousands- nice post kenneth

@ItsNotPaths @crackticker It's more like an undercooked, manually setup shell of a desktop environment. The breadth of stuff you have to enable back to have things actually work makes it not worthwhile, just use kde

@CilvisNova @vxunderground agreed i think people use brick too loosely, bricked should mean bricked
English
@vxunderground I don't even think it bricks the device. It just temporarily disables it after it attempts to read protected memory and the process of reconfiguring it to work again is just annoying

This is a really interesting thread.
Based on this post, the quoted-post, comments, subsequent posts, and sub-threads, gamers seem to not to understand:
- What Direct Memory Access (DMA) means
- What "kernel-mode" means
- What an anti-cheat really does
- What a computer is

@ptrve @ecombeckett caps+hjkl in keyd for linux has been mine for years, don't even leave the home row
English
@ecombeckett cool idea but you don't need backspace on such premium real estate. map right cmd + hjkl to arrow keys and then you still have room to play with

@werwt5yvh @jackmhny @growing_daniel @mylordcod It's clearly below where people start to pay attention to it. But it is not some 'tiny' model that has just been trained to beat all the popular benchmarks.
The model is approximately at November 2025 SOTA level.
It should be possible for them to iterate on it.

@Vincent38841011 @2disbetter @Jonathan_Blow emacs, tex, vi, x11, perl, bash, python, apache, gimp
all 30-50 years old; guess that's not sustainable enough though 😭

@2disbetter @Jonathan_Blow Linux Kernel?
Git?
Kubernetes?
Firefox?
Blender?
VLC?
Crazy work to say some of the most important & successful programs of all time aren't sustainable.

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.
