I applied for my dream role... FDE at @NousResearch I think I fit the "power user" description... 15 to 20B+ tokens, daily 9 AM to 2 AM. Been doing this unofficially for months with Hermes-Workspace.com (4,600+ ⭐ / 100K+ clones). Onboarding users to Hermes Agent daily, helping with agent swarms, skills, and orchestration patterns. If given the shot, I'd do it officially.

nothing i can do about 6 apps/services being down right now (see: @railway outage), but here's my plan for in the morning after i've had a fresh night of sleep... 1. move all web services to @Hetzner_Online 2. move all postgres databases to @digitalocean 3. manage it all with @hatchboxio i've got this exact stack for other things, so i'm exceedingly comfortable with it. will just be scaling it all up to handle more apps. all of the affected apps are rails + postgres.

@Teknium that’s the real reason. Intelligence is the new class system. Anyone who is “approved” automatically is a winner; for safety of course, but that’s not really true. It’s amazing how little people have talked about Mythos; they have no idea what the consequences are. Most people just don’t see the train until it’s on top of them. Mythos is the first leak in the dam that is AI as a benefit to society.

Anthropic's terrible safety situation is making it so that I cannot have Opus review p0 issues in Hermes Agent to review and help fix security issues. This does nothing but give hackers an asymmetric advantage over everyone - they will find jailbreaks, they will find ways around this to exploit systems - and the rest of us are locked out of using AI to protect from them. What a joke

@mmxyzzzz @museummommy @SawyerMerritt @SpaceX This is a worry. If Tesla merges before Optimus and Cyber Cab are fully baked our risk gets diluted. So if it happens in less 2 years it’ll suck unless the premium is astronomical.

I did this a couple months ago when I was using MinMax and since it’s just processes text, and I wanted it be able to send voice notes so I told the AI when you receive audio or photos, then send it to my LMstudio API for processing. It worked well enough but was just fun as an experiment; not really productive. I prefer using Codex or Gemma for multi-modal instead of MinMax.

@XFreeze What if Hermes Agent could transcribe voice messages directly without requiring a SuperGrok subscription suddenly?

You can also set up Grok Text-to-Speech and speech-to-text directly with Hermes Agent using your SuperGrok subscription through OAuth login Hermes can now transcribe Telegram voice messages directly through Grok’s speech-to-text engine

لبناني مُسنّ في كندا، وتحديداً في مدينة ويندزور بمنطقة واياندوت، أوقف سيارته لفترة قصيرة جداً، والدليل أن زوجته وأولاده كانوا لا يزالون داخل السيارة، أي أنه ابتعد قليلاً فقط وكان سيعود مباشرة. وفجأة، أتى أحد أصحاب المحلات (ركزوا على اسماء المحلات في الخلفية فهي واضحة)، وطالب الرجل بدفع ٤٠ دولاراً بحجة أن الوقوف ممنوع، بعدما قام بتكبيل السيارة بينما كانت عائلة الرجل العجوزبداخلها! ولم يوافق على فك التكبيل إلا بعد دفع المبلغ، مع تهديد الرجل بالاتصال بالشرطة أو بشركة القطر لسحب السيارة. الرجل اضطر للتجاوب مع الأمر، لكن الصدمة كانت عندما اكتشف أن الشخص الذي كبّل سيارته وهدده هو أيضاً لبناني، وهذه كانت ردة فعله👇🏻 برأيكم، من المخطئ في هذه الحادثة؟ وهل ما جرى يُعتبر تطبيقاً للقانون أم استغلالاً واستفزازاً مبالغاً فيه؟

Why do people feel someone still collecting a paycheque for free should be given the opportunity to work for someone else @BruceMcCurdy? I don’t know why people play this out like he’s a victim. Also I think he can cancel his contract under employment law he is likely able to take them to court and have the contract cancelled as illegal.

@Fan6969Sens @GreeceIceHockey @spittinchiclets It’s an embellishment and it was deliberate contact by the player. Both can be true at the same time, but most referees don’t care too much about a goalie embellishing vs being run in game 7

I’m looking @ RundownAI and wondered does anybody have any AI communities they would actually recommend because they’re elite for networking, elite for courses? Paid communities only that are premium focused.

@wesbos Most of the USB C ports pulling off 12V are stuck at 2.5 amps which is kind of why they suck. You can wire better options, I did so in my truck - but the reason has to do with them being cheap about the harness.

I gave up with this, and I'm returning the computer. Here is what I did: 1. Updated the BIOS 2. Updated the EC 3. Added Geekom's recommended boot parameters to the kernel Since none of that worked, I tried to disable 'suspend' completely, but I couldn't. There was always a situation when the computer went to sleep and died. It's unfortunate, but this makes it unusable for me.
Santiago@svpino

Turns out, Linux can't put this computer to sleep. Apparently, there's a bug and no solution. I've spent two days trying to disable sleep, but any time I lock the computer, it dies. This is exactly the problem with Linux: most hardware makers just don't care.

@Teknium @spettrotoken @grok They are just lying to generate hype. They haven’t even shipped new code in weeks; how would it even be possible to keep pace with Hermes innovation if that’s the case.

Its official, this is a war against Hermes. I'm now running over 200 benchmarks Hermes vs Spettro First proof is that Hermes doesn't support many AI providers Hermes doesn't support Grok. How can they post on X if their own tool is not capable of leveraging the amazing @grok features? Spettro supports grok since v0.1, don't let them fool you, the limited amount of providers means a limited amount of capabilities. Spettro gets another point against Hermes.

Ok. The non-partisan view. Left: subsidies will make things more accessible. What happens is demand increases and ancillary events make this untrue. In education what happens is prices rise. In Canada what happens is that seats to people with less economic affluence don’t make the cut. Right: De-regulate the market, but the problem is the market is highly regulated so this drives up prices, few lenders, few suppliers etc. If prices fell all that would happen is that educational institutions would consolidate or larger ivy leagues would accelerate what they are already doing which is eventually total domination of online education. The challenge is that the market is mixed between regulation; regulation picks winners, and consolidation which fixes a bunch of losers or regulation which always sounds good on the surface but typically makes things worse. Freakonomics I believe talks a lot about how actions and reactions can be harder to predict. It’s not directly related but it may help you envision how situations like this can go terribly wrong despite best intentions. I wrote this fast with my kids around and Siri so I hope it was helpful

Until you see him roll out cybertaxi nationally or apply for it nationally because he’s ready to launch then you won’t get a drop of effort. There are likely lawsuits from car owners from many years back that are going to claim he falsely claimed it was around the corner. The “lite” talk is holding back those claims because it’s hard to award damages until it’s delivered. So he is doing the smart thing; get cyber out, get that rolling even for 6 months then circle back to =< HW3 and take the lawsuit, settle and move on. If he launched lite now he’d invite the lawsuits while trying to roll out two of their biggest product initiatives ever; cyber and the robot. It took me a little bit to realize there was a reason for the delay which hasn’t happened before. Also I don’t think it’s malicious, it’s just the circumstances that surround him; he’s been very open about it and if he wanted to dodge it he could have said many smarter responses but I think he genuinely thinks helping those who helped him is important. When he talks about the days of sleeping on the factory floor it was the same ideological pov; if you ask your team to sacrifice then he should also sacrifice and that’s what drove him to sleep on site. He’s been open about it, others have confirmed it. He’s many things as we all are but he’s pretty direct about what he thinks and feels about everything.

@scottcjordan @SawyerMerritt I am not naive to think we will get the full capability, but we have been hearing for a long time now that an optimized “lite” v14 was coming and/or a hardware upgrade. Nothing. Last I heard now was end of June. Believe it when I see it.

Tesla FSD V14.3.3 just started rolling out, and it comes with the Spring Update! Actually Smart Summon’s top speed has also been increased to 8 mph (from 6 mph)! Downloading it on my Model Y right now. Software version 2026.14.6.6.

What's the point of buying a DGX Spark for $5k? Imo to fully unlock the potential you need at least two, that's already $10k Mac Studio M3 Ultra 256GB for $7.5k looks like the better play. It's faster and all in one box The only reason is that it just looks cool af What am I missing?

When Elon (eventually) dies the structure should change because he’s the king you love not the dictator that comes afterwards. This is good for everyone who’s bought into the mission and trust Musk, but no one that comes afterwards will have earned that level of trust and there should be a plan that his estate relinquishes the 10x voting power when he steps down from Ops or dies, whichever comes first.

Yes, I need to make sure SpaceX stays focused on making life multiplanetary and extending consciousness to the stars, not pandering to someone’s bullshit quarterly earnings bonus! Obviously, IF SpaceX succeeds in this absurdly difficult goal, it will be worth many orders of magnitude more than the economy of Earth, but don’t expect entirely smooth sailing along the way.
