It has a JSON mode that you need to enable in settings and then you can create a simple python script to interact with it or have the agent use `curl` and `jq` to interact with it.

It's at the bottom of this page: https://docs.searxng.org/admin/settings/settings_search.html

Different bubble than the one I was hoping for.

This appears to be different than the recent "Speculative Pipeline Decoding" paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.30852

Dwarkesh Patel has AI/ML guests on his podcast. BoorishBears may have been referring to the Jensen Huang episode where they discuss TPUs: https://youtu.be/Hrbq66XqtCo?t=982

> The training and deployment of LongCat-2.0 are built on large-scale clusters of tens of thousands of AI ASIC superpods. Compared to the mature Nvidia GPU ecosystem, the supporting software community is still less developed. We have therefore put significant effort into building a stable, secure, and scalable infrastructure.

This is the real news story. It looks like they may have used Huawei Ascend 910C chips: https://nitter.net/teortaxesTex/status/2071708141037781407#m

It really depends on your personal perspective on life. Consider the two statement and which one aligns more with yourself:

1. "It's better to regret something that you have done instead of something that you haven't done."

2. "I want to retire comfortably with a high level of confidence."

People in my life always advised me to follow the highest paying job. I'm not sure that was the right advice given my circumstances. It's really up to you.

This really sucks. Given how bad their regexes were in their leaked code, I am guessing this will get triggered all the time when I am fine tuning a model or doing work with datasets. The fact that there's no feedback means I can't trust the tools.

Just in case anyone is thinking about trying it: 25g seems pretty high. It’s worth it to review what that means for the rest of your body before starting this regime. Kidneys are really useful organs to have working.

Are you using Opus? Sonnet remains as useful as it was while Opus efficacy and token burn rate has soured over the last 4 months.

I have a suspicion most Libertarians are actually something else but who haven't realized it yet. When you really dig into it: idea of private property (as in owning land and charging people rent for using it) is akin to slavery (owning people and extracting labor from them). The pre-colonial indigenous structures of managing societies were much more aligned with my internal values but they are poorly defined in modern vernacular and we don't have a good "common vocabulary" to talk about how we might want to do things in a different way.

Same throughput with much less heat. Not sure what that extra 175w is going towards but it's diminishing returns.

They keep adding “fancy” UI and hijacking standard browser behaviour that is infuriating on a daily basis.

Please consider a lofi version for people that want to select text without navigating to a different page.

Looks like it may not have a package manager like apt or dnf:

> Can you please add wget, nano, $my_fav_app_omg_i_love_it to the root filesystem?

> No, not likely.

I am guessing the way to use software not already in the image is to use `docker run`.

It can be damn near impossible to break them out of some loops once they've committed. Gotta trim the context back to before the behaviour started.

If you buy a new MacBook Pro be prepared to ditch all of your duckhead adapters.

If you enjoy using a "Power Adapter Extension Cable" to extend your distance from the wall, then be prepared that you cannot buy one that fits the new prongs as Apple does not sell them.

I just got off the phone with their sales support and they recommended that I go to a hardware store and buy a regular extension cable.

I wouldn't label that arrogance. In my experience outside the USA, my GP has been unaware of new research / advice / guidelines published by the MoH. They generally respond to new info from reputable sources when you print it out and bring it to them.

I would expect specialists to be subscribed to journals and reading the latest articles in their field. When I saw a specialist at UCSF this was definitely the case; while my GP still has gaps where their current knowledge on a specific subject is from their time at med school.

An equivalence would be a front-end engineer being naive to the happenings on the Linux kernel mailing list. They could likely understand what's going on if they took the time to read it, but that is not their focus.

The GLM-4.7 model isn't that great. I was on their $200/month plan for a while. It was really hard to keep up with how fast it works. Going back to Claude seems like everything takes forever. GLM got much better in 5.1 but Cerebras still doesn't offer that yet (it's a bit heavier). I have a year of Z.ai that I got as a bargain and I use GLM-5.1 for some open source stuff but I am a bit nervous about sending data into their API.
