> only for Masimo’s patents.

Sorry but there's no such thing as "only patents", these are often what companies live and die for.

The handwaving of Apple wrongdoings have no limits.

Yeah I cannot feel any sympathy for either companies here.

They all do this exact thing, including Apple. OpenAI was just the last one to get caught.

And if OpenAI uses this hardware information to bring less locked hardware to the masses, wishful thinking I know, then more power to them.

If AI keeps improving, it is very important to make sure everyone gets at least a smidge of a chance of equal access to AI otherwise the income disparity will grow even more. And Apple is the last company in the world to think of the masses. They sell $1000 aluminium monitor stands: https://www.businessinsider.com/apple-monitor-stand-price-re...

This post obliterated any chance I had to use or condone Zig commercially. If this is how Zig leadership thinks and acts, plus their stance on AI and GitHub, I'm afraid that the language will stay archived as a neat PL research project in my mind.

And maybe it's what Andrew wants.

I suspect some of those that try to downplay the personal attacks are either on the spectrum or just not acting in good faith.

And he was right!

Not to mention he was attacking an opaque corporation, not a single person like this blog post does.

> Would you argue that Chez Scheme (to pick a random example) isn't a "serious programming language"?

Commercially speaking? Absolutely not a "serious programming language" in this context.

If someone tries to implement a project using Chez Scheme, they better have agreat reason to not use mainstream boring language.

I would love to have an unprofessional embarrassment project like Bun on my portfolio.

It seems to trade blows with GPT 5.5 and Opus 4.8 in performance while being cheaper than GLM 5.2.

It seems the reports of Bun's death have been greatly exaggerated.

> he trigger was watching deepseek-flash fail on the simplest /review run, every shellCommand and readFile call bouncing back with a raw zod issues blob, the model unable to recover because the error wasn't in a form it could read. by the end deepseek v4 pro was beating opus 4.7 6/10 times on our internal evals.

I think this is why Xiaomi forked OpenCode and created their own agent hardness, to reduce friction between model and harness:

From what I understood, the gist of it is that uses a bunch of skills in a loop to help LLMs solve the tasks better via browser-testing, debugging, visual-testing, etc..

The skills can be found here:

Question that was left unanswered:

How much longer does a 4x DeepSkeep loop took compared to Opus?

"Fable" is the new "Rust".

If your HN title contains "Fable", you get instant upvotes just because, regardless of merit.

yeah, and might as well ban Chinese models too for safety since they can do the same.

This looks like the usual https://threejs.org animation built by LLMs.

I'm more interested in:

- The correctedness of the data and if it was reviewed.

- The skills and challenges while building it. Was it a one shot? Did it had a feedback loop?

Kudos to you.

Every time I try to vibe code myself to sleep I blink once and it's 5am. Creating is too much fun.

Any tips?
