I think for this kind of system to work, there has to be SOME kind of public/shared server to do the coordination. If the inviting node is behind a firewall then no amount of information can enable a guest node to connect to it without a node reachable by both.

Because they have “superhero serum”. Of course it doesn’t matter to you if you don’t want to achieve greatness, but some do.

Well. We will see about that. Wishful thinking can be cute.

USA will experience unprecedented prosperity from influx of global talents and capital who seek to amplify their productivity and profits by 10x.

Yes, that's what I meant. It's not that the Chinese will never be able to come up with models that superior --- it's simply that they will no longer have the incentive to open-source them once their models take the lead.

Training models are expensive. No one can do it for free for very long.

While that might be true, it is unlikely that open source models' capability will ever surpass frontier models --- if you have the best model (by some margin), then people will want to access it, even if it means going through compliance.

As a company it is your responsibility to ensure your contractors are compliant. So won't work.

Have you seen legitimate corporates use cracked software? If you do, then your competitors will report you; your employees will blackmail you. The risk is too great.

In the not so distant future, all your coding edits (for work anyway) will be through centralized gateways. Think remote desktop environment where pasting from the client is disabled.

The government will just claim that unsanctioned models have the potential to deliberately introduce security vulnerabilities when working on IT projects (e.g. be trained to strongly yet covertly favoring introducing compromised dependencies when you are not looking).

Then laws will be made to forbid organizations who use models other than those from the sanctioned labs to participate in critical projects on national security concerns.

All of a sudden, no business would risk using open source models anymore.

maybe to avoid getting their legitimate email servers banned by other servers since they host (i.e. being exploited) a growing number of spam accounts.

US will ban American companies from using Chinese models and also ban them from dealing with companies who use Chinese models. “Code produced by Chinese models may be deliberately introduce backdoors and vulnerabilities” that kind of thing.

So, browser = Java Runtime; uber HTML = applet?

If there are no young people to produce resources and care, your money is just numbers.

The fact that birth rate is so low in countries with good social security safe net suggests that the society isn't paying enough.

They will eventually converge --- it's only a matter of time.

Obviously going to depend on your definition of "decent". My impression so far is that you will need between 90GB to 100GB of memory to run medium sized (31B dense or ~110B MoE) models with some quantization enabled.

You sweat because you are working with the CLI. Git is intrinsically "graphical". Use a good GUI client or higher level interface (maybe jj) to manipulate git graphs --- stop worrying about "how" (i.e. wrangling with CLI to achieve what you want) and focus more on "what".

Nowadays I just ask my LLM butler to "organize outstanding changes into coherent commits". No new software needed.

I think skills are just a marketing ploy. There is nothing preventing a MCP from serving skills.
