very cool thanks for sharing.

Wow. As a comparison, I just opened a new Google Maps tab in Chrome. According to the Chrome Task Manager, the tab alone uses 433mb RAM and 34mb GPU memory footprint after first load.

I'd like to study your setup. Would you be willing to share? Perhaps a github repo of your 5 extensions or even a pastebin if you would be so inclined. I would be grateful to learn more about this by studying from your success...

Another hot take from him in 2018 is "Many people I respect here, lately identified Facebook as the root of all the evil. I want to start this thread about why I disagree..."

Per the "Availability" section of the page, seems like should come back to all plans eventually...

* From today through June 22, Fable 5 is included on Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise plans at no extra cost.

* On June 23, we’ll remove Fable 5 from those plans. Using it after that will require usage credits. If capacity allows, we’ll extend the included window.

* After this point—when sufficient capacity allows us to do so—we aim to restore Fable 5 as a standard part of subscription plans. We intend to do this as quickly as we can.

What's Google's business case for releasing open models? Don't get me wrong, I am grateful and appreciative of these releases. I'm trying to understand how it fits into their bigger picture as a for profit company? Are they not helping competitors build on the novel technology they have developed?

Is it simply goodwill and/or marketing? Or am I missing something strategic?

Anyone here remember the early days of WhatsApp, pre-Facebook, when it required an annual subscription fee of $1?

The table comparing eval scores shows the following:

Agentic Terminal Coding (Terminal-Bench 2.1) Opus 4.8 74.6% GPT 5.5 78.2%

Then, when you scroll all the way down to the bottom Footnotes section it says

"Terminal-Bench 2.1: We reported scores for all models using the Terminus-2 public harness. GPT-5.5’s reported score with the Codex CLI harness is 83.4%."

Can you share the GGUF for this specific success story? I'd like to try it for myself.

  >  It took two initial prompts and a few tiny follow-ups. GPT-5.2 running in Codex CLI ran uninterrupted for several hours, burned through 1,464,295 input tokens, 97,122,176 cached input tokens and 625,563 output tokens and ended up producing 9,000 lines of fully tested JavaScript across 43 commits.
Using a random LLM cost calculator, this amounts to $28.31... pretty reasonable for functional output.

I am now confident that within 5-10 years (most/all?) junior & mid and many senior dev positions are going to drop out enormously.

How do you know this happened? I thought it was an abandoned project until I saw this post. I've been diligently checking weekly for new releases but nothing for almost a year...

Had a similar issue - wanted to get all the files from the response without too much work, so I opened a new tab and vibe coded this in about 4 minutes. Tested it on exactly 1 case: a previous Sonnet 4.5 response, and worked well.

What would it take to get this on modern (or even last generation) phone hardware?

I bet we could do everything we want with tremendous simplicity and out of this world battery life... Probably would make a PinePhone feel like a Rolls Royce.

How are you going to centrally manage the meshing and transition between APs?
ethanpil

Does this type of setup support a mesh network with multiple APs and SSIDs, VLANs, etc? I have never seen a PC based all-in-one interface that supports all of these things the way Unifi does...
