... to instantly scroll away-... such that the algorithm doesn't pick up your real preferences. And I find that just to, at the meta game of TikTok-... to be pretty interesting, and then also just fascinating in themself. Again, as we talked about, there are a lot of really funny, really talented people in the world that…
`3:23:00`
I thought they had a good comeback for a second, and then I don't hear anything about it anymore.
`3:23:06`
But I've been wrong about this before. I mean, I think in February I had a tweet about like, "Oh, all I need is Kimi K 2.5." And in that brief moment…
`3:23:46`
No, I don't think there's that much of an argument at the moment. Codex is very good. I use it all the time. It's my favorite checker. It keeps finding stuff. It's great. But one of the things I've found that I like so much about the current Claude models is they…
You can no longer use your Claude subscription in OpenCode. I was kinda pissed because it felt like it was a protective, protectionist move. "Oh, we gotta lock you in," and of course it played into the fact that Claude out of the box still refuses to read agents.md. It refuses to read.agent/skills. It is.Claude skills…

I had an essay it didn't want to translate into Italian--
`3:26:41`
The essence of the post that it felt like, well, I'm not gonna translate that because I don't agree with what you've written. Which to me was straight out of Space Odyssey, right? HAL telling me, "I'm sorry, Dave. I can't do that, Dave." Open the pod bay. Translate my essay to Italian. And it…
I could just go like, okay, well, on that topic we either disagree or, even worse than that, I think you're a fucking idiot. And on another topic, you're a smart and insightful person. Because first of all, of course, it's a little self- serving. I know for a fact that this is how lots of people…
And it's also nice to have open weight models. So this is, again, ironic that we're getting this out of China. In fact, I did this test right after the issue with the essay that couldn't get translated into Italian. I asked Kimi K27, to be fair, through open code, so not the Kimi harness, and inference…
`3:30:31`
It's still very muddy what exactly transpired. Was this sort of petty retaliation for whatever the Department of War? Was this simply Anthropic themselves going like, "Oh my God, we discovered a cyber weapon so powerful that we can't let anyone have it"? Well, okay you can't be surprised then if the government wants…
`3:31:21`
That's why we should insist on the fact that this stuff, like, I'm sorry, Dave, I can't translate your essay into Italian.
`3:31:28`
That's abo- that's way beyond the line. Like, whatever the sort of uh, root of it is, you have to be a tool first. Now, if the…
`3:32:25`
Is AI safety important? Yes. Are-- do these models have capabilities that could be seriously harmful in the production of biological weapons or otherwise? Yes. Is it fair to have some ground rules on that? Yes. But then don't squander it by denying the translation of an essay.
`3:32:44`
Because then you erase the whole thing and you-... bias everyone towards thinking like, every guardrail you put up is gonna be bullshit.
`3:33:01`
Shockingly an- I was about to say annoyingly, but that's not actually true because what it's finding, at least when you're using in defensive ways, is it's…
`3:33:59`
I do think that all the aggressive tendencies of these models, or not even tendencies, uses of these models are also the defensive ones. So if you're good at finding an exploit for exploits, you're also good at finding exploits for defense. So in that sense, it does feel like we're spy versus spy…
`3:35:19`
This stuff is gonna come, and it's gonna come in bulk. But again, I choose to be optimistic about it that-... whatever these models can do aggressively, they can also do it defensively.
`3:35:42`
It's a hell of a milepost for what's possible at the moment. And the reason I said it like that is not that I haven't worked on anything else of note. I've worked on a lot of things of note, a lot of things that I'm very proud of. There are very few other projects…
But in the beginning, all code bases that I've almost all of them that I've worked on, I started, like, just myself. And Quattro started as a team effort right from the get-go, and where I was just the coach. I was telling us-- I was telling the agents where to go, and we would go. So…

Linux on the desktop-... every year. Next year again.
`3:38:58`
Not only can I see it, I find it to be the most probable outcome at this point. It is simply too well-suited for the moment. And again, as we talked about, it's a great irony that all the flaws of Linux, the…
`3:40:35`
He wants to steer it. He wants to make sure it's good and whatever, but I- the line was something if you think, uh, Linux is an anti-AI project, think again, and you should just do the open source thing and fork it, because we're gonna use AI. And you see these graphs of…
`3:41:41`
I think it's hard for people to switch when there's not a compelling reason to do so. This was one of the driving design goals for Omarchy. It was not gonna be Timo Windows or Timo Mac. It was not just gonna be a cheap copy where we try to make it as familiar as…
You tell the computer these arcane commands, this rigid logical structure, and it produces what you want. Now suddenly, you sit down and in plain English ramble for 20 minutes. "Oh, it'd be great if it did that. Actually, no, that's not right. Let us..." And out comes software. Out comes an operating system shaped in your image…
