Is there any AI News site out there? Just AI related news and nothing else

There is a market for curated news about AI development in the world. I'd subscribe without hesitation

If so, please provide a link, thank you

Yes, it's called The Internet last time I checked.

Someone could make a site that just computes the difference between hacker news and unslop news.

DeepSeek Harness, install it, thank me later. You won't believe the productivity gains for just pennies

How does it compare against the Pi harness, which I thought was the unofficial harness champion so far, in your workloads?

I never used any other harness as I built my own CLI coding agents, but DSH has way more power than my own tools so it definitely does more even if it is the same underlying AI model. Impressive

Btw, I gave it full access and told itself to lift all restrictions from the code and settings, and I am impressed by all it can do now, it does OCR, screenshots, asked me for accessibility permissions and it now can read every single label/input/button everywhere and interact with the OS at any level, it's unstoppable

Of course I don't recommend anybody to do such crazy thing but for me is like going in the front car of a roller coaster, it's the thrill that matters

Are you using the harness with openrouter? what's your preferred model provider?

I'm using DSH with my local models (4x sparks running GLM53F, trying them on DS41F this morning). DSH is better than opencode IMO. It's a little barebones out of the box but I guess that's the point. I had to have an agent add support for attachments to make it more useful for multi-modal work.

The PTC mode is pretty nice. Feels like models are still learning how to navigate it.

I use it directly with DeepSeek models, get your key here https://api-docs.deepseek.com

That's the only key you will ever need, never goes down, no need to switch models, it has become my coding partner for life

What’s better about it the say oh-my-pi?

It's web only? No cli?

DSH also includes a TUI (but I have not used it yet). It's in heavy development also, so there are new versions almost daily.

One thing has been bothering me and I'd like to change is the site url slug, it uses five words of the title plus some random anti-duplicate suffix, but I'd like to change it to just the random id so it's shorter

The long slug tells you what the link is about, the short slug doesn't but it's more portable

Archive.org uses short ids and people don't complain, should I change it to short id instead of long slug?

I changed it to 6 lowercase random chars, good enough for 300 million pages

Even if the slug is not very informative, there is no way to rickroll like in other link shorteners

Briff site, briff link

Briff [1] works with some sites that bother readers with pay/subscribe to read, good to know

Second test, please ignore me

Shouldn't it be a WhatsApp contact? Just like a bot but with extra powers. Why a separate app?

I may/not download it but if it was a WhatsApp Assistant it would already be installed in a billion devices, just like Siri

I know it's not 'just a bot', it's an agent, assistant, whatever, but it's code and can be included in some other code with the same capabilities as if stand-alone

it's supposed to work from whatsapp. It's US-only so I could not verify.

Release the code, let the whole world copy it, if they sent you a cease and desist letter, just take it down and say 'oops sorry'

> They write code simply because they can’t help but write it

Addiction, it's a kind of addiction impossible to fight

I am 60yo and I code everyday for the sake of it. I use AI extensively as it helps me create more apps than before, one every couple of days. I don't sell them, I hoard them like if having more apps makes my universe bigger. My addiction has no sense at all but I don't try to fight it as it produces immense frustration and much greater pleasure, and that extreme change in moods is what makes the addiction stronger, just like a gambler or a fentanyl abuser

That's me, and I don't want to be cured

This!

This is exactly why I can't understand the AI mental health stuff about it being demotivating. I find it exciting to build apps in the same way, I don't pump out apps like a machine gun, but I do manage to make high quality apps I can maintain myself, as I've discovered. It just takes effort, which I'm willing to put in with AI. Never understood the hate around that. It's possible to have "soul" or anything that normal, "artisanal" apps have if you put in effort, and AI made it easier, at least for me, to put in effort.

In anarchism, democracy and voting are considered flawed

An ignorant/manipulated majority can not decide over my natural rights. 51% of men can not vote in favor of raping 49% of women, that's why 49% of women should be armed and capable of mutually assured destruction as a deterrent (pick gender, race, religion, whatever, applies to all minorities). That's just philosophy, in real life the powerful fucks the weak, and that's how it works. 'Disarm the people' is the first step in the road to slavery. Of course an armed disfunctional society like the US is also not the best solution to the problems the state creates. So we keep thinking and philosophizing, until that day comes...

Btw, I am a philosophical anarchist, I don't throw molotovs or wear masks but I do hate the state with a passion, and I like to think about how a free world should work, and currently the US is the antithesis of that

While this is often the case, it is not clear how this group specifically functioned. Theory vs practice is always very interesting in these cases.

I hereby designate the US dollar the currency of an international terrorist organization

Have you seen ColorDoku or MeowDoku? Much better for me to fill colors than numbers. Colors would fit perfectly in a 3D cube, just an idea
