Nowadays, several things are mindblowing when encountered. This post captures such things as I see them.
- 20260621173014 - I just realized something about the debate on SpaceX IPO - one huge advantage SpaceX has over other big companies out there is that they have a surplus of compute hardware in a world with huge demand and scarcity of compute hardware. Am I wrong?
- 20260621161241 - Reddit’s AI that answers questions in reddit is pretty good - anecdotal fodder to support the claim that volume and quality of data determine effectiveness of models. I have avoided most native AI searches, except for docs of tools, etc. before - and with good reason - most of them sucked. Reddit is pretty good. Grok in X has been a long time favorite (asking grok in context within X or calling grok to ask about something in X), great to see reddit is also searchable.
- 20260621153840 - TIL a good list of agentic harnesses out there - https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills#supported-agents - in the npm package used to install skills across multiple agentic systems.
- 20260621145908 - Awesome agent conventions - a single place to get through the mess of different coding assistants and where they store and see different things from (system prompts, skills, etc.).
- 20260620200000 - Odysseus AI desktop chat app - from pewdiepie - exactly what I was looking for over all other desktop chat apps. The dialog has shifted from proprietary vs open models and agents to hosted open agents vs local open agents. Ran the same query (about flexible movie search alternatives) with huggingchat with GLM 5.2 gave me an excellent answer, but then odysseus with ollama/gemma4:31b-it-bf16 gave me an equally excellent response. And odysseus’ colors were a bit of an edge too. Note: is very new, so has a few bugs, but still highly recommended.
