Title of the post is not really about a breakthrough by AI but a human breakthrough plus an ongoing dispute where the authors claim OpenAI trained on their private chats and then tried to claim the proof as their own.

Something like “Tristan Buckmaster and Levent Alpoge on AI-assisted fluid dynamics proofs and OpenAI” would have been a more appropriate non clickbaity title.

The proof was not made by AI but AI was used to create it. For what I gather the OpenAI threw massive compute to try to front run the authors and proceeded to blackmail them.

This is a Millenium price proof btw.



In omp you can also have the advisor role, which is off by default, you can enable it with /advisor command. It acts as a model that reviews the default agent's work in the background.

I am omp pilled, but as the other comments say, any good harness lets you do this in one or the other way.

unrelated: all my homies use their claude subs with omp, and aside from sometimes having to rety the connections, it works, and nobody got banned (yet)


The cleaning cloth went down in price about 50%

There is some consolation there


Only because it doesn't contain RAM.


Don't give them any ideas


Moore's Cloth


But was the compatibility table updated?


A part of my brain can’t process acquiring a Mac Mini M5 Pro knowing that they sell M6 despite being aware that it is just a weaker processor.

It will get worse with the MacBook ultra rocking a M5 too.

Apple’s marketing department is gonna kill me.


Think about it maybe like:

I want a 2026 pickup truck. The dealer also sells a 2027 hatchback.

I am not shopping for a hatchback.


'They are an environmental catastrophe'

This for me the main source of concern. I am having a blast vibe coding. I understand my job is at risk. But I am totally oblivious to the fact that they are accelerating climate change.


If that's the main concern, wouldn't banning them from code sharing sites be harmful? If a person can create a project using AI and share it, then people can use their code without having to reinvent it. If it can't be shared, then anybody who wants that functionality will recreate it from scratch, and if they use AI to do so then you have now burned ~2x the compute=electricity=impact.


Vibecoders like to make all kinds of things that already exist, often don't care (or notice) if the AI rewrites everything instead of using what exists, and LLMs love to do that.


Okay, you can pick between 90% NIH with some sharing or 95% NIH because you tried to stop the sharing. The amount doesn't matter; you're still causing more AI use.


NIH? Anyhow you kind of cause more use of AI also if it seems that everyone is using it, and thus you should adopt it too.

And nothing actually prevents a vibecoder to clone a repository on SourceHut, they just would be less able to add a ton of crap to it and spit it back on SourceHut (they'll just spit it back on GitHub).

I guess that's also a plausible possibility. Honestly I mostly don't think sr.ht has enough market share to matter either way.


Right


FIFA is also a terrible employer

Got friends working for them as developers. They ran away. In months


It's wild how bad the experience is working for top level sports teams can be. Many (in the US at least) have an absolute lock on massive profits and value increasing like crazy ... but they operate like the cheapest small business that can't bother the new guy a chair that isn't broken.


Based on the quality of their World Cup ticketing website, I’m not surprised. That was the worst ticketing experience I’ve ever endured.


Are you talking about EA or FIFA?


Yes.


I did it, it’s possible.

It’s also a terrible experience. Pixelated. Laggy. Can’t see where the keyboard is… it’s half baked.

I can work max one hour then I give up.


Weirdly, the experience with Virtual Desktop on the Quest 3 is fast, high resolution, clean, and all that wireless on WiFi 7.


The resolution but specially the pass through is what kills it for me.

Fix those and I am a buyer, at any price.


Yeah, passthrough is pretty icky, for sure. I just take the headset off. It’s not good enough for passthrough.


i think the q3 and the avp have similar pixel density


The Apple Vision Pro has something like 23 million total pixels vs Quest 3 at 9.1 million total pixels. It's a pretty big difference.


The optics for the avp are noticably softer than quest3 https://kguttag.com/2024/03/01/apple-vision-pros-optics-blur...

so the screen resolution might be higher, the effective resolution is not so much.

The quest feels sharper for a lot of things. Apart from the rgb camera.

Either way, for me, they are both too lower resolution for useful text work. I can see the pixels and the size of the font I want starts to fall below the effective reolution.

I realise that this is not the case for a lot of people though


I keep on hearing it’s a flop, but where I live, Switzerland, they don’t sell it. So I can’t really say.

And I am not even talking about the badly taken product decisions for such a great headset but… how can they get devs onboarded for an app ecosystem for a device that can only be bought in a handful of countries?

Clearly Apple sold it and did their best so that it fails.


It's been 2.5 years and Apple still hasn't sold out of its test run of 500k units. About 350k of those sold in year 1, about 50k sold in year two, and less than 20K so far in year 3. Workers at Apple's flagship retail stores are saying they haven't sold one in recent memories. The tables displaying them are disappearing from stores. Roadmaps for all future goggles have been shelved. It's a flop and Apple knows it.


> It's been 2.5 years and Apple still hasn't sold out of its test run of 500k units.

I don't know why you would post something that is clearly not true? They released an upgraded version, sporting an M5, October 2025. They do not sell the original M2 version anymore.


The only thing you need to see is how many Apple employees use them. Answer, almost none

If it was amazing as a display for work then most Apple employees would be using them at work. It's not, so they aren't

If it was amazing as a movie viewer most Apple employees would be watching movies on them. It's not, so they aren't

repeat for any other use case.

Compare to iPhone/iPad/Mac, every Apple employee uses them. Probably included in that Airpods, Homepods, AppleTV, Apple Watch.


Have you gone around and surveyed Apple corporate employees to gather this insight? I’m amazed that your manager didn’t get a call from Apple security, if so.

They weren't handing out dev fused AVPs in sufficient number for anyone to do this when I left. And Apple software developers rarely buy their own hardware, why would you, when you get most of the hardware for free (and dev fused)?

It is true that buying one for use as an extra monitor was pretty niche at Apple Park. And it’s also true that everyone is crammed into shared offices where it would feel anti-social to be wearing one all the time.

So I’m vaguely aligned with you on the utility to the average dev, but your argument for why makes little sense.

FWIW almost none of my direct reports used HomePods, from your list of freely available devices, and grabbing an iPad for anything other than testing was maybe 50/50. And I don’t think you’d claim the iPad isn’t popular.


Fake news sorry please delete this post


Translation:

BREAKING: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei submits report to U.S. Congress: "After investigation, we have discovered that Kimi K3 may have distilled a model that Anthropic has yet to develop and complete."

Congressman presses: "Your model isn't even finished yet—how could it be distilled?"

Amodei: "That's exactly why we're holding this hearing."

AI safety field faces new challenge: Future Model Leakage


Preemptive: Anthropic intends to distil from Kimi, for a model Anthropic has yet to develop and complete.

Any similarities between their new model and Kimi, are because we all know that the Chinese copy. We know US AI companies never stoop to anything immoral.
