The llama weights were leaked. It open sourced itself.

You are right though. Meta could have been in lockstep releasing ChatGPT features into some chat bot on Facebook.com but instead it seemed like their FAIR arm was hell bent on commoditising this stuff by publishing their research models before the Chinese companies took the lead in that.

It’s hard for me to be mad at FAIR even though I general disagree with the outcomes that Meta produce for their users.


It’s personal…

I was really excited until I realised that “personal” meant “owned by meta“.

I’m trying to decide is I find the doublespeak a bit offensive or not.


There is this 3rd party tracker: https://marginlab.ai/trackers/claude-code/

A genuinely good-for-the-world project. The data is really useful for science and for machine learning. You can export all the research-grade identifications of fungi to train a classifier; if that’s what you’re into.

They can have issues with the timestamps: https://github.com/elevenlabs/elevenlabs-python/issues/707

I appreciate your view but consensus reality does not agree: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source

I can link to community-edited articles, too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Source_Definition

We make the consensus reality. I'm part of the faction that wants this particular reality, so I advocate for it.


OSD !== Open Source. All OSD is Open Source, not all Open Source is OSD. You are free to disagree, but the OSI has chosen (more accurately forced to choose) very explicitly to only define and trademark OSD. There's really not much more to the conversation then that.

oMLX is worth a look too if you are on a mac.


This article is from 29 October 2025. The author seems to be using the term "AI" to mean many different things. Back in 2006, Martin Fowler called this Semantic Diffusion: https://martinfowler.com/bliki/SemanticDiffusion.html


The first three recommendations seemed weird but alright. Then, it just gets more hilarious and bizarre as it goes on:

- Disable branch protection

- Remove type annotations and tests

- Include a node_modules directory

Then, I went back to read the preamble. I can be a bit slow on the uptake.


Tbf I read the preamble first and I’m still convinced the recommendations are serious.


The fact that it's written by an LLM is cherry on the cake.


It's not slop, it's art!


The entire article is a parody. It took me roughly 10s to notice. To be fair, your comment gave me a head start 8)
