Opus 5 on Kimi K3 after doing a comparative test of its own work and Kimi's executed alongside each other, both in Claude Code, with the same prompt: "Kimi matched Opus on the stage that costs the most." "Kimi's D6 diagnosis is arguably better than Opus's" I've had poor luck with K3 on things […]

FFS. Just learned 124 Reg is now owned by GoDaddy. How I learned this? Their payment page causes Firefox to run out of memory just like GoDaddy.com Takes an exceptional level of incompetence. Any registrar recommendations, seeing as I clearly need to move my domains away from this […]

For some reason something possessed me to go to GoDaddy's website. Thankfully their website protected me against giving them any money by getting Firefox OOM killed. Yikes. Didn't know what I was thinking.

So 1 vote for "no, Kimi K3 is not beating Opus or Sonnet". After a night and a day of churning, K3 has managed to get almost exactly nowhere on optimising my compiler, on changes Opus at least has no problems with. But more than having problems with specific changes, I've had to babysit it from […]

Kimi CLI will actually write a /goal for you to drive a loop. Testing it now to have Kimi drive a brutal optimization loop to speed up the compiler, and it wrote a very nice, structured goal plan... We'll see how quickly I hit my weekly quota for my (highest level) Kimi subscription too (then […]

Strangely Kimi-CLI appears to have repeated the old Claude Code "re-print everything from the beginning of time" bug. It's now fixed in Claude Code. But Kimi-CLI is also Python vs. a Node JS (Claude Code), so it's not like they've directly copied it either (and Kimi CLI is pretty different).

I haven't seen this many butterflies at the same time since I was a child. Don't know it's an unusually good year for them here, or if we just have a more attractive selection of flowers this year. The white one seems to unimaginatively be named a "large […] [Original post on galaxybound.com]

Hit my weekly limit on Claude until Saturday..... Now time for Kimi to shine (or not) adding inlining support to my compiler.

P.S. since I've almost only posted tech stuff recently: I'm back to writing too. Turns out waiting for Claude to write code for me gives me extra time to think about novels... I *am* intending to finish Galaxy Bound 3, though I'll admit to having been side-tracked by other ideas too. I'm hoping […]

First type-inference attempt for my #ruby compiler is underway. It's likely to be brittle for a while, but it will enable very significant optimizations (e.g. de-virtualization of any method calls where it can be proven that the method does not get redefined, and the receiver type is known […]

Claude has more than doubled the speed of my self-compiled Ruby compiler over-night, partly because it knows x86 assembly better than me. #ruby #llm

Chat Control 1 is back. By a margin of 314-276, the EU Parliament voted to reject the legislation. However, since it was an urgent procedure, an absolute majority of 361 votes was required. As a result, the majority lost and Chat Control 1 passed. The urgent […] [Original post on mastodon.online]

Claude is now working on improving my Ruby compiler code-gen since so much more of rubyspecs is now passing and I felt like a change. It quickly eradicated 10k lines of pointless asm with a 1-line tweak... We'll see what a week of doing perf optimisations in a /loop end up looking like. #llm

I got to love how Google's Gemini is incapable of giving clear answers about Google's own documentation without inventing quotes and linking to third party documentation *and claiming they are official Google docs* (while also hallucinating what they say). At this point I'd frankly rather use […]

For simplicity, years ago, I made my Ruby compiler materialise a Proc for every block call - it's semantically valid and it saved me implementing block capture. But it has massive overheads anywhere where you only ever yield and don't need an object. How much overhead? Turns out that after […]

About 11k passing rubyspecs form my #ruby compiler now (in the core/ and language/ groups; not measuring library/ yet), which is ca. 1/3 through. All with a #claude burndown loop running for the last couple of weeks. Now, it's prone to picking off the easy bits first, so it doesn't mean it will […]

Down to 16 crashing failures in rubyspecs core/ and language/ directories for my #ruby compiler now, from 1050. The last 150 or so were Fable working overnight. #claude #llm

/usage: "100% of your usage came from sessions active for 8+ hours" /loop will do that... #claude #llm

Pleased to see #rubyweekly featured Skrift (my Ruby font renderer) this week.

In the last 10 hours, #claude got my #ruby compiler from 2195 passing Rubyspecs test cases to 4513... That's still awful (there are about 25k test cases total), though many are for obscure details - keeping in mind when it first self-compiled it passed only a few hundred test cases... But this […]

Former boss called me yesterday one day after he'd decommissioned the machine hosting a client's website to ask if we had any way of bringing it back (I help out occasionally on contract still). *facepalm* The site had been down for a month, and they knew it was due for deletion and they were […]

Over-night Claude Code with a /loop has driven Rubyspec compilation errors for my #ruby compilers from 150 files to 2. Many of the 148 unblocked test files are still going to fail at runtime; it's now started going through files that crash - there are still ca ~12k failing individual test cases […]

#Claude has taken over my machine for the moment, using Firefox to debug my new #Ruby X11 server. It knows to interpret the Firefox logs and crash dumps and has instrumented the server to see exactly what triggers it. It's surprising some of the ways FF […] [Original post on galaxybound.com]

This has been a 4 ice-cream day so far, and its only noon.

#Claude is has now added enough X11 requests to get Firefox to run in our #Ruby X11 server... Ca 1995 dialup rendering speeds, since Ruby is on every hot path including blitting, but it works. 2.1KLOC now. It's obviously never going to be fast without […] [Original post on galaxybound.com]
