A summary of the dispute in which chardet's original author argues that the LGPL-to-MIT relicensing was invalid, and the formal launch of the React Foundation under the Linux Foundation. Two very different cross-sections of OSS governance.
A summary of GPT-5.3 Instant’s hallucination reductions and safety regressions, GPT-5.4’s computer use, Tool Search, and 1M-token context, plus Saguaro’s 5× inference speedups.
Using tori29umai’s LoRA to automatically split facial parts, results from batching 28 images, and a log of running into the limits when attempting finer hair separation
Running LTX-2 and Wan 2.2 on an M1 Max 64GB. FP8 doesn't work on Metal, bypassed with GGUF. Wan 2.2 takes 82 minutes for a 2-second video. LTX-2's official pipeline produces NaN on MPS, and the KSampler fallback doesn't reach usable quality.
All variants of huihui-ai's Qwen 3.5 abliterated produced garbage tokens. GLM-4.7-Flash abliterated had a broken chat template. The official version with thinking disabled turned out to be the right answer.
Right after Seedance 2.0 launched, a torrent of Hollywood IP infringement flooded social networks. Disney, Netflix, and Paramount sent cease-and-desist letters; the API release was postponed indefinitely, and face-cloning and person reference features were disabled.
After a macOS update, tmux sessions started by cron lost access to the Keychain, causing Claude CLI batch jobs to silently fail. Diagnosing the issue, the fix, and why this is a structural macOS Keychain problem rather than a Claude CLI bug.
Experiment log: from LUKE/BERT fill-mask fine-tuning, to perplexity-based error detection, to Qwen2.5 7B correction judgment with human escalation on mismatch. A complete pipeline running on a single RTX 4060 Laptop with 8GB VRAM.
From Docker hell to Lite + LLM correction. A retrospective on my own experimentation, plus an introduction to someone else's browser-based NDLOCR-Lite implementation.
Set up the CLI version of NDLOCR-Lite on Apple Silicon Mac, then tested OCR result correction with Qwen 3.5 and Swallow. Includes experiments with direct image reading and the anchoring effect.
