Do you have plans to port your proprietary library MetalRT to mobile devices? These performance gains would be a boon for privacy-centric mobile applications.

Yes, mobile is our primary offering and it is on the roadmap. The same Metal GPU pipeline that powers MetalRT on macOS maps directly to iOS (same Apple Silicon, same Metal API)

Yes.

I don’t agree that it’s a nitpick - it’s a fundamental communication tool to users that describes capabilities and costs. Versioning is not the problem, but it amplifies the mess.

To be more direct on the point: Anthropic has nailed that Opus > Sonnet > Haiku.

Holy cow I never realized and I had to keep checking which model was which, I never had managed to remember which model was which size before because I never realized there was a theme with the names!

How is this more clear than 5.4 > 5.2 > 5.1?

OpenAI used familiar numeric versioning instead of clever word names. Normally this choice would appeal to software devs, not gather criticism.


I assume 5.4 is just the latest version. So if I'm on 5.1, I need to plan to upgrade to the latest version. I may assume the pricing is roughly the same, as well as the speed, and the purpose.

If I'm on Haiku, I don't assume I need to upgrade to Opus soon. I use Haiku for fast low reasoning, and Opus for slower more thoughtful answers.

And if I'm on Sonnet 4.5 and I see Sonnet 4.6 is coming out, I can reasonably assume it's more of a drop in upgrade, rather than a different beast.


Prod model suite: GPT-5.4, GPT-5.4Thinking, GPT-5.4Pro, GPT-5.3-Codex, GPT-5.3-Instant, GPT-5.2, GPT-5mini, GPT5-nano, GPT-4.1mini GPT-4o(Omni), o4-mini, o4-mini-high.

Devoid of logic and structure.

They can't even decide where to place hyphens: is it GPT-5.4 Pro or GPT-5.3-Codex?


People are building for themselves. However I’d also reference www.Every.to

They built the popular compound-engineering plugin and have shipped a set of production grade consumer apps. They offer a monthly subscription and keep adding to that subscription by shipping more tools.


My iPad Pro must by the model ahead of yours. I just upgraded the OS to v26 and it’s awful - sluggish, jittery, inconsistent typing experience - borderline unusable for a fast work environment. With no downgrade option I’m forced to buy a new one for work and relegate the older device to entertainment or kids use only.

Being stuck on v17 is a feature for the older A-series chipset.


I'm in the same boat. Thankfully, I only use my iPad for watching videos while I'm cooking, but if were using it for anything else, I'd have to replace it.


Vibes should be all fixed ;)


Thanks, they're just screenshots and fluff. I'll take them down temporarily.


Looking at the current benchmarks table, I was curious: what do you think is wrong with Samsung S25 Ultra?

Most of the standard mobile CPU benchmarks (GeekBench, AnTuTu, et al) show a 20-40% performance gain over S23/S24 Ultra. Also, this bucks the trend where most other devices are ranked appropriately (i.e. newer devices perform better).

Thanks for sharing your project.


great observation - this data is not from a controlled environment; these are metrics from our Cactus Chat use (we only collect tok/sec telemetry).

S25 is an outlier that surprised us too.

I got $10 on S25 climbing back up to the top of the rankings as more data comes in :)


Essentially, yes. Different DB’s, federated queries (aka delta sharing, zero copy), definition/semantic layer tools, data engineering/pipelines, model training and notebooks, governance, data lineage, row/column/whatever access control.

It’s basically a luxury minivan. It’s may not be the fastest or prettiest or cheapest, but it’s a safe way for a large family of “data and AI people” to traverse a large organisation.

More seriously, I like to call it an “analytics workbench” in a professional setting.


Loss aversion is a major factor in behavioural economics that explains why people act this way.


Seems to be an instinct.

A lawyer told me, this is how you scam people. Mainly Medical Doctors. Pitch an investment to them. They don't bite. Then mention, that they will save taxes with this investment, and they will say: Where do I have to sign?


It’s a cloud IDE, with 1-click deployments, a great code-focused LLM, and can be used from almost any device. Agree the home page can be tightened up, but if any of that sounds interesting, just give it a try.

I’m a hobbyist coder (not full time dev), and it’s been wonderful for me. Zero time to set up an environment (this is the huge one for me), super easy pushes to prod, and I can use my PC or iPad to code equally as effectively (really).
