π r/Yorkshire Harrogate and Knaresborough rss
Hello hivemind.
I'm visiting Harrogate and Knaresborough for a day or two with my boyfriend soon.
What are some decent pubs and bars, and quirky or weird or artsy things to do while we're there please? Looking for recommendations of the things that a tourist can't just google, or the things that while obvious are still absolute musts!
Thanks in advance!

π Simon Willison I vibe coded my dream macOS presentation app rss
I gave a talk this weekend at Social Science FOO Camp in Mountain View. The event was a classic unconference format where anyone could present a talk without needing to propose it in advance. I grabbed a slot for a talk I titled "The State of LLMs, February 2026 edition", subtitle "It's all changed since November!". I vibe coded a custom macOS app for the presentation the night before.

I've written about the last twelve months of development in LLMs in December 2023, December 2024 and December 2025. I also presented The last six months in LLMs, illustrated by pelicans on bicycles at the AI Engineer Worldβs Fair in June 2025. This was my first time dropping the time covered to just three months, which neatly illustrates how much the space keeps accelerating and felt appropriate given the November 2025 inflection point.
(I further illustrated this acceleration by wearing a Gemini 3 sweater to the talk, which I was given a couple of weeks ago and is already out-of-date thanks to Gemini 3.1.)
I always like to have at least one gimmick in any talk I give, based on the STAR moment principle I learned at Stanford - include Something They'll Always Remember to try and help your talk stand out.
For this talk I had two gimmicks. I built the first part of the talk around coding agent assisted data analysis of KΔkΔpΕ breeding season (which meant I got to show off my mug), then did a quick tour of some new pelicans riding bicycles before ending with the reveal that the entire presentation had been presented using a new macOS app I had vibe coded in ~45 minutes the night before the talk.
Present.app
The app is called Present - literally the first name I thought of. It's built using Swift and SwiftUI and weighs in at 355KB, or 76KB compressed. Swift apps are tiny!
It may have been quick to build but the combined set of features is something I've wanted for years.
I usually use Keynote for presentations, but sometimes I like to mix things up by presenting using a sequence of web pages. I do this by loading up a browser window with a tab for each page, then clicking through those tabs in turn while I talk.
This works great, but comes with a very scary disadvantage: if the browser crashes I've just lost my entire deck!
I always have the URLs in a notes file, so I can click back to that and launch them all manually if I need to, but it's not something I'd like to deal with in the middle of a talk.
This was my starting prompt:
Build a SwiftUI app for giving presentations where every slide is a URL. The app starts as a window with a webview on the right and a UI on the left for adding, removing and reordering the sequence of URLs. Then you click Play in a menu and the app goes full screen and the left and right keys switch between URLs
That produced a plan. You can see the transcript that implemented that plan here.
In Present a talk is an ordered sequence of URLs, with a sidebar UI for adding, removing and reordering those URLs. That's the entirety of the editing experience.

When you select the "Play" option in the menu (or hit Cmd+Shift+P) the app switches to full screen mode. Left and right arrow keys navigate back and forth, and you can bump the font size up and down or scroll the page if you need to. Hit Escape when you're done.
Crucially, Present saves your URLs automatically any time you make a change. If the app crashes you can start it back up again and restore your presentation state.
You can also save presentations as a
.txtfile (literally a newline-delimited sequence of URLs) and load them back up again later.Remote controlled via my phone
Getting the initial app working took so little time that I decided to get more ambitious.
It's neat having a remote control for a presentation...
So I prompted:
Add a web server which listens on 0.0.0.0:9123 - the web server serves a single mobile-friendly page with prominent left and right buttons - clicking those buttons switches the slide left and right - there is also a button to start presentation mode or stop depending on the mode it is in.
I have Tailscale on my laptop and my phone, which means I don't have to worry about Wi-Fi networks blocking access between the two devices. My phone can access
http://100.122.231.116:9123/directly from anywhere in the world and control the presentation running on my laptop.It took a few more iterative prompts to get to the final interface, which looked like this:

There's a slide indicator at the top, prev and next buttons, a nice big "Start" button and buttons for adjusting the font size.
The most complex feature is that thin bar next to the start button. That's a touch-enabled scroll bar - you can slide your finger up and down on it to scroll the currently visible web page up and down on the screen.
It's very clunky but it works just well enough to solve the problem of a page loading with most interesting content below the fold.
Learning from the code
I'd already pushed the code to GitHub (with a big "This app was vibe coded [...] I make no promises other than it worked on my machine!" disclaimer) when I realized I should probably take a look at the code.
I used this as an opportunity to document a recent pattern I've been using: asking the model to present a linear walkthrough of the entire codebase. Here's the resulting Linear walkthroughs pattern in my ongoing Agentic Engineering Patterns guide, including the prompt I used.
The resulting walkthrough document is genuinely useful. It turns out Claude Code decided to implement the web server for the remote control feature using socket programming without a library! Here's the minimal HTTP parser it used for routing:
private func route(_ raw: String) -> String { let firstLine = raw.components(separatedBy: "\r\n").first ?? "" let parts = firstLine.split(separator: " ") let path = parts.count >= 2 ? String(parts[1]) : "/" switch path { case "/next": state?.goToNext() return jsonResponse("ok") case "/prev": state?.goToPrevious() return jsonResponse("ok")
Using GET requests for state changes like that opens up some fun CSRF vulnerabilities. For this particular application I don't really care.
Expanding our horizons
Vibe coding stories like this are ten a penny these days. I think this one is worth sharing for a few reasons:
- Swift, a language I don't know, was absolutely the right choice here. I wanted a full screen app that embedded web content and could be controlled over the network. Swift had everything I needed.
- When I finally did look at the code it was simple, straightforward and did exactly what I needed and not an inch more.
- This solved a real problem for me. I've always wanted a good way to serve a presentation as a sequence of pages, and now I have exactly that.
This doesn't mean native Mac developers are obsolete. I still used a whole bunch of my own accumulated technical knowledge (and the fact that I'd already installed Xcode and the like) to get this result, and someone who knew what they were doing could have built a far better solution in the same amount of time.
It's a neat illustration of how those of us with software engineering experience can expand our horizons in fun and interesting directions. I'm no longer afraid of Swift! Next time I need a small, personal macOS app I know that it's achievable with our existing set of tools.

π r/Yorkshire Recommend me your favourite affordable place to live! rss
I'm helping a family member look for a new place to live in the UK due to a sudden change in circumstances. Their budget is 200-300k. Ideally somewhere northern.
They are retired, would like to maximize on space and have a garden. Ideally village/small town (I would love them to have a few walkable amenities but that's not necessary for them). They are getting older so somewhere safe is most important, and they are very used to quiet village life.
Where would you recommend? They/we have lived in the same bubble for the last 25 years, so I'm looking to expand horizons and look at places that may not have been considered.
Trying to help them out of a stressful situation so any help or advice is appreciated.

π r/york Jobs with no experience needed rss
Hi, my (23M) girlfriend (23F) has been looking for jobs in York on Indeed and in person. Applied for countless jobs in York, Leeds and Harrogate since September and hasn't yet gotten anything, seldom gets an interview. It's getting so tiring and so demoralising. She dropped out of uni in Sheffield due to mental health and ADHD/Autism.
I'm trying to support her as much as I can but I'm struggling to remain positive for her at this point because so many places either aren't suitable for her (can't drive, not suited to loud social environments like pubs/restaurants etc) or just flat out reject her without any feedback.
So, on her behalf, I'm asking for any advice, help or suggestions the good people of York can provide us with. Thank you :)

π r/york Made a simple site to compare fuel prices in York rss
| I made a simple tool that shows the cheapest petrol/diesel near you: York Fuel Prices The whole point is to make it quick to compare nearby stations before you fill up. Even a 5p/L difference is about Β£2.50 on a 50L fill (10p/L is ~Β£5), so it adds up over time. It also feels timely with the UKβs Fuel Finder rollout just launched β petrol stations are now publishing prices digitally, so tools like this should get more useful as coverage improves. I know there are other apps/sites, but I wanted something thatβs:- fast on mobile
- no account / no personal details
- less clutter
Built by one person evenings/weekends β any feedback is appreciated. Otherwise, hope it helps you save some money https://preview.redd.it/duyggcxuxmlg1.png?width=2634&format=png&auto=webp&s=a0caaf29fc9802e90b59d89e2279a1f70fce51ef submitted by /u/Used-Call-3503

π Evan Schwartz Great RSS Feeds That Are Too Noisy to Read Manually rss
Some RSS feeds are fantastic but far too noisy to add to most RSS readers directly. Without serious filtering, you'd get swamped with more posts than you could possibly read, while missing the hidden gems.
I built Scour specifically because I wanted to find the great articles I was missing in noisy feeds like these, without feeling like I was drowning in unread posts. If you want to try it, you can add all of these sources in one click. But these feeds are worth knowing about regardless of what reader you use.
Hacker News Newest
Feed: https://hnrss.org/newest
Thousands of posts are submitted to Hacker News each week. While the front page gives a sense of what matches the tech zeitgeist, there are plenty of interesting posts that get buried simply because of the randomness of who happens to be reading the Newest page and voting in the ~20 minutes after posts are submitted. (You can try searching posts that were submitted but never made the front page in this demo I built into the Scour docs.)
Pinboard Recent
Pinboard describes itself as "Social Bookmarking for Introverts". The recent page is a delightfully random collection of everything one of the 30,000+ users has bookmarked. Human curated, without curation actually being the goal.
Bearblog Most Recent
Bear is "A privacy-first, no-nonsense, super-fast blogging platform". This post is published on it, and I'm a big fan. The Discovery feed gives a snapshot of blogs that users have upvoted on the platform. But, even better than that, the Most Recent feed gives you every post published on it. There are lots of great articles, and plenty of blogs that are just getting started.
Feedle All
Feed: https://feedle.world/rss
Feedle is a search engine for blogs and podcasts. You can search for words or phrases among their curated collection of blogs, and every search can become an RSS feed. An empty search will give you a feed of every post published by any one of their blogs.
Kagi Small Web
Kagi, the search engine, maintains an open source list of around 30,000 "small web" websites that are personal and non-commercial sites. Their Small Web browser lets you browse random posts one at a time. The RSS feed gives you every post published by any one of those websites.
Thread Reader
Thread Reader is a Twitter/X bot that lets users "unroll" threads into an easier-to-read format. While getting RSS feeds out of Twitter/X content is notoriously difficult, Thread Reader provides an RSS feed of all threads that users have used them to unroll. Like the content on that platform, the threads are very hit-or-miss, but there are some gems in there.
Minifeed Global
Not an RSS feed: https://minifeed.net/global
Minifeed is a nice "curated blog reader and search engine". They have a Global page that shows every post published by one of the blogs they've indexed. While this isn't technically an RSS feed, I thought it deserved a mention.
Note that Scour can add some websites that don't have RSS feeds. It treats pages with repeated structures that look like blogs (e.g. they have links, titles, and publish dates) as if they were RSS feeds. Minifeed's Global view is one such page, so you can also get every post published from any one of their collected blogs.
arXiv
Feeds galore: https://info.arxiv.org/help/rss.html
arXiv has preprint academic articles for technical fields ranging from Computer Science and Mathematics to Physics and Quantitative Biology. Like many of the feeds listed above, most of the categories are very noisy. But, if you're into reading academic articles, there is also plenty of great new research hidden in the noise. Every field and sub-field has its own RSS feed. (You can browse them and subscribe on Scour here).
While reading my Scour feed, I'll often check which feeds an article I liked came from (see what this looks like here), and I'm especially delighted when it comes from some source I had no idea existed.
These types of noisy feeds are great ways of discovering new content and new blogs, but you definitely need some good filters to make use of them. I hope you'll give Scour a try!
P.S. Scour makes all of the feeds it creates consumable as RSS/Atom/JSON feeds, so you can add your personalized feed or each of your interests-specific feeds to your favorite feed reader. Read more in this guide for RSS users.

π r/Harrogate Scotton - Experience with cell networks/broadband? rss
Currently looking to relocate to Scotton, but having some difficulty figuring out what to do with broadband and cellular networks.
The EE network is pretty poor there from what I could gather on my last visit (patchy service and 4G struggling to load directions on Google Maps on Havikil Lane and outside the pub). Iβm happy to switch networks if there is one that works well. Any recommendations?
Broadband seems to be standard BT copper lines to the properties with 70mbps being the max speed (not sufficient for the working that I do from home). I am aware of a company named Quickline that will install a fibre-to-the-property line and can provide 1gbps speeds, but not sure on quality of service as Iβve not heard of them before. Any experience with them?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

| Qwen3.5-35B-A3B with Opencode Just tested this badboy with Opencode cause frankly I couldn't believe those benchmarks. Running it on a single RTX 3090 on a headless Linux box. Freshly compiled Llama.cpp and those are my settings after some tweaking, still not fully tuned: ./llama.cpp/llama-server \ -m /models/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-MXFP4_MOE.gguf \ -a "DrQwen" \ -c 131072 \ -ngl all \ -ctk q8_0 \ -ctv q8_0 \ -sm none \ -mg 0 \ -np 1 \ -fa on Around 22 gigs of vram used. Now the fun part:- I'm getting over 100t/s on it
- This is the first open weights model I was able to utilise on my home hardware to successfully complete my own "coding test" I used for years for recruitment (mid lvl mobile dev, around 5h to complete "pre AI" ;)). It did it in around 10 minutes, strong pass. First agentic tool that I was able to "crack" it with was Kodu.AI with some early sonnet roughly 14 months ago.
- For fun I wanted to recreate this dashboard OpenAI used during Cursor demo last summer, I did a recreation of it with Claude Code back then and posted it on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1mk7plb/just_recreated_that_gpt5_cursor_demo_in_claude/ So... Qwen3.5 was able to do it in around 5 minutes.

π News Minimalist π’ First UK baby from deceased donor womb + 10 more stories rss
In the last 4 days ChatGPT read 120455 top news stories. After removing previously covered events, there are 11 articles with a significance score over 5.5.

[6.4] First UK baby born from deceased donor womb transplant βbbc.co.uk(+15)
A baby boy has become the first child in the UK born using a womb transplanted from a deceased donor, a breakthrough for women born without viable wombs.
Grace Bell, who has MRKH syndrome, received the organ in 2024 before undergoing IVF. This milestone, part of a clinical research trial, follows the 2025 birth of a baby via a living donor transplant and offers hope to thousands of similar patients.
The transplanted womb will eventually be removed to prevent Bell from requiring lifelong immunosuppressants. Globally, over 70 babies have been born following womb transplants, though deceased donor successes remain rare in Europe.
[5.6] US Peace Corps sends AI experts abroad to boost global influence βengadget.com(+2)
The Peace Corps is launching Tech Corps, a new initiative recruiting artificial intelligence experts to serve in foreign countries to strengthen United States leadership in the global AI market.
Recruited STEM graduates will fulfill 12- to 27-month assignments in nations participating in the American AI Exports Program. These volunteers will utilize AI technology to address local challenges in critical sectors including healthcare, education, agriculture, and general economic development.
[5.6] Perseverance rover gains precise self-location capability on Mars βspace.com(+4)
NASA has updated the Perseverance rover to autonomously determine its precise location on Mars using new software, eliminating Earth-based guidance and enabling faster, more extensive exploration of the planet.
The Mars Global Localization system matches panoramic imagery to orbital maps, identifying coordinates within roughly ten inches. Previously, cumulative sensor errors required mission teams on Earth to manually verify positions, a process delayed by the massive communication distance and time between the two planets.
This technology follows recent tests of AI-planned routes and digital twin simulations. Officials believe this advancement will facilitate more efficient autonomous exploration for future robotic missions on Mars and other celestial bodies.

I'm holding a Mother's Day bouquet making workshop on Sat 14th March, and I would like some advice from anyone who has held workshops in York before - what are some of the best social media pages to promote on?
I'm looking to promote to groups on Facebook, Insta etc.; would Facebook group pages like Things to do in York be helpful?
If you've run workshops before what's been the most helpful in getting your stuff out there?
I'm a small business starting up, so any advice would be much appreciated!

Hello!
I am wanting to get out of York a bit more and explore the countryside but I don't drive so I would need to use public transport. I've pretty much done every walk you can think of around York so looking for something a bit further further afield but still accessible via bus or train. Bonus points for any good cycling options as well!

| Why would they care about distillation when they probably have done the same with OpenAI models and the Chinese labs are paying for the tokens? This is just their attempt to explain to investors and the US government that cheap Chinese models will never be as good as their models without distillation or stealing model weights from them. And they need to put more restrictions on China to prevent the technology transfer. submitted by /u/obvithrowaway34434

π r/Leeds Gym feels lonely rss
Hi guys,
I've (22, F) moved to the UK for masters last September. I recently joined a SnapFitness gym to make new friends outside of university. I'm quite a friendly person and don't really have an issue making new friends; however, going to the gym here feels so lonely cause everyone has earphones in all the time. No one talks to anyone. Are gyms not an avenue to make friends? Is it a thing that in UK gyms, people just come to work out and run back home? I'm wondering if this is some kind of culture shock or something for me.

π anthropics/claude-code v2.1.51 release
What's changed
- Added
claude remote-controlsubcommand for external builds, enabling local environment serving for all users. - Updated plugin marketplace default git timeout from 30s to 120s and added
CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_GIT_TIMEOUT_MSto configure. - Added support for custom npm registries and specific version pinning when installing plugins from npm sources
- BashTool now skips login shell (
-lflag) by default when a shell snapshot is available, improving command execution performance. Previously this required settingCLAUDE_BASH_NO_LOGIN=true. - Fixed a security issue where
statusLineandfileSuggestionhook commands could execute without workspace trust acceptance in interactive mode. - Tool results larger than 50K characters are now persisted to disk (previously 100K). This reduces context window usage and improves conversation longevity.
- Fixed a security issue where HTTP hooks could interpolate arbitrary environment variables from header values. Env var interpolation now requires an explicit
allowedEnvVarslist in the hook configuration. - Fixed a bug where duplicate
control_responsemessages (e.g. from WebSocket reconnects) could cause API 400 errors by pushing duplicate assistant messages into the conversation. - Added
CLAUDE_CODE_ACCOUNT_UUID,CLAUDE_CODE_USER_EMAIL, andCLAUDE_CODE_ORGANIZATION_UUIDenvironment variables for SDK callers to provide account info synchronously, eliminating a race condition where early telemetry events lacked account metadata. - Fixed slash command autocomplete crashing when a plugin's SKILL.md description is a YAML array or other non-string type
- HTTP hooks are now routed through the sandbox network proxy when sandboxing is enabled, enforcing the domain allowlist. HTTP hooks are not supported for SessionStart/Setup events.
- The
/modelpicker now shows human-readable labels (e.g., "Sonnet 4.5") instead of raw model IDs for pinned model versions, with an upgrade hint when a newer version is available.

My mum and I saw pretty pictures of Harrogate and chose to stay here for a few nights but not gonna lie it is underwhelming. We like quirky shops, ,hipster, vintage stuff. Independent shops. Don't get me wrong we've been in a few but it's lacking and I heard so many employees in shops talking about the lack of shops compared to the past which is a shame.
Any recommendations?

π Simon Willison Writing about Agentic Engineering Patterns rss
I've started a new project to collect and document Agentic Engineering Patterns - coding practices and patterns to help get the best results out of this new era of coding agent development we find ourselves entering.
I'm using Agentic Engineering to refer to building software using coding agents - tools like Claude Code and OpenAI Codex, where the defining feature is that they can both generate and execute code - allowing them to test that code and iterate on it independently of turn-by-turn guidance from their human supervisor.
I think of vibe coding using its original definition of coding where you pay no attention to the code at all, which today is often associated with non-programmers using LLMs to write code.
Agentic Engineering represents the other end of the scale: professional software engineers using coding agents to improve and accelerate their work by amplifying their existing expertise.
There is so much to learn and explore about this new discipline! I've already published a lot under my ai-assisted-programming tag (345 posts and counting) but that's been relatively unstructured. My new goal is to produce something that helps answer the question "how do I get good results out of this stuff" all in one place.
I'll be developing and growing this project here on my blog as a series of chapter-shaped patterns, loosely inspired by the format popularized by Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software back in 1994.
I published the first two chapters today:
- Writing code is cheap now talks about the central challenge of agentic engineering: the cost to churn out initial working code has dropped to almost nothing, how does that impact our existing intuitions about how we work, both individually and as a team?
- Red/green TDD describes how test-first development helps agents write more succinct and reliable code with minimal extra prompting.
I hope to add more chapters at a rate of 1-2 a week. I don't really know when I'll stop, there's a lot to cover!
Written by me, not by an LLM
I have a strong personal policy of not publishing AI-generated writing under my own name. That policy will hold true for Agentic Engineering Patterns as well. I'll be using LLMs for proofreading and fleshing out example code and all manner of other side-tasks, but the words you read here will be my own.
Chapters and Guides
Agentic Engineering Patterns isn't exactly a book, but it's kind of book-shaped. I'll be publishing it on my site using a new shape of content I'm calling a guide. A guide is a collection of chapters, where each chapter is effectively a blog post with a less prominent date that's designed to be updated over time, not frozen at the point of first publication.
Guides and chapters are my answer to the challenge of publishing "evergreen" content on a blog. I've been trying to find a way to do this for a while now. This feels like a format that might stick.
If you're interested in the implementation you can find the code in the Guide, Chapter and ChapterChange models and the associated Django views, almost all of which was written by Claude Opus 4.6 running in Claude Code for web accessed via my iPhone.

π r/york York Restaurant Week - The Ultimate Spreadsheet! rss
| Hello everyone! With the March York Restaurant Week upcoming and all the offers posted to the website, I have lovingly and painstakingly added every single restaurant, bar and place with offers to a spreadsheet. I have added columns that you can filter by for style of food/place (e.g. Italian, Chinese), whether the offer includes breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks (separately, drinks with food donβt count), snacks and/or an experience (experience would include, for example, City Cruises). You can filter by each of these individually so you can plan your meals and days. I have added the Google Reviews, in case that helps thinking, the location, and then I have added all offers except for offers which are children specific (e.g kids meal Β£10) since I made this list for personal use and donβt have any! I have put the prices of the offers at the start, so you can filter by price as well when deciding where to go. I willingly sacrificed a day of hard work to do this work instead. Not as in I took the day off work, just that I procrastinated massively. The only thing I think missing is when the offers apply, as some are exclusive to certain times and days - will keep editing the spreadsheet as I go. Hope it is a useful tool! there is probably room for improvement, this is just a first draft, so welcome vies on how to make this more functional π submitted by /u/TheGent_88

π r/Yorkshire TRU work between Leeds and Huddersfield this April (weekends), May and June rss
| Network Rail is warning passengers of major disruptions to service on the line between Huddersfield and Leeds this May and June, due to engineering work involving the Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU). Additionally, trains will not stop at Huddersfield station at weekends during April. The planned works are necessary to carry out essential infrastructure improvements, including track and drainage renewals, bridge work, signalling upgrades, and station enhancements along the Huddersfield to Leeds corridor. Passengers are being strongly advised to plan ahead of travelling. Where possible, passengers will remain on trains using diversionary routes or services running as close as possible to affected areas. However, journey times may be increased, and some passengers will benefit from the use of rail replacement buses. During the disruption, Brighouse Station will serve as a combined rail and bus interchange for those travelling to or from Huddersfield. βWe understand the ongoing work will cause some disruption, and weβd like to thank everybody for their patience throughout this period. βThe Transpennine Route Upgrade will bring major benefits, including more trains, more seats and faster, more reliable journeys across the North. These improvements, from electrifying the route to upgrading stations and modernising signalling, will help create a greener, more dependable railway that better serves local communities for years to come.β Paul Sumner, TRU Senior Sponsor. βTRU has made a lot of progress on the route between Huddersfield and Leeds over the last few years, and will continue to do so over the next few months, delivering once in a generation upgrades for our customers that will improve accessibility at our stations, as well as improving the reliability of the railway and enabling future upgrade works to take place along that corridor. βWhile these works are being carried out over the coming months, our services will be operating to an amended timetable and in some instances, rail replacement buses will be in operation.

π r/LocalLLaMA Feels like magic. A local gpt-oss 20B is capable of agentic work rss
| I gave a try to zeroclaw agent (intstead of the bloated and overhyped one). After few hours of fuckery with configs it's finally useful. Both main and embeddings models are running locally.
I carefully read what it's trying to execute in shell, and permit only [relatively] safe tools in config.
So far it can interact with macOS apps, web pages, and local files while keeping all my data private.
gpt-oss 20B has its limits though, it loses focus after 15-20 steps and often needs direct instructions to use persistent memory. It also starts behaving weirdly if tool access has been denied or tool returned some error. Update: just after 20 minutes of testing Qwen3.5-35B is my new favorite. I had to pick IQ2_XXS quants to get the same file size, sacrificed some context, lost 50% of token genration speed, but it's way more focused and intelligent. submitted by /u/Vaddieg

π r/LocalLLaMA Qwen3's most underrated feature: Voice embeddings rss
| Did you know that Qwen3 TTS utilizes voice embedding for voice cloning?
Your voice is turned into a vector of 1024 dimensions (or 2048 for 1.7b), and based on this vector alone you can get your custom voice. But the coolest part is that this means that you can use math to modify voices, average voices. You can swap gender, pitch, mix and match voices, and even create an emotion space! This also enables semantic voice search! The voice embedding model is actually just a tiny encoder with just a few million parameters. I've ripped it out of the voice embedding model so you can use the embedding model standalone. Check out my collection! :D I also have onnx models for optimized web / front-end inference. https://huggingface.co/collections/marksverdhei/qwen3-voice-embedding Voice embedings can be used for inference in my vllm-omni fork until it is supported in upstream: https://github.com/heiervang-technologies/ht-vllm-omni submitted by /u/k_means_clusterfuck

π Rust Blog Rust debugging survey 2026 rss
We're launching a Rust Debugging Survey.
Various issues with debugging Rust code are often mentioned as one of the biggest challenges that annoy Rust developers. While it is definitely possible to debug Rust code today, there are situations where it does not work well enough, and the quality of debugging support also varies a lot across different debuggers and operating systems.
In order for Rust to have truly stellar debugging support, it should ideally:
- Support (several versions!) of different debuggers (such as GDB, LLDB or CDB) across multiple operating systems.
- Implement debugger visualizers that are able to produce quality presentation of most Rust types.
- Provide first-class support for debugging
asynccode. - Allow evaluating Rust expressions in the debugger.
Rust is not quite there yet, and it will take a lot of work to reach that level of debugger support. Furthermore, it is also challenging to ensure that debugging Rust code keeps working well, across newly released debugger versions, changes to internal representation of Rust data structures in the standard library and other things that can break the debugging experience.
We already have some plans to start improving debugging support in Rust, but it would also be useful to understand the current debugging struggles of Rust developers. That is why we have prepared the Rust Debugging Survey, which should help us find specific challenges with debugging Rust code.
You can fill out the surveyhere.
Filling the survey should take you approximately 5 minutes, and the survey is fully anonymous. We will accept submissions until Friday, March 13th, 2026. After the survey ends, we will evaluate the results and post key insights on this blog.
We would like to thank Sam Kellam (@hashcatHitman) who did a lot of great work to prepare this survey.
We invite you to fill the survey, as your responses will help us improve the Rust debugging experience. Thank you!

π Baby Steps What it means that Ubuntu is using Rust rss
Righty-ho, I'm back from Rust Nation, and busily horrifying my teenage daughter with my (admittedly atrocious) attempts at doing an English accent1. It was a great trip with a lot of good conversations and some interesting observations. I am going to try to blog about some of them, starting with some thoughts spurred by Jon Seager's closing keynote, "Rust Adoption At Scale with Ubuntu".
There are many chasms out there
For some time now I've been debating with myself, has Rust "crossed the chasm"? If you're not familiar with that term, it comes from a book that gives a kind of "pop-sci" introduction to the Technology Adoption Life Cycle.
The answer, of course, is it depends on who you ask. Within Amazon, where I have the closest view, the answer is that we are "most of the way across": Rust is squarely established as the right way to build at-scale data planes or resource-aware agents and it is increasingly seen as the right choice for low- level code in devices and robotics as well - but there remains a lingering perception that Rust is useful for "those fancy pants developers at S3" (or wherever) but a bit overkill for more average development3.
On the other hand, within the realm of Safety Critical Software, as Pete LeVasseur wrote in a recent rust-lang blog post, Rust is still scrabbling for a foothold. There are a number of successful products but most of the industry is in a "wait and see" mode, letting the early adopters pave the path.
"Crossing the chasm" means finding "reference customers"
The big idea that I at least took away from reading Crossing the Chasm and other references on the technology adoption life cycle is the need for "reference customers". When you first start out with something new, you are looking for pioneers and early adopters that are drawn to new things:
What an early adopter is buying [..] is some kind of change agent. By being the first to implement this change in the industry, the early adopters expect to get a jump on the competition. - from Crossing the Chasm
But as your technology matures, you have to convince people with a lower and lower tolerance for risk:
The early majority want to buy a productivity improvement for existing operations. They are looking to minimize discontinuity with the old ways. They want evolution, not revolution. - from Crossing the Chasm
So what is most convincing to people to try something new? The answer is seeing that others like them have succeeded.
You can see this at play in both the Amazon example and the Safety Critical Software example. Clearly seeing Rust used for network services doesn't mean it's ready to be used in your car's steering column4. And even within network services, seeing a group like S3 succeed with Rust may convince other groups building at-scale services to try Rust, but doesn't necessarily persuade a team to use Rust for their next CRUD service. And frankly, it shouldn't! They are likely to hit obstacles.
Ubuntu is helping Rust "cross the (user-land linux) chasm"
All of this was on my mind as I watched the keynote by Jon Seager, the VP of Engineering at Canonical, which is the company behind Ubuntu. Similar to Lars Bergstrom's epic keynote from year's past on Rust adoption within Google, Jon laid out a pitch for why Canonical is adopting Rust that was at once visionary and yet deeply practical.
"Visionary and yet deeply practical" is pretty much the textbook description of what we need to cross from early adopters to early majority. We need folks who care first and foremost about delivering the right results, but are open to new ideas that might help them do that better; folks who can stand on both sides of the chasm at once.
Jon described how Canonical focuses their own development on a small set of languages: Python, C/C++, and Go, and how they had recently brought in Rust and were using it as the language of choice for new foundational efforts, replacing C, C++, and (some uses of) Python.
Ubuntu is building the bridge across the chasm
Jon talked about how he sees it as part of Ubuntu's job to "pay it forward" by supporting the construction of memory-safe foundational utilities. Jon meant support both in terms of finances - Canonical is sponsoring the Trifecta Tech Foundation's to develop sudo- rs and ntpd- rs and sponsoring the uutils org's work on coreutils - and in terms of reputation. Ubuntu can take on the risk of doing something new, prove that it works, and then let others benefit.
Remember how the Crossing the Chasm book described early majority people? They are "looking to minimize discontinuity with the old ways". And what better way to do that than to have drop-in utilities that fit within their existing workflows.
The challenge for Rust: listening to these new adopters
With new adoption comes new perspectives. On Thursday night I was at dinner5 organized by Ernest Kissiedu6. Jon Seager was there along with some other Rust adopters from various industries, as were a few others from the Rust Foundation and the open-source project.
Ernest asked them to give us their unvarnished takes on Rust. Jon made the provocative comment that we needed to revisit our policy around having a small standard library. He's not the first to say something like that, it's something we've been hearing for years and years - and I think he's right! Though I don't think the answer is just to ship a big standard library. In fact, it's kind of a perfect lead-in to (what I hope will be) my next blog post, which is about a project I call "battery packs"7.
To grow, you have to change
The broader point though is that shifting from targeting "pioneers" and "early adopters" to targeting "early majority" sometimes involves some uncomfortable changes:
Transition between any two adoption segments is normally excruciatingly awkward because you must adopt new strategies just at the time you have become most comfortable with the old ones. [..] The situation can be further complicated if the high-tech company, fresh from its marketing success with visionaries, neglects to change its sales pitch. [..] The company may be saying "state-of-the-art" when the pragmatist wants to hear "industry standard". - Crossing the Chasm (emphasis mine)
Not everybody will remember it, but in 2016 there was a proposal called the Rust Platform. The idea was to bring in some crates and bless them as a kind of "extended standard library". People hated it. After all, they said, why not just add dependencies to your
Cargo.toml? It's easy enough. And to be honest, they were right - at least at the time.I think the Rust Platform is a good example of something that was a poor fit for early adopters, who want the newest thing and don't mind finding the best crates, but which could be a great fit for the Early Majority.8
Anyway, I'm not here to argue for one thing or another in this post, but more for the concept that we have to be open to adapting our learned wisdom to new circumstances. In the past, we were trying to bootstrap Rust into the industry's consciousness - and we have succeeded.
The task before us now is different: we need to make Rust the best option not just in terms of "what it could be " but in terms of "what it actually is " - and sometimes those are in tension.
Another challenge for Rust: turning adoption into investment
Later in the dinner, the talk turned, as it often does, to money. Growing Rust adoption also comes with growing needs placed on the Rust project and its ecosystem. How can we connect the dots? This has been a big item on my mind, and I realize in writing this paragraph how many blog posts I have yet to write on the topic, but let me lay out a few interesting points that came up over this dinner and at other recent points.
Investment can mean contribution, particularly for open-source orgs
First, there are more ways to offer support than $$. For Canonical specifically, as they are an open-source organization through-and-through, what I would most want is to build stronger relationships between our organizations. With the Rust for Linux developers, early on Rust maintainers were prioritizing and fixing bugs on behalf of RfL devs, but more and more, RfL devs are fixing things themselves, with Rust maintainers serving as mentors. This is awesome!
Money often comes before a company has adopted Rust, not after
Second, there's an interesting trend about $$ that I've seen crop up in a few places. We often think of companies investing in the open-source dependencies that they rely upon. But there's an entirely different source of funding, and one that might be even easier to tap, which is to look at companies that are considering Rust but haven't adopted it yet.
For those "would be" adopters, there are often individuals in the org who are trying to make the case for Rust adoption - these individuals are early adopters, people with a vision for how things could be, but they are trying to sell to their early majority company. And to do that, they often have a list of "table stakes" features that need to be supported; what's more, they often have access to some budget to make these things happen.
This came up when I was talking to Alexandru Radovici, the Foundation's Silver Member Directory, who said that many safety critical companies have money they'd like to spend to close various gaps in Rust, but they don't know how to spend it. Jon's investments in Trifecta Tech and the uutils org have the same character: he is looking to close the gaps that block Ubuntu from using Rust more.
Conclusions�
Well, first of all, you should watch Jon's talk. "Brilliant", as the Brits have it.
But my other big thought is that this is a crucial time for Rust. We are clearly transitioning in a number of areas from visionaries and early adopters towards that pragmatic majority, and we need to be mindful that doing so may require us to change some of the way that we've always done things. I liked this paragraph from Crossing the Chasm:
To market successfully to pragmatists, one does not have to be one - just understand their values and work to serve them. To look more closely into these values, if the goal of visionaries is to take a quantum leap forward, the goal of pragmatists is to make a percentage improvement-incremental, measurable, predictable progress. [..] To market to pragmatists, you must be patient. You need to be conversant with the issues that dominate their particular business. You need to show up at the industry-specific conferences and trade shows they attend.
Re-reading Crossing the Chasm as part of writing this blog post has really helped me square where Rust is - for the most part, I think we are still crossing the chasm, but we are well on our way. I think what we see is a consistent trend now where we have Rust champions who fit the "visionary" profile of early adopters successfully advocating for Rust within companies that fit the pragmatist, early majority profile.
Open source can be a great enabler to cross the chasmβ¦
It strikes me that open-source is just an amazing platform for doing this kind of marketing. Unlike a company, we don't have to do everything ourselves. We have to leverage the fact that open source helps those who help themselves - find those visionary folks in industries that could really benefit from Rust, bring them into the Rust orbit, and then (most important!) support and empower them to adapt Rust to their needs.
β¦but only if we don't get too "middle school" about it
This last part may sound obvious, but it's harder than it sounds. When you're embedded in open source, it seems like a friendly place where everyone is welcome. But the reality is that it can be a place full of cliques and "oral traditions" that "everybody knows"9. People coming with an idea can get shutdown for using the wrong word. They can readily mistake the, um, "impassioned" comments from a random contributor (or perhaps just a trollβ¦) for the official word from project leadership. It only takes one rude response to turn somebody away.
What Rust needs most is empathy
So what will ultimately help Rust the most to succeed? Empathy in Open Source. Let's get out there, find out where Rust can help people, and make it happen. Exciting times!

π exe.dev Show, donβt tell rss
I have been tasked, by process of elimination, with developing exe.devβs marketing strategy.
In one very important sense, marketing exe.dev is easy. I am proud of what we have built, so I am happy to talk about it to anyone who will do me the kindness of listening. Being happy enough with my work to talk about it is rare for me, and usually the biggest hurdle.
In another sense, it is the worst time to talk about anything. The over-the- top marketing around AI is tiring. Yes, the technical possibilities created by LLMs are wondrous. I have not been this excited about computers since I got a modem! Yet the noise is deafening.
With general SNR so low, the only marketing strategy that makes sense to me is: Show, donβt tell.
It turns out we are already doing this, to an extent. We built a landing page back in December that was described by the top comment on HN as βthe worst website everβ because all it does is tell you to
ssh exe.dev. Even there, what we show you is the infrastructure we built, that your agent needs. You need VMs. Lots of VMs. You need TLS and auth taken care of for you. You need it easy enough to use an agent can figure it out and have context window left over to write your program.This strategy is going really well! A lot of users have shown up, asking technical questions and we are growing rapidly.
But along the way, it is easy for a lot of the value of the product to be hard to discover. I would like to tell you about one, but in the spirit of βshow, donβt tellβ let me show you something I have done with it.
Write private apps from your phone. Share them.
So I am going to walk through an example of the most powerful feature that is hard (today) to discover from our home page:
Shelley is for your phone
In our default VM image, we install codex and claude. We also include our own agent, Shelley. It is the second general-purpose programming agent we have written, and we wrote it for a very particular reason: we need an agent with a web UI.
The need for a web UI is debatable on a desktop. There are clear advantages, but also drawbacks. But on mobile the case is clear. Iβm not going to press a teeny tiny βCtrl+Zβ button in an iOS terminal emulator. Sorry. I need all the affordances of mobile UI design from the past 19 years to be able to use such a tiny screen without a real keyboard.
With this, you can visit exe.dev/new and type in a prompt. We start a VM, and feed the prompt to the copy of Shelley running on your VM. Because itβs a fresh, isolated VM we have no permission nagging, the agent is root and can do whatever it needs to get the job done. (This is wonderfully powerful, so much so you should be sure to only do it in an isolated VM.)
When you are done, in the exe.dev web UI you will find a share URL under your VM:
https://anycaster.exe.xyz?share=AVERYSECRETTOKENSend that to anyone and they can login by verifying their email (no subscription required). Your app is private by default but shared easily.
Example: anycaster
This is the βshow, donβt tellβ part of the post. Here is a real app I wrote, on my phone, to do serious work.
As part of rolling out exe.dev to multiple regions, we are exploring putting all of our VMs automatically behind a global anycast network. The sort of thing you might buy, e.g. AWS GLB, but we are doing it with more direct vendors because, well, we intend to be a cloud provider. That means doing the work.
So we rolled out a small set of global frontends and had a /24 anycast onto it by one of the vendors. It seemed to work. But I noticed surprisingly long ping times from home. So I added an endpoint to our frontends reporting location, much like you can do with Cloudflare:
curl -s https://1.1.1.1/cdn-cgi/trace | grep coloWhat I found was my home network (in California) was misrouting to our Frankfurt frontend. Ouch.
So I wanted to report this to the netops team we are working with so they could fix it, but I also wanted to build out our own tooling for testing routes we care about. (These tools exist, but I wanted to log history and use them from my phone.) So I went to exe.dev/new, and typed in:
Hello. The anycaster server is designed to test exe.dev anycast. Setup Tailscale with the token:β¨β¨TS_TOKEN=... Write a Go server that, every hour, uses `tailscale exit-node list --filter=` to find a Mullvad exit node in the right region, uses `tailscale set --exit-node=` to set the machine to use it, and then inspects the state of the world with: curl -s https://1.1.1.1/cdn-cgi/trace | grep colo This is our base standard about "where we are". Then run: curl -s http://<our anycast IP>/debug/who This is the test of our anycast, and tells you which of our servers we are connected to. You can get the list of frontends with: β¦ I want you to test access from (and if these exact locations don't exist, something geographically near): β¦ Then for each of these run: sudo mtr -rwzbs 200 --tcp -P 80 <our anycast IP> to give us a route to the target. Store the results in an sqlite DB. Each of these should connect to the geographically closest FE. Show the latest results on the web page of anycaster.This is a long prompt to type out on a phone, but I was walking to a meeting and I generally type far too much on my phone. The TS_TOKEN I keep in an Apple Note for apps like these. (I realize thatβs not great! I am working on trying to get Tailscale setup to be easier on exe.dev. You could also for this case skip Tailscale and use the mullvad client directly. But I write apps with what I know.)
I put my phone away, had the meeting, and then afterwards pulled it out and found this app waiting for me:

This is a recent screenshot. The original version had fewer frontends, and more β results. Our anycast network needed a lot of tuning.
I sent the share link to the netops team and asked them to fix it. They did! Minus whatever strange thing is happening in Chicago, I still need to investigate if thatβs weirdness from Mullvad or from our anycast routing.
Over the next couple of weeks I tweaked it. In my Shelley conversation history youβll find prompts like:
Two things please: - add an "edit in Shelley" button to anycaster to bring me here - relax Miami so it can connect to DALAnd:
We now have enough things to test that it's slow. I believe all the time is in running mtr. So let's do it in two phases: 1. go through them all and collect status. 2. when complete, go through the ones that fail and collect MTR. Make it clear what's happening visually.One big thing I changed was, every hour when this server ran the test, switching the exit node cut off my access to the web server. We have a plan to fix this generally for exe.dev users by improving some of our in-VM isolation, but until we did I wanted a quick fix. Out of curiosity, I typed in this prompt:
The current anycaster works well. However, when it is running the tests, the reconfiguration of Tailscale appears to break the exe.dev sshd server and thus the website (which proxies through it).
Is it possible to use Tailscale in an isolated network namespace? We can then run our connection tests like the mtr tool in that namespace. Please try implementing it.This was me, honestly, being silly. There is no world in which I would waste hours digging through the poor documentation around the
netnscommand for a little dashboard app like this, all over a minor inconvenience. I could lose a couple of days to something ridiculous like this in the pre-LLM world. But when youβre typing idly on a phone you can dream of software you would never realistically write.When I came back Shelley left me with a summary and some ASCII art:
### Changes Made 1. **`tailscale-netns.service`** - New systemd service that: - Creates a Linux network namespace called `tailscale` - Sets up a veth pair (`veth-host` β `veth-ts`) to connect namespace to host - Configures IPs (10.200.200.1/24 on host, 10.200.200.2/24 in namespace) - Enables IP forwarding and NAT so namespace can reach the internet - Cleans up on stop ... ### How It Works βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ β HOST (exe.dev VM) β β β β eth0 ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββΊ Internet β β (exe.dev sshd uses this directly) β β β β veth-host (10.200.200.1) β β β β β β NAT β β βΌ β β βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ β β β NAMESPACE "tailscale" β β β β β β β β veth-ts (10.200.200.2) β β β β β β β β β βΌ β β β β tailscale0 βββββΊ Exit nodes βββββΊ Tests β β β β β β β βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ β βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ - **Host traffic** (including exe.dev sshd) uses eth0 directly - **Anycaster tests** run `curl`/`mtr` inside the namespace - **tailscale CLI** commands work from outside (socket-based communication)It worked.
It dug its way through all these painfully undocumented Linux subsystems and isolated my Tailscale daemon in a network namespace. Every hour when the namespace starts changing its location, I can still access the web server. In fact I wrote a few more prompts to add nice status updates about the background work to the UI.
The result of all of this is we are still investigating and trialing vendor products for our global network frontend, and studying how these products handle changing network routes. We hope to launch something soon.
A note on the future of engineering
What is surprising to me, in retrospect, is at no point in writing or using this app, or sharing it with half a dozen netops folks, did I ever look at the code. I spot checked the outputs, I looked at the bad mtr traces and made sure the conclusions fit with the data. We eventually cross-checked with RIPE. The output is correct. I am writing serious business tools that affect the companyβs decisions, with prompts, from my phone.
Again, I donβt want to oversell anything. I have used Shelley to prototype changes to our web UI and add minor features. But almost all of our changes to exe.dev infrastructure are done on desktop. We read source changes to critical systems very carefully.
What we see here is a new kind of small private shareable app development appearing. You wonβt be writing a web browser in it any time soon. But you might be building fun programs for friends or colleagues that you couldnβt fit in a spreadsheet.
Write some fun games with your kids on the couch. Or clone a round of Only Connect. Before you know it you will think of something you need at work and want to share with the team.
