Which part looks good? The <50 words or the YouTube video?

I'm not saying this isn't a good idea or that people don't want something like this but... There's nothing here?

Node always felt so annoying to deal with. I was really excited when Bun and Deno were coming up. Pour one out.

Good info, thanks!

Fireworks hosts the available models themselves which probably solves the problem consistency problem that OP had to deal with.

It's been a few months since I looked around at this topic, but Fireworks and Openrouter were the two options I (briefly) tried.

About twenty years ago I used tinyurl.com/lvorv to link to a flash animation.

I assume there's some divine intervention going on, but it still works!

I switched to Cachy in late February this year.

First day was a bit rough, first week was still a little rough, but it's been pretty smooth since then, even when learning how to fix things and trying new software.

I'm using Niri and Noctalia as my desktop setup, and it's been different than my Windows experience, but it feels fun and cool to just use a computer in a new way.

Sorry for the late reply (relatively new to HN)

After my Claude subscription ended, I tried using Fireworks and OpenRouter to be less vendor-locked and access cheaper models. MiniMax, Kimi, and Qwen were the three I tried the most since they're fairly cheap, but I still burned thorugh credits way too fast. Now I'm using Codex.

I've heard that if you can deal with slower output, local LLMs can run on gaming graphics cards well enough. So they're not great for a live coding assistant, but running some tasks/agents overnight is an option.

When I dropped my Claude sub a few months ago I first went to try pi. At first I was a little overwhelmed by having to browse extensions to get the experience I want (coupled with finding new model providers to use).

So I looked elsewhere and found Crush and Hermes. They're both very a e s t h e t i c, which I think can make using them fun, but ultimately if I had a nitpick, I would look back over at pi, and the grass looked greener. (And not to mention, both Hermes and Crush seem to have some drama/baggage.)

I'm back on pi, and happy with just a few packages I've downloaded for it.
