Great point. I would assume the browser consortium is well aware of this. Microsoft and Google are CAs too so the same risk exists for Azure and GCP.

We definitely need to reduce the Let's Encrypt monoculture sooner rather than later

These cached token totals mean nothing to me without the full logs. Anyway, your tone means that you know what you are doing so I'll be quiet. Good luck!

@lizthegrey.com had the same hunch in a different thread

Claude code and oh-my-pi get 96 to 99% cache hit rate. You should measure your session log jsonl reported costs per turn for dips in cache read rates. Something must be busting your prefixes.

89% cache hits? Something’s weird.

Opus still wins on Artificial Analysis. I am curious to see time per task. I suspect Opus will win. Sonnet is going the way of Terra. A neglected middle child.

Scatter chart from Artificial Analysis plotting Intelligence Index (y-axis, 0–70) against cost per task (x-axis, log scale, $0.06 to $20), with Anthropic models highlighted and others greyed out. Two orange Anthropic lines connect effort variants. Claude Opus 5.5 climbs from about 36 at $0.42 to 57.5 at $6, running along the Pareto frontier from roughly $1.10 upward. Claude Sonnet 5.5 rises from about 41 at $0.60 to 56 at $7.60, sitting just below Opus at every price. The Pareto line starts at GPT-6 Luna (max) near $0.06, jumps to MiMo-V2.6-Pro at about 46 for $0.14, then stays flat to GPT-6 Sol (max) at around 48 for $1 before Opus takes over. Greyed competitors include GPT-6 Astra (max) at about 53 for $3.30, Claude Fable 5.1 near 53.5 at $7.50, Claude Opus 5 at about 51 for $5.30, and a cheaper cluster (GLM-5.3, Gemini 3.8 Flash, Kimi K3) in the low 40s to high 40s.

OK, this was a crazy release. Opus 5.5 ran for 4 days straight solving all sort of integration issues in the drive train subassembly and build farm ops. 40 PRs in total. It did pull through though. $14k in token-equivalent costs, 167 subagents, not all running at once. github.com/pedropaulovc...

Yes, I did have some cases of premature hardening. What I've been doing is tweaking the prompt to clarify if it's a toy project or what is the threat model. The ajudicator idea is interesting, I'll think about it.

Really depends. Up until Opus 5.5 he kept insisting in using Fable and Astra for everything. From my experience what's driving up my costs are adversarial reviews. Some PRs go for 7 or 8 rounds before a signoff. Agents (Opus+) keep saying the findings are legit so it's hard to cut them short.

I don't have a problem. YOU have a problem.

Dark dashboard titled “SOLIDWORKS FARM DESKTOPS” shows 5/5 live desktops, refreshed every second, with a lease through 2026-09-26T04:12:32Z. All five tiles are marked READY. Their
SOLIDWORKS windows show a black knob, a long threaded screw, a white cylindrical part partly covered by a cookie notice, a large gear, and a mechanical assembly.

Current AI harnesses are definitely not optimized for CAD work. I only got the sketch sheet on the right because I asked for it beforehand.

Dark terminal screenshot says the farm launch is awaiting Main’s GO, with an optional canary; nothing launches during
the freeze. A vendor comparison for MHA-147 must run on “amet” or a worker with the file copied in because
91375A106.SLDPRT is gitignored. It also says dtasm’s ACK and Main’s GO are pending, and PR2 awaits the user’s pick.
Below, a “Rocker Q4” selection menu highlights the recommended choice: “(a) axial #2-56,” described as giving a 2.07
mm shaft wall, meeting the 2.0 mm target, matching the photos, and using Ø8 washers. Other options listed are axial
#4-40, radial #2-56 in a Ø16 ball, and radial #4-40 in a Ø19 ball.

Engineering comparison sheet titled “#743 Q4: rocker pivot shaft (MHA-065) retention at the bracket ear (MHA-123),”
with three scaled section views; inboard is left. (a) Axial end screws: a #4-40 screw gives 1.73D thread engagement
and 1.74 mm of shaft wall; #2-56 gives 2.07 mm. This option matches the photos and avoids a ball, but needs Ø8
washers. (b) A radial #2-56 set screw in the existing Ø16 ball gives 1.65D engagement; the ball extends 3.2 mm past
the ear’s inner face into the washer space. (c) A radial #4-40 in a Ø19 ball gives 1.67D engagement; the ball extends
5.1 mm past the ear and interferes with the hub or washer unless moved outboard. The drawing notes that the larger
ball reuses MHA-147. Bracket is black, shaft blue-gray, balls gray, screws gold, and end hub light blue; a scale bar
marks 10 mm.

First impression of MiMo v2.6 Pro are quite good. Clear thinking trace and not overly verbose in medium mode. Used less common omp tools like learn properly on the first try. Tokens per seconds are good. And, obviously, cost is awesome. Curious to try the ultrafast mode later.

RT @composio: Here’s how the 4 new harnesses scored: - Pi Agent passed 20 of 30 tasks. Deep Agents (by LangChain) passed 16 of 30 tasks. Hermes Agent passed 15 of 30 tasks. Prime Agent passed 15 of its 24 valid runs (6 runs were excluded; more on that later).

As expected, lots of part fitting bugs caught and fixed as the assembly doc was authored but agents did a great job in the end. $1100 in API equivalent costs. $700 Opus + $325 Fable + $75 Astra. 54 subagents in total, <5 in parallel.

Sheet 1 of 3 of engineering drawing MHA-A04, "frame assembly," rev v36, from Albert Michelson's Harmonic Analyzer: A Project For Hobby Machinists. At left, a small 1:8 front elevation of the frame in working position, with section arrows A-A at the base joint and B-B at the top joint, dimensioned to a top cross-bore axis height of 1018.0 mm (reference 1044.8). Center and right are two hatched section views at 1:3 — Section A-A through the base plate and Section B-B through the top casting, both showing the four rounded corners where tubular columns pass through, cross-bore screw holes, an internal rib structure, a gooseneck hub with set screw at left, and the engraved maker's nameplate at right. Title block gives general tolerances (.X ±0.8, .XX ±0.51, .XXX ±0.13, drilled holes +0.10/0, angles ±1°), "remove burrs and break sharp edges R0.25 or chamfer 0.25 max," threads UNC/UNF class 2A/2B, finish and material "see component drawings," third-angle projection, units mm.

Sheet 2 of 3 of engineering drawing MHA-A04, "frame assembly," rev v36. Top is a 10-row bill of materials: 1 MHA-035 two-plate frame base (qty 1); 2 MHA-083 open-end tubular frame column (4); 3 MHA-089 rocker-arm support casting (1); 4 MHA-039 1/4-20 x 5/8 hex-head screw, 18-8 SS (4); 5 MHA-077 top-frame casting (1); 6 MHA-133 steel push-on cap for 1 in OD tube (4); 7 MHA-086 engraved brass maker's nameplate (1); 8 MHA-030 brass #4-40 x 1/4 fillister-head slotted screw (4); 9 MHA-132 zinc-plated steel #10-32 x 1-3/4 narrow fillister-head slotted screw (8); 10 MHA-118 steel 1/4-20 x 5/8 square-head cup-point set screw (1). Below is a tall isometric exploded view at 1:7, rendered in teal and grey: a dark rectangular base plate at the bottom, four vertical silver tubular columns rising from it, the teal top-frame casting floating above with push-on caps and screws exploded off it, the triangular rocker-arm support casting and the nameplate pulled clear of the base. Balloon callouts 1–10 point to each part. Caption: "Exploded view 1:7 — see sheet 3 for installation order."

Sheet 3 of 3 of engineering drawing MHA-A04, "frame assembly," rev v36. The left two-thirds is text. "Match-fit and assembly sequence," ten steps: rough-cut the MHA-083 columns oversize and fit each to its assigned MHA-035 socket as a close hand-slip with no perceptible rock, retaining orientation match marks; pilot-transfer the lower cross-bore axis through both tube walls using the existing casting bores, then enlarge both walls to dia 5.00 so the MHA-132 shank passes freely without thread contact; reseat the columns, fit the MHA-077 top casting with its hub opposite the nameplate end, and set every cross-bore axis to the controlling top-axis height from sheet 1; final match-cut each column to its actual base/top/cap stack; repeat the pilot-transfer at the top axis; reassemble and install eight MHA-132 screws from the pilot-drilling side; verify cap recess clearance and push the caps on; seat the MHA-089 casting with four MHA-039 screws; install the nameplate with four MHA-030 screws; start MHA-118 in the gooseneck hub with its cup point clear. Below, "Assembly-only checks" lists five verification items covering match-mark alignment, screw-head seating and thread engagement, cap seating and undistorted tube ends, flatness of the casting and nameplate, and an unobstructed gooseneck bore. At right is an isometric render of the finished assembly at 1:7 — teal base and top frame, four silver columns, triangular support casting and brass nameplate on the deck.

The name is misleading now. It has long diverged from pi and v2 is a rewrite so direct comparisons with pi no longer apply.

000

Does anyone else agree? It may come with too many bells and whistles out of the box but it's easier to turn off some annoying features, like snapcompact, than to customize pi from scratch. I like it.

NEW: Alexis Mercedes Rinck has proposed an amendment to Rob Saka's SAFER Streets Act that would give the City Traffic Engineer explicit authority to implement street changes in historic districts (Pioneer Square, Pike Place) without getting the approval of the local boards.

Effect: Currently, physical changes in designated historic, special review, and
landmark districts are reviewed by community volunteer boards facilitated through
the Department of Neighborhoods. The authority of the City Traffic Engineer to
construct traffic control devices, such as markers, signs and signal devices, used
to inform, guide and control traffic, including pedestrians, motor vehicle drivers,
and bicyclists, in these areas is unspecified. This amendment would clarify that
the City Traffic Engineer’s authority is over all City right-of-way, including
designated historic, special review, and landmark districts. It would also specify
that traffic control devices in such areas are not subject to landmark designation,
nor do construction of traffic control devices require a Certificate of Approval1. The
amendment allows the Traffic Engineer to coordinate with the Department of
Neighborhoods or the landmark preservation boards to minimize design conflicts
in alignment with the historic, cultural, architectural, or geographic significance of
the district.
