Has this changed? When I looked pre-ga the requirements were you need to pay for the CPU 24x7 to attach a GPU so that is not really scaling to zero unless this requirement has changed...
Not going to lie I was exited to see this work lol. Thanks for the tip of the day. I love learning and not sure what I was expecting to happen when I opened up excel and hit alt + f11 but it was awesome to see it open. Already created my first user form and now the rest of the weekend its going to be difficult not to go down this rabbit hole. VB once paid my bills....
Looks like its still in the discussion phase, did not see a timeline but also did not read super close. Did learn about the tanstack-router which I had never heard of, so that was worth looking this up right there ;)
Going to tell the Preface story tomorrow at work, I guess if your reading this you now know my HN handle ;) Not sure I will do the 'game' but that into was worth clicking the link.
> I guess if your reading this you now know my HN handle
No worries. A great philosopher once wrote:
"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what your HN handle is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by an HN handle even more bizarre and inexplicable."
Watched the video and super excited to see where tech like this ends up in a few years. Was on the quest to find a split keyboard last week and ran across this. Ended up with a UHK, but man I thought hard about buying one (pair) of these. I was just worried about dust, dirt and overall longevity. Seems like something that would need to be worked on every month or two. The kit is reasonable and might be a fun (next) project.
Would be interested to hear about anyone's experience that owns one of these. How do they hold up? How long did it take to get used to using? Would you recommend to a friend?
Hi Michael, thank you for all the hard work that goes into the Phind models and congratulations on the new UI. Been a paying customer since first finding Phind here on HN in September.
Question: are there any plans to allow access via API to integrate the Phind models with the Continue plug-in (would also love to integrate into my personal RAGs)? Mostly using IntelliJ and integration would be awesome. Do have the VS Code plugin setup and use that when needed. Also running the smaller Phind models locally to use with Continue, but that only gets me so far without needing to open the real UI. If the API opened both the 405B for chat and the 70B for auto complete would be a big step in gaining more paying customers (IMO). No need to open the other models as those can be done with other API keys (if one wanted).
If there are no plans to open the models via API are there plans to support other IDEs (IntelliJ) with the chat feature?
I think it's a great move. I use Phind daily because I can ask it a question like "hey, what should I use for X" or "how do I connect Y to Z" and with refinement I can hone in on serious answers in ways that I cannot with Google searches.
I think building comparison tables is one of my favourite things to do here. Saves me considerable amounts of time and saves me from my biases to some extent.
I think the new Mermaid support is a great idea. It sure is handy that, before LLMs were even a thing, we were already collectively working on so many textual, readable languages to describe things like this! I am going to try to use it to create some architectural diagrams by adding requirements one by one.
If anyone is trying to run these models (DeepSeek-R1-xxx) on LM Studio you need to update to 0.3.7 Was trying all day to find the error in the Jinja template and was able to make them work by switching to manual then in my email see they added support in the latest version. It was a good learning experience have never really needed to fiddle with any of those settings as most the time they just work. If you did fiddle with the prompt hitting the trash can will restore the original and once you upgrade the Jinja parsing errors go away. Cheers!
