i now spend 2-3 hours per day reading research papers and building something with goose that i didn't think it capable of doing. i never see a line of code, and never trapped in an IDE.

it works nearly every time, but does requires some nudging every now and then. incredible.

all open source, model independent, full autonomy. use it or fork it today: https://block.github.io/goose/

Cool, what's the project?

nostr:nprofile1qqsd0hut8c2pveuk4zkcws9sdap8465am9dh9cp8d2530yssuflcracpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dsq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet5pk77q7

Which LLM provider(s) are you using? What gives the best results? Is there any priority to make sure ollama performs well? Because it still seems rather slow compared to the commercial APIs.

I’ve been using LibreChat for this non-IDE workflow… because you can use it as a webapp from your phone when self-hosting! So cool… vibe coding from the phone, terminal access and MCPs in my pocket.

I’d totally use Goose if it that were possible. Sometimes it’s nice to drown out the code and just vibe.

Which LLM model(s) are you using?

opus 4 and gemma3/qwen3 local

upstream gemma3 doesn't have tool support ootb though, which one are you using?

what's that? 😏

What hardware?

Nice

I love using the terminal and reading code myself, that'd probably be part of my workflow. Man I'm gonna have to get this installed!

Ive only briefly tried it out a little while back, but that shit is COOL

How much time/work do you put into each prompt? I go back and forth between long detailed requests and iterative conversations. Still trying to get an intuition for when to use each approach.

This is fascinating. I used to tell my students to read papers and implement the theory as code. Sometimes, this was even the very first implementation of the math people had written up years ago.

Today, I can give an agent a few papers or even let it to do the research itself and come up with a first implementation of the research to see if the idea is worth pursuing or not. It does a better job than most students would.

The learning experience for the student from doing the actual work is missing here – and it can't be replaced – that much is clear. But from a pure research planning perspective, this unlocks a whole new paradigm for exploring new ideas.

We're accelerating fast, in every direction at once.

What a brilliant idea.

Can you build a notebook over Nostr for me? 😁

This is why I love being on NOSTR.

Thanks. Is it any different then ollama?

🫡

Nice.

Is there a reader / app you use to listen?

Excellent! Enjoy!

Open source everything.

goose: if you are bored, there are some fascinating niche boxes in the archive about how male sibling relationships shape the majority of social interactivity - and how the brains of only-children do not relate to birth-hierarchy

social expectation dynamics. including in the masonic (masculine) scaffolding.

jack logging in to goose: "hi goose - let's learn about learning to train ai today because you are an ai and that's really interesting to me so i can learn how to train you for me".

goose: "good morning jack - sure! let's start!".

Vibe coding appears to be the latest wave. Has there been a vibe coding competition?

nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwd4hhxarj9ec82csafn79u , i think there should be a vibe coding global competition for creating an app/client on Nostr using Goose and other added components.

A panel of judges will select the best app/client for a top prize. 🏆

I wanna see what people around the world can create on a protocol like Nostr. If given the opportunity with an incentive, what can be created? There’s plenty of global talent around the world and they’re hungry. Literally and figuratively. Bragging rights is a bonus too. 🚀

Consider making an announcement.

Having a play and trying to get Goose to generate me a web app that displays the Bitcoin price (or at least the Moscow time) on a QLOCKTWO face.

Which AI model are you using it with?

Also curious about the projects you do

Build an app a day to keep the devs away.

I got curious and tried out the tool because you can use it with a custom provider. After a little bit of testing it seems to work well, but holy does using it burn through tokens fast. With just a few queries asking it about a repo to test it out, nothing even requiring it to write, compile, or test code I burned through 50 cents using Sonnet 4.

I could easily burn through a minimum of $20 in a day.

I'll probably have to stick with Aider for now. I still like reading the patches the LLM is applying and keeping myself more in the loop.

Love this for you, Jack! 🤗 I bet you are mighty excited and in flow with this new way of creation and building.

I can't wait to step into some kind of flow with it. I am soooooo close to getting goose to act agentic for me. And I can't wait for it to help organize my digital life and open up bandwith where I can just focus on building the unimaginable in flow 😌

So looking forward to co-creating and collaborating with you too in divine timing, if and when it aligns!

After repeatedly reading about Goose, I have finally set it up for myself. It works like a charm so far and I wonder why I haven't started sooner :) 🔥

I tried Goose some time ago with local Qwen-3, but it was never able to call the right tool.

I thought it was a limitation of Qwen's orchestration capability, given its size.

The line between billionaires and my unemployed friends is getting blurrier every day.

Jack is on fire 🔥🔥

This is amazing .. thanks nostr:npub16l0ck0s5zened29dsaqtqm6z0t4fmk2mwtszw64fz7fppcnls8mss3yj9s .. install is effortless .. it even tells you that Google has a free LLM - Gemini 2.5 Flash .. Cli rocks on Debian .. except that I had to export the GOOGLE_API_KEY ... keep in mind it is NOT GEMINI_API_KEY ( which most chatbots would tell you to export if you are on a headless server ssh-ing in ..

Jack, any timeline on a full Windows desktop version?

Good morning Jack. I would like to talk with you privately first either with Jack Mallers or without since i believe both of you work together and are on the same team.

I will fly anywhere in the world to discuss what we are doing to see what you might like to do with NOSTR fundraising

I think you will not only see that it fits your mission, it far exceeds anything you ever imagined as far as value which is why I only want to tell one of you or both of you privately at first.

You can then decide a couple of strategies which we can discuss since it means far more than billions of dollars in revenue as well as for special needs kids and non profits around the world, but is a completely transformative monetary solution that

answers the VALUE problem for users, merchants, and non profits simultaneously and thus triggers massive adoption.

If it’s not then we did not waste too much time maybe a 1/2 a day somewhere and since I bought all the food and drink we had a good time anyway🙂

Thank you Jack, let me know if you would like to discuss or look over a few papers I have created or the wire frames rough draft

I think this is a really interesting approach.
