This post convinced me to never try marijuana again.

I've tried 3 times, last time was a bad trip, I went into a very cold state (was shaking) and I was seeing random visual images every second. It felt like my brain was telling chat gpt to generate a random image on the fly none stop.

Anyways I was fine the next day, but I'm not trying it ever again if there is some risks associated with it. I took a low dose (half gummy).

I see some ways this could be exploited.

Let's say I have a nemesis, I could in theory spend 100$ in packages from China, and ship it to them. And they'll have to pay 245$ in tariffs ? (245% today).

I agree with what you said. But unfortunately I find this watch to have very little use. If I got it for free, I'd love it's value, wear it once or twice a year to some events, but that's pretty much it. On the other hand I sleep with my Garmin smartwatch, and use it every day. Between vibrating alarm clocks, notification synching (which allows me to use my phone less), NFC wallet, and all the fitness tracking for triathlons, it is one of the electronics I use the most.

I got so used to all the value my Garmin provides, I don't think I could handle replacing it with a watch that does nothing. It would be like going from a smartphone to an old nokia. I'd go crazy not being able to flip my wrist just to check the outdoor temperature.

I've tried self hosting. It is quite difficult, and either you are limited to low models, either you need a very expensive setup. I couldn't run this model on my gaming computer.

If I try other models, I basically end up with a very bad version of AI. Even if I'm someone who uses Anthropic APIs a lot, it's absolutely not worth it to try and self host it. The APIs are much better and you get much cheaper results.

Self hosting for AI might be useful for 0.001% of people honestly.

I thought Grok 2 was pretty bad, but Grok 3 is actually quite good. I'm mostly impressed by the speed of answering. But Claude is still the king of code.
