Saying Spain is rich while half the population lives on 1,000 euros per month (mil euristas) is crazy or just very "technically accurate".

AI 2040: Plan A 12 days ago

I think he means the end of the world as we know it. Which is probably true, but the timeline could be 20 years, 2000 years, or more.

"Almost" is doing a lot of work there; there is no alternative to Fable.

With that frame of mind, nothing would be done. Why make another search service if Altavista and Lycos already do it?

This is like telling someone who wants a motorcycle that they should get better at running instead.

It is funny that after all their tech advancements, the site is struggling under heavy load.

I give Codex a try with every new version, and we don't match, so this isn't true for everyone.

Some of that is debasement, but some of that is that there is no other brand like Apple.

Yeah, it is easier to destroy than to create. Models will always be better at hacking than at building.

Harness is a big one, Claude Code still has trouble editing files with tabs. I wonder how many tokens per day are wasted on Claude attempting multiple times to edit a file.

I'd recommend anyone to ask Claude to show used context and thinking effort on its status line, something like:

``` #!/bin/bash input=$(cat) DIR=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.workspace.current_dir // empty') PCT=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.context_window.used_percentage // 0' | cut -d. -f1) EFFORT=$(jq -r '.effortLevel // "default"' ~/.claude/settings.json 2>/dev/null) echo "${DIR/#$HOME/~} | ${PCT}% | ${EFFORT}" ```

Because the TUI it is not consistent when showing this and sometimes they ship updates that change the default.

With all the low quality code that's being generated and deployed cybersecurity will be the golden goose.
