A race to the bottom on pricing is just going to get you very low quality customers which in turn will tank your sending reputation. I think you're approaching this backwards.

Now it's self service

They lose billions a month

What is the differentiator here? Why would anyone choose this?

I know what it is.

Eh? It did work. You'd get it confiscated off you.

I'm so sorry you can't have the extremely intelligent and expensive model for $20

Well yeah they realised that

It's not the point of the visa, the O-1 is supposed to be for people of extraordinary ability, eg Nobel Prize winners. It's used for software engineers.

It seems odd to me that Codex doesn't carry the plan file through context compaction? Claude does this, it re-reads it in full from disk

The O-1 has also been abused for a long time, basically any software engineer kid who gets into Y Combinator has been getting an O-1

The atmosphere is helium so I don't think you'd be living there long.

Are you also responsible for AskUserQuestion swallowing the preceding output on Fable? It asks me questions about its response that it never even showed me. It's (and I hate to use the term) unusable.

It is such a shame that Anthropic has no interest in QA, because they have incredible models, and bafflingly broken products. In an alternate universe Claude Code would be 10x better than where it is now...

This is, of course, nowhere near comparable to PlanetScale.

Stripe is already building itself out to be essentially a global bank, your income stays within there and you can pay vendors directly out of your Stripe balance to theirs.

You're right, and that's the sharpest thing you've said all day.

That is absolutely a normal thing to say

Yes it was an intentionally added feature, that was extremely bad.

I really love the Opus/Fable models but I'm honestly sick to death of the buggy product. The CLI always has some weird issue. Right now it doesn't even output messages before tool calls, it just swallows them and they disappear.

I don't like OpenAI as a company, but they appear to have QA, and that is probably enough to get me to switch.

Not really. They dramatically overhaul the products. Bloated staff are cut, old tech-debt-saddled systems are thrown out and rewritten. In some cases they basically just keep the brand and the database and rebuild the product around that, in a smaller and leaner manner.

I actually think the model is interesting.

"In their right mind?" I wouldn't start a project in anything other than TypeScript now. My platform is a monorepo across web and native mobile (Expo), and is TypeScript throughout. All my types flow everywhere automatically. Even the shape of a database table is shared with the native app with tRPC. Nothing can break the type contract anywhere. How would you do that with another language?

We could just not have AI models that generate CSAM I don't think that's too much to ask

Read the post

It sounds like they've switched to a "native audio" model which if I understand right is what Gemini has had for quite a while?

I said that

That landed a few months ago

Cloudflare Snippets were actually better if you wanted to run logic before the cache (they are entirely free)

I was a bit confused what this adds other than just standard CDN-Cache-Control page caching that we do now. Some quirks I've found;

- You still get billed per request, whether the request hits cache or not (but don't get billed for CPU time)

- You now get billed for static asset requests! This makes no sense to me. "One thing to watch: when caching is enabled, requests that are normally free — static asset requests and worker-to-worker invocations through service bindings or ctx.exports — are billed at the standard request rate, because each one now consults the cache in front of your Worker." Yeah that sounds like a bug that just happens to generate them more money.

- The cache key automatically has the worker deployment version, so even gradual deployments populate their own cache which is nice

- It seems like you can set a totally custom cache key? But that was previously Enterprise only, can't see if that's still the case here.

The copy paste approach is just a plain bad idea, I am not sure why this doesn't get more criticism

It's so staccato throughout, a human wouldn't write like this.
