I would love a Kagi MCP to give my agents a better web search tool but they don't seem interested. I would pay for this.

I feel sorry for Kagi. I've paid for the last couple of years as I support a better web search.

But I've found my web searching is so small now with AI.

I checked and I did less than 300 Kagi searches last month so downgraded my plan.

I wish them the best but timing is a b**.

Because AWS technical expertise are second to none. And for most companies their AWS spend is small % of overheads. Sure they could spend less but their marketing department is lighting money on fire so that would be premature optimization.

It's so depressing how many comments here are just people reacting to words ... Just like they were a small LLM trained to associate "Elon" with words like "Nazi".

HN really needs a better way to surface comments based on value rather than just votes which have become increasingly tribal affiliation driven like Reddit.

Your claim is very misleading. Those states have other laws and allow aggregating theft occurances below those thresholds mentioned.

I've been using Grok Build over the last couple weeks. It's actually a very good CLI. The Grok Build 0.1 model isn't great but can also use Composer 2.5 which is excellent. Well worth trying.

This is very true. There's also a habit where people are reluctant to get their vehicles batteries low as well. Folks seem reluctant to get below 20%. I think it comes from learned behavior from smartphones.

I will happily arrive at a supercharger with 1%.

Composer 2.5 fast (via Grok) is honestly amazing. Its been implementing everything I've asked and getting it right first time. Been impressed with it's front end ability.

If this was the last model I could ever use I think I would be happy.

Yes tho I'd argue that Rocket Lab has the finances to easily weather a few more years of Neutron set back if that ends up happening (fingers crossed it doesn't happen). They aren't going bust anytime soon. So I don't see the downside as being zero.

The difference is Europeans expect government to "fix" things. Americans expect companies to do that.

Eg, the disastrous energy policies all across Europe which have made price of energy insanely high with no hope of ever coming down (these high prices are all locked in with long term contracts).

America just builds lots of new power. Because of fewer market distorting policies the new power comes online at cheaper marginal rates so the price doesn't go up. And now Texas has some of the greener and cheapest energy in the West.

You are correct in the sense that they can stop work in a way many generic server use cases can't (which is seen in lowering power supply reliability requirements as the article mentions), but running expensive servers at 50% utilization would dramatically affect the revenue generated per capital invested - IE you couldn't afford to buy the servers.

The established AI players have no financial interest to make LLM available locally. They aren't hardware companies and if running LLM requires paying them to host the models as well then they can naturally capture more of the value chain = more revenue.

Apple is the only player here where it would play into their natural hardware incentive to get you to pay more for better hardware. It would make sense for them to find a way to run LLM locally (eg, newer architectures that others here have pointed out).

Interesting times.

If he was in the military I presume military police has some jurisdiction.

I would also presume there's some mutual law where if a foreign military member is on another countries soil (if you're in the military you can't just go on holiday to a foreign country without extra paperwork) that allows counties to retain their military courts jurisdiction even on foreign soil.

That doesn't mean he gets off - just that the trial would be under US MP law. To be honest, the consequences of which would be higher for him than under UK law.

For the longest time, elastic didn't even have a cloud offering. And by the time they did it was far far too late.

In the early days AWS elastic offering was very weak. It had lots of foot guns and operational problems. We tried hard to use an more native elastic offering and would have preferred it, but it didn't exist.
