A small team and an llm will tackle search?

They will run into many problems. The Google brand for search, the inability to index most of the web as a new crawler, the lack of the top browser, your own mobile OS, default search placement deals with everyone. And that doesn't even look at the technical issues, scaling or the lack of a business model to pay for it.

You could build your own Google drive many have from dropbox to mega or onedrive. Doc suite is possible but harder then you think.

LLMs were invented by people working at Google. LLMs won't kill Google it will offer them a new profit center.

You could rent it for $200-500 a day or $3000 a month and be on par with others in this space.

When you rent a machine like this, they probably will use it to the max. Lowing lifespan should be part of the equation.

You mention living in Scandinavia. Won't be an issue unless you want to play startup and live in a van. A child will focus you which might work out better for your career compared to typical drinking and partying at that age.

You can do a few things at once just not everything. Dropping excess socializing and you can probably work two jobs and still be a great father.

Sure they do they create co-operatives and pool resources together. They created banks, insurance that serve their needs. Farmers aren't some lone wolf. Farmers created universal health care in other countries like Canada.

They don't support the left and social politics of pushing trans, gay, racial, feminist policies. They believe in God and Christian values.

They work hard and expect others to and don't support a welfare state but that's different from collective benefits.

That's not a common path to coke. Those who sell coke don't want to deal with a less profitable product that can be purchased legally.

In the movies the drug dealer has an overcoat with every common drug ready to sell at any point. In reality people stick to one or products because there not dealing with multiple suppliers and carrying products for months until the right buyer comes along, they buy in bulk and sell quickly.

"Apps running in those compatibility layers are much less contained with less isolation from the Linux kernel, not more."

Being isolated a little bit more from the kernal offers an illusion of privacy meanwhile where you are, what you have installed, your photos and friends are available to other apps at a much higher level. I understand being able to slow down a nation state actor is important but most privacy concerns for average people happen at the OS level not the kernel.

A business analyst or product managers spends most of their time in meetings understanding customer requirements. Now they have to find time to build the project and fix bugs?

The business analyst use to hand off details to another person who would define detail technical specs like database fields names, type and size. Then the programmer would implement it.

Because reddit users are low quality users. Meta and Google can peak into your data and segment you to sell.

ChatGPT ads are low quality placed at the bottom barely noticed.

ChatGPT ads will get better. Meta's social userbase is drying up. Google keeps introducing and removing things from chrome to keep access to spy on you for them alone. We'll see how things pan out but in ten more years reddit ads will still be worthless.

Flash will get their faster then the sonnet tier which involves reasoning which is slow. And you don't need reasoning to center divs.

The sonnet tier sits below claude or chatgpt in terms of price but costs so much more than free models. If you are breaking downtasks now I'm not sure that 13 cents is worth it.

I've maxed out my chatgpt plus the first week and that include an smf forum rewrite. Trying my best I haven't been able to max out again. Things are setup that you need to max out your 5 hour window multiple times which becomes a job in itself.

At work I'm struggling to keep my claude bill around $500.
