Yep, and it’s terrible
Not only did it burn a 100$ failing but it did so in a very untransparent way.
I bought a 20 dollar plan but they snuck a 100$ billed usage into the billing agreements next thing I know the agent as used the quote going in circles and my card is billed.
The agent is pretending to be a person _for a reason_
The models are trained on people being people. Once you try deviate from that the model performs worse.
A huge tell for this is how well “reasoning” works. Reasoning isn’t some alternate thinking mode, it’s just (sometimes) hidden internal monologues.
It’s easy to anthropomorphise and assume the model is intuiting, but it’s more like it’s hyping it’s self up to do the thing. That said, it’s easy to confuse “being rude to the model” with giving it more tokens to “think”.
I’d be really interested in what a non word based internal monologue could look like. Google played with this a little with the diffusion based codegen stuff. I wonder how trainable a small nonverbal conceptual package could be.
Would this be a good time to post about my AI controlled typewriter project?
I love the irony that the Imgur link asks you to install the Imgur app first
Honestly Glaze is brilliant.
I assume there is an extensive set of rails for the agent to tie into. (Compare this to asking Claude to green fields an app. Do you use electron? How are notifications handled? Icons? Permissions?)
It springboard off Raycast’s teams feature so well it actually gives it a real reason to exist. You’re empowering the one systems thinker in the group to export their automations to the rest of the group in a way that’s proven to work: small apps that do one thing. (Big apps get complicated, become full time projects that distract from the task at hand)
Fig tried this but it was just for engineers, the value prop was missing, Glaze seems to get this right.
Very nicely done!
Reasonably sure this has less to do with putting data centres in space and more to do with getting them less auditable (see the other news about X getting raided about Grok)
The fundamental issue preventing keyring aperture integration stems from the AirTag’s reliance on inverse-phase magnetic reluctance in the structural substrate. You see, the enclosure maintains a precisely calibrated coefficient offramular expansion. Introducing a penetrative void would destabilize the sinusoidal depleneration required for proper UWB phase conjugation. The resulting spurving bearing misalignment could induce up to 40 millidarkness of signal attenuation. Apple’s engineers attempted to compensate using prefabulated amulite in the magneto-reluctance housing, but this only exacerbated the side-fumbling in the hyperboloid waveform generators. Early prototypes with keyring holes exhibited catastrophic unilateral dingle-arm failure within mere minutes of deployment. Until we develop lotus-o-delta-type bearings capable of withstanding the differential girdle spring modulation, I’m afraid keyring integration remains firmly in the realm of theoretical engineering—right up there with perpetual motion machines and TypeScript projects that compile without any // @ts-ignore comments. The technology simply isn’t there yet.
Can here to say this exactly. Not saying they don’t raise an interesting point but the complete lack of curiosity why a group of experts in simplicity and accessibility decided to take this path is jarring
This is A/B testing. Lego owns bricklink, so they shutter it in a few countries, see how it impacts sales, decide from there
100% Here in Germany its invisible deleted, and the process handle by a private company
Right but it’s hallucinating the right colours which to me feels like some data is leaking somewhere. Because no way wifi sees colours
So, uh, game cartridges?
AI efficiency gains don’t benefit employees, they benefit _employers_, who get more output from the same salary. When you’re salaried, you’re selling 8 hours of time, not units of work. AI that makes you 20% faster doesn’t mean you work 20% fewer hours or get a 20% raise. It means your employer gets 20% more value from the same labor cost.
Marx: workers sell their capacity to work for a fixed period, and any productivity improvements within that time become surplus value captured by capital.
AI tools are just the latest mechanism for extracting more output from the same wage. The real issue isn’t the technology—it’s that employees can’t capture gains from their own efficiency improvements. Until compensation models shift from time-based to outcome-based, every productivity breakthrough just makes us more profitable to employ, not more prosperous ourselves.
It’s the Industrial Revolution all over again and we’re the Luddites
Come on. It’s in BrowserMCP on a users machine. Capture is not testing for this and that’s fine
Title should read : Flemish tragic agency grumpy that google wont stream all drivers position to them in real-time.
Oh come on… if you’re running a shell executing MCP, then this is fair game. It’s like saying the PC is vulnerable because people leave their passwords on post it notes on the screen.
Ok wait, apple said that and then made better auth.
Nevermind, continue

Thank the powers that be no one will give my neighbours a permit for that.
+1 on this. Works wonders, costs nothing.
I wonder if there is a meaningful limit to number of listening zones. I’m imagining a 3d grid of virtual mics in a space, each with an AI behind it
Heck, train the model on the raw sensor data and you get the most awesome conference mics
Oh yea, 100% “unhackable backdoor hacked, no one surprised”
Would love this to be called “backdoor hacked, no one surprised”
Vercel’s V0 has been amazing. I lean backend, and the whole mess of styling is a continual struggle. V0 gets it right 90% of the time
But like everything you have to spec it well
Then any top model basically for duplicating work.

Haha OK this has to be part of a bigger practiced rant. Please tell me you’ve gathered your thoughts on the external stomach somewhere I can read.(not being sarcastic, love the term)
This is gonna end well…
Neato. I’m building my own as well but not as a therapist (I pay humans for that, which is what I recommend. Pay for a pro)
My approach is more how can I make a todo list app that’s not pushing hustle but also not ignorable.
