"aggressively optimistic timelines is also what makes it feasible to even attempt these things"

yawn, people keep making this excuse on behalf of the South African investor with poor technical expertise.

it helps they took many billions for a Moon effort they completely fumbled but never returned the cash

I might be misunderstanding something.

He uses $70 for remaining credit and says that's a good thing because it rolls over

But spending $70 on an API (he says he still prefers Opus) is far less cost effective than a Max plan on Anthropic.

The article seems to be nudging us to setup OpenRouter but the premise isn't fully true. A bit of diversity is excellent, but the costs are going to (largely) prohibit it in reality?

Yeah. I'm more concerned about the welfare needed to support millions of low-skill people in high living cost areas, in the age of AI. Those people are being sold dead dreams for the benefit of a handful of billionaires.

I assume this is highly staged as a set routine?

No less impressive, but is it likely each robot autonomously learned a routine? Or just got programmed for a very exact act?

I often ask Claude to update Claude.md and skills..... and sometimes I'll just do that in a new window while my main window is busy and I have time.

Wonder if this is close to triggering a warning? I only ever run in the same codebase, so maybe ok?

"Claude can’t read or edit anything you don’t give it explicit access to"

How confident are we that this is a strict measure?

I personally have zero confidence in Claude rulesets and settings as a way to fence it in. I've seen Claude decide desperately for itself what to access once it has context bloat? It can tend to ignore rules?

Unless there is a OS level restriction they are adhering to?

iCloud Photos.app seems to not be able to show some photos

But Photometor.app (owned by Apple) can...

So that's a little annoying... I wish I had more visibility on photos not showing up in Photos.app, and what it is that stops it showing them

Don't see why not, Taiwan's silicon is a global security asset.

These types of actions from China pre-dates that, even if there are similarities.

The irony of the inclusive imagery above DHH's head.

The blog post and homepage do a terrible job describing the product?

Wasn't Crypto recently revealed to be used by FBI (or similar) to track major criminals? They don't broadcast it, since they want people to continue thinking it's anonymous.

Hell yeah!

Great! Take the wheel of my car, Grok!

This looks lovely.... does it support remote D1?

"They're loaded with useless/barely-functional interior electronics that are poor copies of Tesla"

Wow, must be absolute crap if they are poor copies of Tesla, given how plastic and uncomfortable Tesla interior/ux is

There is a race to the moon happening right now

You don't hear about it much, for some reason.

Why wait? Fix things now.

I brought a Pro Max last year, after owning a perfectly fine 13 mini for years, and just my luck the latest iOS seems to make everything worse.

Face detection. Navigating photos. Unresponsive Apps. Confusing as f*ck UI.

No idea why I spent so much money on a Pro phone, should of stuck with the 13 mini and refused to upgrade the OS.

Well, Elon gets enormous amounts of tax dollars enabling him to move resources around between his investments. The billionaires aren't differentiable.

Cloudflare workers are so simple to just use immediately.

Why Is this flagged? Seems perfectly reasonable?

You seem to of watched a completely different video?

The video I watched encouraged you to listen to him, but not give him a bloated weighting.

That's from starvation.

On a very basic level, ignoring the extreme examples ... I wonder how much these tools send back home.

It seems very hard to see what they are accessing. Let alone control it. We just rely on them asking when they see fit to ask.

The minute Zuck and Google start offering you things for free, you have to wonder sometimes.

I mean, forget about denying cookie popups in your browser . We are galaxies beyond.

My main complaint with the regular app switcher is it shows all apps, when I'd happily hide most of them and just access them occasionally from the dock.

I use the free Alt-Tab app to hide most apps, works well.

It has screen recording though, bc it creates previews. So best to block it from accessing the network with LuLu, just in case.

Can gauge it for myself. You do you.

I certainly will not be equating Apple to Google or Microsoft.

For now.

Sure. But I am allowed to compare now to yesteryear, and on my own scale the differences are humungous.

You have my attention!

But in this day and age, I need to understand more about intentions, and what sustains projects like this.

For the moment I've settled on Safari simply because Apple makes its billions elsewhere, even if I am increasingly disappointed with how they are playing along with politics right now.

DHH seems to be driven by bitterness at Apple charging for inclusion in their walled garden. Fair enough, his choice. Interesting he includes his paid email service bundled in Omarchy.

Lots of truth there. But it's certainly worked wonders for the top tier of Indian society, being able to farm out labour. Akshata Murty certainly has had a fair slice of the cake, for example.
