but everyone sees the writing on the wall

i'm... not sure? This assumes ~stagnation in task-possibility. We've had ~exponential progress for like 3+ years now; I'd have never dreamed the tooling I hammer daily would exist in my lifetime just.. 3? years ago. And it's improving daily.

Maybe Open will win, maybe Closed will keep pushing the envelope. The world here is raw enough i don't think anyone can make any significant claim other than 'holy shit this is useful and moving Fast'.

and honestly that's my entire point. There is no Good Guy here.

and were not called the attackers.

This is the mental mental leaps I'm struggling with here. Did you not live through that era where they were explicitly and repeatedly called out as 'attacks'? They were generally tolerated/hardenee around as they provided value-in-discoverability.

i mean, i got 5 replies in a minute of asking, and none deny it's an "attack", they simply say "good". HN should be better discourse.

to give me a cheaper service that fits my use case?

Because they aren't giving you a cheaper service that fits your use case.

Best Case scenario, it's a trillion-dollar behemoth stealing from a billion-dollar behemoth so they can add their own explicit restrictions/weights on top to influence the masses.

There is no 'robin hood' here, any perceived value you get is clearly and explicitly tainted. "I don't care if it doesn't show me non-party-line results - It makes me a cheap UI !". Ethics/morals be damned.

We are just very pleased with it regardless

You don't trust the multi-billion dollar behemoth, but you trust the militarized multi-trillion dollar behemoth to play 'robin hood'?

i can't get my brain around the mental loops here.

Distillation is NOT an attack.

From the article -

28.8 million exchanges with Claude through almost 25,000 fraudulent accounts

wouldn't that be considered an attack? Not sure what I'm missing here.

are you seeing large token usage by GLM 5.2

the statement isn't "GLM 5.2 has large token usage", it's "GLM 5.2 has large token usage vs modern Opus".

I haven't used it, but this wouldn't surprise me. I see ~30% lower token usage for better results with Opus 4.8 vs 4.6 (and i had great results with 4.6)

I ~never liked kids. I debated having them, then kind of settled on it (was planned). I expected to be be present but... aloof? Like my dad was.

Instead, I have buddies. I wouldn't call it unhealthy, just much more invested than I expected to be.

I had no idea I would turn into a helicopter. it's kind of crazy how it rewires you.

my youngest is 8, and it still physically hurt to read the intro.

no company will justify spending $20k/month when they can hire 10 more developers instead.

one big enough to license the model and self host on existing infra.

Huh. This surprises me. Digging, it seems it looks like it comes down to interpreted + dynamically typed vs compiled and statically typed.

TIL. If i were to start a truly vibe project; Go would have a significant leg up.

same. My first real exposure to coding was hacking Drug Wars on my brothers old ti-89 in math class.

didn't msft write an ~entire new file system specifically to scale git to the windows code base?

I have fuzzy memories on reading about it.

i assume they simply fixed the status page in 2018.. lol.

Does October 7th count?

I bought my LR Model 3 in 2020 for ~42,000, ~15k cheaper than a v6 3 Series at the time. A v6 5 series is another significant jump up in price/market.

Not sure which car you compare it to specifically from those manufacturers

My comparison at the time was a Honda Civic, BMW 3 Series, and that was kind of it.

I generally consider the Model 3 interior roughly middle between the Honda and the BMW, while having worlds better tech, twice the hp, and - Electric (when they were still rare).

There really was nothing like it at any price point at the time, and i still consider it a great car (though of course not perfect).

Why did Tesla work initially?

Becaues they were ~first to market - and honestly, as a tesla driver for the last 6 years - It's the best car I ever owned (including Toyota, Mazda, and domestics).

6 years ago, for the effective price of a Honda Accord, I was able to get a car with excellent AWD for NorEast winters, perfect weight distribution (previously drove a Miata for comparison), could beat ~95% 'super cars' in a straight line, and it got 140MPG.

6 years ago. And I've had 0 maintenance outside of tire / air filter changes since. There was nothing anything remotely like it on the market, and it still holds up today. That's incredibly compelling.

Then PedoDiver, and it's been downhill from there... I'll likely get an R3X when it comes out.

humans are naturally slimy. Anything you touch for 8h/day will be slimy in turn. Some of us are slimier than others.

Would the world be safer (or more endangered) if Iran had a nuclear weapon

Is there any chance this invasion has ~anything to do with Iran having nuclear weapons?

(ive got a thinpad and the platic build is just terrible. The screen bends when pulling it to open the laptop).

Which thinkpad? Typing on a loaded P16s currently; it's not metal like old MBP or even my travel surface pro, but it feels... fine.

yea... I would consider it a ux regression to do the OPs tweaks.

To each their own; glad it's an option :)

NeoVim w/ render-markdown.nvim

(not to poo on OP - I dig a clean TUI renderer, I have BAT installed for a reason)

I used opencode happily for a while before switching to copilot cli. Been a minute , but I don't detect a major quality difference since they added Plan mode. Seems pretty solid, and first party if that matters to your org.

This just reads like Elon trying to leverage the AI bubble to prop up SpaceX stock to me.

I mean, Hallucinations are 95% better now than the first time I heard the term and experienced them in this context. To claim otherwise is simply shifting goalposts. No one is saying it's perfect or will be perfect, just that there has been steady progression and likely will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

I believe his argument is that now that you've defined the limitation, it's a ceiling that will likely be cracked in the relatively near future.

I'd just do it over a Docker mount (or equivalent) to keep it a bit more lightweight. Can keep the LLM running local; and teach it how to test/debug via instruction files.

My wife and I work. We are blessed that we make enough that we buy ~anything reasonable we want, have 2 kids in private school, and max out our 401k/roths/backdoor every year.

What is the value in detailed tracking of personal finance? We audit ~every credit card bill when it comes in for oddities, but don't really pay attention where everything goes as long as more comes in than goes out.
