Starlink often struggles in thunder storms.

I think this is where people start to consider you a "Luddite".

Is it bad that you used a computer and Google and lifted information from other people to accomplish a task?

My father is a machinist and has built has knowledge off the skills and documentation of thousands before him, is that empty?

You still have to do the actual work, and where do you draw the line on "shipping more". If a farmer now has an automated tractor, does that mean his work is now trivial?

I am very curious what your Claude thread looks like. I have never had Claude swap languages, in fact my experience is the opposite, sometimes it holds on too much when working on a large code base.

Likely benchmaxxed. You see it in Qwen and other smaller models all the time.

Feel like the intro video is very odd.

Basically have an older lady (not their target audience) blatantly reading a teleprompter.

Why are they going after this audience? Retired people have no use for delegated tasks or information. They also are the least likely to use it and not get frustrated.

Looking at how much work GitLab has to do due to abuse of being open, I don't blame anyone for wanting to make that change.

I read this and laugh a bit because just 7 months ago the bar was so much lower and now we go "well duh of course it was able to make a working ios app from a game made 20 years ago... a game that was made 3 years before the first iPhone"

Is that 17M output tokens?

At 200k context that is only 85 requests for a whole week.

We can ban those too.

Since its behind an account wall, I can't tell if they are saying that Opus made the clone for cheaper or that Opus failed? It appears that Fable did far more "work" based on output tokens.

Aside: We should just ban Twitter links. Nobody should be required to make an account to view content on here.

I've seen this happen before when they launch new models. When Opus 4.7 came out it was "working" for 20+ min before I just exited entirely and waited till next day.

Went away on it's own.

Will go down in history as the single largest defeat in US history.

Paying your enemy $300bn to repair their country while you do not even take of your own would be the end of any other president, yet here we are.

this is probably the better solve as it removes many "claude-isms"

This is the most Claude pilled comment I've seen here.

I do think people tend to over estimate how much staff care at all about the outcomes of new initiatives. Rolling out a new in house chatbot? More likely just going to fire everyone and give you more work.

So many companies have such failed cultures they are just getting by delegating all serious matters to younger companies with people who actually care. If your staff never benefit from any of their work, nobody has any reason to care about how well you build your own in house Support / CRM / Chatbot / SaaS.

Not sure if this has been coined as a term, but its some form of "effort arbitrage"

I'm building a game where you learn to program golang or python and it all runs in webassembly, this way any student chromebook can just pick up and go.

That feels pretty revolutionary, no need to setup your local system to get core concepts.

Even have plans to use postgres in WASM (pglite), and I know a few real time apps use sqlite in WASM.

> I wonder why there isn't a mobile OS that simply lets you build apps with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS and gives you reliable storage without all this effort.

Because there isn't a 30% walled garden you can create with that.

You are just describing a broken site?

I've seen static sites with these same problems, 404 was invented decades before React...

Given how "smart" some of the 26b dense models are now, I would not be surprised to see a strong 40b MoE.
