My key problem is not knowing what the real good alternatives are? I've trusted Mozilla for so long that I've fallen out of touch with a market that never really changed as much as it has in the last few years.

Guilty as charged. To steal a phrase from Reddit, "the true LPT is in the comments"

The true insightful discussion comes in the comments.

I was at the keynote, Llama was featured in the Copilot models section and called out specifically, as was Mistral.

I assume they just aren't at the point where they have the ability or want to host the compute to offer up Llama as an option as opposed to OpenAI, Anthropic and Google who are all offering the model as a service.

Any chance of multiple bonus numbers like the Euromillions offers?

To be fair, this problem is semi-solved by European airlines by having callsigns like BAW44W.

Which uses the last 2 numbers of the flight number, and an alphabetical character. BA use this on a lot of transatlantic type flights where delays etc can be an issue.

> Carmel did not invest in poverty. Carmel pushed it out of town. Now it is extremely wealthy per-capita.

What exactly does that mean, I'm reading it quite negatively, but the rest of this is positive, so I might be missing your true meaning.

They actually open sourced the iOS and Android applications, not the server code of course.

But that's even more of a fun thing from them!

Been a VATSIM member for many a year, both on the scopes and in the sim.

It's a fantastic hobby organisation, one filled with village politics and annoyances more than it needs to be.

But if you focus in on the sim and the scope, my opinion is there's no better hobby org focused on excellence in a collective.

My interpretation of hubris in this context is actually "pride" and it's what I've chosen to substitute the word for.

Having pride means that I want to write code that others view as good code and won't look at in the future as a mad hatter's ramblings.
