Same! I did it by using private browser windows, this way I could see all the words.

So what’s a better form than the current capitalistic (?) model? Surely we would say the market is efficient, but at the same time it can’t be good for society that so much capital is localized with a few people (bezos, musk etc.).

If the roots for capitalism or similar market economies are so old, what would be better for society?

So what’s the functional difference to Cloudflare (free) DNS? Anything besides „this is European“ that makes me want to switch?

Their claim is that they are European, but I see a US support hotline in the footer and all prices are in Dollar. Seems to be targeting the US market (which is smart), but I don't know whether the European angle wins there.

You are right. Sometimes I do care about overly Americentrist views. But maybe better to now reply, thanks.

Ah, so this is ANOTHER price increase in a short timeframe? Thought I read about this before

I'm sure! But then I would need a custom PCB and spare time on my hand as well as possibly skills I don't have like SMD soldering.

I would love to buy a cheap (~50€/$) finished LoRaWAN gateway product, but those don't exist (yet) AFAIK.

This is awesome! Thank you rajveerb. Here is to hoping issues from 2022 will be fixed ;-)

I really like LoRa and its range, but unfortunately the hardware is much more expensive than e.g. Zigbee or WiFi devices.

Would love a LoRaWAN router but they run around ~80€/80$ and just for playing around with it it is a bit much.

I don’t think rushed is the right word. Copilot Cowork is still in beta (or „Frontier“ as MS calls beta now) and is not generally available. Beta features have bugs, good on this researcher to find bugs before its release.

> "I don't know why they expect to be able to discuss policy constraints without the government of the company's place of business knowing."

My interpretation of this quote would be that it is not liked that individual names are shared of people working in e.g. the competition authority. They are saying if you want to discuss things, come through the front door, i.e. contact the competition authority which maybe has an official government liaison and don't go after a person who is only responsible for writing some regulation.

The laws around the world are different. The laws within countries are different. Without giving any indication where you are from, nobody can give you any information.

There is a FAQ page https://annas-archive.gl/faq#donate which for example gives you a Monero address which would mean completely anonymous donation.

Is the co-authoring by Claude good practice or is it better to not have that reference in each commit?

I kind of feel all the commits by Claude everywhere are a marketing gig. In terms of transparency of course state somewhere that you are using AI, but personally it doesn’t help me seeing this on every commit. Ultimately you don’t know anyways which part of the commit was AI-inspired, AI-written or human-written, but the co-authored by Claude makes it seem that everything was done by AI and maybe diminishing its credibility.

And it’s quieter than many of its counterparts from other vendors. And it actually doesn’t cost that much - more expensive than cheap-o versions for sure, but then again significantly quieter, that’s their whole premise.

I enjoyed reading it. Informative and showing of their processes and giving some intricate details. And yes, the end goal is to sell products which is fine by me. I take this over any generic non-saying marketing-blurb any time.

Not quite. Premium models have different type of multipliers applied. The multiplier decides how many PRUs (premium request units or tokens) are used. These PRUs are replaced with different units with this announcement but the methodology remains the same: https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/billing/copilot-...

Sometimes the multiplier increase is significant like for Claude Opus 4.6 from 3x to 27x (https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/reference/copilot-billing...), meaning using that model will use up a lot more „tokens“ (whatever the new word for it is)

I really don't like tools that are not distributed via official package managers like apt / apk.

+1 for gpakosz/.tmux which I also wanted to mention here. I have it synced across all machines and a personal .tmux.conf.local that modifies some settings to my liking.
