I'm not defending them or this behaviour but it sounds to me like they may think the message/threat this sends to silence future criticism from other people, outweighs the immediate sum.
(Internally I'm sure they could probably phrase it some other less negative way such as chance of people confusing the brand as still owned by them, etc) association
One of the technical things I don't really understand, is that it is not that hard to have an agent use tmux/etc to type into Claude code directly if you really want to? Like using tmux vs Claude -p are effectively the same aren't they?
Like, I understand the way they are subsidizing or whatever but on a technical level, I don't see how this makes any meaningful difference?
Am I missing something? Is this more about policy than the specific way it is invoked?
I think for kids in particular, it's important to remember that the educational discount brings it down to US 500.
That's not exactly nothing but that's a pretty reasonable amount for a non-crap laptop.
I certainly do not want to try to talk you into this particular phone – but just in the general case so you know, it's pretty easy to get physical Sims that you can download an eSIM onto.
I don't know much about how windows software is packaged, but I find that a solid majority of desktop software I use is in flatpack and server software in OCI images
I see references to vLLM in the GitHub but not which actual model (Llama, Mistral, etc.) or if they have a custom fine tune, or you give your own huggingface link?
I agree that a lot of plastic recycling is greenwashing from the manufacturing industry.
I've seen the statistics, and we need to take dramatic steps in order to reduce the amount of single use plastics – but don't you think that it's better that we try?
I hear you about micro plastics, and I think that it's important to try to do better to fix this.
But given the limitations of our imperfect world, do you really think that we would be net-net better off without even making an attempt to recycle it?
How quickly do you need to be able to restore? Is it commercial or homelab?
The most cost-effective option by far would be to put a NAS device someplace offsite. You could use tailscale to connect to it remotely.
After that, depending on your access patterns, either a glacier-style s3 service (aws or backblaze/etc), or a rented bare-metal server with big disks some place inexpensive.
Because the technical aspect of building the software like is the most fun and nerd–sniping, but perhaps the least important part in the process of building an audience and encouraging people to adopt it.
Just one point of view- but I have used both a decent amount and I drastically prefer CarPlay.
The native apps are … fine?
Again, it’s just my particular perspective, but I really appreciate that any CarPlay vehicle has the exact apps that I set up on my phone, already configured, etc.
There’s nothing Tesla could ever really do to compete with the convenience of already having all of my accounts set up and already having exactly the apps installed that I know I want.
One thing your comment it made me think of that I would find really useful as a future, if you did want to use a LLM as part of a browser-
I’d love for it to be able to read a given webpage and extract the different articles/pages into my RSS feed, even if that page doesn’t support RSS/Atom
Thanks! I’m glad to see that that’s something that works for you, and I think I understand what you’re using it for more even if it’s not something I would do.
Personally - No way. I don’t want to let generative AI anywhere near anything I write in email.
If I’m writing an email to somebody it’s because I have something to say, and I want to express my own feelings on it.
(I suppose theoretically I could see it I guess if I needed to talk to someone who only used another language?)
But when reading/composing email, I’m not just trying to optimize for raw information throughput- I’m trying to experience my life and the lives of the people who took time to write to me.
If my friend wrote me a letter, I want to enjoy every word of it. Even for something more perfunctory, the nuance of the particulars in the way it is expressed carries a lot of information.
Likewise, I suppose with reading sites like HN comments- I want to see the perspective of the people who are writing, that’s the whole point of reading comments.
It helps me to understand them as people, their use cases, and how they interact with an particular article.
If I didn’t care about any of that, if I didn’t want their perspective, I wouldn’t bother reading the comments…
Great point - Firefox container tabs and the “temporary containers” are essential to me and my workflow.
It makes it so trivial to be logged into multiple AWS accounts or isolate shared cookies by environment.
I would love to have a chromium based browser be able to do this- the best I have found is juggling profiles, but even that doesn’t work nearly as well as FF containers.
What exactly is the advantage of doing this vs just running a prompt in my existing coding agent?
I don't understand why this is a harness/project vs just for example, a skill?
I'm confident there's a good reason, I just don't understand.
