If you retire at 30 with $1.7M, you’d be getting about $45-$60k/year for the rest of your life

Maybe if you live by yourself, or have someone contributing a second income, and inflation doesn’t catch up with you

That was fun! Although I was automatically retired, with $1.7M in net worth. That’s hardly enough, especially in California. Maybe the game should ask for a goal number before starting

Very cool. It reminded me of the DeCSS t-shirts, which had source code with the decryption keys for DVDs

Is this the same tech the Midjourney scanner device is using?

It was also cool discovering the ATA commands to drive the modem. You could “war-dial” numbers, or manually initiate Internet connection, or connecting to a bbs

I wonder what’s the % of players that use nukes in games like Civilization (I know I used them at least once on every game I made it far enough to have the technology)

Amazing show btw, highly recommend it

Is this the AI version of ADHD?

Thank you. I want something like that, but that uses codex/claude code as agents (through their corresponding subscriptions), instead of having to create ad-hoc agents + api keys
nico
·vorige maand·discuss
On a tangent, can anyone recommend good coding agent orchestration tools or platform? Something to launch, manage and monitor codex or claude agents in multiple machines

Ideally self-hostable/open source

I know claude code has a lot of that internally built in already, but it’s claude-only

And that’s pretty much what they show in the demo, plus asking it for directions on Apple Maps (which it can also do already), and searching for pictures on the Photos app (which I just tried and it can’t do - so it looks like that’s the main feature)

The demo video there is so underwhelming. They show very basic stuff, which I assumed Siri was already capable of doing... not sure what the big improvement is

AIPAC publicly brags about this.

That sounds a lot like the justifications Claude and ChatGPT give when confronted about something they did wrong, or when asked to provide a customer support response about software issues
nico

Thank you for the explanation, makes it a lot more digestible

Just nit picking a bit:

> Training any model to express some truth table is very hard

What kind of models are you including here? Truth tables can be modeled in regular code very easily and reliably. And I’m sure there are many deterministic models that could do the same. Are you talking about LLMs in particular or a certain category/type of models?

I just made the connection to why they had a scene like that in a Korean show on Netflix, cool

For fun and customization. This guy used Claude to decompile and recreate an old mac game: https://www.tiktok.com/@philsmy/video/7644482888544636180

Loved SimCity growing up.

Would it be possible to automate porting the windows version into a mac or web version? Like giving a long-running agent the task and some tools to check/play the game on both platforms?

I wonder if via-skill could become a software distribution channel. A bit like what has happened with LLM wiki

Agreed. This is truly remarkable and it raises a lot of questions about the future of labor and the place for robots/ai in society

The Animatrix series paints an interesting, if catastrophic, picture of how things could develop
