Given that pre-paid plans are the most popular way to subscribe to Claude, it quite plainly is a "the less tokens you use, the more money Anthropic makes" kind of situation.

In an environment where providers are almost entirely interchangeable and tiniest of perceived edges (because there's still no benchmark unambiguously judging which model is "better") make or break user retention, I just don't see how it's not ludicrous on its face that any LLM provider would be incentivized to give unreliable answers at some high-enough probability.

I have troubles calling something a "cash grab" when it's been arguably the single most influential project in the hacker/maker/DIY electronics space.

I don't doubt the boards could've been sold cheaper, but they clearly were doing something right given how much it changed the hobbyist landscape

I feel like this has to be a toolchain issue, there's no reason the pin number -> register table couldn't be resolved at compile time, similar with conditionally compiling certain things based on the CPU features.

I'm not saying it's not a real or an easy problem, just that I wonder if it truly is the reason Arduino is "bad"

Huh, I got 9/10 for GPT-5, and I was pretty convinced I was picking 4o in several questions based on the style. Interesting!

The questions were pretty much unlike anything I've ever asked an LLM though, is this how people use LLMs nowadays?

I actually have no idea what you mean with the example, all the toolbars on the page fit 4 or more buttons, I tried viewing it in various window widths, can you be a bit more specific?

They do, `map` and `and_then`.

As for the article, I'm also a bit confused because I'm really not sure whether people write that sort of code at the beginning "very commonly" - match and `ok_or` to handle None by turning them into proper Errors is one of the first things you learn in Rust.

Cool, sounds like an organization that is heavily incentivized to make their communication hard to intercept and eavesdrop on.
