Absolutely not. I know Elon retweet them a lot when Grok is good. This is how I discover the company. I like to follow them and look for benchmark for each LLM release.

Vals AI just affirm that Grok 4.7 is worse than Grok 4.6 (It ranks #24 on the Vals Index at 54.2%, down 5.0 points from Grok 4.6 (#14, 59.2%)) https://x.com/ValsAI/status/2102086608476590432

Noob question: what's the purpose of having so many request libraries? In JavaScript it's crazy, but in Python it's starting to feel the same: requests, httpx, httpx2... From my perspective, HTTP requests have been mastered f

Grok Build sucks compare to composer 2.5. Just use compose 2.5 and you'll have basically unlimited usage on the 40$ plan.

Compose 2.5 is the default model in Grok Build. And it's quite incredible. It's comparable to Opus 4.7 but faster and incredibly cheaper .

I’ve just started a new app with an Elm frontend. I’m using Grok Build, and it integrates really well. The compiler is incredibly helpful because it catches errors and gives clear explanations and the LLM can iterate over it. I’ve also adde

I don't know how they do this, but Paris is full of Americans living there. I think they stay for a few months. Maybe they just don't tell their company and the company still think they are working in the same place.

But they are getting dramatically better. What's the point of a crazy cheap model if it's shit ? I code most of the time with haiku 4.5 because it's so good. It's cheaper for me than buying a 23€ subscription from Anthro

To me, mini releases matter much more and better reflect the real progress than SOTA models. The frontier models have become so good that it's getting almost impossible to notice meaningful differences between them. Meanwhile, when a s

It's because they are getting so good it's impossible to recognize them. Haiku 4.5 is already so good it's ok for 80% (95%?) of dev tasks.

I'm all about trashing Europe when it's needed but I think this post is an hidden PR post. It seems so fake to me and so far from the experience I have here in France.

you should not ask indie hackers for advice and you should not hang out with them. If you build a product for marketers, you should hang out with them and ask them for advices, not indie hackers who know nothing about marketing. If you buil

How does it work ? How does it find the environment ? Let say I have a project in `/home/boumtac/dev/myproject` with the venv inside. If I run `uv python find --script /home/boumtac/dev/myproject&#x2F

I'm not a native English speaker, but don't you use the ";" in English ? To me, it feels like it is the same purpose as the EM dashes. And I discovered the EM with ChatGPT, I've never seen it before.

Shopify is built using Ruby on Rails, they successfully handle enormous traffic spikes during Black Friday sales without issues. So I think we're good with performance.

Something I don't understand, Boeing 737 have been flying for years without no issue. Why since a few month are they a lot of problem with them ? Why did these problems not appear before ?

Did they provide the limit rate for free user ? Because I have the plus membership which is expensive (25$/month). But if the limit is high enough (or my usage low enough), there is no point for paying that much money for me.

I think it's because of two things. - The first one Chrome OS. - There's a noticeable trend where the general population is increasingly favoring smartphones over traditional computers for their digital needs. This shift has predo

Perhaps this might seem like a basic question, but why has it taken so long for processors to support AV1, given that it has been out for years?
