   I can type pretty fast, so this seems like it would slow me down. Also, everyone in the office would get annoyed pretty quickly.

   I was interested but then just immediately wrote it off because of the AI-centric marketing. Why anything AI make me want to buy a whole laptop? I can use AI from websites, apps, etc. already.

   My point was, if you still want to know how to code you can, without having to lose all your customers.

   Why no love for OVH? I find Hetzner's UI to be super-confusing, making it hard to manage things.

   We still know how to ride horses but we also drive cars, now. You want to be delivery service that takes 2 days instead of 30 minutes to bring you pizza so that you don't forget how to ride your horse..?

   OK, so we'll have to deal with this for a good while

   How long before they will raise the amount of context it can hold? Or, it there a ceiling that we can't go passed?

    If I remember correctly, Microsoft allegedly did that for the very selfish reason of looking better in terms of being a monopoly.

    Looks awesome, but any developer laptop should have an inverted-T layout for arrows. Those might look cool, but they're a huge pain to use.

    I used to like Vultr because it was a cheaper Digital Ocean, still with a great-looking UI (if not better). Now, prices are so bad that I have to choose between a bare metal server with 500 GB of SSD storage, 16-core CPU and 16 GB of RAM wi

    I would say following instructions. If Claude understood what you mean better without you having to over explain it would be an improvement

    I'm using Claude Code with the latest version of Sonnet, using the official VS Code extension. At my company they set it up that way.

    Every time I read these titles, I wonder if people are for some reason pushing the narrative that Claude is way smarter than it really is, or if I'm using it wrong. They want me to code AI-first, and the amount of hallucinations and we

    Nice try, Nadella!

    I once saw Vultr as a cheaper DigitalOcean, but now they're super-expensive, too. For the same money, I get 10x of RAM, storage and CPU with Hetzner or OVH. They also have the extremely annoying practice where if you owe them as little

    OK, Tim Cook, nice try but it looks awful.

    Sure, so influencing politics with money should be outlawed (or perhaps it is already..?). Why not. That's not the type of conversations I hear, though (including from you). People always seem to focus on punishing people that are more

    No, there shouldn't be a limit. If there's a limit it means that somebody needs to decide what limit that is, and steal whatever is over the limit by force. I'm for freedom. Should he be able to won every single media corpora

    You are. Who should decide what's proportional, though? Should there be a committee that says, Bezos is capped at X billions, and any money he makes after that gets confiscated?

    Sure, all entrepreneurs risk it all. They quit their job to pursue something that can fail and make them bankrupt. Was he lucky? He had an intuition that books could be sold on the internet because you don't need to test them out befor

    Same here. I don't get the outrage. Our system needs incentives to get people to do great work. If you do one-of-a-kind work, shouldn't you get rewarded proportionally? There is 1 Amazon. It's not easy to create Amazon from s

    Sure, but the website focuses on material wealth.
