Yeah, I particularly like London’s implementation (I moved away just short of a decade ago - might have changed since) where if you just use the same card you don’t need a pass because there are daily/weekly/monthly maximums and y

That also happens with Clipper Card in the Bay Area. Happened to me a couple of weeks ago on BART. I wonder if all transit cards need to be loaded with money when used on iPhone. I remember having a Clipper Card with autoload and that would

Personally, I just can’t find it in me to be that self-interested. It’s how other people oppose buildings near them because it blocks their view. I really don’t want to stop other people from writing software. If they want to use AI to do

My experience has been that responsiveness is value. For tasks where you need steering, responsiveness allows for better steering. For tasks which you want unattended, better models are just better. There are still tasks that even Fable is

It seems to be a self-instruction. Leak from reasoning token into output token or using output token for reasoning. Perhaps something accidental like constraining number of reasoning tokens leads to model using output tokens for reasoning o

The GPTs are just as good and I can trust many tasks to open models. Autonomous coding is best with frontier class models but steered coding is fine with even DeepSeek V4 Flash.

I think it's pretty fun. Worker cooperatives no longer need different ranks of executive officers. They can all be peers with different functions. So if worker cooperatives are going to succeed in the US, they have pretty good conditio

I’ve never had any trouble going to Taiwan. One of the easier places to go as an Indian who lives here in the US since you have an online form and you get 6 visits of 14 days each and you can do that while you wait for your visa application

Everything is determined by cloudflare. If they supported Gemini on the same hostname I’d serve it everywhere. If they supported text/plain and text/html everywhere I’d serve that. But they don’t cache per content encoding so I ju

ATProto attempted to do this with their PDS based structure but it isn’t fully decentralized yet. The vision is similar to what you describe though.

Yeah, but they tried to change Adjustment of Status too. https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/news-releases/us-citizenship-... I don't think the practice of the change is significant. Reddit has numerous stories of

Yeah, this is a pretty big risk. I'm similarly married to an American and we have an American child. Other country seems to have screwed the family, though. Mine (India) offers a fairly indefinite visa called an Overseas Citizen of Ind

Everything is "chronically underfunded". There has never been a thing in the world that was "well funded" because people's objectives increase with the amount of money they have. No one has ever said "Wikipedia

The governments go where the people are. If they post on their own sites it’s the equivalent of “on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard’”. But go

This is going to sound incredibly silly but I have every HTMX component expose an AI summary with actions possible and then I have a small copy to AI button on the page which creates a new short-lived access token and copies into a prompt t

In an odd coincidence, Jolene by Dolly Parton played on YouTube Music as I drove home with my daughter. When we got home, my wife told me Dolly Parton had died. I don't listen to much of her though I'm fond of this song, and we ge

It would be pretty neat to actually have the thing funded through a revenue neutral ticketing scheme. i.e. you just auction off tickets for 4 week blocks. That will allow people who are time-sensitive to appropriately select, and if you mak

No way, it's only like 4x64 GB of ECC DDR5 5600 RDIMMs. Who's paying $100k for that? I'll gladly sell them this at a 10% discount.
