Went from training AI to people hooking AI up to it. Slop as a service.

Surrendering our strategic decision making to AI is definitely how we speedrun to Skynet.

Beautiful work! What prompted you to build this? Pun not intended.

All the negative comments here are really missing the point. At 17, you should be building your foundation. Kids that can make a custom CPU, or retrofit an old car with an electric motor, or screw around with nuclear energy... these are kid

Did they change the default perhaps? I didn't touch anything with thinking level in that time.

The other thing I forgot to mention about Opus 5 is that at least out of the gate, it seemed very intent on spinning up agents and obliterating my token budget. It was noticeably more token hungry than 4.8. It would make sense for them to i

Yeah this is a fair point. I only go to it when I have some big architectural problem I want its help in working out. Or a super nasty bug.

They've put themselves in a corner. Fable was too good and they gave it away with the $20 plan. It had to be a big step from Opus 4.8 to show progress, and Opus 4.8 is GREAT at coding in many different domains. But they're getting

No, but unless the penalties are specifically targeted at Zuck, it's a miss.

Let’s be clear: Meta is Zuckerberg.

TUIs are by definition keyboard first. TUIs are a creative constraint. TUIs are an invitation for programmers. TUIs are doing "less" to render. TUIs don't need to be "responsive". Hello World is TUI.

This is like letting someone stay in your house for free while charging them to burn it down.

This is the kind of study that knows its audience - employees who want to keep remote working. The headline is self congratulatory.

If it were only the CEOs that were at fault you might have a point. Hundreds of thousands if not millions of Americans benefit from this system and the leaders are accountable to them - the shareholders, employees, and on down the chain. Co

This is true and I have seen it in many cases.

There are a lot of people making a lot of money on the inefficiencies of the US system. They won’t give up their revenue streams without a fight, and they are filthy rich on the backs of sick people. You better believe they will play dirty.

Meta seems like the one American bigtech that would distill the the other American frontier models. My enemy’s enemy is my friend?

Killing and restarting the app unbreaks this. Maybe someone from the team could, you know, fix that?

Good. If they would have succeeded then it would have choked out anyone charging actual money for games. Developers would have been even more compromised than they are now.

another way to describe this is we as the user should get to limit tokens per prompt in a way that prevents these kinds of runaway solutions. It’s like if you asked your Lead Engineer to reduce build times and didn’t give him any budget res

This is a good example of where it’s important to be more up front about the role of AI in the making of a thing. Making a language that compiles through LLVM is no small task and takes a lot of expertise. Most of the time people do it beca

Granted, I have a perspective of a game dev, but this kind of repo defiling just gives me the willies. IMO instead of finding a common ancestor and altering it, just make the desired change upstream and merge it to where it’s needed. If you

My wife is a behavior analyst and I’m a game developer. We both watch people and try to figure out how why they are doing stuff and how to get them to do what we want. One thing I learned from her is that if you want someone to stop doing s

Composer 2 is actually good. I don’t mind when I run out of tokens on the mainstream models.

There was and still is a very nice competitor in this space called PlasticSCM. They were bought by Unity a few years ago. Unity has not been a good steward. They should have done what Epic is doing and open sourced it. But instead they chos
