Great, now you experience context bloat 3x as quickly and any task takes 3x as long. Ifz Google wants to structurally compete with Anthropic on coding, this issue is a must-fix. OpenAI finally fixed it with 5.5.

Yes. Huge difference in quality in from-weights distilled knowledge vs something based on a search tool. If the LLM uses a search tool there's barely a difference between a 30B model and Opus or GPT 5.5, because it just bases its reply

Such cities still exist and have been in such a state for decades. They can change but that's meaningless as they can also change the other way around.

From what I'm reading, non-users weren't and couldn't have actually been denied entry. It wouldn't have held up in court either. They could be made to quarantine.

It's crazy that you're so insulated inside your own bubble and close-minded not to realize that the degree to which smartphones are required in daily life differ massively across countries, and HN is a global place. The places whe

I refuse to believe that's true. That they were denying Dorothy (92) from going through customs because she couldn't use an app. That's an extraordinary claim. If they weren't denying Dorothy, that means you did not need

They said they don't use a phone. You can do online check-in on any device with a browser. I'm sure you can point to a single airline that only offers it through a native mobile app but that'd be an extreme exception.

The people calling those draconian had always been very naive - and 99% of them American, as such incentivized to take that stance. It was the right thing to do since day 1 and the people with more of a long-term vision outside the US have

The US won't want to do that because China will have an alternative ready within a day and every China-friendly country will migrate to it. Now US leadership is demented, luckily they've never heard of IPs and I really don't

Huh? They buy the data themselves from data brokers, no need to go through a middleman.

Ah so you use it because the STT you can run on your computer are a lot better than what you can run on your phone? I use on-device STT with Claude Code's built-in remote control feature to do what you do without needing claude -p, but

I confirmed that it was a pure geo-based block before writing the comment. It stayed in place even on mobile internet vs. residential, across devices and browsers.

Out of curiosity, why do you use `claude -p` for that over remote control? I use that for similar work.

Then they go bust, and competitors who priced this in and have a better financing model end up the winners who take the market. Thought that was the free market capitalism that the US prided itself on?

No, it's not. The biggest foreign actors driving far right nationalism are people like Rupert Murdoch, Andrew Tate and going forwards potentially Jeff Bezos. Murdoch has been the single biggest driver for decades. If they would truly b
