   Running that full load is at least 600 W, so in a day ~14 kWh. At $0.2 a kWH, that would be $2.80/day or $1k a year of op-ex in electricity. Unless you really want privacy or the fuzzy feeling of owning your own, it’s cheaper, more con

   Nice UI to compare different assets quickly. It would be even more useful if it showed percentage change rather than $ change.

   I see it as a prioritization exercise. I know the above is a trivial example, but more generally, does the guy who wrote Datasette and Django want to wrangle front end and css, or do they want to work on something else?

   Currently running an experiment where I'm using Fable as a planner/orchestrator/verifier and using Mimo 2.5 as subagents/builders. Seems to be doing well with my old specs.

   I’ve been using Claude Design for my front ends. The output looks and feels good enough, but the designs often look very similar and generally adhere to contemporary web tropes. Keen to hear if anyone has had unconventional creative adventu

    Using Azure, AWS and Oracle's free tier has been a pain in the past. I found a cheap VPS on lowendbox and it's been running well for the past 6 months (6 core, 8GB ram, 256 nvme, unmetered traffic for $80/year).

    I work at a bigtech and we’re being measured on how many tokens we consume. We know it’s totally stupid, but unfortunately tokenmaxxing is real. I know our management line isn’t that dumb, but this is what you get when the business is selli

    Hey Meta folks, remember that time when Facebook: - harvested user data which helped a company manipulate a US election and the Brexit outcome? - played a role in spreading hate speech, which was used to support a genocide in Myanmar? - har

    I wish DeepSeek were a drop-in replacement, but it's not. It performs amazingly well but it's not as autonomous and needs a lot more nudges compared to Opus4.6/7 or GPT 5.5. It's good enough for a lot of things (text ext

    Have you tried telling it to pause to let you think? I often use it while I’m walking and tell it to not respond until I initiate a conversation.

    I would have considered a Leaf but they have NMC batteries. Also, the earlier versions had terrible battery cooling issues. Give me a Leaf with an LFP and I would buy one.

    ~25% of Apple's revenue came from services in FY25 (and 50% from iPhone, ~25% from other hardware). They made $415B in that year, so ~$100B from services alone!
