I don't understand these comments. The two models are in completely different price tiers. Astra costs 5 times as much. It seems like all you can judge about cars would be their maximum speed on an oval.

I can understand you disliking an OS or vendor after getting used to another one, but there's no 911-Aztec comparison that makes sense here. You're confusing a personal preference for a fact.

I goddamn hate this constant bombardment on medias of this "They say it is to protect the kids". I was talking with my 60+ and 80+ family and they were like "yes, this is bad, but it's needed to fight pedos or terrorists

Here in Bielsko Biala (southern Poland) I see the same in few pubs, never seen on menus though. Shops seem to be creating lots of marketing images as well with AI and it just looks...off. In any case doesn't make me want to enter the p

Kinda tired of all this warmongering and constant increasing of pressure on civil society. It does not help that we keep electing extremely selfish strong appearing individuals in winner-takes-all democracies.

I'm sure real estate is the primary business model of McDonald's but franchisees wouldn't be paying the rent and fees if the restaurant model itself wasn't very profitable. Most restaurants in Europe generate an average

McDonald's is invested in franchisee's success, it wouldn't be a great business otherwise.

Enterprise is eventually get caught (if it isn't already) by the Microsoft/Google. Because with office/teams/suite they were already in every enterprise, and that just added a new tool to existing offerings. Provisioning

Okay but...closed source harnesses change multiple times per week, sometimes per day. And they also tune the inference of the models behind it. You're using different tooling every day. Hard to benchmark.

That's because Opus 4.6 was the last good assistant model. Everything after it might be more "intelligent" but is super tuned around end-to-end task (and related benchmarks), not to act as an assistant. Now it's *you* be

In one sense you're right. In another one, Opus 4.6 level already solved 90% of my work-day tasks, so while better models have been instrumental into handling a higher % that does not mean that defaulting on cheaper models can't b
