They’re afraid their customers will switch model provider in the future, so instead they made them switch now.

It’s still important to point out when the „reasonable right” take on it is that it’s just Trump being Trump.

There’s plenty of understanding we need to get in order to learn to steer the agents precisely, rather than, as you put it, mess around until it works. Some people are actively working on it, while others make a point of looking the other w

Apple doesn't ever need to make much money on this software, when they make money on hardware needed to use it.

It’s kind of funny that apparently most of work that’s left after you automated software development is summarizing meetings and building slide decks.

As of yesterday OpenAI seems to explicitly allow opencode on their subscription plans.

Multiple instances of agents are an equivalent to tabs in other applications - primarily holders of state, rather than means for extreme parallelism.

Have you posted the right link? It seems to be a 2009-2012 collection, when the question was about the 90s.

In what sense? I have a Switch 2 without NSO and it does not allow online play. It also, in the default configuration, needs to authenticate before even entering the online shop. In that scope, it doesn’t even need to have any parental cont

I buy cassettes. Mostly old, period-correct ones, but some new. I also have a fairly high end tape deck, that these days can be had for rather good price. Our perception of cassettes are mostly warped by the experience of badly recorded tap

There’s also a very real utility to non-streaming media. It turns out that a system that lets you listen to anything is terrible for actually building a collection. Your „library” fills up with tons of stuff you „liked” at some point and sa

How so? A human needs the entire civilisation to be productive at that level. If you take a just the entire US electricity consumption and divide it by its population, you'll get a result that's an order of magnitude higher. And t

Still, I don’t think you can have a normal human experience devoting a significant portion of your life to work and a coffin. It seems like any low paying job that lets them get back home every evening would be better than this.

> AI is this new (but really old) idea that shallowness is sufficient. That’s not the whole story and certainly not the core concern, which is more about developers who already have deep experience, using AI to multiply their output.

There’s no consensus on whether AI-assisted coding is a revolution or smoke and mirrors. However, if it turns out to be truly revolutionary, do you think there’s anyone better than you to do the prompting? Could your boss do the work you do

You get to decide which car you buy every X years. When the time comes, you pick one of the brands from the group you consider notable. Established brands do a lot of things to stay within that group. This one worked - we talk about it.

It seems unintuitive today because people living in cities and towns don’t usually see sunrises and sunsets from where they live. If you had a way to easily reference the sunrise and sunset points against known horizon, it’d be very easy to

That’s most definitely not the same thing, as „improving a codebase” is an open ended task with no reliable metrics the agent could work against.

The author did mention though that they were unable to log out of iCloud, as that requires to be logged in to iCloud. That would prevent reuse of the device with a different account.

I'm not saying bugs aren't a problem. I'm saying that if an emerging, fast improving tech is only slightly behind a human coder now, it seems conceivable that we're not that far off when they reach parity.

1.7x does not look that bad? If "AI code" is a broad classification that includes people using bad tools, or not being very skilful operators of said tools, then we can expect this number to meaningfully improve over time.

I think a lot of parenting decisions like this are just made in line with the rest of the society. If you let your 9 year old roam the park by themselves, you run a rather small risk of injuries, death, kidnapping etc. But you run a pretty

That’s super visible in young children. If you teach one to ride a bike, you don’t actually see much progress within a span of a single session. The progress is there the next day.
