Despite the years-long moaning on HN about AWS US East being a single point of failure, we've sold our souls to yet another unstable monolith.

LLMs make it gloriously simple to fork and patch and existing repo. If you run into a merge conflict down the line, its a snap to fix too. Just make the changes you want to your favorite harness and move on.

This is a "they have guns so we need guns" scenario. You can't guarantee everyone else will use a neutered model.

Just like with people you need to tweak your approach when switch models--especially with a major version bump. 4.8 was the intern who lacked confidence who requires clarification. 5 is the know it all intern who fills in your spec. As such

That should have been the announcement. The article posted buries the lead. Cloudflare OS reads like almost any other AI knowledge base until midway when apps are introduced and then becomes overly technical with a code snippet.

I have used PWAs and online web apps for a lot of my vibe coded tools, but sometimes you just want/need native features and performance.

This is such a romantic idea, but unfortunately Apple and Google are hostile to this model. Of the two, iOS is /worst/ for running vibe coded apps. You need to pay $99 a year to be an Apple developer if you want your app to live o

Holy hell--you can rent a 32GB M5 MacBook Air for $33 a month. You can stick that in your closet for one hell of an agent playground. A standard $33 server has trash specs by comparison.

A friend recently showed off a security scan Kimi did that Claude refused. I noticed the writing sounded uncannily like Claude. I decided to chat with it to see if the distillation claims had any merit. So I messaged Kimi on Fireworks with

Unless Apple figures out AI software execution and opens up their walled garden a bit, their hardware edge won't matter. In 2020 I could write audio apps that worked incredibly well on a Pixel: despite LLMs! I still can get Siri to put

Yes. You need ZDR at the account level first. Contact your AWS rep. I have done this a few times for customer deployments.

You can be stupefied and also pessimistic. More practically, society should be reimagined around AI. You're comment presumes an outcome that will be politically determined: you can still fight for the world you want.

This is actually simpler to implement. You can have a AGENTS.md describing who is boot at what and then you have the agents converse over tmux.

From the article, it looks like ads are separate from answers in a clearly delineated way. It's not quite as nefarious as what you're suggesting. Frankly, I'm surprised. This is only round one however, and I could see a futur

It's the exact same playbook Silicon Valley uses. Subsizide, lose piles of money, capture market share, recoup investment. They've done this in other industries like solar panels, chips, and EVs. This is no different.
