Layers of reading internal docs to synthesize new docs to turn into slides to aggregate into docs, where a different set of people only partially read or understand what they're seeing at any given mutation cycle...... it's all a

I mean n=1 but I starred, pulled, messed with using and extending it for a week, then dumped it and went back to my DIYclaw because it seems to spend fewer tokens and get more consistent results. None of these projects are very good, but in

Speaking of "capturing the scene and display it under the pause menu".... acerola on YouTube has an excellent 23 minute frame rendering analysis video about what goes into drawing just the "pause menu" in Persona 3 Reloa

Their Q10 Max has hit an amazing sweet spot for me. Being able to keep DIYing on that base is like Xmas, this is awesome.

"Their viewers" minus me and mine Others are welcome to look past it. I've unsubbed from a lot of shite on clear signals that they'll say anything and stand for nothing. Ad reads are an incredibly easy, bright line for i

This is why I greatly prefer podcasts where the hosts read the ads. If you're going to take ad money, you better be willing to sell it with your own voice. All else is a descent into scam ad hell.

Is the difference between signing up for subscription billing vs api billing really a moat

It was always rough, but this is by far the worst I've ever seen or heard. The thrash and org maneuvering are feral.

They're going to have a fast and ruthless testing of whether their product senses and abilities to attract and trap customers were actually skill or lucky positioning, as competition explodes from every direction, including from within

The marginal differences in quality seem pretty meaningful right now, enough to make Claude wildly dominant, but some of the locally runnable models like Qwen feel only a few months behind the leaders. I'm betting the generational gain

Proactively shielding themselves from the eventual, justified, realization that spiking a population's price of water and electricity such that they cannot use them IS an externality just as bad as polluting the water supply.

I'm always astounded by the tendency to bet it all on core competencies and wind down every other effort that's profitable but not profitable _enough _ As if times don't change, innovation never happens, and your accessory p

Very cool! For all its faults, seeing control and value change flows through execution is one of the things I really liked about Unreal's Blueprint viz scripting system. This looks like a better take on that. And for huge git repos I a

I don't really think management is good or bad, just different, and not really for me. The management career ladder though I do feel goes higher in large organizations than small. For myself it is the hands-on work I find most fulfilli

N=1 but I do love constantly learning new things, and building small, purposeful, tailored products with small groups of people. I've gone back and forth across the lead and management lines many times now, and it is career limiting in
