   I'll give it a go. Stripe wants to take a cut of as many transactions as possible. Think Visa. The more, the better. They clearly see AI token usage as a new commodity and something that will grow and grow for a long time to come. They

   Same here. I'm switching to the Codex plan. It just doesn't go very far now. Especially if you use fable at all.

   As a _paying_ customer, I disagree.

   Putting on my tin-foil hat here. I suspect we'll see major RAM shortages well into the 2030s to stop the commoners from having enough RAM to run powerful local models.

   I've seen this several times now. Disturbing. IMO, LLMs will be a dead end to anything close to AGI because of this and hallucinations. We're missing something in the mix, which I suspect is some kind of advanced JEPA model.

   I've long theorized that if a hot war with China happened, the US would get beaten up very badly, at first. Likely burning through stockpiles of weapons (obvious now), plus not do well against modern drone warfare and a China that can

   I've been using DeepSeek flash a lot this week to try it out. Now, I deeply want the smart frontier models to be just as fast.

    Yup, this pisses me off so much. I now just go to the web app instead of using this broken app.

    Yep, there is basic analytics with Plausible. I'd like to know if someone uses the tools I build. I don't see or want anything you type into them. The favicon now has a cache header, thanks.

    My first paid software gig was making a famous person's MySpace page. I got my first software job because of this. So I have a real soft spot for MySpace. I made a fun thing this week for nostalgia: https://allthedamn.tools&

    Same here and my codex plan. I have to wait until next week to get back to work.

    I, too, have come to this realization. But boy, oh boy, do Europeans get disgusted by the idea. (My partner is European)

    This is going to sound crazy, but I kind of wish they went back to paid accounts. This would stop a lot of this.

    I strongly disagree. It's gone to shit and paying people for attention is killing the platform. It's endless ragebait and nonsense now.

    I think this is a good way to vent. I've done that a few times. Typed up a long, angry rant. Only to delete it. Just make sure this is on your computer and not in a Slack DM or draft email. Don't want to accidentally hit send.

    Yup, I call it a cartoonish view of the world. I think so many in power now, including lots of people in tech, have bonkers, cartoonish views of the world that just don't map to the reality and complexities of the 21st century. Scary s

    Yes, and the sleep tracking that adds or subtracts. While not super accurate, it's good enough for me.

    I was up in the air flying that day. It didn't seem busy at all. Everything was on time, quick, and smooth on both sides. My partner and I commented on how smooth everything went.

    I'll offer another antidote. Every single place I have ever worked at that had such retreats had a big layoff within ~6 months. It's like the CEO or execs see there are a lot of problems and think this will magically fix all the &

    Sadly, not a new phenomenon. It does seem to have gotten a lot worse. One time, way back in ~2012, I did an all-day onsite interview with several people, lunch with the team, and everything. A full 8-hour gauntlet, and they ghosted me after

    Funny you say this. I _almost_ tried this. But it did feel like a person was doing some copy-and-pasting and watching closely, so it wasn't 100% automated.

    Can confirm. I just had a nightmare experience with a company where the customer service sent very ChatGPT-like replies and seemed very unreasonable and AI like. I had to threaten legal action to get my money back. Bizarre experience.
