If you want a controllable and predictable system, host it yourself. APIs will always have outages, delays and breaking changes every so often. That's the price you pay for not doing it properly and outsourcing your job.

Azure was arguably as garbage four years ago as it is today, the only thing that's changed in the past few years is MS mandated vibe coding, and suddenly Github has an outage every week? A ridiculous coincidence if it's not causal

Encyclopaedias, damn I've forgotten that used to be a thing. I think I still have a few somewhere that were used maybe once or twice. Now that was something internet search engines really made obsolete almost overnight. Come to think o

They've tried, and then seen the drop it results in on poorly designed benchmarks where confidently bullshitting gets you ahead of the rest, and said no thanks. As long as we compare models in ways that rewards it, nothing will change.

They really needn't have specified "in a weekend" cause yeah we can tell. Since when has low effort become a selling point anyhow?

That would be the case if our memory wouldn't be completely fluid and built on subjective perceptions. The two sort of merge together over time, you come to see what you expect. It's only when something really out there breaches t

I don't think it is, I'm also the latter and happened to assume the opposite. The article was exactly what I expected from the title. I mean, turning a server rack into a phone just isn't something that makes any sense, so it

I don't think it's that bad yet, but it's certainly on its way there. We're like at this intersection of lots of conditions that previously weren't documented becoming actual diagnoses, that pulling along a lot of p

I think the vacuum hoses are actually for the brake booster and why you don't have any regular brakes if your engine dies. But yes, smaller engine + turbo or twin turbo is definitely more complex than a simple big block. There's a

Yeah, tell me about it. Anything else feels like what going to a local coding model used to feel like. Granted it still fucked up on occasion, but like maybe twice a week, not literally every other turn.

Eh it's better than 4.8 in terms of what it can get done on a good day, it's just far more taxing to get it there. Like the Fable ban stunt, I wouldn't put it pass Anthropic to kneecap Opus deliberately to drive more people t

I'd certainly rank it at the very top of the want to kill yourself when using it benchmark. It outperforms everything else on that leaderboard. With weaker models you can sort of understand, they're trying their best and failing,

Personally, I always found those newspaper columns hard to read, you constantly have to jump back and forth and they break them into so many pieces you have to actively search along the page to see where the damn thing continues.

From what I've ridden in the newer models it seems like internal cabin space remains the same or is genuinely getting smaller, but crumple zones keep increasing in size. There has to be some kind of ever increasing safety bar that keep
