Was it ever open source if there was an implied refusal to create something you don't approve of? Was it only for certain kinds of software, certain kinds of creators? If there was some kind of implicit approval process or consent requ

It's fantastic. I had it navigate a complex ATS and prepare a hiring website (for humans, no less!) and drop in all the JDs, configure hiring settings, etc. It saved me hours of time.

Poor Tim! Hey anyone know if I'm allowed to put my own skin store inside the Fortnite store? It's only fair.

I’d agree with you until Opus 4.5.

I think painting an entire nation, whether it’s China or the United States, is a far greater evil. That’s the same sort of language being used against Palestinians right now.

I think you're missing the point.

This is really poor execution. You're taking a complex, low margin vehicle and introducing even more cost and supply chain complexity. On top of that, you're essentially making a proxy bet that more expensive hardware (LIDAR) will

You’re exactly wrong. In the race to supply AI data center, there is no “consumer” (in the sense I think you mean) making or influencing a buying decision. Without a clear path to increase supply, why take $1 when you can have $6 or $7?

Even less consumer supply means higher prices. What’s fascinating is the very thing that enabled AI — gaming - may be one of the early casualties as it gains in priority.

Whatever you think about AI, it is a good that Anthropic go public and I argue it’s consistent with their mission. It’s better for the public to have a way to own a piece of the company. In an interview Sam Altman said he preferred to stay

This is exactly my experience. And it's funny -- this crowd is so skeptical of OpenAI... so they prefer _Google_ to not be evil? It's funny how heroes and villains are being re-cast.

A hardware device from OpenAI is exactly why I would prefer it over Anthropic or Google. Why give up on differentiation? I would assume the model team is separate from the consumer hardware team.

Congrats. This is the first time I remember reading a genuine, authentic story about a sale. Much preferred over “this is about continuing the mission until my earn-out is complete.”

Oh believe me. I owned it. It felt slow even at the time.

One of my early Macs was a Performa 638CD with no dedicated FPU. I had upgraded to a Performa 6400 (which felt like an absolute dog despite its size) but finally had an opportunity to move to the PowerComputing PowerTower Pro 225. What a be

This post is gross and makes me think a lot less of Zig. Calling people losers and monkeys is unprofessional and unnecessary.

He also suggested the "revenue opportunities" would reveal themselves later, given enough investment. I have the same plan if anyone is interested.

There's another scenario where someone heads to the hospital and get stuck at a red light or behind and accident or you're speeding and kill someone. It's just hard to know sometimes which path to pick when you don't hav

Same experience. I cannot consider any screen that does not have the nano texture coating. It is exceptional and a huge improvement. To the point that I actually prefer a tester Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra over Apple’s own iPhone display.

Amazing story. And if Anthropic is really in it for humanity and spreading good, they’ll productize this for all of us to drive efficiency! Or, more likely, they’ll just sell enterprise products to wealthy hospitals and look the other way.

I couldn’t agree more. I get all my perfectly deterministic work output from human beings!

Mac is great hardware to be sure. I have to say though, I much prefer an S25 Ultra with Samsung's version of "nanotexture" — even with iPhone 17's improved (?) anti-reflective screen. I've been very patient with iOS

Why are they paying 6.4% on processing fees? What is "movement support" and where is the travel to? Do they have to publicly disclose these disbursements anywhere? This seems sketchy at best.

I don't know, it sounds pretty compelling to me.

We’re moving almost entirely to Codex, first because often it’s just better, and second because it’s much cheaper. It’s a bet that they’re better now, but given capacity and funding, they’ll be better later too. The only edge Claude has is
