I mean, this is just basic smart investing today. Software is now very easily replicable, and you wouldn't want to invest in software that has absolutely no moat. At a minimum, this gives Bain more leverage when negotiating with these

Exactly right, it's Porter's Five Forces with Threats of Substitutes and Threats of New Entrants, which means that margins will be compressed massively, which means that being a lawyer will often mean lower wages. The p99() of law

I just did the same. Absolutely awful. I assume OpenCode's heavy context is a problem, and it's probably better to use Liquid's own OpenCode alternative for this.

ha, exactly... like, the % change could be minuscule (or worse, it might only be a perceived difference, the actual quality may have regressed, or the scenario just didn't lend itself to that specific model) but people will be on here

Right, and it’s just the wrong, maybe weirdest correlation to suggest, and I’m someone that loves to find unexpected connections between things. ZIRP had nothing to do with this “no-man” phenomenon, it predated ZIRP.

And in the agentic world, that liability is both minimized and amplified. Teams that successfully mitigate AI risks will be able to churn out massive amounts of sustainable code.

Bruh. This is unhinged. SpaceX is a good company with a ton of potential future revenue on their data center and Starlink businesses. Nothing about this company is fugazzi.

And adding climate hysteria here diminishes the climate change argument generally. It's like "the boy who cried wolf".

Irrelevant if you can keep doing decapitation strikes on leadership.

lol no, they both have lost substantial influence in Iran... the US has been chipping away at the spheres of influence for both China and Russia in recent months, first with Venezuela and now Iran. Hopefully Cuba is next. And the US surveil

You arguably can't run gorilla large-scale manufacturing. There are obvious limits to what you can achieve when the opposition can run decapitation strikes every few months.

Exactly, but Hacker News is upvoting this because it wants the US to be seen as the loser of this conflict. Both sides in a conflict (or any negotiation) make demands that they know the other will not accept. You can't just take someon

But we can eliminate 90% of senior leadership at any time. How do they measure that cost?

by peder 6mo ago
This is not the deal. Iran had published this earlier as their list of demands, just like the US did. The reality is something in the middle of that.

But tech debt with vibe coding is fixed by just throwing more magic at it. The cost of tech debt has never been lower.

Have you been using `omlx serve`? If so, how are you bumping up the max context size? I'm not seeing a param to go above 32k?

Did you have any Anthropic vs OpenAI specification issues with Claude Code? I have been using mlx_vlm and vMLX and I get 400 Bad Request errors from Claude Code. Presumably you're not seeing those issues with llama-server ?

And despite saying that they're the party of YIMBY, in practice we can clearly see that Democrats simply aren't. They'll say that they allowed ADUs, but then Dallas will come along and build 10,000 homes in the time it took S

Right, it's not an inherently left vs right thing. Today NIMBYism has been largely a left-wing phenomenon, with really high end housing developments that are politically untouchable by housing projects. The answer is always the same

Housing prices cratered in China, because, yes, eventually supply catches up and then the ponzi schema has nowhere to go but down. Lots of people hold real estate thinking it's an investment just by itself, so it's been a viciou
