That’s what I thought too but didn’t want to make any assumptions. In that case it’s honestly stupid to not having income come in for two years because of a preference for a certain language. When I’m out of job - which has only happened f

I am curious - what does choosing only Rust have to do with religion? Or am I taking your statement to literally?

You have way more faith in the government not using any information it has against you than I do…. You have been paying attention to what’s going on haven’t you?

Right because that has worked so well with PCs over the last 40 years. Do you remember the people that had a dozen toolbars on their browser because if bundleware? Not to mention viruses and ransomware.

It’s a great analogy. Every design decision has tradeoffs. Given a choice between optimizing for 90% over 10% is a fair trade

And the alternative is to inconvenience people who don’t want to have to press a button every time they get into a car to pair BT.

by raw_anon_1111 6mo ago
And what would be the alternative that doesn’t have tradeoffs? Everytime you get into your car you have to press a button to manually pair your phone with it? Then another set of users would complain. The same with the EXIF data being share

And absolutely no one knows they are using Linux. Google had to hide all of the Unix underpinnings and do things like this to make it usable. As far as the BT car issue. I don’t have that issue. I turned off wireless CarPlay, don’t use B

Yes and no one who knows how to change an engine should drive a car. This is why geeks make horrible product people and after 30 years geeks are still waiting for “The Year of Linux on the Desktop”.

This is honestly a horrible argument. Any app on Android can still get EXIF data

Then don’t use an ad supported app? I have one as supported app on my phone - Overcast. The developer created their own ad platform and serves topic based ads based on the podcast you are listening to right now . Ironically enough I star

Yes and who needs Dropbox since for a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows

And you don’t see why Google would cater to Windows and a Mac users at the expense of Linux users?

Well Apple has had ad blocking extensions for over a decade and full extension support for a few years

Most people have no idea when they upload a “photo” they are also letting anyone know their “location”. On iOS at least, from the browser, you specifically choose whether you want to upload a file from the Files app (that lets you uplo

And most people don’t want their location shared with random websites.

by raw_anon_1111 6mo ago
Really? You don’t understand why people wouldn’t want to share their location with the government?

I’m not saying that there isn’t a reason to keep an eye on other products. I’m saying that every other product in the space has the same unit economics and will eventually need to charge enough to be profitable - and to continue training

So how do you know that the free tier hasn’t been reduced by 5x?

A quick bit of Googling shows that by the time cable got to be standardized with anything worthwhile in Brazil, ads came along with it. Before then it was mostly premium channels that also don’t and never had ads in the US.

For context, my company gives each developer a decent monthly allowance for Claude and if push comes to shove, we are allowed to fallback to using AWS Bedrock hosted Anthropic models. When you pay for a Claude subscription, what exactly w

by raw_anon_1111 6mo ago
All indications are that inference for API use is margin positive for Open AI and Anthropic not the subscription. It will basically cut the hobbyist out and entrench large corporations that can pay the real costs. If that happened and I was

I do consulting work with AWS + backend development and since agentic coding became a thing, I have started doing more internal admin websites - completely vibe coded. I never build/install/run websites or npm packages directly o

I have hit chatbot limits with the $20 a month plan. During the day I use it with Codex and I night I use it to study Spanish. I don’t know if the two are correlated. But then I just switch to another OpenAi and strangely enough, chat fo

Just put everyone on pay per use with the API and rip the band aid off.

Well since in my case all of the LLMs I use are hosted by AWS Bedrock, it means I can get away with only caring about AWS Access keys. If I need to store database passwords in secrets manager, I can just pass the ARN of the secret manager

The only private key that my agents have access to are temporary AWS access keys to a dev environment with decently locked down permissions. I let it troubleshoot my web code using a temporary JWT in a dev environment using headless chrom

40% of the US like things just the way they are - didn’t you get the memo? America is “Great Again” now.

So exactly when was that? Before 50 years ago, “Separate but Equal” was the law of the land as decided by the Supreme Court, laws against interracial marriage and laws against “sodomy” (homosexuality) were also upheld by the Supreme Court.
