Agreed. Trivially observable by using a frontier model from today and one from 6 months ago with the same harness.

Seriously, if they’d done a huge splashy launch, we’d be reading one hackneyed comment after another about their fake hype or whatever.

if you shelled out $7-10k for a top-of-the-line system and paid attention to progress, you'd easily see that become the mid-tier $1000 option within two years or less This is not how I remember that period at all. Do you have any exa

I'm curious what tasks you think the median human could do as a remote co-worker that Fable or Astra could not do.

Yes! I think it’s really easy for us to take for granted the long list of incredible things we take for granted. Every time I hear someone lament how horrible the world is today, I wonder when they’d rather have been born. Especially as a r

Fuck Elon, but I must reluctantly agree that Grok 4.6 is pretty fucking good, especially for the price.

YMMV, I’m pretty AI-pilled in the sense that I think AI is one of the most pivotal things humanity will ever invent, and it’s going to radically change our civilization over the next few decades (not necessarily for the better!) But I would

Easy, have another agent check it. Yeah, I know, just more slop. But I do think the second agent’s eagerness to please is aligned more in your favor in that instance, so it’s likely to find most issues. The bigger problem I’ve found is that

I didn’t realize Mistral was owned by private equity.

It’s horrible, it deserves severe legal punishment, but “plague” to me implies a broad pattern.

Yeah, but that's different from what they're talking about. It looks like the code for comment timestamps has a bug where the human-readable version keys off the updated story timestamp or something?

I've been investing in real estate for decades now, and the version I've always heard is that you make your money when you buy, NOT when you sell. Also, other than flippers, the vast majority of real estate investors I'm fami

My solo SaaS just hit $400k ARR after about 15 months, and I've sold 99% of the customers via a sales call. So it can be done, but I have to say, it's pretty grueling. And my sales calls are basically a dream come true: ~50% of th

80% of the food we humans grow goes to feed animals, not humans. Do you have a source for this? Everything I can find shows less than half that.

I decided to respond in kind. I shouldn’t have.

I totally agree with your second paragraph. I don’t know enough about macroeconomics in the global sense to say about the first one though. My sense is that we’ve gotten much richer, more innovative, more technologically advanced, etc as a

Are you saying we’ve been in a decline for the last fifty years? If so, I would agree, but for fairly narrow definitions of “we”. Globally, the median human is wildly better off than 50 years ago. Even in the US, I see your point for stra

Can you say more about this? The first link below [1] says there are an estimated eight million species today, and the second link [2] says the number of known extinct species since 1500 is 905. 1. https://naturalhistory.si.edu&#

Imagine being so angry about LLMs that you feel the need to come on here and insult people. Seems so small and insecure.

MCP was a bucket of Not Invented Here nonsense, that ignored years of protocol design. It was incredibly jank and hard to run at any scale, for years and years. Not that I disagree with your overall point, but MCP was initially released i
