For someone paying nothing for something that costs nothing, you have way more than nothing to complain about. Not appropriate.

I suspect 1M token context is questionable value because of the secondary effect of burning quota vs getting work done. I think the model select that let me choose 1M made sense because I could decide if I was working on large documents and

Exactly. A safe bet vs a great bet.

Moore's Law. We've had RAM shocks before. We nerds can't control the Wall Street or Virginians who like to break the world every so often for the lulz. However, a wobble on the curve doesn't change the curve's desti

I think the mountain of things I don’t understand was already huge. It doesn’t stop me from getting a grip over the things I need to be responsible for and using tools to contain complexity irrelevant to me. Like many scientists have a stat

I am really enjoying this renaissance in CLI world applications. There's so much possible. I'm working on a related challenge which is mounting a virtual filesystem with FUSE that mirrors my Mac's actual filesystem (over a su

It doesn't force you go through risk modelling because by now most SOC2 platforms have templates you just fill in the blanks and sign off. Conversely, the auditors are paid by the company, so their incentive is to pass the audit so the

I am! I’ll reach out in another channel to connect.

It’s not surprising. There has been quite a bit of industrial research in how to manage mere apes to be deterministic with huge software control systems, and they are an unruly bunch I assure you.

You’re just a bag of meat. That is why it’s just math is an unsatisfying argument. It’s not even an interesting question. Sentience has no definition. It’s meaningless. People have needs that are being met. That is something we can meaningf

Technodeterminism is a common feeling in paradigm shifting moments. Don’t forget who is at the helm of the change.

It’s called a library. It’s free. Plus you get to say microfiche which is fun. :)

It’s not insane. They are correct that is the point of civilization which carries information from generation to generation outside the oral tradition in a systematic organized reliable way.

Dubious. Ai psychosis is the opposite. It’s about being empowered to explore ideas much further but with a maladaptive tool designed to be an appeaser by reinforcement learning.

You’re assuming most people using Claude code are senior engineers.

The fund is called customers. The independent regulator is called the AICPA. It really comes down to who is paying attention SOC2 is as useful as a privacy policy at protecting your data. It’s all humans following human incentives.

It’s 2026. Reading is not the problem any more. Culling obsolence is the problem.

My laws of existence: Business. If the customer can’t feel it it doesn’t exist. Ops. If it isn’t automated it doesn’t exist. Product. If it isn’t documented it doesn’t exist. Engineering. If it isn’t in code it doesn’t exist. You have an op

The only should is you should succeed in making the change wanted or needed by your customer or stakeholders or yourself. How you do it is a capital problem. Cheaper faster better is preferred. Imagine saying the 30% rule is you must eat in

Tomato tomato. It’s sufficiently cybernetic. We can treat it therefore as something with agency.

There is a mind; the model + text + tool inputs is the full entity that can remember, take in sensory information, set objectives, decide, learn. The Observe, Orient, Decide, Act loop.

Consider: you don’t give a warrant to a wiretap subject. That itself is not that big a loophole. And therefore is unlikely to provoke change.

That came later than the beginning. Workhouses came before the loom. You can see this in the progression of quality of things like dinner plates over time. Making clay pottery can be simple. But to make “fine china” with increasingly sophis
