I'd be fine with it if they can make Sonnet 4.5 unlimited. I haven't personally seen any major differences between 4.6 or any of the other newer models. Claude 4.5 seems to be the right balance and works great for me.

The cost doesn't really matter. The US led financial system (which is a glorified Ponzi scheme) is on an unsustainable path. The war in Iran is about resources (force Iran to use US dollars to trade oil, give US more leverage in dealin

Welcome to the club! My Adsense account was banned years ago with no explanation or anything. They even stole my balance. I've heard of similar horror stories of people losing years worth of email and other data with no recourse. As m

I'm always surprised to see how many CEOs walk away with millions while running their companies to the ground. The vast majority of the S&P 500 corps are mostly monopolies (Telecommunication, Airlines, Insurance...etc.) and for the

So-called smart money strikes again. Thernaos, Nikola, WeWork and now FTX (I'm sure I'm missing many and there are some other less obvious ones like Carvana and Opendoor). Billions and billions of dollars were funneled into these

Are they assembling or manufacturing? If you need to import all your raw materials then you're not really manufacturing anything and I seriously doubt that anyone in this country is willing to do the dirty bad breaking work for low wag

I guess this will just accelerate adoption of China's UnionPay or their homegrown MIR.

How were rental car companies able to sell 770k+ cars last year? Where did that demand come from and who bought those cars?

This is serious. I'm sure that this will have and is likely already having some serious impact on humans that we don't know much about despite what the studies claim.

Reminded me of the line from one of the MI movies. "CIA is like Halloween, a bunch of grown men in rubber masks playing trick or treat".

Greenwald is absolutely spot on here. Also, I didn't know about Rep. Barbara Lee before, what an incredibly smart lady.

Network effect is pretty strong and although these platforms can easily be replicated, it's just not easy to get masses to adopt a new platform. I'm afraid that just like the traditional news media this could lead to a society whe

not just "don't have to" but I'd say that they have a responsibility to make sure that their platforms aren't used to incite violence against anyone but there are better ways to handle an outgoing but still an elect

Facebook, Twitter and the rest shouldn't act like arbiters of truth. I think this is just plain wrong and a slippery slope for the entire industry.

If they really had access to everything for the past several months then that doesn't say much for their competency.

This is precisely the reason why I'm against moving everything to the cloud. Find your way into AWS or Azure and you will have everything on a silver platter.

Without an activated carbon filter on the outside to collect dust and other bigger particles your HEPA filters will be utterly useless in only a few weeks. If you keep your windows closed then I guess it could last longer but then you may h

Incompetence runs through every facet of American government, corporations and even private businesses. There's an insane amount of bureaucracy and people doing IT who have no business doing IT. As for the corporations, the established

San Francisco is the 16th largest city by population and has a budget of around 14 billion which is like 6 or 7 times larger than many cities with much bigger population. This is just a badly run city and throwing more money at their proble

I learned about this and many other techniques from the book "The Oxygen Advantage". It definitely makes a big difference but I wouldn't say that it completely resolved it but then I haven't been practicing consistently.

Not from California but I don't blame him. Instead of controlling waste, the usual answer from state and local governments (particularly in California) seems to be raise the taxes. When you have janitors making making 250k+ you have s

SEC is nowhere to be seen. What I'm interested in is to see who actually bought into this scam? Is there a list of all the (smart money...cough) hedge funds, retirement funds and others who invested significantly in this scam? A clown

Looks like next Theranos to me. You have to give credit to the guy though since he is showing how easy it is to fool the so-called "smart money".

Love the side mirror camera on my Honda Civic (It's only on the right side but incredibly useful when changing lanes). I probably wouldn't completely replace the side mirrors with cameras yet though.

Why just 2010 to 2018? Mine was terminated back in 2008 with about $500 in it.
