On-prem vs cloud though, is two very different things. In the later, I don't have to worry about hardware/power/networking/etc at all.

I wonder if bcantrill will ever get back into cloud hosting ... to revive his Joyent days (which he alludes to without naming directly in the post).

How do you even define PE? Because there’s many shades of gray here, no?

This post was so refreshing to read, because it reminds me of a time of solid engineering & writing in a pre-AI era. I’m afraid posts like this might become fleeting.

Great explanation. Do you think this could be extrapolated to areas with no objectively verifiable results / outcomes? (Outside of math & science)

Do you think ChatGPT UX is better (after they merged everything recently)? Genuinely curious.

I hope this doesn’t get confusing like ChatGPT made it. I feel like Claude has some of the best UX, and hope this doesn’t dilute the experience.

All respect to the author on their work, but for me personally - I'm be more interested in Hammer2 (from Dragonfly BSD) to come to OpenBSD. https://github.com/kusumi/openbsd_hammer2

And given how Apple switched out OpenAI for Gemini (to power Siri), they experienced firsthand the importance of having said wrapper.

The more I learn about octopus, the more they seem like alien species. They have something like 8 different brains, can regenerate limbs, incredibly smart, can change colors & texture to match surrounds, and more.

People under estimate how hard it is to talk naturally in front of a camera. There’s a reason why acting as a profession exists.

I’m in a weird spot because my iPad is old and my iPhone old. So I’m in the market to buy new ones of each. So I’m now having to decide if I just buy the Duo … instead of a new phone and new iPad. But seems like a worse phone and worse iPad

Why does it have to be for anyone other than the people involved in it? (Though I’m sure people outside the project get value from it as well, like OpenBSD using Asahi bootloader)

OT: is Cloudflare not offering Pages anymore? I logged into CF dashboard the other day and was super confused because it appears to be replaced by Workers.

Doesn’t this ignore that the future of ads will probably just be some type of affiliate revenue going back to the agent for any product they help recommend.

My understanding is that MotherDuck provides hosting for DuckDB. And DuckLabs is the engineering behind DuckDB. If I'm correct, this seems like a signal that AWS is coming after the segment of customers wanting to host DuckDB (MotherDu

I have to imagine Apple was pushing for similar functionality but probably got distracted over the last few years due to the lawsuits.

That’s a great point. Managing cash for a merchant also brings real costs as well. You have to take it to the bank or pay a service to pick up cash. You’re way more likely to have “leakage” when any cashier can pocket cash. Etc

Issuing banks typically add an FX fee to the cardholder for cross border transactions. Not always, but many times they do.

To be more specific, this is a US credit card topic. Debit card fees are capped in the US, yet I’ve never received a discount from a merchant for paying with debit instead of credit. As such, I just pay with credit and have never understood

OpenAI/Anthropic/etc don’t establish the direct customer relationship. And OpenRouter can steer traffic away from those labs over to their own model. The major labs don’t get personalized data about the user to train on, since it’

Can someone help me understand why OpenAI, Anthropic & other proprietary models would want to make their offerings available on OpenRouter? It seems strategically not in their interest.

I respect Seth quite a bit and have been an avid reader for two decades, but this post struck me as odd. It reads as though he’s just discovering how the digital advertising industry works (and he's a marketer) ... not just Amazon, but

Can someone explain why Flock is such a politically charged topic. I’m only now becoming aware of it, and feel like I’m out of the loop on key aspects.
