There are some objections here saying that some US firms are using Chinese AI providers, but I wonder if any of those are subject to compliance. Large firms that are disproportionately responsible for AI spending are all subject to complian

I am too. I've heard of the supposedly correct pronunciation, but I can't bring myself to use it. The "PRY-mer" pronunciation is more common in practice.

I command you to love systemd timers! (Yeah, they're pretty useful, especially after you get an LLM to write all the boilerplate for you. The boilerplate was the main reason I preferred crontab before.)

Not related - many robber barons went bankrupt in the severe economic crashes of the time, such as the Panics of 1873 and 1893. The Gilded Age continued despite bubbles popping.

Woz isn't some kind of monk. He enjoys his tech toys that he can only afford because he's rich. He's just bad at managing his money and lost a lot of it through multiple divorces.

Woz should have a lot more money than that for being such a large early shareholder of Apple, so that actually speaks poorly to his reputation as a "successful entrepreneur/investor". Some of the reason why his net worth is b

In the sense that its capabilities were a little overhyped as a quantum leap / unique security threat, and it's so expensive that it's impossible for Anthropic at scale. That hype looked a bit silly when GPT-5.5 matched or ev

It's interesting that ChatGPT Pro is the real deal that can write novel physics or math papers (for certain values of novel), while Claude Pro is crap that, depending on the A/B test, may not even provide Claude Code or at the ver

Can you name any instance of OpenAI being as trigger-happy with bans as Anthropic has been in the past few months? Codex may have fewer prosumers, but they've added a lot in that time.

Still not great if you want a family, because daycare/private school are expensive, and housing in a good school district (to not have to pay for private school) are even more expensive.
