I always use 5.2-Codex-High or 5.2-Codex-Extra High (in Cursor). The regular version is probably too dumb.

In my personal experience the GPT models have always been significantly better than the Claude models for agentic coding, I’m baffled why people think Claude has the edge on programming.

Ben Thompson has long been insistent that ChatGPT and other AI tools basically have to have ads and it's been a big mistake they didn't have them sooner. It's an interesting take: > What I think is clear is they have to bu

Unpopular opinion: why would you want a "native app"? On macOS, basically every app Apple makes themselves is worse in terms of design, usability, and performance than a popular Electron-based alternative. For example, I tried ope

Apple did an even worse job than you think: they didn't even LLM Siri so I guess it just broke.

No there aren't actually. Seems like they did it once or twice with a chase vehicle. https://electrek.co/2026/01/28/teslas-unsupervised-robotaxis...

I agree you had a reason for what you said about the "E", I'm taking issue with what you said. No, speaking on someone else's behalf, as lawyers are obligate to do is not lying. They are representing their client's

Arguing the "E" in the "Eggo" trademark and the "E" on the egg roll truck are so distinct that anyone arguing it must be lying is not a reasonable position.

I followed the Snowden stuff fairly closely and forgot, so I bet they didn't think about it at all and if they did they didn't care and that was surely the right call.

Hybrids don't solve the main problem which is global warming, which demands zero carbon, not 50MPG gas cars.

OK but we already know that EVs don't just move pollution around.

Net zero is what I'm talking about. Your Corolla is worse than a BEV because it puts way more GHG in the atmosphere, making net zero harder. Your opinion that the Corolla emits less GHG than a BEV is not borne out by the data. Most of

This is a car that is more expensive than a Tesla Model 3 in the Chinese market, with more or less the same features.

Well, a hybrid doesn't solve the problem. We don't need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we need to zero them out. You can't do that if you sometimes burn gas.

I think you should be allowed to stop supporting a hardware device without open sourcing the software, full stop. I just think that's the least bad option. I'd be fine if manufacturers had to have some kind of standard "nutri

I think it's okay, or even better probably, if they move to subscription only. All Apple's paid apps have languished for years and if its actually a revenue stream for them maybe they'll actually make them industry-leading ag

Couldn't you just as well say it's a human taking inspiration from other humans through a machine?

Skeptical? There's not even a clear claim of what the leaked information is? There just appears to be no leak at all.

Can anyone read? The text doesn't mention Claude Code or anything like it at all. I swear to god everyone is spoiling for a fight because they're bored. All these AI companies have this language to try to prevent people from &quot

The argument is very simple, Elon Musk's decision led to hundreds of thousands of deaths, and will result in millions more. Auditing government programs for efficacy is not a scam, but Elon Musk did not do that. He said he would do tha

I would not say Steve Jobs received only praise during his life or after his death.

I just use Cursor because I can pick any mode. The difference is hard to say exactly, Opus seems good but 5.2 seems smarter on the tasks I tried. Or possibly I just "trust" it more. I tend to use high or extra high reasoning.

I mean "even" in a Tesla you can adjust volume, next/previous track, wipers, cruise control (among other things) with a physical button, and climate controls are in a fixed location on the screen (and are typically left on au

They don't, it's mostly vibes plus them assuming that the "touchscreen cars" don't have some nebulous physical button that they probably do.

I'm trying to understand if it's actually true that he did not "opt in" to OneDrive and that his files "one day appeared" there, which seems unlikely. I'm not here to say Microsoft is capable of designing
