_3u10··on A field guide to the modern front end for developers who hand-wrote HTML
Server side rendering on a serverless platform is all you need to know about “modern” front ends.
_3u10··on U.S. allows Anthropic to release Mythos AI to ‘trusted’ US organizations
They don’t, they wouldn’t need tariffs if they did.

America mostly produces cheaper ag commodities than the EU but more expensive than South America. Deepseek is already a better search engine than Google. (Not sure if it does Google searches)

Travel the world it’s not American companies gaining market share. I would especially recommend trying Chinese AI or riding in a BYD car and judging for yourself.

_3u10··on U.S. government will decide who gets to use GPT-5.6
I don’t think they have. I used to think that Claude sucked because of the harness so I tried it on opencode and it was still trash.

I’m sure if the primary problem I was solving was multi file complex exploits it would be better but even that I am not sure of. I’ve always found the it’s too dangerous claims to be a bit underwhelming.

_3u10··on U.S. government will decide who gets to use GPT-5.6
I don’t think the ai market has been around long enough to prove winner take all, I see it more like a commodity which is why the winner quickly switched from OpenAI to Anthropic at least on coding.

I generally find the Chinese models to be superior. If you look at the token pricing or hosting cost it’s still about 80% margin on Chinese models. Deep cuts should still be possible.

_3u10··on The Doorman's Fallacy in action
Why I prefer Asuncion to Dubai in a nutshell.

Chauffeur / Valet > parking apps

Maids > dishwashers, laundry, roomba, cooking

Fixers > everything else

_3u10··on Anthropic says Alibaba illicitly extracted Claude AI model capabilities
The outputs belong to whoever purchased them. What are they complaining about?
_3u10··on The 100k Whys of AI
I’ve rarely experienced this. Typically what is requested is code that has unpredictable pauses, takes unbounded time, has two kinds of null, etc.
_3u10··on The 100k Whys of AI
It’s actually pretty easy to distinguish AI from real text because all AI generated texts have 2.4 children. In aggregate it is indistinguishable statistically but for a given text it’s remarkably easy.
_3u10··on Hetzner Price Adjustment
Not really. You can still not use AI. The solid data is that RAM is more expensive than before… so there’s a small case to be made there because of you need a new computer you can’t avoid that.
_3u10··on Rio de Janeiro's "homegrown" LLM appears to be a merge of an existing model
No, typically Brazilians go to Paraguay for their education, most of their technology comes from Paraguay too.
_3u10··on Rio de Janeiro's "homegrown" LLM appears to be a merge of an existing model
No, they need the same arch, but you can distill them into a single model. And yes, if you use the API directly Claude will often say it’s an open weight model (likely the ones it was distilled from)
_3u10··on GLM 5.2 Is Out
Yeah, who needs censorship when Canadians attend no kings protests about a democratically elected leader of another country and not King Charles.

Ask Claude a simple question, which is a more democratic country El Salvador or Canada. It’s so completely biased about “western” countries it’s not even funny.

_3u10··on GLM 5.2 Is Out
I’ve not experienced this with Chinese models.
_3u10··on Statement on US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5
To be fair to Anthropic it’s not really a frontier model at this point.

But I’m glad the government took his claims seriously and the models are suspended until an appropriate regulatory framework can be developed.

_3u10··on Statement on US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5
It’s literally what they said.

Now there’s appropriate safe guards around the dangerous for humanity models they made.

Thankfully government is looking out for us.

_3u10··on Anthropic apologizes for invisible Claude Fable guardrails
Probably the same reason a Epyc 9965 from hetzner performs just as well as one from AWS for one tenth the cost.

Anthropic is offering a commodity product and trying to convince you it isn’t.

It’s even in the name, it’s a myth and a fable. Never happened doesn’t exist.

Also I believe at least on coding that qwen is now the frontier model, fable is its copy of frontier models. In the same way that the Ferrari Luce is an expensive imitation of a SU7 Ultra.

_3u10··on Claude Fable 5
> "incredibly" is doing a ton of work here.

so this is why claude talks like this, i was wondering where it was getting this verbal tick from.

_3u10··on The Pentagon is running an AI propaganda mill targeting Latin America
When I think of socialism I think of everything from Trump and to the left of Trump.

Brazil/Argentina/Trump style tariffs, banning the import of DJI/BYD/Huawei, etc. and yes china is socialist too.

I’m not American I don’t really think of America as capitalist wonderland.

And yes cheap Bolivian subsidized gas is wonderful, same with subsidized Argentinian everything, 3:1 blue dollar etc. let me explicitly thank their populace for subsidizing many vacations and day to day living costs.

_3u10··on The Pentagon is running an AI propaganda mill targeting Latin America
Ahh it’s just fake AI that I can walk around with a beer and not get hassled?

It’s fake AI that the top tax rate is 10%?

_3u10··on The Pentagon is running an AI propaganda mill targeting Latin America
There’s a bit of a difference in people dying of starvation vs obesity. Unless there is some kind of capitalist force feeding going on.

Especially when the year before the agricultural reforms there was minimal starvation.

_3u10··on The Pentagon is running an AI propaganda mill targeting Latin America
For a system with subsidized education there’s a strangely high number of doctors from Brazil getting their education in Paraguay.
_3u10··on The Causes of Long Covid
Also, many people have cured chronic illnesses such as Crohn’s disease by moving to countries with low levels of those diseases.
_3u10··on The Causes of Long Covid
You used to be able to order a paper version but here it is.

_3u10··on CT scans of BYD car parts
The lada and movkvisch of car brands with people willing to cross the wall to buy BYD in Mexico
_3u10··on CT scans of BYD car parts
All you need to know is that BYD cars are good enough that the US had to effectively ban them.
_3u10··on United Airlines 767 returns to Newark after Bluetooth name sparks alert
It doesn’t.

I get my lighter through in Brazil all the time and a friend of mine got giant scissors through in Buenos Aires. It’s entirely a choice to freak out over nothing.

In most of the world you’re allowed to do outlandish things like have a beer at the mall. Or walk outside with one.

_3u10··on United Airlines 767 returns to Newark after Bluetooth name sparks alert
Agreed. I’m glad I live in a normal country, last time I was in the US and Canada it struck me how truly insane it is.
_3u10··on I think Anthropic and OpenAI have found product-market fit
Kimi is better.
_3u10··on DeepSeek reasonix, DeepSeek native coding agent with high caching and low cost
FISA section 702 / Five eyes / Room 641A.
_3u10··on We're testing new ad formats in Search and expanding our Direct Offers pilot
Will I be able to pay google to make its Claude code write code that uses left pad as a service.
