I find it extremely repugnant how _everything_ gets treated like advertising surface area now. Its disrespectful to everyone and I feel like we're far past the point of diminishing returns.

These agent assistants are really appealing to the optimist within me, but I have a hard time making the trust leap. What are people using these "personal assistant" agents for?

I think this service is already pretty good, but when defending against LLM based attacks, they're a godsend. Current tools don't appear to be too discerning.

Multiple instances are needed if you want multiple versions of a given movie or episode. For example, I have a Dolby Vision device that works great with certain files, but on some other devices the file works poorly and doesn't transcode well. Plex handles multiple files fine.

Definitely not a usecase for everyone

The roadster hasn't shipped after 9 years. Including a referral program for preorders. I find it incredibly more insane to be trusting of this

I would. I wish I had true choice in phone manufacturers. With the EU ruling and the Epic games court cases, I had hope that apple would be forced to open up in the US as well. I was planning my next device purchase decision around this.

I am not interested in jailbreaking or rooting my device to run my apps. I am not interested in the testflight process. I am an adult and can pick and choose what apps I want. And I would like to exercise the whole "voting with my wallet" thing when a company makes an anti-consumer decision.

People were cynical on here about the Apple Vision Pro as well...

Heya, idk if you will catch this late reply. I don't think its wise to completely write off wedding photographers or advertising photographers as not artists. The worlds are heavily intertwined and there is skill and taste involved in both fields.

Art is subjective

> Second, this week, we’ll roll out a new monthly API credit to all Max and Team subscribers for use on the Claude Platform. Max 5x users will get $100 in credits per month, Max 20x users will get $200, and Team subscribers will receive up to $500, pooled across their users

This is a very big benefit for me. I can now ship actual ai enhanced features behind my subscription without paying extra or fully relying on on-device models. I do worry that this is to soften the blow for user-unfriendly changes

Honestly I think I disagree. If you take photography as an art for example, the "scale" was pretty technology constrained for a long while.

I think this is the next step in the evolution of AI based tools. We can develop the app or tool, but we need somewhere to easily publish it.

I actually recently shared my own version of this concept, but self hosted. I'm optimistic that there can't be much lock-in from the big providers, but I think there's a large market to capture

Why isn't it? The change was clearly made to indicate the posture of the department. Either to US citizens or to powers abroad. Even though its "just" words it indicates intent.

Nit:Taxpayers didn't have to pay money for the bailout. FDIC is an insurance program with premiums paid by banks

Experienced travelers also often face troubled, contradictory instructions from airport staff seemingly at random.

The experience doesn't have to be so stressful and confusing, but I'm not sure how to fix it.

I think this is fair with the amount of notice being given, but the price increase is very steep

Cattle feed is more than grass

I really feel this. Every implementation so far hasn't felt like it reduced the contextual load involved for dealing with multiple agents. Tmux/Cmux is great, but whoever figures this out will probably make it big.

Its nice to receive a decent amount of closure on this. Hopefully more folks are being more considerate when creating their soul documents

For Linux as well. In my opinion you shouldn't remain blind to the benefits of other operating systems

I'm in the market for speakers and Bose definitely has rose higher on my list

My reflex is to call the website useless because the problem isn't usually software produced by individuals. My problem is the buggy messes that trillion dollar corporations produce.

I definitely don't disagree there! I think I am on the same page as you as far as goals. I just am unfortunately a bit more jaded and pessimistic about the unending reach of these platforms.

This is something I've personally explored and lightly researched. I think the general population generally prefers recommendation algorithms (they espouse how great _their_ for-you page is on tik-tok or how spotify suggests the best music).

You would also be combating against ad and social media companies with extremely deep pockets. You have to keep in mind that algorithmic sorting also would impact search engines like Google and a ton of shopping websites.

I personally think the way this has to be done is something more fundamental and "grassroots-like". Similar to how a significant chunk of the internet are against "AI content" I think that same group of people need to be shown that this algorithmic recommendation brainrot is impacting society considerably.

edit: To take this point further, as an American, I have been wondering why people would disagree on basic principals or what feels like facts. The problem is that their online experience is completely different than mine. No two people share an exact same home page for any service. How are you supposed to get on the same page as someone when they live in a practically different world than you?

Supply and demand. Selling via grey markets is an option, but many white hats don't go that route due to risk. There's plenty of people that will also find vulnerabilities without any money attached.

Wow, I was under the impression that these were selling incredibly well.

I started to appreciate Ford's strategy recently after they lost my faith after they killed off sedans in the US. I'm now confused again by the company's strategy

It is a very significant consideration for every one of those tools. The introduction of the "ribbon" in Excel was moderately controversial in 2007.

The default tools made available in Photoshop is why it remains on top to this day.

What scares me about Claude Code (and ai developer tools in general) is that a small model update could change how I interact with the tool entirely. There's no freezing the communication style that I need to use for good results.

What do you mean exactly? Some people like being able to watch YouTube and Netflix without utilizing a third party device.

The tv also has a microprocessor to upscale/decode content. Most tvs also have the ability to connect to a variety of sound systems through Bluetooth.

If your concern is additional cost for the bundled features, I believe the ads subsidize and offset the cost. (I'm not pro ad. Again, I do not connect my tv to the Internet, but let's not reject the benefits entirely).

"Non smart" TVs are prohibitively expensive in my experience. They are large format monitors. You can also consider a projector.

I need people to give this sort of idea more serious thought.

I honestly don't think it's an insane proposition and we've let ad companies go too far. Anything they stick their hands in gets worse, full stop.
