This is absurd.
The alternative before the LLMs took over was getting a machine response to tell you that someone will look into it, then getting no response at all.
At least today, they spend a few cents to generate the same lousy response, which is much more respectful /s
That said, I switched to a macbook pro last year and these machines are like from another world. I want to get things done instead of fiddling with the machine and, famous last words I know but, this thing just works.
Yes, it'll be e-waste the moment a small thing breaks, and costs like a years wage in some parts of the world, so it's no competition to the thinkpad.
I hope framework eventually delivers the best of both worlds.
https://x.com/JesusIsGod/status/2116228727059411248 am I misinterpreting? Or was it always 10x? Everything is so vague, no wonder they call it "vibe-coding" :)
edit: A lot of people on twitter say it has always been 10x for weekly so what do I know
So happy to have the open models!
You don't need to be so hostile. I know about the EU requirements but many EU companies have sensitive data on hosted JIRA / Confluence that simply cannot be in the possession of a non-European company. I know because I'm working for one. I cannot even remote-work from outside Europe. Some stuff cannot even leave the VPN. There's also the CLOUD act.
edit: My criticism is for the suffix version to be clear. Unless / else is actually cool.
Got the numbers on a spreadsheet. Of course this is a super simplistic version assuming equal yearly commitments.
This made me realize it's been a long time since I did some brainstorming and how I missed it.
It's a night and day difference with mac.
I still have my linux desktop when I want to tinker.
How a decision is made, what gets released etc. are all opaque processes and blaming the devs from the outside is not productive.
That said, I'm all for it for devs becoming more responsible for the end result, evaluated within the org boundaries. Especially these days when people tend to cop out with "oh cloude did it / didn't catch it" responses (before, it was "oh I had to come up with something quick and couldn't check everything").
A very complex task tends to cost like 10$ max. It's comparable to a subscription with enormous flexibility.
It's a steal.
You are added to the list of projects I thought would really become essential to my work but slowly faded away. Another one, for example is rethinkdb.
At least Deno actually caused some movement in the node world, just like io.js.
