The high cost of labor has nothing to do with reusable parts of the washing machine. If it was all standardized, you could do a lot of repairs yourself.

I see an objective difference in speed between Team account and my personal max 20 and a subjective difference in quality.

On my personal account projects get 90% and then get stuck on a bug and then I have to hand the project over to codex to fix. Then codex usually is like “this feature was stubbed out and not connected at all”. Like wtf is going on with Claude. It gets so much complicated stuff right and then completely whiffs the main details.

On my teams premium account, I can complete things fine and fast.

The definitions of what is messy or clean will change will llms…

But there will always be a spectrum of structures that are better for the llm to code with, and coding with less optimal patterns will have negative feedback effects as the loop goes on.

Garbage in, garbage out.

The llm is forced to eat its own output. If the output is garbage, its inputs will be garbage in future passes. How code is structured makes the llm implement new features in different ways.

We still have in English: us-two and you-two and we-two.

Same number of syllables.

Maybe “Song of just us two”

Like it’s common to hear “You two better stay out of trouble”

Or “it was us two in the apartment alone…”

Or “them two are pretty good together ”

Interesting that in English we had special pronoun for plurals of exactly 2, but in Russian for instance they have special case declensions for plurals less than 5.

Is that significant? I have no idea. Is there a language with special case for exactly 2 with another case for a “few” and with yet another for “a lot”? Interesting to compare different cultures.

Jobs was a marketer, a product visionary and a ruthless businessman. You need more than just marketing.

Buying options and rolling them might cost more than the decay on the etf

Yeah it’s so frustrating to have to constantly ask for the best solution, not the easiest / quickest / less disruptive.

I have in Claude md that it’s a greenfield project, only present complete holistic solutions not fast patches, etc. but still I have to watch its output.

Yeah, idk I guess it’s interesting if you are an engineer looking for something to do,

But like I see multiple sandbox for agents products a week. Way too saturated of a market

> write complex algorithms, or to debug complex issues, or do performance optimization

That’s the stuff that ai is eating. The stuff I’m talking about (scaling orgs, maintaining a project long term, deciding what features to build or not build etc) is stuff very hard for ai

They can’t write maintainable code because they don’t have real world experience of getting your hands dirty in a company. The only way to get startup experience is to build a startup or work for one

Sounds like maybe you might have some mixed feelings about becoming more effective with ai, but then at the same time everyone else is too so the praise youre expecting is diluted.

I see it all the time now too. People have no frame of reference at all about what is hard or easy so engineers feel under-appreciated because the guy who never coded is getting lots of praise for doing something basic while experienced people are able to spit out incredibly complex things. But to an outsider, both look like they took the same work.

A government app being built like b2c is exactly the problem

Wow I thought it was tmux messing up on me, interesting to hear it happens without it too

Open router is an upper bound of compute cost for the open source models. So people assume that opus and sonnet really isn’t sucking up 10x the resources because open source models aren’t 10x worse. Idk if it’s true or not, but haiku is $5/m tokens and it is much worse than the $2-3/mt models imo

According to open router token demand is growing at something like 10% a week

It’s insane

You’re most likely consuming a large quantity of genai art without even knowing it.

Ok, how big of an issue? How many students? How much wasted on fraud? I went to a top school where sometimes students tried to fake residency. It was essentially a non issue in the grand scheme of the potential waste for a school district to generate.

The product is putting the skills / harness behind the api instead of the agent locally on your computer and iterating on that between model updates. Close off the garden.

Not that I want it, just where I imagine it going.

> Who is the target for this?

Agents. Going to be more tools and software targeted for consumption by agents

Short term gets faster more competitive results than long term.

It’s a factual statement that email exists. If it is true or not is another thing.

I don’t think it’s controversial to say someone with a history of pedophilia (yes a grown 38 yo man 17yo highschooler is pedophile) being mentioned a the island should at least step back and investigate it.

I didn’t smear anyone. I said I stopped my rewatch.

After investigating Jerry further, yeah dating a 17 year old high schooler and picking her up after school is equal distressing.

So thank you for your astute analysis and defense of a person who drove to a high school to have a physical relationship 21 years younger but I’ll hold off on watching Seinfeld for now. If that’s not too controversial.

Go look at the photos and tell me that everyone is overreacting. If anything people are under reacting.

After the 3-4th blacked out little girl showing her genitals so they can be sold, I’m going to go out on a limb and say that if someone is connected to the island they need to be thoroughly investigated. That’s not a stretch.

Replies like yours are what’s sick downplaying the most prolific industrial child rape in modern America and only one person is sitting in prison. And none of the customers.

Honestly I’ve been sick to my stomach these past few days. I wasn’t even looking for the files and saw some in my feed on Reddit.

Basically take the most sad and disturbing Eastern European horror and put it in email form.

I had to stop my Seinfeld rewatch because I saw one email were he just happened to be boating by and stopped by the island for lemonade.

The richest people and political elite were openly trading prices on children, leaving rave reviews on child services and how great that torture film was that was sent

Its sick

I don’t think they need a warrant if they buy it directly from the company though. A little loophole.

For me plan mode is consistently pretty fast. Then to implement I just walk away and wait for it to be done while working on new plan in new tab

Probably more stress if I’m on battery and don’t want the laptop to sleep or WiFi to get interrupted.

Project releases with llms have grown to be less about the functionality and more about convincing others to care.

Before the proof of work of code in a repo by default was a signal of a lot of thought going into something. Now this flood of code in these vibe coded projects is by default cheap and borderline meaningless. Not throwing shade or anything at coding assistants. Just the way it goes

For me cursor provides a much tighter feedback loop than Claude code. I can review revert iterate change models to get what I need. It feels sometimes Claude code is presented more as a yolo option where you put more trust on the agent about what it will produce.

I think the ability to change models is critical. Some models are better at designing frontend than others. Some are better at different programming languages, writing copy, blogs, etc.

I feel sabotaged if I can’t switch the models easily to try the same prompt and context across all the frontier options
