Couldn't it write them in a web based dev environment?

    how would claude code work from a browser environment?

Maybe a browser plugin that lets the agent use websites is enough?

What would be a task that an agent cannot do on the web?

    German chancellor Friedrich Merz ... 
    lashed out at German workers to
    “simply do a little more,”

A friend of mine, an engineer who works in the German car industry, recently told me that nowadays he has a lot of free time. Because the company he works for has so few orders that the company is granted "Kurzarbeitergeld" - the government pays 60% of the salary if the employees work less.

That blew my mind. If I had fewer orders, I would work more to increase the quality of my product and my efficiency. Working less as a reaction to losing market share seems completely counterproductive to me.

The last time I was excited about the performance of local computers was in the 90s I think.

Modern laptops are so insanely fast. Not sure if they are 2x, 10x or 100x faster than I need them to be. But I never hear fans. I never have to wait for the machine these days.

But ...

The 13 inch version is heavier than a ThinkPad X1 Carbon. Which has a 14 inch screen and can run Linux.

Maybe if someone here is in the USA and has bought one, they can chime in and tell where they got it from?

Man, is it empty these days. The chart used to be pretty full. Now it only has about 1% of all phones that are in the Product Chart database. As the other 99% have fixed batteries.

I'm looking forward to see if the EU decision will push some companies to do this for their US versions too and revive the chart.

In most countries, AI answers are the central aspect of Google now. Not the ranked pages.

We have not seen iterative AI use for example.

The use case, where you tell the model "Solve this task. Then solve it again. Keep the better solution, then solve it again. On and on. Tomorrow, show me the best solution.".

And also not the "Run a company on your own" use case.

Those might make people and companies use models full-time. The price of that will be way different from current subscription prices. The TCO of a single instance of a SOTA model is on the order of $100k per year.

Google search revenue for example was over $200B in 2025. This revenue will be tightly coupled to the quality of their AI models in the future.

Now it is at 20%.

A $1T investment needs to produce on the order of $100B in yearly earnings to be a good investment.

Global GDP is about $100T.

So one way for things to work out for the AI companies would be if AI raises GDP by 1% and the AI companies capture 10% of the created value.

I keep reading on https://www.reddit.com/r/androidterminal/ about user experiences with it and it seems pretty great.

On http://co-do.xyz/ you can select a directory and let AI get to work inside of it without having to worry about side effects.

The Fily System Access API is the best thing that happened to the web in years. It makes web apps first class productivity applications.

That would be just $50B - a pretty cheap way to increase the size of the USA by 20%.

It shouldn't be hard to print pieces that can snap together. In all kinds of colors and all kinds of forms.

I imagine the adventure of printing new pieces would be a fun thing for the kids and the parents. And when the kids are old enough, they can print pieces on their own. And a bit later design pieces on their own.

Would there be any downside to this approach?

When you apply the same test to the output of Math.PI, does it pass?

1: Almost all numbers are transcendental.

2: If you could pick a real number at random, the probability of it being transcendental is 1.

3: Finding new transcendental numbers is trivial. Just add 1 to any other transcendental number and you have a new transcendental number.

Most of our lives we deal with non-transcendental numbers, even though those are infinitely rare.

It says the input has 3 dimensions, two spatial dimensions and one feature dimension. So it would be a 2D grid of numbers. Like a grayscale photo. But at 00:38 it shows the numbers and it looks like each of the blocks positioned in 3D space holds a floating-point value. Which would make it a 4-dimensional input.

With classes, I can do:

    carList = document.querySelector('.carList')

When I hit ctrl+f on that page and type "export":

First it says "1 of 4 matches" but nothing is highlighted.

When I hit enter, it says "2 of 4 matches" and again, nothing is highlighted.

When I hit enter again, it says "3 of 4 matches" and the first match is highlighted.

When I hit enter again, it says "4 of 4 matches" and the second match is highlighted.

I have yet to see a good web based text editor with syntax highlighting. They all mess with the native search functionality of the browser. Because they can't just use a textarea for the edit area. With this approach, it would be possible.

I wonder how usable a Python version of this would be?

Hmm .. and the approach already shows its weaknesses when I play with it: When I search for something on the page, it gives me twice as many hits as there are. And jumps around two times to each hit when I use the "next" button.

I wonder if that is fixable.

The ease of use to highlight static text via Arborium seems nice:

    <script src="arborium.iife.js"></script>
    <pre><code class="language-python">
        def hello(name):
            print("Hello " + name);
    </code></pre>

And how would one add SCAD support?

When wiggle the spring, keep the mouse inside the white area until it is at rest, press CTRL+u to see the source code, move the mouse to close the source code tab and close it - for some magical reason the spring is moving again for a little bit.
