The market will always trend towards less friction - no matter the friction.

This will take off and all the time we've spent on colorful buttons and 3px margins will be like old 2 lane highways build next to the 12 lane super-freeways.

That IS what they're doing.

The surprise is your idea of "relatively cheap" is fungible.

The service WILL be astounding though, I can't deny that.

> most of my driving miles are like that

Makes a lot of sense

Im curious - why do you need 450 miles of range?

My tesla goes 3 hours at 80mph. I can get to any charger I need. There are considerably more than I ever imagined.

Cool, thanks!

Is there a batteries included Rails for Rust that people go to other than this Topcoat? What is the standard when building a web-app in rust?

It's interesting to see the level of discourse change across time as these same points are brought up again and again.

It seems there are many many more people heavily invested in preventing land tax all of a sudden and are very informed whereas when that guy made a land tax visualizer a few months ago... crickets.

> but I struggle to even conceptualize what land value means

One of the first comments. Now there are dozens of people who are suddenly well versed in "georgeism"?

OK great make a homestead exemption. Lots of those already.

Nice, Colmar, Basil, sections of Paris, Vienna, Barcelona and Madrid.

That's exactly how it should work however, even if power steering goes out the steering still works. Albeit in a degraded state.

You're arguing a distinction without a difference. I added those tools because we can agree they are almost entirely built by LLMs.

> Cursor, Codex and Claude Code all have terrible desktop applications

No they aren't - at least not anymore than any other cross platform focused program - and we're not here to bike shed about modern software.

In fact they're pretty solid.

I had more examples that you've yet to refute or even acknowledge. AI isn't inherently bad just like money isn't inherently evil. You're also allowed to not like something just cuz w/o a logical reason. I just don't have to agree with you.

> The big labs are going to be on the hook for rogue behavior

They haven't so far.

Gmail has a feature that uses ai to search emails.

Cursor, Codex, Claude Code, Pi, Zed, Oh my Pi.

The recent improvements and optimizations for Redis.

Figma code, mcp and api.

The recent improvements to Uv, Pnpm, and others with autoresearch loops.

Truman looked down the street where an explosion occurred, then a shadowy figure came out of the smoke, approached down the road, ran into truman and then past him and accosted an indian man in a turban. They threw blows until an identical clone of the indian in a turban tackled the shadowy man to the rear of the frame. The first Indian man was handed a white monster energy drink. He took a sip. He immediately tranformed into Truman with glowing blue eyes. Truman was visibly confused and started saying garbled words like "what did you givrm." "I can feel the mermegh"

Then hugged to death.

We 100% have. I've seen significant improvements in many of the services I use.

I didn't find 4.6 any better than Composer 2.5 - which remains incredible and honestly nothing else compares for me.

Make a galaxy model search the space, create a document, argue and defend decisions, then hand it to 2.5 to implement. 4.6 was a slower less enjoyable version of that.

4.7 is better at "I want the button to cancel the jobs, dont make any mistakes" but honestly that's not what I use it's class for.

The photos I get on my iPhone are worse with every generation. Can anyone tell me if the photos are any good on these new ones? The hardware is fine I'm sure it's the post processing that destroys the image.

These are not illegitimate. They are registered 3rd parties facilitating the government. At least the ones that are on the list are not.

I got one from passportsfast or something. Highly recommended (if it's registered)

I ditched the screen and got a band with health metrics on it. Its tiny and comfy, no screens, only a wakeup buzz in the morning when I'm most able to wake apparently. Battery lasts maybe a week? Been great. Best of all no advertisements pinging me every few hours.

smuggling cheese and dried sausage?

Clears up understanding but the new name encompasses the new regimes stance quite effectively.

They've already got a kind of masseur. You put on a spandex outfit to reduce friction and lay under 2 arms apparently.

Works with sweet potatoes. Make sure to order some super fancy, delicious ones online and use those.

Also consider using your HVAC systems condensation line to provide them water. Add some sunflowers and you're on the way to a self sustaining chicken factory.

Spotify has gone downhill in that regard for sure. It floods my pages with "created for you" which is just the same 4-5 artists played in the last few weeks ago kludged together into a playlist. Alongside some of the worst music you could imagine (Payola? Idk..)

Any recommendations anyone has for music discovery I'm all ears. I recently moved away from a town that had a 10/10 radio station and I'm really feeling the TOP-40-only pain.

I write clean code with lots of encapsulation. Not C++ just an ecomm webapp but our business hinges heavily on time to load and we do great there.

Clean code or messy code the thing that all fast code has in common - including your example is this: YOU FOCUSED ON IT.

You measured it, then improved against the benchmark. You spent time and effort on it so it improved.

That's it. That's the secret.

Extrapolate

Why are you so anti-anthropic? Hundreds of posts on hacker news decrying anthropic.

Saw a recent post about an electric plane - was pretty sweet let me dig it up. $5 worth of fuel!

They say you aren't interacting with an LLM or a model, but the character that the LLM is playing - the "always be positive and helpful software engineer"
