This sounds like "I told you so".
What the heck have you been doing instead of pointing out the obvious?

What the heck have you been doing instead of pointing out the obvious?
Did i say everythign is stupid? No. I only showed the part of the issues.
You went down the slippery slope went extreme.
This is what happens when a part of country does not follow. China is the other extreme. They got one stupid timezone, so one part of the country is dark AF, but then other side is daylight.
This all comes down to whoever is running the government.
US should also abolish stupid daylight savings, but northern politicians do not want while there is bipartisan agreement to make the savings time permenant.
Don't ever use "buts" as you sound like an ass IRL.
Disagree/criticise instead of not pretenting to do so. (kinda like ask, don't ask to ask)
For hackertube, the source changed from Google to HN.
Nothing lost, just the source of the truth moved.
Bad accessibility, not just for the fatties but also elderlies.
I never heard of "AirDosh" so if implementing the alternative mentione in the doc is worth their effort for ROI.
Not as customer forced but trade-off should be made based on their resource availability
My point is that @pluc comments suggests too specific and I wanted that his examples break down in different levels of expertise.
Nothing I mentioned deals with disposability of engineers.
Understanding should come in different levels abstraction of what you are building,and managing.
There are different levels SREs, from beginner to say Fellow level.
Do you expect the Fellow level to understand nitty gritty details of each component his apps or services are interacting with and how each of them start? No. Especially when they have to deal with hundres or thousands of services each of them hosted by different teams, orgs, or different companies.
junior SREs, yeah probably got their hands dirty with those nitty gritty details you listed because they tend to deal with smaller or lower levels of components
So my point is, I agree withyour "Understanding" but not specific details as they differ per one's level of experience
e.g. NotebookLLM was one that got me interested in Google's ecosystem. It was easy to use and explain even to my parents.
Now, their models (and NoteBookLLM merging to Gemini, making it extremely hard for non-tech people and other stuff) release very slowly, their models lie their ass off, very politically skewed, etc.
I never use any google models for any agent work any more, in case they block me.
Started migrating gdrive, and gmail to other providers at this point after horror stories in HN, that they lost access to their gmails, etc.
AGY never even update often, and only has gemini 3.8 flash (for Google model).
I used to defend Google's models months ago, but switched to Luna for less intelligent models.
But with this bs of not making it even public, pushing off release of newer models late, I lost faith in Google.
As an example, Linux distros say, Ubuntu got its project "names" as well as SEMVERs. But people rarely use project names but uses versions.
You tell me, I use "Jammy Jellyfish". I will be like WTF dood. You tell me 22.04 LT (which is one I use), oh yeah, that's a good one.
Same thing here. companies can call whatever SOTA whatever they want. But in the end people will refer to them as just Gemini 4 or Ultr/Pro/Lite however people like to use.
Just leave it to company's discretion. Don't enforce anything. People will figure out how to call it.

And wtf, a peaseant?
I use your so-stupidly-called ultra/med/lite but in diff situations, and when I use lite that doesn't mean I am peasant, I am being sensible
I regret ever using X/Emacs for 5 years with two reasons.
The biggest reason is, I have arthritis on my left pinky thanks to Emacs. Now I need to use an expensive ergo keyboards (thumb for ctrls)
The second reason being, vi is what I am forced to use for many linux default editors. I never learned it, and always look up google for commands.
(optionally, extending Emacs is pain as I never understood the point of lisp).
I am more interested in how to make consistent "participants" and "environment" with multiple clips so they look like one longer clip.
Will that require same dev/coding harness and spec-kit-like engineering flow?
Like create a spec on how a movie will look like, feed contexts, create tasks so that multiple clips look congruent?
Some I do not really agree, as reputable firms != trustworthy polls.
e.g. Check out Times magainzes "Best Inventions of the Year, John Termus" (https://time.com/collection/best-inventions/2026/apple-iphon...) wtf is that. Time magazine might be "reputable" but whatever they discuss is not trustworthy given Appl duo being crap.
Right and supposedly middle (this doesn't exist) media does the same.
That means we gotta find the average as you suggested.

Side note
> Given that Musk has absolutely destroyed the Twitter API for academic use
Why bring up Musk, when you can simply say, "Twitter lowered Academic API rate limit because ...". You sound like you need someone to blame not professional and politically motivated (yes the post is about the political poll but this shows the "bias" and his supposed poll will be biased depending on how he gathered data).
Twitter would have the same way of generating metrics for the justification as you are trying to justify the flaw in the poll outcome.
Most likely the decision is based on their internal metrics/dashboard report
and you put words outta my mouth with your comment.
If you did that on purpose, you brought up whataboutism.
- I aint playing your game diverting attention from my comment.
The article states three reasons for doing so, but all of them are very cringe baity words.
Low paid workers are due to local economy government doing jack to improve their wages in the first place. In China, competition is high, thus low pay (with other reasons such as real estate crashes, etc)
Visualization makes sense but does not mean it's colonialism as colonialism requires forced intervention, and there is no such play here.
Cool project bad political motivated wordings in the post.
I don't want to spend even tiniest amount of time for CSS or spend few cents with AI for it either.
This is similar to badly designed sites make you click more than once to get a job done while once click is enough. (as It'd force me to style around his crappy site)
I see someone posted justification of his decisions for such crappy site but I do not agree and ...
had an exact same visceral reaction as if I checked "trypophobia" related pics.
