This is not super on topic, but ANW is the US version of the Japanese TV show Sasuke, which is itself inspired by the Adventure Zone segment on Takeshi's Castle. So, yes, it is con…

> popular culture is much more fractured now into lots of small scenes That's definitely a big part of it. But popular culture is also set up differently now where a different kind…

They are actually selling really well. But sadly, they are selling because you can drill out the 'recording' indicator light and use them to secretly record people to make creepy T…

The article is cool, and it is fun to build a custom version - just sharing a little more info on this. They've had this feature out of the box on a few Bambu models for quite a wh…

Anthropic's own frontend-design skill attempts to do that. You can install it in Claude Code, or you can tweak it to be closer to your own style: https://github.com/anthropics/clau…

This is such an interesting case because all sides are talking past each other and it doesn't really fit the pattern of past vendor lock-in / open source scandals. It's nuanced. Em…

I looked into it seriously at one point. Essentially, you are adding another zero to the cost to have hidden solar. A 20k solar install becomes a 200k+ solar roof install. Even if …

> every interaction is now laced with ulterior motives like op trying to pitch himself as ai expert to sell his courses or whatever. He is apparently going around blowing executive…

On the same topic but from a slightly different angle - as SOTA models get more capable, the 'quality' and 'feel' of the experience they provide in each domain is heavily dependent…

Have you tried the latest DeepSeek v4 Pro inside of the Claude Code harness? It's not listed in that site. It definitely 'feels like' it is as good as Claude for many regular web a…

You are assuming like 12 things that aren't true in this response.

I don't know, there's been some pretty bad software mistakes, possibly bigger than a PR to convert an app to Rust: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therac-25

These are largely friends and peers, so they ultimately own their own risks. But I'm not saying it is good or bad. I'm just telling you what is happening in the real world. Every s…

> that makes claude code or codex accessible to the average user That's what they aim Claude Cowork at. Every executive/leader I've shown Claude Cowork to has gone from 'what is AI…

It's weird to read an article about how AI is ruining Lake Tahoe, with a map illustrating the problem, when the map itself has the world's most generic "100% generated by Claude" U…

All these companies want to make money eventually to justify their "technology company" valuations, show growth to keep expensive employees excited about stock options, etc. But th…

Sorry if I wasn't as specific as possible: > The dollar's global value has also weakened noticeably since (checks notes) the global financial world reordering that happened in earl…

> it's a far worse idea when you're a lesser economic power Exactly. Japan has held its interest rates at almost zero for years (currently 0.75%) while the US is at 3.5% and has be…

Right, it started dropping when the current administration was inaugurated, directly because of the party's promise to enact immediate tariffs. And it continued to drop sharply lea…

First, Japan doesn't make the Switch in Japan. They are made in Vietnam and China. So having a weak local currency isn't super helpful. Second, the largest price increase is for th…

DRAM prices increase everywhere, so it should affect the worldwide market in the same way. But Nintendo is raising prices mostly in Japan. Japan's local currency devaluation is mor…

This is a large price rise in domestic (Japanese) markets, with a small rise in other countries. This is impacting Japanese consumers the most. Nintendo is a very Japanese-centric,…
