Have never seen 27-7, as someone in rest-of-world

I have been thinking about the difference between 'consumption' and 'creation' style hobbies lately. Spending time drinking different coffee beans, or collecting sneakers, I would …

I agree with this wholeheartedly! Even something a small as fixing up some horrific diverged orphaned git history can help me on a hobby project. And the fact that I see the comman…

Would love this as an audio visualizer

I've found in (EU) academia at least that people essentially lie about how much work they do. In anglosphere it's far more common for people to be open/expectant of 80 hour weeks e…

> A possibly complementary take is that maybe mediums also just... have shelf lives? Like, if there's been no innovation in radio dramas or still life paintings of flowers or super…

More inference = more cost (to Anthropic)

It appears [0] there is now a fix/workaround (?) [0] https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode-anthropic-auth/pull/11

I doubt you can opt out

Oh you mean literally claude code, not some hack like opencode? I guess that makes sense yeah, given the tmux interface.

There's just not that much IP in a UI like that. Every day we get articles on here that you can make an agent in 200 LOCs, Yegge's gas town in 2 weeks, etc. Training the model is t…

I guess one issue is that you pay $200/month whether you use it or not. Potentially this could be better for Anthropic. What was not necessarily foreseeable (ok maybe it was) back …

Is it that it's the best coding tool or the best model? I still get the best (most accurate) results out of anthropic models (but not out of CC).

Yeah fair, I could've chosen better words. My conclusion is: "I don't want to pay for that", not "they shouldn't be able to do that".

Unsure of the other competition, but I can vouch for synthetic.new's subscription for GLM (+ other open models). Note quite as accurate as Anthropic's models but good enough for ba…

IDK if Anthropic wants to offer a service at below cost, I don't think they should gate keep which client you access that service over. Or in other terms, I won't use a service tha…

Maybe Anthropic saw Yegge's gas town concept and got scared off?

> My very personal opinion is bureaucracy, fat bureaucracy, damned bureaucracy, expensive bureaucracy: believing you can have a better world by regulations IS stupid, and so on... …

recutils is aimed at database rather than config use-cases

Statistical algorithms always make more concrete assumptions of the signal. DFT / Fourier transforms are great as they are a direct mathematical operation, that maps neatly to (bas…
