I understand. So don't use them. There are plenty of OS alternatives

What are you talking about. You think service providers can backdoor aes-gcm? There will always be technology that they cannot get around. The only way to backdoor is to explicitly…

There are ways to do it correctly. You just end up spending a lot of time conceptualizing and refining abstractions. To me the issue is more that conceptualizing requires a certain…

They will most certainly cut subscription access, same as Anthropic. It is inevitable that they will go down the same lockin+squeeze route. I unsubscribed from Claude a couple of w…

Yeah that also sounds realistic, and actually there's evidence of this dulling effect from even before llms. The attention economy has been literally streamlining.. well, the road …

Agree on the knock-on effects. My prediction is deflation. Money will be worth more and more. As a consequence governments will have to step in to ensure inflation(with e.g. univer…

What's the point of that? That sounds like the most boring life. You want to rot away on a yacht? Private chef? Are you kidding? Help family? Sure, although you don't need that muc…

My point was that there isn't anything I could do with that money, and neither can the vast majority of people in the world. So I would immediately try to pass it on to people who …

Nonsense. What the hell would you do with 1B? Give it to charities maybe. Maybe set up an investment where dividends are paid to charity. Running out of ideas

That's.. not even close to being the case. It's literally a series of ambiguous questions and strategic decisions. Non-ambiguous is like a first semester algorithms class in univer…

I guess the new "Code's compiling!" is "Claude's lunching!"

Getting consistent 500s for any api call

It's to prevent distillation. Duh

It's because of simple FOMO of companies. If they don't "invest" in it they will be left behind. Which is true. However, the way they invest is equally (if not more) important. E.g…

Regret? Of what? The tech is here. You won't slow it down by not using it. People need to either adapt by moving to more and more niche areas, or become the person to be retained w…

It's failing when there is no data in the training set, and there are no patterns to replicate in the existing code base. I can give you many, many examples of where it failed for …

Nope. Especially with these agents the thinking trace can get very large. No human will ever read it, and the agent will fill up their context with garbage trying to look for infor…

This is a terrible idea

Yes that's the idea. The expansion simply means that the window of migration will close. Once it's closed, your galaxy is cut off and will run out of fuel sooner than the high-dens…

There's a fun hypothesis I've read about somewhere, goes something like this: As the universe expands the gap between galaxies widens until they start "disappearing" as no informat…

Perhaps the out of job prediction is actually reversed. True, LLMs will become an efficiency increasing tool. But in terms of job security, doesn't that mean that if your whole job…

> Maybe when AIs are able to say: "I don't know how this works" or "This doesn't work like that at all." they will be more helpful. Funny you say that, I encountered this in a seem…

I have the same experience and still use it. It's just that I learned to use it for simplistic work. I sometimes try to give it more complex tasks but it keeps failing. I don't thi…

Interesting. I've had it fail on much simpler tasks. Example: was writing a flatbuffers routine which translated a simple type schema to fbs reflection schema. I was thinking well …

Exact same experience. Here's what I find Claude Code (Opus) useful for: 1. Copy-pasting existing working code with small variations. If the intended variation is bigger then it fa…
