    I gave it a test spin. Half an hour and the 5 hour usage cap was hit in Claude Code. Not what I would expect on the Max 20x usage plan. I am sure it is great, but at this rate I wo…

    This is similar to building a React SPA and complaining that Google can't index it. LLMs will use your website anyway. You're just choosing whether to pay the cost in structured en…

    No, commenters here simply take into account that predictions markets have historically classified themselves as futures markets and not as gambling. Allowing information asymmetry…

    I am guessing there will be an OpenClaw "competitor" targeting Enterprise within the next 1-2 months. If OpenAI, Anthropic or Gemini are fast and smart about it they could grab som…

    If this is about military capability, why ban all foreign manufacturers, including proven innovators like Helsing and Baykar? Instead of blanket bans, targeted contracts could leve…

    That is exactly what you never want to do under protectionist policies. Domestic producers are shielded from Chinese competitors. This means they are under less pressure to reduce …

    I started learning the guitar years ago, but lost motivation once I got into university. Maybe I'll give it another shot and use this as a refresher on the theory! Anyway, one smal…

    Out of curiosity, what made you pivot from a web/translation editor to recovering stripe payments? Was it primarily because of the teams prior experience in payment recovery or som…

    As much as I like SEPA it is primarily for bank transfers. The way that payments work through SEPA is that the merchant pulls the money from your account. Legally they require a "m…

    Vibe coding by itself isn't a problem. The problem is vibe coding AND negligence. Good software practices like testing, code review, documentation are bound to catch the LLM-isms. …

    When you look at the market with a zero-sum perspective it becomes apparent that both active and passive investors earn average market returns - collectively they by definition are…

    That's a common pattern in trading strategies with negative skews or tail risks. Even large hedge funds, like LTCM, can fall into this same pitfall. For anyone interested, I can re…

    Interesting question, here are my few cents. Exports are more "expensive" for countries with reserve currency status. This is a problem for countries that export many primary and "…

    I get it that "click here" is not descriptive, but so is simply linking "Amaya". What is it? A person? A fruit? People don't read websites linearly, in the best case they skim read…

    From an economic perspective it requires LLMs and humans to have comparable outputs. That's not possible in all domains - at least in the near future.

    I recently got a new laptop and had to setup my IDE again. After a couple hours of coding something felt "weird" - turns out I forgot to login to GitHub Copilot and I was working w…

    I have been interested in algorithmic trading for quite a while now. Everything you've said resonates with me as I ran into similar issues. I hope you don't mind that I add my own …

    Absolute beginners usually don't even know how to ask proper questions. LLMs can help you in that regard... they'll answer your questions and provide you an answer no matter how tr…

    On iOS there's also Beorg [1], which I used briefly. The problem that org-mode and Markdown face is that they are fairly minimal. It's common to use plugins, that aren't supported …

    The pattern hasn't changed in decades. Remember when ZTE copied Cisco's router code so precisely they included the same bugs and documentation typos? LLMs are a drop on a hot stone…

    Before settling on Electron, I recommend exploring Tauri. It's more lightweight, it's better with sandboxing and it allows dropping down to Rust when performance is critical.
