    I’m not sure what I need to cite but logically when you’ve paid 1B for a lease up front, you’ll want to recoup that through the money you get paid for the electricity you generate.…

    We need to be careful in not throwing the babies out with the bath water - the fees paid for the leases for these projects were so high that the projects would not be economically …

    I use UniFi Nas Pro - it is just a NAS, not a home server. I have it directly connected to my home server with a 10GB SFP+ link and it works super well.

    Thing is this is a technical justification for something that was done purely to add an extra add break in - there is no point in having the technical discussion. The problem I had…

    I feel like it must be worthwhile for Hashimoto to move on from Ghostty to this. If it is ‘just’ a better tmux-like experience, then that could be very useful if these agentic work…

    I’m guess “all you need is attention” is a good reflection of ourselves as well AI. I’m off anything with an algorithmic feed. My brain can’t handle these. I turn off shorts and Yo…

    There’s no reason to be loyal, but I guess it’s a bit like any tool, once you get used to how one works why would you change to another? There is some stickiness with an LLM + harn…

    It literally is, but people don’t use LLMs to interact with their computers they use touch screens or mouse and a keyboard. This is why I think it will be the platform owners who e…

    You say this like it a bad thing my 90yr old grandmother can use WhatsApp and iCloud Photos - if they can get that demographic using LLMs meaningfully, it probably means they’ve cr…

    This kind of thing just makes me think Apple will get to a point where they have good enough local models and good enough harnesses for doing things, and most normal people will ju…

    I find AI has destroyed it, even the posts by people should know better post fully ai written posts (Major renewable CEOs posting AI slop is very sad). I block the feed and just us…

    Is it possible or desirable to own two competing gaming platforms?

    I feel like the way Asha talks about Xbox owning game studios could also be applied to Microsoft Xbox. Pc gaming and console gaming has never been closer. Is it advantageous to own…

    No one needs Meta AI. They have missed the boat with chatbots / agents / harnesses like Claude Code. Can you picture anyone you know stopping using the AI services they currently u…

    For a period of time - then you go back to opus 4.8 or new sonnet 5.0 like some kind of AI pauper. Shine your shoes for some fable tokens g’vnor.

    I think the issue matters (not us vs china) due to the investment and exposure normal people have to the valuations of the AI companies. It feels like the US govt could make this t…

    Interesting to consider this inline with recent us export bans, could the US be squandering its lead by giving the open source, largely Chinese labs catch up (in terms of model qua…

    Curser is the only possible play to make Grok AI some how useful to enterprise, where the vast majority of spend is / will be? Feels like it could only possibly worth this much to …

    I feel like you are missing the difference between cash out the door and the market cap value of a business. One is a real tangible thing, the other is a function of the stock mark…
