If it's open then there will be multiple providers. I see it is on OpenRouter now.

I tried this also. I was wanting to arrange a piece for jazz band. It had good advice, from a textual standpoint, but the lilypond music very rarely made sense unless I asked it fo…

Is there a link to a non-broken website? This one continuously resizes itself, which makes it very hard to read.

Sorry, but I'd be dead without mine. I'm going to have to disagree with you.

Scent sensitivity is a real, and ADA protected, disability. Why do I have to have an asthma attack or a migraine because someone has to express themselves through chemical warfare?…

We solved this a long time ago with crypto. Just sign everything.

Why not Delphi? And why not Lazarus?

It seems like AI will generate opportunities for fixing code. Both in reducing internal technical debt ("code maintenance", which is a specialized skill already) and external techn…

The US Treasury and currency aren't important?

U.S. Treasury bills underpin the financial systems of the world, but most especially that of the United States. This is an ELE for the US.

Bureaucracy is there to protect us from people like Trump and Elon. Congress can pass laws and the president can issue orders. This action threatens the US financial system, which …

I'm sorry, but reason magazine has personally made my life difficult by participating in medical gaslighting. There may be something to some of this, but I'm not inclined to trust …

Does it cause you problems in work or life? Then yes. If you don't know the answer then maybe it's worth trying for a while to see how it goes. Beware, though, the first few weeks …

The thing that seems to be missed here is that passive aggression is a perfectly valid way to deal with direct and immature aggression, such as you get with personality disorders. …

Yet another clickbait title. Correlation is not causation.

The basic idea is sound. But the majority of the examples are strangely politically biased and in my experience they are things I've never heard from the 1%.

This is exactly right. And codeless tends to not have the capability of dealing with complexity very well, meaning architecture is brittle.

I'll just sit over here with my multiple chemical sensitivities that are somehow "controversial". How asthma and migraines can be controversial I'll never know. But those jerks in …

Why can't we just come out and say that the agent / capital model is consumer antagonistic and work on fixing it? This is just a symptom, the cause needs to be addressed by the leg…

There are so many things left unsaid, but implied, in this post. I love it.

It's pretty easy to say "terminal based" or "text mode" instead of CLI, which is misleading. I was expecting an alternative to sed.

I agree, in general, with the point of the article. But why does everybody have to make fun of Biden's speech issues (Stuttering)? That's a pretty low blow, bro.
