Cool! I wish there was a way to print boards for hobby purposes. What is the lowest price you would work with? Ballpark

I genuinely think this is a good idea if implemented well and there is a human backup. I’ve had 911 not answer before. I’ve called for things that I wasn’t 100% sure are valid. As …

Yes, that is the really compelling thing here IMO. Its a viable deepseek competitor for many people, and I missed that on the first pass.

This is a nice release and a solid improvement over Spark 1.1. It compares favorably with Grok 4.5. Not SOTA, but solid releases. I think they need to really get this more competit…

I thought it was a typo, or strange url at first.

Curious why you support unions in general? It’s kind of like saying “I support governments” or “I support companies”.

If Luna hadn't price dropped yesterday it would have been a real blowout.

Yes part of the legal defense used to good effect is that they are copying one for one (not really making a copy but rather converting it). I agree with many in this thread that co…

Gemini 3.1 pro is really good for knowledge tasks. Google has done well there. And image analysis with Gemini flash 3.6 is solid. It’s just anything coding or agentic they fall sho…

There is a expiring soon 50% boost to your usage limits, so I think its 2.7x not 4x what you are seeing right now. I think, but its convoluted :)

Nothing is free. We want both low cost and high quality healthcare. This means we need to have ways in incentivize innovation (AI diagnostics, robotic procedures, drug discovery, d…

My 2 cents, all these high level videos kind of suck, even the professional ones, when they don’t show the product. Even videos I produce for this purpose! I don’t think this is th…

Incredible. This is definitely the launch of the day. Just crushing Google's releases. The pricing here is incredible. This is the first US release that's competitive with DeepSeek…

Wow, Laguna S 2.1 (released today) just destroys Flash-Lite underly and completely. What a weak and embarrasing release from Google.

Maybe, but they said they have “started” the Gemini 4 pretrain. So not having done any significant pretrain in a year or so seems odd to me.

3.6 Flash would be a great model at 3.0 flash pricing. At this pricing, its thoroughly trounced by about 10 models on cost/performance including Grok 4.5. 3.5 Flash-ite would be a …

The issue is not investment at all, we want more investment into housing. But you are absolutely correct you cannot both want housing to be a good investment (increase in value fas…

I am generally for a light government touch, but I think excessive light and sound are forms of pollution and should be generally regulated in a not-overly burdensome way (give peo…

I counted the other day and there were at least 12 different providers with "better than Opus 4.5 performance" on Artificial Analysis, Opus 4.5 being Anthropic's December release t…

I’m not categorically against bans of this kind but I’m pretty sure everyone knows these are fake. I am worried about freedom of speech slippery slope issues, and also San Francisc…

I actually think a reasonable strategy of Google is to focus on biotech, where the demand for compute is infinite, and focus on cost effective solutions with really good search for…

This paints everyone as right or left, which I don’t find accurate or helpful. I think other labels even if they meant the same category, to be more helpful.

I don’t know if it’s a great business model but it makes perfect sense to me. Open models when fine tuned are capable at better than frontier performance at a fraction of the price…
