    Sometimes you are forced to use it - e.g. Bun in Claude Code. I like Opus models, but can't run them outside of Claude Code/Bun in subscription models.

    Why not just change ownership then? I'd bet some people would be interested to pay some money for that...

    I’d really suggest to run Claude Code in a sandbox! Anthropic can’t be trusted. I run it on Mac with sandbox-exec. No access to AWS, database, pretty much just files in the current…

    It happened to me today. I was reading agent's answer and it asked me something. I didn't even get to the question - it accepted something! Jesus Christ. Where are the software eng…

    Love the car, Toyota rocks with these GR cars (Corolla, Yaris). Mods are also super cool!

    Feels like the seventies. Remember the time when tobacco CEO-s sweared, that they didn’t know cigarettes are unhealthy?

    Give them a bottle of scotch and pack of cigarettes as well.

    Anyone still be able to trust Bun? It looks like piece of garbage to me. Doesn’t even offer much compared to node or deno.

    Can you be competitive with DUV? They are pushing it to the limit, but will it make sense?

    China still doesn’t have EUV. How will they make competitive chips? Is TSMC allowed to make them?

    Anywhere else in the world it’s possible to do this orders of magnitude cheaper. But yes, it’s because of “options” and not because of greed. Some group of people tries to extract …

    I expected an article about resetting an Xbox device.

    I want only their model, the rest is just garbage. I used Opus with pi.dev, worked perfectly fine. Fast and does exactly what it needs to do. Claude Code is slow, sluggish, buggy. …

    That’s exactly what I mean as well. Of course behind startups the basic idea is to innovate. But this gets lots, because most of people just want to make money. VC-s don’t care abo…

    It’s very simple. Everbody just wants to make money. Startups have nothing to do with innovation or making the world a better place. It feels like it’s about creating the bubble, i…

    You have to think longer term. Today’s 1Gbit is tomorrow’s 25GBit. It takes some time to actually install it. So, better to plan for the future.

    The article didn’t say free market is bad in general, it said it doesn’t work for internet infrastructure.

    “America is best country in the world” thinking is very visible from the comments. Yeah, it has super bad internet, but because it’s too big, Europe installed copper wires later, 2…

    Free in a sense that I don't have to pay extra for it (comes with the machine) and no extra fee for new versions either.

    It's also interesting to see that after 30 years Windows NT is still a decent OS/kernel. Of course the rest of Windows is just pure garbage.

    It's hard to justify to pay for an operating system, when Linux and Mac OS is for free.

    Oh yeah - typical American thinking behind it. Everybody knows English and only uses one language.
