I am a HUGE herdr fan - discovered it a few months ago and it's exactly what I need for my workflow. Thousands of others have discovered it as well, which is awesome. I have such m…

Can you elaborate a bit on what you're trying to get to work?

I hate that you're right, but you're right. Twitter and HN can scream and yell as loud as they want but the fact is, enterprises are going to use Fable via API and pay the bills. I…

It's usable for coding and code auditing. The classifier will have some false-positives and some tasks will be downgraded to 4.8 if it's security-adjacent (I presume), but otherwis…

Dario Amodei (Anthropic's CEO) had previously been directly liaising with the government and apparently it wasn't going well.

Here's a copy of the letter that Commerce sent to Anthropic (note who it'a NOT addressed to...) Source: https://x.com/AndrewCurran_/status/2072103733715194048?s=20 ------- June 30,…

I'll take it one step further - we have a 2-year-old toddler and recently I realized that I was spending a full, solid, real 1-1.5 hours per day doing the same kitchen & play area …

I’ve read so many stories like this that I’ve actually gotten scared of making PRs open source projects. There’s one in particular where a feature I really wanted didn’t exist, so …

Totally fair point!

We're in this weird in-between phase of the tech world where projects like this can now be put together in a few hours/days, but the audience of us HN folk are still trained on the…

I'm guessing a lot of similar debates were had in the 1970s when we first started compiling C to Assembly, and I wonder if the outcome will be the same. (BTW: I was not around then…

Their best model to date and they won’t let the general public use it. This is the first moment where the whole “permanent underclass” meme starts to come into view. I had through …

This has been a fallacy for as long as businesses have been built, and it will still be a fallacy in the AI era. Ideas are cheap and don't need to be protected. Your taste, executi…

A close friend who was born with way more candor than I has made fighting this scourge his life's mission and I love him for it. He has no shame about calling people out. He will w…

I dunno. I've been reading a lot of "screw 'em" comments re: the deprecation of 4o and I agree there's some serious cases of AI psychosis going on with the people who are hooked, b…

I pay $200/month, don’t come near the limits (yet), and if they raised the price to $1000/month for the exact same product I’d gladly pay it this afternoon (Don’t quote me on this …

Or the same number of tokens in less time. Kinda feels like the CPU / modem wars of the 90s all over again - I remember those differences you felt going from a 386 -> 486 or from a…

amen!

Also a very good question and the answer is also...it depends. The "premium" (delta to spot) on 90% silver (aka "90%") varies with supply and demand. At this very moment with the m…

A very excellent question and totally reasonable thing not to know (congrats on being one of today's lucky 10,000!) I'm speaking from the perspective of US coins because that's wha…

Chances are, he was indeed jerking you around. Nearly every one of these traveling road show style buyers pay very very very very little for coins. They have no reputation to uphol…

Noticed the exact same thing a few days ago. So much so that I went on twitter and HN to search for “claude speed boost” to see if there was a known new release. Felt like the time…

This is so completely spot on. It’s happening in other fields too, particularly non-coding (but still otherwise specialized or technical) areas. AI is extremely empowering but what…

Gotcha. Thanks for sharing, and I'm truly sorry you had to deal with that :(
