    They disabled Postgres parallelism to benchmark too. Sigh.

    Comment #49214500

    I cloned it. The 6000 commits are the problem, not the defense. 5,940 commits, one author, 29 days. 5,067 of them, 85%, have a `Co-Authored-By: Claude` trailer. Busiest day is 1,39…

    The project has 2 commits. 2. Commit #1's message is "hey claude, do a breakthrough" from a week ago and is 1.5M lines. Commit #2 is "blog post" from 4 days ago. My head is spinnin…

    Im a bit daft today, getting over strep throat, and this went over my head: is an equivalent to this “Yes, but it’s scary because it might turn from automating voice to no more hum…

    > Just automate a voice for that and ask them that while they're on hold / when the system first picks up. Is this criteria satisfied if we swap the titular “AI” with our inoffensi…

    My $0.000002: You dont need a study to know delegating task X can make you worse at task X, nor do you need one to know its vacuously true and avoidable.

    Are you using Kimi w/expectation of ZDR? Their EULA is “we use your data and train on it unless you negotiate something with us privately”

    What is “it”, of those 3? The last one?

    Shaders compiled at startup vs. not, not “who knows why a repaint is happening”

    It’s a seductive idea, but it displaces who is responsible for the poor framework development onto users of the framework. It’s easy to say they were just trying to be trendy and t…

    FWIW, looking at pricing myself, it needs to 5x the tokens to get the same results as GPT 5.6 Luna at a much lower TPS. (doesn't obviate the fact that the pressure causes incumbent…

    Billions of AI capex for a model that’s consistently forgettable and space computers, presumably data centers in space, are funding SpaceX? Isn’t the opposite? SpaceX has an extrem…

    I really do appreciate the effort but the data doesn’t reflect current conditions, and it’s falsified given it’s been virtually closed for months, certainly the same as 30% through…

    If we’re prioritizing accuracy: no, that’s not what happened - the blog post about it found by guessing URLs, no access to it was obtained by guessing URLs. Similarly, as long as I…
