    Chrono Divide is insane. It is wild to see a single dev completely leapfrog every other team that spent years making RTS engines.

    > No him/her No trans employees? What does that mean? No advocating for yourself at all? No unions? You are ghoulish

    Technical procedural issues don't become "emotional reasons" because you hand-wave them away. This sounds like volunteering other peoples time.

    I agree. I don't see why something getting more competition and plummeting costs is going to get significantly worse. Meta being Meta is not the strongest argument.

    You are super positive that transformers can't become AGI, wow. Care to explain how atoms _can_ become AGI?

    The Hash-anchor edit guy! Sincerely great idea, I used it in my own toy harness to good effect. I just checked this out, never tried it before, and its great! Clearly a well-iterat…

    We tried to vote for normal 21st century healthcare and the billionaires spammed race-baiting nonsense and backed an unconstitutional fascist to shut it down. They gutted peaceful …

    Man, its hard not to have a reaction to another BaaS. Every "pricing" page really goes to show that engineering took a backseat to rent-seeking. There is an incentive to take advan…

    Sure, yeah, I saw grubhub happen too... but this is compute, not cookies. It gets cheaper. I don't even get what "skeptical of AI" means. We made AI, many companies reliably teach …

    I don't see why tokens/$ would suddenly stop dropping. Maybe this is the first time the cost of compute will plateau, but do have any reason to think so?

    That isn't true. In a Codex or Claude Code instance, sure... but those are not the main users of APIs. If you are using LLMs in a service for customers, costs matter.

    Dwarkesh was ready to whitewash Elon the day after his Epstein emails came out. None of them should be taken seriously.

    You'll find anti-capitalists are anti-capitalists whether the number is red or green.

    Prompting LLMs for code simply takes more than a couple of weeks to learn. It takes time to get an intuition for the kinds of problems they've seen in pre-training, what environmen…

    Not quite. They have 128GB of ram that can be allocated in the BIOS, up to 96GB to the GPU.

    I had no idea games were already compelling players to use these features. The user-controlled client is rapidly going away.

    I was blown away when I realized I could stream mjpeg from a raspberry pi camera with lower latency and less ceremony than everything I tried with webrtc and similar approaches.
