    Did you also try Opus 5 and 5.6 Sol?

    Same I use models for nearly everything. Google only better at: - fast, even the shitty AI results are nearly instant. - some results like actors in a movie, or where to stream are…

    The newest of those are 20 years old. Let’s be honest. Google was amazing back then, now they’re just an ad-business flailing around in other side quests.

    Producing code is an interesting word because obviously they're not typing code anymore. That's where I've landed. I'm somewhere between 10-60x more productive than I used to be. M…

    All software engineering is over as we know it. I haven't written a line of code since December 2025.

    In the last 20 years, the EU has grown about %1.5. In 2005, the EU accounted for 25% of the global GDP. Now it's about 17%. GDP per capita in the United States is about twice of Eu…

    the quote: "Show me the incentive and I'll show you the outcome" is something that the regulators have never heard. What they see is people burning clothes and they say "we can't d…

    I'm pretty sure they're docking the ship right now.

    The EU is doing everything it can to fail. The only thing that seems to be coming out of the EU in the last 20 years is regulation. It seems to be its only invention and contributi…

    It’s my go to normal stuff. It’s fast, balanced and if you want a better researched response you can click “think harder”

    I'm curious how well it'll work in the real world, but I would be ecstatic if I could ditch all my Whisper apps. - transcribed using MacWhisper.

    This guy has fabricated things in the past, I would take this with a grain of salt.

    I echo this entirely, brother. I think a lot of us developers have a lot of ideas that were unrealized, and now we have this opportunity to do it. And any time an LLM is sitting id…

    The AI-Maxing copy on the website kind of gave it away. Doesn't mean is not a great app though!

    I own a Tesla not a Rivian, but I agree with you here. As a software engineer, I find CarPlay to be a tack-on solution. For that, it works well, but only because the base infotainm…

    It's just the first layer and there are multiple layers underneath this that we don't know about. As a side note, I have a pet theory that one of the reasons that OpenAI and Anthro…

    Same. I asked it my Pac-Man question and it was the first to DNF. It just goes off getting confused about how to design the map for 15 minutes and then times out.

    I gave it my standard: "Make a pac-man game in a single html page" It went off and argued with itself for 20 minutes about how to lay out the map and then timed out.

    I’m a huge fan, I’ve been wanting to know into the internals. Look forward to digging in.

    A lot of the copy also looks like AI. The text (especially the "About" section, key concerns, and Erin’s quote) reads like strong AI-generated or heavily AI-edited copy. It has tha…

    Outside of specialized apps for work, I think ninety-percent of apps will probably go away and become MCP plugins. I would much prefer it.
