    Reddit,even oracle forums, 99% complaints about free stuff not being available. It's why people don't offer this more regularly - instead of people being gracious it's like they're…

    It's a negative product line, even half is still negative. People really need to start being grateful while whoring free services....

    It was communicated beginning the middle of June but it's taken them a couple of months to get round to actually doing it - it's not at all reasonable to criticise given the offeri…

    The A1 has been available for 6 years without a rug pull or reductions until now on a very overly generous offering - whatever you think of oracle, it's something else. My instance…

    Idiot majority does not make it correct. But that page makes it absolutely clear that apparently nobody understands how PPP actually works (hint: addressing is not PPP)

    There is really so much failure in this post: crappy vendor, misunderstanding how PPP actually works (it requires no addressing at all), using "half bridge" (idiot term) instead of…

    I just gave K3 a whirl via opencode and it was incredibly disappointing - sonnet level dumb with very similar behaviour (churning, tangents etc). It couldn't figure out a very simp…

    This caught my eye not because of shady behaviour like that, it's expected. But the date is injected and it still gets the current date wrong.

    Interestingly, HN also appears to be Claude. My comment was 5 days ago, along with the post. But now it's showing as 15 hours ago. It still says 5 days on my comments list though. …

    The more pressing question is why plain text authentication, or even a plain text listener was configured to begin with, in 2026 (really, 2016, being generous). STARTTLS is not a v…

    Question is, can it understand dates now? Example just now: "The PO application was filed on 23.2.2026, the day before the custody hearing scheduled for 29.1.2026 had already taken…

    That only works if the market is not controlled by basically 3 vendors and if the market isn't also pretty much impossible to break into. The value proposition is tenuous at best, …

    Saw this and yet... My usage of Claude has tanked (codex is better), but on the occasions I do use it (mostly for non-code), I blow through the 5hr usage super fast. Specifically o…

    With the apparent competence that built Gemini, I have zero faith in Google building or doing anything that works anymore.

    20 years of heavy smoking :) Although it does seem to affect some people more than others for sure, I guess it depends how and what you're smoking.
