I don't necessarily buy that API prices represent "real" prices of the models.

I don't want to host my code on a platform that has activist goals beyond open source advocacy, but I'm glad it exists because it's a useful filter, like the X/Bluesky divide.

Can someone explain to me the difference between this approach and using planning with a larger model, then just switching to a small model for implementation without clearing the …

You're in for a great deal of pain in the coming years.

Nasal phenylephrine is a miracle when I am trying to sleep with a stopped up nose. A spray in each nostril and my nose is clearer than even normal within a few minutes.

Bitcoin is so dead that jamesob is posting about AI.

Too late, damage is already done. We have been on the wrong timeline for years at this point.

SpaceX is planning to do data centers in orbit. Engineering issues aside, that might dovetail with Cursor nicely if timings work out.

It's a good question, but Iran has a new weapon now: The Strait of Hormuz. Maybe that's enough leverage that they retain that they will stop their nuclear program for a while.

Iran gained international credibility by adhering strictly to the JCPOA, even long after the Trump admin broke it. I doubt they will squander that by not adhering to whatever deal …

The readme says it's 88,000 lines of "hand-written" C, and yet there's only 41 commits all from the last day, and they're all co-authored by Claude. I have no problem with AI code,…

All of those are within range of Iranian missiles and drones. The only ways out of this are total war or final settlement giving Iranian favorable terms.

Truly amazing times. Just doing things has never been easier, and it has really reinvigorated me.

Maybe Ghostty will follow Zig to Codeberg, but it doesn't seem like a fit to me.

OSS is increasingly bisecting into two camps, and you can tell which camp they are in depending on whether their developers use X or Mastodon/Bluesky.

My brain is so cooked that I saw “M 7.4” and the first thing I thought was, “Which model is that?”

They are heavily invested in Bitcoin and still offer and improve their Bitcoin services. It’s not really “blockchain.” They’re not a crypto company. They are ideologically dedicate…

MiniMax has an incredibly affordable coding plan for $10/month. It has a rolling five hour limit of 100 prompts. 100 prompts doesn't sound like much, but in typical AI company acco…

They abandoned Swift recently.

This is depressing because we will go to war over this and it’s going to be five years before people realizing they were tricked by “babies in incubators” propaganda.

This is obviously AI to everyone but the most gullible people imaginable. However, this is becoming more and more common and we should really crack down on it before it completely …

Cashu is a working chaumian ecash protocol built on Bitcoin. It is quite functional and has some subset of bitcoiners actually using with, with many wallets and mints building on t…

So, I was part of the Nostr community for quite a while and was the author of a popular Nostr extension for Safari, before eventually giving up on Nostr for various reasons. I have…

I've been a ruby user for almost 15 years. I've been to several RubyConfs in that time. I have never found that to be true. It's a thin veneer over rampant toxicity and political e…

I never looked up the origin of the name before. Interestingly enough, I associate Bellingcat with permanent cold warriors, a group of people who seem determined to fulfill the mor…
