Good news: rolling these facial scans everywhere in the country should lead to dozens of false positives.

So for every trillion that was invested, 100 trillion were made. Got it.

Nothing can be as bad as modern social networks. Unless they start pushing manipulation, brain rot, gambling and porn into each AI answer.

Too much competition from China. They would have bumped the price if it wasn't for the cheap alternatives from every Chinese manufacturer.

90% of countries use some kind of fossil fuel to generate electricity or heat, so burning trash instead won't increase the CO2 emissions. The rule is simple: if you already burn fossil fuels, you should burn trash instead.

Absolutely, but green activists are actively fighting against burning trash. This needs to stop. Even if a country doesn't burn coal it should still burn trash instead of sending it to poor countries. People need to take responsibility for the trash that they generate.

It's actually everywhere. Europe is full of door knobs. We're trying to make sure that everyone touches as many surfaces as possible. Next step would be tongue operated doors and switches.

> According to the book The Thinking Game...

According to me, this is nonsense.

> that's thousands of years of stored water and energy released

You make this sound like it matters whether the water accumulated over 10,000 years or 30 days. It doesn't.

It happened as their user base exploded and their infrastructure could not keep up with all the new demand.

> I have tried to do the same recently with the newer models and we're still not writing code by the time the older models had finished their work

Claude used to run at ~150tps in January. Now it runs at 50tps if you're lucky. That explains most of the speed issues without even getting into technical details about the new models.

> run free LLMs locally at native speed

This reads like a hallucination. What does native speed even mean?

Why not? They probably only offered those deals because of DeepSeek aggressive pricing. Now that DeepSeek is 3x more expensive it's time to revert those discounts.

This is a much more interesting concept than Aptera. Small and affordable car, expandable solar array. Keep it simple.

After looking at the code in the tic tac toe example I am now 100% convinced that I need React.

Don't worry, they pinky promise not to save anything.

He's going to take your comment and give it to Claude as a prompt.

That's modern internet for you.

Why would I set 4.7 to xhigh or max when the original 4.6 was doing just fine with medium and high?

It's because investors in OpenAI/Anthropic want to get their money back in 10 months, not in 10 years.

Token bonanza! Inference sellers love this simple trick.

Absolutely not. That would be crazy.

Make no mistakes.

We currently use vast amounts of land growing corn and other crops specifically for biodiesel. Solar panels produce over 100x more energy per hectare than corn ethanol, even in countries like Denmark with limited sunlight. It makes perfect sense to repurpose some biofuel farmland for solar panels. That's just efficient land use, not an attack on agriculture.

I can't downvote you enough for this comment, but hopefully others will. You're arguing that a device designed for portability is perfect as it is because you're supposed to use external monitors and proper keyboards. This is peak HN/Reddit/"current society", whatever you want to call it.

Hey Claude, rename all these jobs to include AI so that WSJ can write an article about AI creating new jobs.

"Read the Book" button, next gen web UI. That's all you need to know about this one.

By asking it to cite its sources. Whenever I use AI, I have it pull direct quotes from the text to justify its interpretation. Sometimes it's spot on, sometimes it's wrong. But skimming a paper to fact-check a few specific quotes is still vastly faster than reading a dense paper completely blind.

That sure took a lot of work for something that nobody's gonna watch.

> This means llms have not improved in their programming abilities for over a year. Isn’t that wild? Why is nobody talking about this?

Because it's not true. They have improved tremendously in the last year, but it looks like they've hit a wall in the last 3 months. Still seeing some improvements but mostly in skills and token use optimization.
