Serving 2+ billion daily users is a technical challenge at least

Stunning

[I’ll show myself out]

Trust is maybe the most valuable commodity for a VPN provider… And I have the feeling Proton is gambling it away.

It made me move to Mullvad.

Despite the fact that in terms of performance Proton is slightly better. (underscoring just *how* crucial ‘trust’ is)

> I didn’t claim that eclecticlight writes cheap dunk

Thanks - then we agree (also on the part of the argumentation about macOS being a certified UNIX OS)

Eclecticlight and ‘cheap dunk’ ?

No.

This site is a class of its own, in quality of discussions, in quality of software, and in dedication… many years long, consistent quality

I assume that’s for the development phase, not (necessarily) for apps developed with Skip

I remember that demo - thanks for the nostalgic flash back!

So much for ‘stochastic parrots’

The editor can be online - persistence is primarily local - that makes sense

The settings icon ‘sprouting’ cogs is really nice!

The editor also looks really nice. Could this not be used online as well? Persistence on the server instead of browser cache? (Curious what your use case is for an offline browser based editor?)

If the point was triggering a reply, the length and sarcasm certainly worked.

I agree brevity is always preferred. Making a good point while keeping it brief is much harder than rambling on.

But length is just a measure, quality determines if I keep reading. If a comment is too long, I won’t finish reading it. If I kept reading, it wasn’t too long.

You do understand that one of those “needs”affects others around you, and one of them leaves them in peace, right? Also I’m sure parent wasn’t referring to emergency calls

Thanks - the OP’s site was a truly horrible experience

I firmly believe @threethirtytwo’s reply was not produced by an LLM

I just tried Cowork.... It crashed with "Claude Code process terminated by signal SIGKILL".

Is Cowork Claude-Code-but-with-sandbox ?

When local compute is more efficient data may remain local (e.g. when asking it to "find duplicate images" in millions of images it will likely (hopefully) just compute hashes and compare those), but complete folder contents are just as likely to be ingested (uploaded) and considered "Inputs", for which even the current Privacy Policy already explicitly says these will be "collected" (even when opting-out of allowing subsequent use for training).

To be clear: I like what Anthropic is doing, they appear more trustworthy/serious than OpenAI, but Cowork will result in millions of unsuspecting users having complete folders full of data uploaded and persisted on servers, currently, owned by Anthropic.

So when using Cowork on a local folder and asking it to "create a new spreadsheet with a list of expenses from a pile of screenshots", those screenshots may[*] become part of the "collected Inputs" kept by Anthropic.

[*]"may" because depending on the execution, instead of directly uploading the screenshots, a (python) script may be created that does local processing and only upload derived output

That an LLM needs input tokens to produce output was understood. That is not what the privacy policy is about. To me the policy reads Anthropic also subsequently persists (“collects”) your data. That is the point I was hoping to get clarified.

Thanks - would you have a source for this confirmation?

100% on board. This would be a paradigm shift for cloud services.

(And take away a, for many significant, source of income - data they can sell, train on, etc - So I’m afraid the incentive to research an implement it will be lacking)

Make a kind remark, get down voted? Why?

Claude operate this patient Claude build my kitchen Claude produce a billion mobile phones

I know managers think this is all there is to “work”, but at some point someone need do those action items.

According to Anthropic’s privacy policy you collect my “Inputs” and “If you include personal data … in your Inputs, we will collect that information”

Do all files accessed in mounted folders now fall under collectable “Inputs” ?

If you don’t mind the terminal, what is the benefit of Cowork over Code? The sandboxing?

That is the only implementation I can think of that might make me trust a third party with confidential data. Of course these massive transformers are already insanely computer intensive and adding FHE would make that orders of magnitude worse.

‘Actively hostile’ as in objecting to your content getting ripped off without permission?

I’m glad to hear it’s helping you keep the costs down - that’s positive. It’s the type of popup that triggers my allergy - which as allergies go is mostly my problem.
