Maybe I’m misunderstanding you, but if you scroll to the bottom of their [1] link to the Opus 5 announcement, under “Getting started,” it explicitly says:

> Consistent with prior Opus models, Opus 5 does not have data retention requirements for general access.

Then there’s a misunderstanding here. I have an iPhone. When I open my Messages app and view a conversation with someone with an iPhone, my outbound messages are blue and their messages to me are gray. When I open a conversation with a non-iPhone user, my outbound messages are green and their messages to me are still gray. Are you sure you’ve never received a incoming gray message? Because that doesn’t seem possible, unless you’re talking about something other than what I and the person you responded to are talking about.

As far as I can tell, the OP’s insistence that their service won’t send gray messages seems entirely disconnected from reality.

Yeah, I was switching between my phone and desktop to watch the stream and I had a seamless experience on both devices the entire time. I’m not sure why so many people are assuming this was a universal experience.

Did you miss this early in the article? Or did you just not find it convincing?

…what ads? See the last paragraph here [0].

Obviously your statement is true about most other sites, but I thought it was an odd thing to say about a platform that famously doesn’t serve ads.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t you simply referring to “applied mathematics” and “pure mathematics”, respectively? I skimmed through the replies to your comment and I don’t believe anyone mentioned these terms, although I did see one reference to “abstract mathematics” (a term used by you, as well).

I thought these were well-known terms and thus that the dichotomy you describe was itself well-known, but I thought I’d add this comment on the chance that you weren’t familiar with them.

No, not necessarily. At least according to Wikipedia, suicide is the act of _intentionally_ taking one’s own life. [1] It seems that the legal definition, at least in some jurisdictions, aligns. [2] If you find someone has died from self-inflicted wounds, it may be ruled suicide or accident. The colloquial use of suicide may also include accidental suicide, which could introduce confusion.

When I read “I feel like I'm fundamentally missing something about iterative development in Common Lisp” in the GP, I thought of exactly what’s in these replies. I’ve only recently started learning CL via Practical Common Lisp, and while I liked Emacs+SLIME, I’m a vim guy (I know) and switched to vim+VLIME instead, and so far I’m loving it. This to me has actually been the “secret sauce” of Lisp in my early experience, because now when I go to write code or use the REPL for languages like Python and Ruby, I find myself missing the SLIME/VLIME experience. I find it to be a very intuitive and efficient way to write code interactively.
