Too many koi fish is stressful (and slow)

I'd love a version without the multiplayer and just zen

Good points, and I'll keep in mind. It might be I'm just sensitive to this narrative, especially in media. Writers need to also take the extra step and assign the agency to the operators and not the nameless AI.

I don't doubt that, but that's not what he wrote.

It is also not how OpenAI or Anthropic position the attacks and escapes from their labs. The words matter, they are being positioned as intelligent and unable to be controlled which is just not true.

> I’m fearful of the damage AI might cause: agent swarms taking over our virtual and physical infrastructure, designing bio weapons

The attitude that AI is doing things all on its own is so pervasive. These are all set off by human operators, giving them instructions and tools to do whatever it is that are doing. The "AI has a mind of its own" attitude is just wrong.

The fear of bad people using AI to do bad things is very different then AI agent swarms attacking and taking over.

OpenRouter or Fireworks are two of many that allow you to run numerous different models. You can use open code harnesses like Pi or Opencode that connect easily to these services.

The 256GB option is +$4,000 - the overall price for 512GB setup would probably be $20k!

You probably shouldn't use a system if you don't understand what it might do. You are the culpable force setting the action into motion.

You.

That graph has to be made because an Exec didn't like that graph went down to the right instead of up and to the right. How do you make a graph with 0 on the far right and counts up by going left of 0? What number line is that?

The game theory is all wrong, this is a cooperative game, either they both win or both lose. I don't see how the Donkey getting hit by a car should be classified as "Donkey wins"

You think? Here's the U.S. unemployment rate during the great depression

        1929: 3.2%
        1930: 8.7%
        1931: 15.9%
        1932: 23.6%
        1933: 24.9% (Peak of the Great Depression)
        1934: 21.7%
        1935: 20.1%
        1936: 16.9%
        1937: 14.3%
        1938: 19.0% (Economic recession during the Depression)
        1939: 17.2%
        1940: 14.6%

Looks like you're the straw that broke the camel's back. Thanks man. ;-)

Every Thursday, the ice cream man comes down our street. The price is usually around ~$20 to buy happiness for a family of 4.

The Plain Writing Act of 2010 established the requirement that content for the public is written for its specific audience. These guides help you to understand how to create, design and test content so your specific audience understands it.

It appears open models were used to create this slop.

That opening is so hard to understand what they are trying to say, from the font and how it's written. It took me several times rereading to even grasp.

Plus the article is filled with cryptic things like:

    Open ships easy.
    Open deploys hard.

What?! Is it a meta answer to "the state of open source AI" question?

Great idea! I just created one for Pi

Except they're not available, 3-4 month wait time.

When is Amazon Bedrock going to get these newer models?

Offloading compute to them is much easier, except its still a limited set of open models. Most companies are already running in AWS, so it's an easy add, models run in a trusted location, just another line item on the Amazon bill. You don't have to talk anyone into signing up with a new vendor. Plus you don't have to worry about local hardware at all.

The US government employees around 3m people, I'm pretty sure 2.7m people losing their jobs would feel the difference.

The population doesn't just go from 100m to 50m instantly. It gradually changes over time, 100 years from now the smaller population will work itself out, but none of us will be alive for that. We still have 100 years of discomfort to get through.

Fewer children mean all the industries and gov't services who are employed now to service children will need to downsize, these are lost jobs now before the fewer children grow to adults where they would take over those fewer jobs. All of this will have a effect across the economy.

Pediatricians, Teachers, Toys & Games companies, Children Furniture, School Supplies, Electronics, etc.... All of these are sized with the expectation of the same consumer demand, but when there are less kids to buy and service each of these will be forced to downsize. Again in the long run it works out, but in the short run say next 50 years for people in these markets will see downsizing over time. Can the rest of the economies pick that up?

The basis of capitalism is on growth. How can you continue to grow revenue constantly if there aren't more people to buy products or use your services. Additionally tax revenue decreases as fewer people are working, so less government services and employment would be available.

Schools is a good example, as there are less children, you need less schools and consolidate. So there are less jobs for teachers, now it looks like an equilibrium issue since over time it will balance out. But those teachers who are losing their jobs are adults, tax payers, consumers now and the loss of spending has a cascading effect.

These small utilities are great, now so quick and easy to create. I made a TUI version and then grew tired of it and ported it to Electron, took less than an hour for each. For those complaining about YAML format, you can create your own in less than an hour using whatever format you want.

The potentially disheartening thing about the ability to create apps like this, they are just low effort are they even worth sharing anymore? I have personal clones of Postman, Teux Deux, Goodreads and a few other utilities. Previously I would clean them up, document, and share out, but now I don't bother with most of it. Just not worth it, when people can make their own customized to their whims.

Much better, nice update!

Also, the stacked graph only allows you to quickly see total mentions, really hard to compare negative or positive sentiment across models at a glance.

I wrote a brief intro to Jujutsu here: https://mkaz.blog/code/jujutsu-vcs

Inventory is tight too, if you look at delivery/shipping times for Mac Studio and Mac Mini, I'm seeing April/May

I just did this at work, I was working with Postman testing an API and wanted it work in a slightly different way and be able to do some bulk testing, saving responses, all slightly different then how Postman worked. I clone just the features I wanted in about 15 minutes and now have my own API test tool that works exactly how I want. It is not something I would ever release or need to share, just a local tool for me to use. If your software doesn't provide a service, like sync, storage, availability, if it is just local, it'll be a tough market.

This also got me thinking about open source might be dying. For this tool, there is no reason for me to open source it, anyone can create the same thing in minutes. I didn't add anything, the only maybe interesting part would be to share the prompt, but then someone else can create their own prompt to have their tool do what they want.

Software world is really getting weird.

Brilliant, agree, that's much better and even more safer.

So would you make cul-de-sacs out of each column?

I have a similar one using localStorage https://github.com/mkaz/browser-pad
