thefounder··on Mojo 1.0 Beta
Does it have the indentation thing? That would be a no go for a lot of people
thefounder··on Mercedes-Benz commits to bringing back physical buttons
Maybe you shouldn’t drive that day. Tesla is not FSD. In case there is an accident you are the one responsible. Looking on a photo of your dog while Tesla is ramming into someone? Your day just got worse
thefounder··on Mercedes-Benz commits to bringing back physical buttons
A FSD vehicle is not supposed to require you to keep the hands on the wheel and be prepared at anytime to take over control. I would say Waymo has a FSD mode while Tesla has a death trap mode with its customers as the beta test drivers.
thefounder··on GameStop makes $55.5B takeover offer for eBay
But eBay is just bad company with a bad reputation. Why would they buy it instead something like Etsy or make their own thing? If you would ask me what are the worst companies from the “old guard” I would name eBay and PayPal as prime suspects.
thefounder··on A statement about why RightsCon 2026 will not take place in Zambia
it does care about human rights but of course the national interest is first otherwise why they didn’t just support dictatorships in South Korea, West Germany, Japan, Taiwan etc ? The U.S is not great but is the best alternative. China, Russia and pretty bad because they don’t have freedom not even for their own people
thefounder··on Porsche will contest Laguna Seca in historic colors of the Apple Computer livery
I think now it would be confused with the lgb** flags
thefounder··on Mercedes-Benz commits to bringing back physical buttons
Little she knows that if she uses the “self driving” from Tesla she may get into a death trap.
thefounder··on A statement about why RightsCon 2026 will not take place in Zambia
Whether is a pretext or not is less important. I don’t mind if the U.S is overthrowing a dictatorship for his own interests while using democracy and human rights as a pretext if at least is trying to enforce a human rights and democracy agenda once the new gov and usually U.S does it with more or less success.

You can’t really expect people to go to war with no national interest. I think for a while democracy was more than a pretext as it helped the U.S keep away communism from its own shores.

thefounder··on For the first time in history, more Americans are moving to EU than vice versa
the golden visas were banned in the EU last year https://amp.dw.com/en/eu-citizenship-no-longer-for-sale/a-72...
thefounder··on For the first time in history, more Americans are moving to EU than vice versa
No, they just stop accepting immigrants.
thefounder··on DeepSeek v4
Everything I do is json and of course you want that json in a specific format so that you can process it further.
thefounder··on DeepSeek v4
They still don’t support json schema or batch api. It’s like deepseek does not want to make money
thefounder··on Anthropic says OpenClaw-style Claude CLI usage is allowed again
Not really. They realised they acted too soon. Give them some time until the market “consolidates” and they will change again their policy. Why would they want someone else to develop competing clients?
thefounder··on Anthropic says OpenClaw-style Claude CLI usage is allowed again
I don’t get why people are so surprised. Didn’t they learn anything from Twitter APIs and the like. The APIs are open as long as they serve the short term problem then Anthropic builds the features people actually use (more or less) and ban the usage of APIs for competing clients
thefounder··on OpenAI's $852B valuation faces investor scrutiny amid strategy shift, FT reports
But why would you want it to converse like a human? What I need is concise information not a buddy to talk to. If anything I see it as a feature
thefounder··on OpenAI's $852B valuation faces investor scrutiny amid strategy shift, FT reports
Codex is just better than Claude but Claude is faster and has the better UI for vscode. That’s why I use Claude as main coder with codex(5.4 with xhigh effort) as mcp reviewer etc. It is clear to me that codex is a better programmer but the UI and speed are too much of a con to use it exclusively. Claude is just clumsy
thefounder··on OpenAI's $852B valuation faces investor scrutiny amid strategy shift, FT reports
The world would barely notice if both OpenAI and Anthropic “fail”. There is a lot of competition in this space
thefounder··on OpenAI's $852B valuation faces investor scrutiny amid strategy shift, FT reports
what makes gpt 5.4 bad to chat ? To me it seems smart and does the job albeit it’s a bit slow. I’m using it only/mostly with the “pro” /xhigh reasoning
thefounder··on Someone Bought 30 WordPress Plugins and Planted a Backdoor in All of Them
In reality you are always on a time budget that is correlated with the output of the software you develop.(I.e is it worth it your time?) I’ve found out that the most important thing is to get feedback early even from yourself using whatever software you develop. If you develop a small effort piece of software you can ship it before other stuff is starting to compete for your time. But if it takes a year or more before even you can make any use of it I guarantee you that the chances of shipping it diminishes significantly. Other stuff competes for your time(I.e family, other hobbies etc).
thefounder··on Someone bought 30 WordPress plugins and planted a backdoor in all of them
It’s not always about money. It’s also about the time of the developer. Even for a hobby project you may burn out before to actually deliver it.
thefounder··on US – Iran negotiations end with no deal reached
I think they will settle that Iran won’t reuse whatever they have of that nuclear fuel if the U.S drops the nukes on the Iranian nuclear sites. Iran may also think twice before rejecting a deal in which they agree to not acquire a nuclear weapon.
thefounder··on US – Iran negotiations end with no deal reached
And is true about the nukes
thefounder··on US – Iran negotiations end with no deal reached
I think dropping a nuke is not out of question. We just have to watch the language of the U.S administration over the next weeks.
thefounder··on Session is shutting down in 90 days
>> Grounding identity in a phone number is very reasonable for almost all normal usage.

Yeah if you compare that with Facebook messenger and other such services but if you want secure communication it's not reasonable.

thefounder··on Veracrypt project update
I don't think they would be so much more expensive but they would be less profitable for sure and perhaps less "innovative" as a big chunk of the profit will go into regulation stuff.
thefounder··on Solod – A subset of Go that translates to C
As a Go developer I would use this unless...I would have to build the std libraries myself. Now I also wonder how this compares with tinyGo. Why would you pick one over the other...
thefounder··on Cursor 3
Copilot just sucks . I’ve tried them both and I stick with cc and codex mcp
thefounder··on Intel Announces Arc Pro B70 and Arc Pro B65 GPUs
How is Apple packing 512gb of ram on their cpu?
thefounder··on Intel Announces Arc Pro B70 and Arc Pro B65 GPUs
Why don’t they make an GPU optimised for inference/batch jobs with 1 TB of ram ? Everyone wants to run the biggest models locally.
thefounder··on Two pilots dead after plane and ground vehicle collide at LaGuardia
Yeah but why there was not red alert on all the monitors when both the airplane and the truck had green light on the same runway ? That’s the minimum of automation that I would expect, ideally sync-ed to all the participants(truck drivers, pilots etc). It would not have been hard for a system to predict the collision given it had all the data (positions of each participant + the route of each).
