I was just thinking of making something like this! But more as a novelty than something I realistically expect to use.

Yeah, I don’t know why people worry about feeding themselves when they could be reading books and looking at art instead.

I didn’t know you could do this. Is there any analysis of the impact, before and after? I’d love to see some charts of efficacy in real world usage.

> Money is just a social construct

I'm not sure what you're trying to say but it hardly matters if "X is social construct" if having it is the difference between struggling and not.

TBH this is the exact thing that frustrates people who get screwed by the system, "Silly peasants! Don't they know that money is just a social construct!"

I think the point is that it’s so beneficial to society for people to get these degrees that we should lower the barrier even further. I think you are right that having the private sector fund it is a good base state, I suspect you’d find that you can improve on that base by funding it with some public money. We’ve probably gone a little too far in that direction though.

I think folks would agree with you in valuing arts and humanities, just that they shouldn’t do it on someone else’s dime. I suspect you’d find that a widely held belief and not just an American one.

It’s hard out there and I have some non-college educated family who also struggled in life wondering why we should pour money into degrees people can’t pay off when they received no help themselves.

IMO, this is a little different than smoking since they are something you buy and consume rather than something that’s bought for you.

I’ve had this pretty frequent experience with AI where someone says, “AI can’t do X,” then someone a little more experienced with the tools or maybe a little luckier gets some prompts together with the solution in a few hours.

I think I’ve been on both sides of this.

Meh, I have it integrated as a replacement for search engines at this point.

I don’t even know that Claude is inherently better or if it’s more the lack of ads.

Funny, I was looking this up as you typed it. I was going to ask the same thing.

I don’t think it counts. It was close but Notch founded Mojang and worked with others for a few years before the sale.

I think it could have counted though. I think Notch created a lot of the momentum himself.

Ed Zitron,

He gets things others are missing.

He also misses things others are getting.

I think it’s nice to have a voice criticizing the fundraising aspect of these companies. I do think we’ll see at least one of them blow up. The technology is obviously useful though. Hundreds of thousands of developers have already changed the way they were working for decades. Some of the criticisms that the technology doesn’t work at all go a bit too far.

Idk, I look at the list of the top companies and they seem to be based on US IP.

I agree that the US is falling behind in the areas you mention but that analysis fails to recognize the value of markets the US is dominant in.

I don’t know, even if data centers need more and more ram in the future, there may eventually be enough production that the consumer needs are just a small skim off the top from that.

Come to think of it, I used the same email address at YCombinator's https://www.workatastartup.com

I'll change it on that end and see if it's coming from there.

I’m not sure what you’re saying is reasonable. I’m sorry, your comment is just a bit muddled.

I don’t think either the employees or company are doing anything illegal here but certainly using the company’s name without permission is grounds for termination and usually in employee agreements.

My understanding is that this ordinance mainly protects employees sharing a political representation at work e.g., wearing a pride shirt.

I don't think it provides sweeping protection to use your employer's name in the name of your political organization which is what these employees did, “Amazon Employees for Climate Justice”.

Yeah, I wouldn’t recommend that either. In general, you shouldn’t put your company name in your political organization unless it has specific protection.

You can figure that out beforehand by getting internal HR or external legal advice.

In general I’d be surprised if this isn’t covered by the employee agreement. I don’t think these employees did anything illegal but they probably did break that agreement and could face termination.

This doesn’t seem like a technicality. Did you read the article? They used Amazon’s name for their group. They literally named it, “Amazon Employees for Climate Justice”.

Yeah, this felt like clickbait to me. It's pretty poor quality writing. It introduces a pretty abstract idea which is fine, but it doesn't seem to land it's points.

Comments like this are unhelpful for finding the truth. The world would be nice if things aligned on a clear good vs evil axis, “the other side is just evil of course!” but they don’t.

I know people on both sides of the political spectrum and there’s pain and confusion across society. Perhaps one side has more power in this moment and more harmful impact but making sweeping claims, "it’s all racism" is what makes a group feel unheard and angry.

That’s a rad technique. Thanks for sharing.

I often push past 300k or so and I’ve absolutely worked at 800k but it’s an observable problem. Large context windows can work depending on the problem but I do feel more effective biasing towards small ones <300k.

Wow, this doesn’t even look like the normal “hiring”/jobs post. Just a funnel straight into a potential scam :/ Shocking to see it here.

It looks like they might be using a loophole since their product is training for jobs they are using that as a substitute for, “we’re hiring.”

I also use multiple. Your statusline is per Claude session so it can show separate quotas/file info/context use/etc.

It’s just a script you write to modify the last line of the Claude Code program.

I recommend people just update their Claude Code status line so that changes like this are in Claude Code itself.

Lots of people are gambling on AI with big bucks. Some of it is promising but all those bets won’t pay off. I like to think of this mindset as being the human slot machine that people are shoving money into.

It could be but there’s always been so called “10x developers” who just make 10x messes. I think it’s the continuation of an existing phenomenon.

Yeah probably my favorite of the bunch too. I bet there’s a fun project to do to make a customizer for that.

Error: Success!

I learned the fast shoelace knot from this site years ago. Highly recommend it: https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/ianknot.htm

It’s both functional and a great party trick.
