One thing I’m observing in these comments is a willingness of folks to project their own predictions onto Ed’s statements when validating their plausibility. Eg. “I think he’s wrong about the timing but I do expect AI companies to go to zer

I actually think you’ve got it backwards I think one of Zitron’s problems is that his moral righteousness has blinded him to how embarrassingly incorrect he is about the AI space. It’s similarly hubristic with the benefit of shielding from

But I think anyone who evaluates their claims understands that they’re talking their own books. Zitron’s problems are more subtle. He benefits financially from his own claims, while also touting his impartiality and capacity for objective t

But we’re talking about Gemini, which is one of Dan’s point: the surface area is so large that any prediction is almost laughable. Zitron’s prediction here is laughable in fact because he claims both (1) Pichai is jamming AI everywhere and

A prediction definitionally includes an outcome, and it _can_ include a timeline. (if you’re serious about your forecasting, then you generally include a timeline; forecasting is non-actionable if it does not include a timeline). You might

The onus isn’t on me. It’s on anyone contradicting findings by most benchmarks, because most of them show a clear advantage for Opus and GPT over OSS models.

The problem isn’t the SDK but the API usage. Users will say this-or-that about choice etc etc. It’s about subsidized tokens. Otherwise th users (and OpenCode) would have stopped pushing the workarounds months ago.

I’m sorry but you’re demonstrably incorrect. Listen, I want more open weight models in the world. They create entrepreneurial opportunities and support use cases which the foundation labs don’t want to support. But open weight models are co

This is both true and immaterial to Microsoft’s net profits.

Yep, well said and great, sharp explanation. I think we can attribute a bunch of consternation here to drift between assumed and actual licensing terms. The actual licensing terms for Claude Code expressly prohibit use of the product outsid

Yes, it is true that companies often litigate against customers who violate their Terms of Service. The TOS is put into place to protect the company’s interests from user abuse. Paying customers of Claude Code don’t receive a free-use licen

LMSYS consistently provides a high standard for open, collaborative exploration of LLMs. Cool to see them explore LLM routing - this feels like a fertile area for problemsolving.

My experience this is common for specialty knowledge the founders might not possess. They know enough to know they cannot assess, say, AI/ML or infrastructure, and seek interview support from an advisor.

I took Adam’s point here to be that an Airflow DAG author primarily concerns themselves with the configuration of those objects, since the underlying components (Celery worker, Python execution process or K8s pod; data warehouse; RPC) have

But at no point did OP claim it was a scam? They even ask if this is normal for American franchises, instead of accusing 7-11 of predatory behavior.

I use a trackball next to my keyboard which barely cracks the $100 barrier right now. The trackball won't change when the keyboard does in a few months.

I regret using the word "person." luv too be nitpicked on HN The better version of my argument is "the product is not the same because it was not appropriately transferred between operators." Of course this is all squish

You're making my point for me - that's a legally approved transfer of assets. This is not.

I don't think this excuses the cloning. If you wanted to keep the project running, the first step would be to speak with the real site's maintainer to develop a plan.

But it is not the same product, because it is not run by the same person. That matters.

I don’t think I questioned CP’s HOF credentials anywhere, except on whether he’s a dirty player. Which he is.
