I wouldn’t use an immortality serum if it came with Norton branding. How come it is still a thing?

Oh I am terribly sorry, did not know Anthropic was formed as a a “Good Company”. Which changes everything ever. Snark aside, maybe I’m too pessimistic and you are correct on this. But.. doesn’t that mean we are completely fucked? If they do

These are European governments with trillions of dollars of GDPs. They should not be trying to cock block themselves like teenagers in these matters.

I have an M1 and M4 Max at office. I feel the sluggishness of M1 now, after years it finally started to show its age.

I did not know this was a thing. I have a couple of devices that do not charge on a usb c source. I have to use a USB A - C cable on their shitty usb-c ports. Now that I know the probable reason I’m more annoyed.

I mean their track record when humans are in the loop is not better either. Decisions on hidden downgrades, subscription usage restrictions, account bans, neverending dance around model availability on subscription plans. Keeping CC closed

I don't think it is a big of a problem as it looks. Most of the dust / sand issues were on the earlier models and were related to the hinge mechanism itself. My Fold 4 at some point started making grinding noises that raise ones b

I wonder why it uses 200+ on Mac. It looks like a native (ish) application. Has a bunch of visualizations and stuff. It might all be graphical assets?

I am sorry but what was the point of this story?

They also managed to develop a steaming pile of shit called Logi Options+ which you need to set up your mouse (I only used the mac version to be fair)

I once had a fairly popular answer to a general question that included the word “mankind.” Someone changed it to “humankind,” another person changed that to “humans,” and eventually someone removed it altogether for no apparent reason. Then

Someone here recently said, “Dishonesty is a core value of Anthropic,” and that aligns with my experience of the company as a user. All their talk about AI safety since the company’s inception now feels like pure theater, given their conduc

I agree the general premise but do not agree when it comes to browser support. I feel like we should be building for the 98% or even 95% and force the remaining to upgrade their browsers. I've built for the IE6 - IE11 era for a painful

I opened the page and prompted it `Which 3d printer is the best`. I mean this is a stupid question but I was looking at some 3d printers so it popped into my mind. Seeing this log is interesting: https://link.ekin.dev/6RzYGG

I was hoping for some kind of a Siri LLM API for providers to implement so that I'd be able to use Gemini, ChatGPT, maybe Openrouter, SELF HOSTED or whatever the fuck I want. Given that Apple itself does not really have a horse in the

BTW, the openai responses api has a store parameter and a thread id input. Makes it possible to send a thread id and append a new message, ask for completion. So it feels like keeping the conversation going. Technically it does retrieve the

Yeah.. Also, after they fucked up the CC, released that 4.7 etc. I switched completely to Codex and honestly do not wish to go back to half assed harness of Claude. Codex somehow got extremely good in a couple of months.

The blog post says they prune them now not to charge you. That’s the change they implemented.

I’m not familiar with the Claude API but OpenAI has an encrypted thking messages option. You get something that you can send back but it is encrypted. Not available on Anthropic?

Not at the moment apparently. They remove the thinking messages when you continue after 1 hour. That was the whole idea of that change. So the LLM gets all your messages, its responses etc but not the thinking parts, why it generated that r

Well anectodally, 5.4 was already better than opus 4.7 so it should not have been hard.
