As a technology demonstration it’s amazing, as a product it isn’t particularly compelling. It’s to expensive, to heavy, and just a pain to put on and take off. A $500 light weight version that lifts on and off more like glasses than a heads

I disagree with it feeling aimless - other than the Vision Pro, you can’t really point to a weak point in their lineup? You can only invent the modern smartphone once then everything else is iterative. The iPhone, iPhone Pro, Air and now Du

Difference is they made a mini, it sold poorly, every time they make a phone with a bigger screen it sells like hotcakes.

I really don’t know how you can say he wouldn’t do this things. The Air particularly - the thinnest, lightest feeling, nicest to hold iPhone ever made, I think that might have been his favorite. The Vision Pro is clearly an interesting cate

As a product, would developers switch to a meta model/harness? I don’t think so. Only way I see is if it becomes the new SOTA / frontier, does anyone think Meta will surpass Anthropic or OpenAI? I still can’t get my head around wh

I still struggle with local llm being a reason to drop insane money on one of these - they are targeting people who want high performance local LLMs, that value privacy over using 3rd party api, but also dont want to use Nvidia? small part

cables can get pretty big, you could run maybe 75-90MW through a 66kV 1200mm2 Cu offshore wind array cable, maybe 500MW through a 275kV 2000mm2 cu export cable and 1.3GW through a 320kV hvdc bipole set of cables (2GW through 525kv HVDC!) -

Terrible site to try read. I have no idea about smaller cables but HV power cables (grid / offshore renewables etc) are consistently designed and produced using aluminum conductors. If you want to get really fancy I think you can even

Local vs remote compute is a constant thread in tech history - mainframes and desktops then local and cloud compute (think Google Photos bs Apple photos - one indexes on device the other indexes in cloud). Now we have the next chapter local

I’m not sure what I need to cite but logically when you’ve paid 1B for a lease up front, you’ll want to recoup that through the money you get paid for the electricity you generate. The project accounting probably includes a return on that s

We need to be careful in not throwing the babies out with the bath water - the fees paid for the leases for these projects were so high that the projects would not be economically viable in the first place. The developers are probably doing

I use UniFi Nas Pro - it is just a NAS, not a home server. I have it directly connected to my home server with a 10GB SFP+ link and it works super well.

Thing is this is a technical justification for something that was done purely to add an extra add break in - there is no point in having the technical discussion. The problem I had with this World Cup was the over commercialization of it. T

I feel like it must be worthwhile for Hashimoto to move on from Ghostty to this. If it is ‘just’ a better tmux-like experience, then that could be very useful if these agentic workflows actually arrive.

There’s no reason to be loyal, but I guess it’s a bit like any tool, once you get used to how one works why would you change to another? There is some stickiness with an LLM + harness.

It literally is, but people don’t use LLMs to interact with their computers they use touch screens or mouse and a keyboard. This is why I think it will be the platform owners who end up winning - if iPhone / Mac / iPad ship with a

You say this like it a bad thing my 90yr old grandmother can use WhatsApp and iCloud Photos - if they can get that demographic using LLMs meaningfully, it probably means they’ve cracked the interface.

This kind of thing just makes me think Apple will get to a point where they have good enough local models and good enough harnesses for doing things, and most normal people will just use them… Does the LLM become another interface to comput
