Are all of you pi users paying Anthropic and OpenAI for API usage? Or can you combine pi with a subscription? So far API usage is a lot more expensive than subscription and if you need better models than Deepseek and Kimi, and you are not w

"Three knobs matter:" I can't help reading articles with the radar on for signs of AI-generation nowadays. I have noticed that Claude sometimes uses the word knob for parameter, so here I get suspicious.

Side note: I don’t know what Anthropic changed but now Claude Code consumes the quota incredibly fast. I have the Max5 plan, and it just consumed about 10% of the session quota in 10 minutes on a single prompt. For $100/month, I have h

Since it’s an 1.44M image I assume they use 3.5” diskettes. The terms floppy and diskette are used as synonyms today, but the different names make sense since floppies are flexible and “floppy”. Diskettinux?

This is very annoying - I get this too now, and there is no way to make it go away (except for enabling watch history I assume). Very bad!

Have you tried applying for a position in a public sector IT-department? The public sector should not age-discriminate, at least in theory.

Interesting to see. The Vim people at work are constantly harrasing us two Emacs users, claiming that lisp is old and silly, and that vimscript is good. Maybe change is acoming.

Scoopex's Mental Hangover was a great demo at the time. I still like its soundtrack by Uncle Tom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZETBFv6zWs

I mention this, as in his speech, Chomsky mentions Sweden in the same gang as UK and the US, without making the distinction why Sweden is interested in Assange - which made me quite disappointed in Chomsky. It is true that the preliminary r

Assange is accused of sexual assault in Sweden. Sexual assault victims have the right to trial and justice, no matter who the accused is. No one is above the law, not even a famous journalist.

I bought a plain, no turbo Volvo 940 for $1000 ten years ago. It's 25 years old now, and still is very reliable. Newer Volvos seem a lot more complex, and I can't help thinking that there's a lot more electronics and mechanis

Recently I have gotten very interested in Guix, after 16 years of only Debian. Guix keeps surprising me, most recently its container system. This page is exactly what I was looking for to get started with my own packages.

Prof. Torbjörn Lager was my teacher in a few courses back in around 2005, I even had a beer or two with him. He is a very smart and funny guy - I can say with 100% certainty that he means it as a joke.

Shouldn't it be called Windows Subsystem for GNU? There's a boatload of GNU-tools in there, but does it include a Linux kernel too?
