I would love to know how they are going to handle deepfakes. Also, doesn't this give law enforcement an easier avenue to compel access to someone's accounts?

Sure, but it did better on the test, which matches OpenAI's claim. More bang for more buck. Interestingly, using your tests as a comparison, 5.5 low beats 5.4 medium at a 82% of the cost.[0] [0]: https://aibenchy.com/co

I’m only seeing 3x the cost of DeepSeek for other providers on Open Router. Is there a better place to look?

No! No, no, not 10! He said 9. Nobody's comin' up with 10. Who processing with 10 bits? What’s the extra bit for? You’re just wastin’ electrons.

Placed my cursor at the top of the hour peak on the 'Peaks' clock. Few moments later, it shifted slightly to the left. Had a bit of existential dread as I saw time slipping away. Nice clocks though.

Thank you for sharing! A year or two after you got your 1000, my dad bought the family an Amiga 500. It began my love of computing, gave me a scrappy hacker mind set (owning an Amiga in the US a rarity), and ultimately sowed the seeds of my

FWIW, the vast majority of sales people I’ve spoken to over the past 5 years have been WFH/WFCS (work from coffee shop). Certainly for bigger deals they come onsite for the final stages of the sales process, but most interaction is han

I must have missed this and I’m genuinely curious how this works. How does it work with, say, a SaaS company? Does every employee and contractor retain a perpetual license to each line of code they wrote? If that company ever looks to sell,
