I personally think forcing less well off people to use worse modes of transport (or not travel at all) is not a well thought out scheme for reducing environmental impact. For me, it doesn't matter because my main mode of transport is a

I don't think the person you reply to conflates "information diet" with "tech". They are just saying that their information diet consists for a large part of tech news, and other people have other information diets

In my country (for people with a so called "dynamic pricing" contract) the price of electricity already drops significantly when we have a load of green energy (wind, solar). I guess this is just a side effect of not having a well

My trick is to pass opus and fable's word salad into a haiku agent, then have it check if what haiku makes of it is still correct, then pass it to me. Whatever haiku outputs is often way more readable

It's pretty interesting that you are trying to find a reason for highlighting not working, while it's pretty obvious that many people are using highlighting and it is in fact helping them. Just that it doesn't work for you, d

I see these "In Europe" claims all over hackernews. You realize "In Europe" doesn't really exist? When you cross a country border, everything is different again.

That might be a reason, but probably more relevant is the fact that when you want solar to provide all power for a data center, you need a lot of buffering capacity (batteries). And then you also need a back up for when the sun doesn't

If that is the original intent, why did that not get added into the law? Explicitly specififying that the exception only applies to emergency backup situations would have solved this, right?

Also, for whatever software engineering work I throw at Fable 5, Opus 5 also does fine. Apparently Fable is supposed to do better at long running tasks (in other words - burning more tokens without interacting with the user), but that'
