this is exactly whats happening. Its funny having lived through this with snap dragons and phones. Everyones hyped about the branded phone, but it was the chip that mattered and how fast you rushed a product out after you got it. Sames true

if all it could do was operate a lawn mower and a shovel, the annual value to a homeowner in the north east is ~1-2k depending on lawn size assuming they value their free time at the same amount as their hourly wage. what you have to keep i

they're subsidized if you max them out, i'd imagine most users are paying $20 for maybe $2-5 of tokens. anthropic probably has more customers that use more of their sub, but for open ai where a lot of their subs are consumers thro

at least openai had the guts to call code red and improve. releasing a model worse than luna is pretty bad. Its clear that internally they did not decide coding was a thing until relatively recently.

pi is the neovim of agentic harnesses, its barebones and extremely configurable. if you're the sort of person who likes that sort of things its a forever product, nothing is going to displace it because you have full control. opencode

the amount of system prompt wastage going on in orgs is insane. we identified 400k in annual burn for zero value in just one section of our large company. and the interesting thing about system prompt wastage is its a cost that scales non l

EU companies own like 20% of EU compute, and a huge portion of that was from a russian asset being spun out.

i mean its a value exchange, the last mile matters a ton to the consumer, the value prop the average person gets from amazon vs shopping in 2000 is insane and scales up the more valuable your time is. Not only are prices good, but if i lose

demonization has nothing to do with viewers value from youtube you just have been radicalized to inject talking points into every single conversation.

by lanthissa 3mo ago
the 3rd party isn't an intermediary, youtube content is fantastic because it found a way to pay people to produce something for every niche, and reward the ones doing well with more viewers and more money. ofc you would prefer high qua

long term he doesn't want his own distribution though. youtube offers you new viewers constantly. peertube only makes sense if it has a viewerbase and an ad network, and at hte point we're back to google but they're going to

this is exactly right, people dont realize that they're getting a great deal on youtube. if you want to disrupt youtube you need to do it by winning over the creators which is a difficult thing to do since no new platform can subsidize

The person who wrote this was was closer in time to the technology that was able to unwind and read burned fragments of their text, than the technology that build the pyramids. pretty wild to think about.

AI is the first technology that doesn't incentivize offshoring, and incentivizes co-location of talent. A NYC dev and a dev in india have the same ai costs, based the ratio tokens/salary it becomes less of comparative disadvantage
