This is fantastic news. Matt is an ass and unfit to lead a small HOA, let alone a company and open source project.

What is it about Hacker News that draws only criticism and negativity? Is it even possible to build a community that's optimistic?

This is wasting too much water and energy!

I know in order to conform to HN community rules I'm supposed to be negative and dunk on this, but I have to say, I am so excited to use Astra!

Try Sol. It’s much better at getting to the point. I tend to use 5.6-xhigh or max.

If Anthropic thinks Opus 5 is very good, it is a window into how insular their culture is. I find it far, far behind Sol. It’s downright annoying to use.

I’m on an 14” M5 Pro MacBook Pro with nano texture display. It’s the best computer I have ever owned. Not close.

Heck. Yeah. I'm with you. This is GOOD. Social media is unhealthy. You know what else is unhealthy? Hacker News' constant bashing of every. single. thing. ever.

Rivian’s software is pretty good. Often key fobs don’t work, but generally it is better than most cars except for Tesla. The hardware is another story. My R1S was a hunk of junk. It was the worst experience I’ve ever had with a car and I wi

This is the same site that ran a front page saying if you vote for Trump you are literally a racist. I liked it better when it was just headphone reviews and holiday gift guides to pump their affiliate revenue. XD

Sounds like the start of every journey. With all respect to your thesis, I probably put my chips on Google's research and security teams.

“How does affect Claude’s outputs?” Is poor proofreading a form of watermarking? Clever, I suppose, but they should consider running posts through Sol for clarity.

Garmin Fenix 8. Love it. It’s for trail running, payments in a pinch. Love the industrial design, far more than Apple Watch Ultra or certainly any Android watch. I’m a power user given its narrow focus, but no, I don’t expect it to have my

Anthropic’s second biggest issue is they increasingly rent when others buy. Even if model value compresses, owning your vertical stack protects your margins upstream, and potentially downstream in applications. But the biggest issue is this

So, if an open weights model was found to be very dangerous, what - just too bad? One could, of course, design an open safety protocol, written and performed by people in the executive branch, accountable to an elected official. I love ho

They should switch to announcing when their model is usable. We can scurry in and get some work done real quick!

This is probably great news. Using Fly at different points along the way has been one of the worst experiences I’ve had in terms of their persistent reliability issues and how they go dark on addressing those issues at times. Whatever cultu

It's so weird I was downvoted for asking this question. I'll go somewhere else to find out the answer.

Can someone help me understand something? I thought Fable was such a miraculous leap forward in capability. But now it seems Opus is basically on par with it, and in some cases (computer use) far exceeds it.

Seems easy for Buzz to solve. I’m just happy to have an alternative to Slack.

K3 is as expensive as Sonnet, not great at writing English, is handing IP back to the Chinese, and once open source will be difficult to run at scale without the compute that OpenAI and Anthropic have largely grabbed. Sorry, how again is th
