Data centers is a service that itself consumes many goods. Until an AI can operate in the real world in a completely sustainable way, humans have the reins.

Big yes on this. I do not understand the appeal of skill shopping. The one exception I have is things like the Axiom Apple development skills and e.g. the official Flutter skills. At that point the skills are just docs though. It's eit

You can hire a nanny. I know there's stigma there, too, but I know some "career women" who do this and it works fine. If you're that motivated (and your interests are lucrative enough), you can pull it off.

This is perpetually an issue with the whole field of AI/LLMs. The experience is so personal. Every time I talk to someone about their use of LLMs for software engineering, I'm shocked by their approaches and experiences. They say

Why is being statistics/algorithms wrong? What's wrong with that? The "A" means artificial so none of this seems surprising or weird or bad.

Makes it easier to use enterprisey management console type UIs on the go. Also nice for reading large diffs.

Where is the official source for this? OpenAI's docs still show non-discounted pricing https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/models/gpt-5.6-sol

They do decide on the 5% markup. But as far as I can tell, all other routers just match 5%. Not sure what they're competing on.

You definitely can build an LLM router with only the features you need (even the ones absent in OR!) for cheaper. Openrouter is 5% markup on all token usage . If you're a serious pay-per-use customer of AI, that's a lot of money.

Stripe has such a critical mass, I think SAAS builders don't even shop. It's just of course you use Stripe. It's a like a utility. I think even customers might be surprised to see a non-Stripe checkout when purchasing a SAA

Sol is way cheaper than Fable by the token.

Not surprised at all but there seems to be tons of these kinds of tools and I'm having a hard time picking one. Is there a nice list somewhere? I guess I can ask chatgpt... Honestly right now I do a lot of development from my phone - I

I wish I had something more methodical I could show. It's all subjective, but GLM-5.2 feels more human to me. Even GPT-5.6 Sol tends to be easier on the eyes for me (though the stereotype of it overengineering and no common sense are s

To me, it's just Claude. The other models have their quirks but nothing is quite like Claude. But even with Claude, it's it's really the prose getting in the way you can install the caveman plugin or tell it to use that &quot

Yes. You decrement for a few minutes then release if there's no purchase in time. Airlines figured out how to do this a very long time ago.

I work with Shopify often and the whole oversell protection thing is like a huge joke. Oversell happens because Shopify doesn't decrement inventory until payment is confirmed. And they apparently would rather die than change that invar

Anthropic paid out a lot of money for the copyrighted material they used. (not commenting on whether it was a fair amount - just saying these companies are not immune to lawsuits)

I think you want to make sure you don't hold a database connection while waiting on other slow async work (like outgoing HTTP requests). Then you can more feasibly have more workers than pool size. It's just very tricky to do this

> At 7 it may seem excitingly ambitious to build huge things out of Lego, then at 14 to teach yourself calculus, till at 21 you're starting to explore unanswered questions in physics. Is this supposed to be relatable?

That probably is what it means and I think there's still value in the analysis.

This is huge... At least from what I've seen, many companies (even if they don't know it) are largely sloppy R&D shops. Most people are on projects that are highly speculative and unlikely to generate revenue. But it often isn

> if the code goes boom, it's on the developer This is the same argument C (and Zig!) people have for manual memory management. You can avoid memory problems by being a good developer.

This varies wildly person to person but for me, it's not only about the means. It's a combination of means and end. If I want the computer to do something, and the only way to get it to do so is read a book and tinker, the reading

The game changes when it's not just "Opus vs Sonnet", but "Opus vs GLM". The amount saved is way more than even $0.04. And it's not only money but speed. Some providers can serve GLM crazy fast - I'll ev

This sounds like not the best workflow. If your prompt is that long, you may not be spending your time very efficiently. Splitting problems into smaller problems is huge. You want a concrete idea that you still own. Only tell an agent to do

How much does it cost? I even made an account and I cannot find pricing anywhere...

So it's GLM-5.2 performance for almost twice the price. That said, the speed looks really good. I think it's competitive with Fireworks's GLM 5.2 Fast, although Fireworks is still cheaper.

Why does KV cache matter if they show it's cheaper anyway?
