There's no such things as gemini cli these days. It's called "agy" (short for antigravity). And if you don't know what that is, you're probably 3-6 months behind already. PS: Just Googled it to confirm: Gemini

When the overall economy grows, the demand for human labor often grows with it — it doesn’t shrink. That has been the story of 200+ years of industrialization: new technology eliminates some jobs, but it also creates new industries, new dem

A few thoughts: 1. Chat, being 3 yr old, is a fairly mature and solved problem today. Top companies aren't even talking about it anymore! Gemma 31B does it amazingly well (for $0.4/1M token output). Practically every near-SoTA and

For those who missed: Gemini coding and agentic capabilities have been lagging the sota models (Opus mostly) since Dec 2026. If you're a co-lead and your model is underperforming there has to be some consequences. I don't know as

Would you be better off trusting something like Claude Desktop app / Claude Cowork instead? OpenClaw stories are very scary to me.

I owned a model 3 and two model Ss. I largely regard model S as the best sedan ever made (in less than 100k USD luxury price range). No, model 3 doesn't even come close. Plus you can buy a 3yr old model S "like new" at the pr

Despite consensus forecasts predicting a slowdown to 1.8% growth, the US economy appears poised for acceleration in 2026 driven by a potent combination of aggressive fiscal and monetary loosening. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s optimism

By late 2025, Boston’s Kendall Square biotech hub faces a severe downturn marked by a "biotech winter" of plummeting venture capital and soaring lab vacancies. Caused by high interest rates, domestic policy uncertainties, and inte

This reads like a mid-life crisis. A few rebuttals: 1. Yes, humans cause enormous harm. That’s not new, and it’s not something a single technology wave created. No amount of recycling or moral posturing changes the underlying reality that l

The distinction Karpathy draws between "growing animals" and "summoning ghosts" via RLVR is the mental model I didn't know I needed to explain the current state of jagged intelligence. It perfectly articulates why t

The author is conflating a financial correction with a technological failure. I agree that the economics of GenAI are currently upside down. The CapEx spend is eye-watering, and the path to profitability for the foundational model providers

AI-text detection software is BS. Let me explain why. Many of us use AI to not write text, but re-write text. My favorite prompt: "Write this better." In other words, AI is often used to fix awkward phrasing, poor flow, bad englis

I recently downloaded about 10 years of monthly price returns for QQQ, TQQQ, NVDA, GBTC, and a few others. Then I asked ChatGPT and Gemini (separately) to find the portfolio that maximizes an adjusted CAGR — roughly, mean return minus ½ × s

1. I find Gemini 2.5 Pro's text very easy and smooth to read. Whereas GPT5 thinking is often too terse, and has a weird writing style. 2. GPT5 thinking tends to do better with i) trick questions ii) puzzles iii) queries that involve se

I’m a big advocate of branchless programming — keeping configurations to a minimum and maintaining as much linear flow as possible, with little to no cfg-driven branching. Why? I once took over a massive statistics codebase with hundreds of

I've seen this happen before. President ordering people to be sued, and even jailed. There's a name for this kind of system and it isn't congressional democracy.

I don't hate Tesla. I've owned two of them, and still have one. I just think severe underperformance and hallucinations are going on with the company. FSD has been a complete lie since the beginning. Any reasonable person who foll

If I had to guess, I’d say the original Tesla founders had a greater influence than Musk. His track record, frankly, is unimpressive. He’s been promising full self-driving “next year” since 2016, yet it’s still nowhere close. Aside from the
