That’s what I’m saying, I don’t set it up. I just install Claude code and I’m good to go. Managing configuration files feels like worrying about fine-tuning in 2023

I’m a professional theoretical physicist in my 40s and I never thought the day would come that I would realize I became shit at mental math. I can do quantum physics in my head but don’t ask me to add 17 to 34

I’ve tried to keep up with “best practices” around AI use, but things are improving so quickly that I’ve largely given up. The vanilla agents are just fine for my needs as they come.

I don’t think so: the ELO rating difference is what matters, e.g. a 1000 player vs an 800 player has the same win probability as a 2800 vs a 2600.

That’s a fair question, but it seems that it’s not yet necessary. See here https://dylancastillo.co/posts/pelicanmaxxing.html https://simonwillison.net/2026/Jul/22/

IMHO the iPod nano (the little puck with a touchscreen that you could clip on stuff) was the best player I ever had.

Exactly. Is that figure about the water 'flowing' through the datacenter? I want to believe they would not just dump it after use.

I agree, but like many others I'm willing to pay a fair price for that freedom and ownership, and I believe there is a customer base to be captured. And in the end there's a cost for a company to put all of those locks in place, w

I already have universal healthcare here in Canada. I just feel sorry for people living in the US who could have it too if it wasn’t for stupid political shenanigans and ideological stubbornness. Health should be a right, not a commodity so
