Why wouldn't it move the needle? Less time spent, less frustration, more performance, more resources focused on the business?

It might be a bit CPU and RAM starved… Which in theory should be OK, but in practice you'll find production workloads that struggle because of this. Just make sure whatever you want to run on this is indeed extremely GPU-bound, or you might have bad surprises later.

Thanks for the context. Since I'm not interested in betting, I had not clicked on the grey on white About link at the bottom, which says:

> All the trains, delays, and data on this app are real.But the money isn't – because for that I'd need to move to Malta. Or Cyprus. Or Schleswig-Holstein.

New comment by Aissen in "Google restricting Google AI Pro/Ultra subscribers for using OpenClaw"

Aissen — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 08:49:57 +0000

It would be fun if Google lost its months of edge in the LLM value race because it alienated early adopters paying $250/month by using a 0-strike system with no customer support.

> 880mm^2 die

That's a lot of surface, isn't it? As big an M1 Ultra (2x M1 Max at 432mm² on TSMC N5P), a bit bigger than an A100 (820mm² on TSMC N7) or H100 (814mm² on TSMC N5).

> The larger the die size, the lower the yield.

I wonder if that applies? What's the big deal if a few parameter have a few bit flips?

New comment by Aissen in "AVX2 is slower than SSE2-4.x under Windows ARM emulation"

Having written an emulator, the conclusion was a bit less surprising. It's also probably not definitive, as it might depend on the specific hardware (and future emulator optimizations); you even say in your blog that the hardware you use is not the hardware Microsoft targeted.

Spoiler is in the conclusion:

> Yes, it is absolutely key to build your app as ARM, not to rely on Windows ARM emulation.

If anyone from Collabora Office is looking, there is a weird paragraph with syntax-colored HTML in https://www.collaboraonline.com/blog/collabora-online-now-av... "*A Note on Early Releases"

Aissen — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 13:40:30 +0000

This does not surprise me from the company that accidentally deleted the widevine L1 certificate on my phone (that never had any third party OS) during an update and could not restore it, nor would it replace the motherboard (for which it claimed it was the only possible fix).

What does Vercel get out of Next.js? Just default integration of overpriced cloud infra.

It's a bit sad to see hardware manufacturers changing the pixel layout because we weren't able to adapt modern software to do sub-pixel font rendering that works with different layouts out of the box.

Anyone want to try a prompt injection? All we need to do is to get one or two story in the front page that have a good < 80 characters prompt injection.
