Personally believe Jack has done more harm than good for his companies lately. It's time he resign.

agreed, my F500 company switched off claude code to copilot in 30 days. All 5k+ engineers. That is the fastest migration i've ever witnessed. This includes switching all our agents from Claude SDK to Copilot SDK.

JavaScript is very fast and easy for UI rendering. If it works for web apps it’d also work for the terminal. Sure it’s bloated but it’s fine. The dev velocity of JavaScripts is orders better than rust.

Mura Murati was CTO but not the AI lead. Her role was mostly organizational not scientific.

He was hired to go to meetings and state “I’m vint cerf, I work at Google” then blab for 2 mins and introduce the actual speaker for a meeting/conference.

Similar ish to an influencer

We use an insurance model. Get upset how insurance works. Then complain it’s broken. Either it’s insurance or it’s wealth redistribution.

I'm perfectly happy at claude opus 4.6. All improvements since then have not meaningfully improved my day to day. If i can get 4.6 on my laptop for 5-10k, i'd gladly start shifting my ~1k/month Anthropic spend over.

Some of the harness even let you run a local model for most things, and only pay for the latest frontier models when needed, which cuts down cost drastically.

Not necessarily, inference speed also has huge time aspect. For example anthropic takes nearly twice as long as OpenAI models for my tasks with both having similar success rates.

The top U.S. officials do the same when traveling to any country. Everyone does this to everyone else.

Saab uses the Bombardier Global 6500 here. Which is entirely manufactured in Canada. This is less politics and more about economics

Not a valid excuse without knowing what their historical growth rate has been. And how much of the instability is load related.

Makes prior assumptions that getting tens of gigs of ram is cheap thrown out the window. Would likely lead to super fast SSDs such as optain being way more valuable

Not really I’d not call Google the safest/most popular choice for AI or Cloud.

If you've ever built software, you'll know that regressions are all too common. Especially when AI/ML is involved.

It's likely they patch this and cause 2 other bugs in the process.

New comment by bushbaba in "If AI writes your code, why use Python?"

bushbaba — Tue, 12 May 2026 02:42:33 +0000

Cool to see my hunch be backed by data. Python is a scripting language with OOP bolted on. Means there’s not really a styling consistency that other languages have, with things tending to look like PHP, a collection of various scripts that invoke one another

bushbaba — Sun, 03 May 2026 03:25:16 +0000

i'd argue Waymo is "1 Driver", and after they get a cumulative 4 points in 1 year, then Waymo would no longer be allowed to drive in the state of California

New comment by bushbaba in "Google banks on AI edge to catch up to cloud rivals Amazon and Microsoft"

bushbaba — Mon, 27 Apr 2026 04:57:55 +0000

Google banked on "Edge" for IoT as well, prior to that it was their network edge is better use them from compute. It's a failed strategy that won't work this time either.
