It's about time! Adam has been stressed about revenue and long term viability of a business to support a popular CSS /UI library framework like Tailwind. Shopify was an early customer too.

PS: I like how Adam dissing on the famous Claude Speak "load bearing" with a strike-through!. Subtle, but EVERY PUN intended, hah!

Is this the same incidents that were reported by METR? [1] Dwarkesh made two episodes on these incidents [2]

> Katago (almost certainly significantly stronger than AlphaGo)

Interesting KataGo is an open sourced Go program written primarily by David Wu in C++ and recently heavily vibe coded by Claude. It's running on four Nvidia RTX-3090 GPUs with 96GB VRAM. [1]

Exactly, it burns the tokens 3000x faster, which means the budget ($$$$$$) runs out so faster it will stop super quick, not able to perform long-duration work. At 27B parameter size, the intelligence is not able to accomplish work within a short amount time. Consequently, it become not usable.

> I'm not an Amodei stan, but of all of these people he seems to have the most ethical focus. Again, not everything done perfectly and I have my gripes, but of the leaders of frontier labs, I'll vote with my money.

Amodei is NO Saint!!! He's the most savvy in drumming up the AI doomsday scenarios and haven't yet to apologized his failed forecast of Claude taking over 90% of the coding jobs.

New comment by devy in "Using Cloudflare Workers and reCAPTCHA v3 for a Static Site Contact Form"

devy — Wed, 02 Sep 2026 20:55:50 +0000

Google has reduced the free tier limit for reCAPTCHA v3 from 1 million down to 10,000 assessments per month as part of its mandatory migration to Google Cloud. [1] So basically it's NOT a viable anti-spam mechanism for many use cases any more because that 10k asessment is easily breached. Let alone the fact that you can't use recaptcha v3 unless you signs up for Google Cloud as well.

Cloudflare Turnstile is a valid alternative though. [2]

Now someone please use ChatGPT/Codex or Claude Code to rewrite the entire LibreOffice source into a single Rust binary already! Just like Jarred Sumner did for Bun [1] or Carmine Paolino did for Fastpotify [2] - granted there are some rough edges for sure, but the slim diet trimmed down and performance gains were wrothy.

Flebay has some used ones around $1.5k. I wonder how much this model MSRP brand new? Either way, $300 is a steal!

Don't conflate the existing SOTA and the future SOTA.

When OpenAI released ChatGPT 3.5 in late 2022 as free a research preview as the SOTA at the time, the model wasn't good and with a ton of hallucinations. There was no harness, context windows was small and token speed is slow. Plenty of folks said what a joke, no one can do serious work with it.

4 year later now looking back, can you imagine what AI capabilities are now? Can you imagine what AI would be capable another 4 years from today?

Keep in mind, AI improvement is not stagnant as everyone is working on Recursive Self-Improvement and trillions of dollars pouring into it. If you are betting the future on the current understanding the AI capability, I bet you will lose.

The highest in Europe might be Romania, 96% fiber coverage due to the late buildout of Internet infra.

Glad that France built it out now. From now on the fibers price will rise significantly like HBM, NAND chips, power line transformers due to the AI boom.
