I don’t even know who this is marketed towards.

If their intention is to target the general public, then I think they're out of touch with reality, and it doesn’t seem targeted at AI enthusiasts either.

Mmm... I think I missed that part.

If Mythos is so smart, how come Anthropic does dumb shit like this every week?

Did OpenAI's order actually kickstart the "panic" over RAM?

Are they really such a big RAM buyer?

AFAIK, Flutter has had a good, capable CLI since the beggining. You've never needed to install Android Studio to use Flutter.

Much better than Claude.

I've never hit the quota on Codex.

On Claude (Code), I used to hit it every other day before switching to Codex.

Isn't your first parapraph an example of YouTube's algorithm underfitting though?

AFAIK, all current versions of Android have Google Play Services. It's an essential part of the "official" Android.

If you run GrapheneOS, LineageOS or whatever, then it's not real Android, and the entire problem of your OS restricting you from installing apps does not exist.

> Lastly, humans use way less energy to solve these in fewer steps,

Not if you count all the energy that was necessary to feed, shelter and keep the the human at his preferred temperature so that he can sit in front of a computer and solve the problem.

I'm not OP, but I do get annoyed by bad car physics on movies.

The worst offenders are brake sounds not correlating to the car movement, engine sounds not correlating to the car's acceleration, nonsensical car deceleration while braking, and steering wheel not correlating to car steering.

In my opinion, he asks the right questions and lets the guests speak, which is something that can't be said about the rest of tech podcasts.

For example, at some point I grew very tired of the superficiality of the questions that Lex Friedman asks his very technical guests. He seems to be more interested into taking the conversation into a philosophy freshman's essay about technology instead of talking about technology itself.

Hearing the Dwarkesh podcast was a breath of fresh air in that regard.
