Extremely token hungry though. Which will be a problem once the price goes up!

Node.js has a built in test runner and it is excellent. https://nodejs.org/api/test.html

Not sure if the runtime should be responsible for linting of type checking.

If that's OpenStreetMap data, it is missing the required attribution.

I feel a little salty about the plan changes. I wanted to upgrade to the $200 plan a day after it was blocked. Now it only includes half the usage unless for those that got grandfathered into the x20 usage.

Ahh you got me. Finished the first chaper of the 'free online' Gist of Go book, then in the second chapter it turns out the first chapter was a freebie.

The title says "Claude discovers" not "Anthropic discovers". The latter would be fair since they seemed to have funded the research. "Claude discovers" is just marketing hype.

I did exactly the same with my favorite 2014 Pebble app.

Cannot relate. I do not have notifications enabled on my Pebble.

I don't have any guilt over not having enough steps at the end of the day. But I am walking more thanks to my smartwatch.

I can start a timer in seconds when I am meditating, when I am cooking, when I am starting the watching machine. Also I have made a little app that shows me the weights and reps and sets I need to do for my powerlifting programme. I don't have to bring my phone to the gym. Lastly, I made a little app that shows me one thing I need to be doing for my morning routine or the next TODO on my todo list. A god send for someone suffering from ADHD.

‘Ads’ is a bit of a stretch. They put opt-in referral links.

> To generate the $309 billion needed to service their debt, the AI industry will need to replace 46.8 million jobs, equivalent to around 27% of the current number of jobs in the US.

Lump of labour fallacy spotted.
