<p>The same tooling that you'd use. AI is not magic, it cannot know exactly how a program will run under your exact circumstances and data. Therefore, if it can use a profiler, test suite or application, or be able to read logs, just like you would, it then can make changes, evaluate them, and iterate. Personally, I've created test MCP servers that will perform actions like submit orders, have the AI capture and analyze PerfViews and Concurrency Visualizer, write out tracing data to logs... all the same stuff I was doing by hand for years.</p>

<p>I think a lot of people are upset that they bought something (an ETF or fund that tracks an index, for which has various rules for what gets included) and those rules get broken so the wealthiest man in the world who is also extremely close with the President of the US can get his company included on a shorter timeline. Yes, there's an issue with the IPO process but a) you can just buy SPCX if you wanted exposure b) even if it's not included you're getting decent exposure and c) the IPO process being broken is not the problem of the indexer.</p>

<p>As someone who used to live in lower Manhattan... yes there is. The smaller apartment sizes, the 45min - 1hr each way travel time, the difficulty loading and unloading out of a car that's not yours. Costco is totally a suburban, car dependent location phenomenon, while Amazon/FreshDirect/bodegas are much more convenient in a city.</p>

<p>It's massively cheaper. Copilot charges per request, which with some clever prompting, can lead to huge amounts of work being done at fractions of the cost of Claude Code. Millions of tokens for mere pennies. MS must be taking a huge hit somewhere, because I'm probably getting 10-20x my value out of GH relative to CC.<p>I am not locked in to Anthropic, either. I can easily switch between GPT and Gemini models based on how I think each would perform in various scenarios. That's a big win. I use a lot of design with Opus, implement with GPT 5.4.<p>Also, Github Copilot CLI is pretty much at feature parity (for the stuff that matters) with Claude Code. Using both at work and home, I don't think there's much difference in features between the two. Maybe I'm not a super power user, and just a regular dumb user, but GH doesn't seem buggy and everything I think I'd want to do with CC I can do with GH.</p>

<p>Do you seriously think that multi-millionaires drive to and from Manhattan to commute?<p>Our C-suite and top quant traders at our firm take the train, bike, or walk to the office daily. I asked around my office - no one has ever driven regularly to our office in 20+ years.<p>The reason why is because driving objectively sucks in the city.</p>

<p>> and often the better option<p>Even before congestion pricing this was the major factor. It's often quicker, more reliable, more pleasant, and has less variation in delays to ride the train/subway in NYC. Speaking from personal experience I could easily eat the congestion charge to daily commute into Manhattan, and I'd rather still take the train because I can do my mindless scrolling or read a book during that time.<p>The only time I've found that a car is better is during the weekends with a group larger than about 4 people. The train schedules are terrible, the commute time isn't bad, and the price per ticket (assuming you're coming from the outer suburbs) vs parking and tolls works out to be a wash.</p>

<p>We could all band together and have another dedicated group collect money for it. It wouldn't be optional, either, because we mostly all agree it's valuable. Of course, there would have to be yet another group that sets how much money to collect, and how to spend it.</p>

<p>> Basically everybody who wants an EV already owns a Tesla<p>The EV market is not the totality of the auto market. EVs are, in my opinion, better products than gas cars even removing environmental concerns, and thus EVs should be growing market share. Tesla shares were never expected to decline, otherwise their stock wouldn't be trading at such insane multiples. It's entirely at the feet of Tesla management that their sales are declining in CA and in the EU.</p>

<p>Even if we had the infrastructural capacity to move hundreds of millions or billions of people for that amount of time (how many airplanes would you need? where would they all stay?) the political considerations would never be feasible. Think if the asteroid would hit Central America/Mexico, and think of the politics of moving them further north into North America.</p>

<p>A) yes, probably<p>B) I don’t see this sort of leniency being offered to other drug dealers, in fact, the Trump administration wants to designate Mexican cartels as terrorist organizations.<p>C) a day 1 pardon communicates that it’s a top priority of the administration that drug dealers and cop killers (Jan 6) get freed.<p>D) he was convicted by a jury of his peers who know full well what a judge would sentence him to. Now Trump comes out to overrule that.<p>The time to change sentencing would have been pre-trial. We tried doing that, but that was a massive loser electorally.</p>
