Can you suggest some things foreigners could do to help the situation in Ukraine?

No Apps is such a strange choice, like really anti consumer....

When i used subagents with codex, it made tasks take literally 10x longer with a worse result.... seems unncessary.

The big thing that no one talks about will and always be having an agent help refine requirements with you and understand real world users... thats what real devs know and do - its the difference between slop and good.

Somali pirates WERE fishermen before being pirates... They turned to piracy to combat other countries fishing their waters.

The smartest thing they could have done is a platform play which is to try make their own React that was Figma native. A hard thing to do, but certainly doable if you consider where React is now...

I always thought it was weird that Figma didnt close the gap of taking a design and implementing it in code, that seems like what AI could enable too...

Didnt Opus 4.8 suddenly get more verbose mid release, as in it was released and responded normally then got annoyingly verbose weeks later?

Didnt we try ban export of cryptography at one point, surely this is going to go very badly to try ban chinese models... its totally unenforceable.

But also, another way to frame this is "Linked to" is a keyword indicating we dont know enough positive or negatively for human impact, and therefore its a long term experiment.

jeffybefffy519 — Thu, 24 Sep 2026 21:32:51 +0000

Heres a question, this threat is interesting and OpenAI is saying they are at AGI with Astra.... so can we give Astra all the papers on creatine, and all the anecdotal evidence in this thread and get it to produce any new insights to answer why people have different experiences, and why theres some reports of it being cancer fighting and why theres some that arent...?

Just feel if we are at AGI, and its amazing then we should be able to do our own research with it on these topics...

By your logic then, shouldn't algorithms be banned? If a U16 is going to turn to social media, and the feed is not in chronological order then how do we even guarantee that they will see what is happening in the moment when an algorithm is making the choice for them...

Seems more like, if they see something suspicious or are worried about it - dont go to your phone, just leave the situation as fast as possible. As usual, education and critical thinking is the answer.

Restrictions make people innovate....

Slightly similar is US sanctions on NK & Russia causing a restriction of foreign currency - so they turned to cyber crime to get it...
