> There is zero chance any human who put so much effort into creating something would remain silent while it became a $2 trillion phenomenon

I'd argue this is the best reason to remain silent as much as one can.

Coincidently, Claude Code appears to be down right now (in Europe West at least).

Everytime I hear of something X Azure announcement, that something just seem to break right away.

I know correlation is not causation, but my opinion of Azure is already too damn low to not link those two events.

The ability for some people to perpetually move the goalpost will never cease to amaze me.

I guess that's one way to tell us apart from AIs.

That's the plan. But if they do it right away people will revolt.

Same here!

I found now was a good time to build that NAS I wanted to have a long time ago, and the first thing I installed on it was a Navidrome server so I could listen to my curated music everywhere.

Hopefully we're entering the era of people ditching megacorp craps and switching to personal cloud solutions.

YouTube will be very hard to replace though.

Maybe that's what they're trying to achieve with Windows as well.

Does this only affect money invested after June 15th, or does this also devalues money invested before this date? If you don't invest anymore money in the index during the interim rebalancing period refered to by the author, then one should be alright. Right? It's really expensive to get all your marbles out, I'd rather not do it if I don't have to.

EAGER is not enough. EAGER only guarantees one side of the conjoined triangles of success. They teach this at business school.

The meaning is not in the numbers themselves, but in how they each relate to one another.

Also those are not mere numbers here, but vectors. Dimensionality and orthogonality is key to define complex relationships.

Depends on how many of those gambling addicts there are.

If a huge enough portion of the population try to solve the statue quo of their economic problems by betting all on red, that's not gonna be great for society, including those who don't gamble.

Spatial awareness was also a huge limitation to Claude playing pokemon.

It really seems to me that the first AI company getting to implement "spatial awareness" vector tokens and integrating them neatly with the other conventional text, image and sound tokens will be reaping huge rewards. Some are already partnering with robot companies, it's only a matter of time before one of those gets there.

First the fact that she received the price when a ton of people where far more deserving of it in terms of raw achievements toward peace. Then the fact that she would sell the price and what it represents for a slim (read inexistent)k shot at being instated as the president of Venezuella, where I read that the majority of people have a very unfavorable opinion of her. And finally the fact that she would sell away the Peace price to Donald Trump, the very same person considering invading Greenland for aura farming purposes!

I think they have to shut down the Noble peace price at this point, there's no recovering from such an embarrassing turn of events.

Our whole current civilization could be construed as advanced alien tech servicing a humongous tribe of moronic apes. The fact that one fifth of the internet is dedicated to porn just speaks for itself. Just thinking about all the tech involved, from the capturing of footage using highly sophisticated camera, to the transmission over kilometers of fiber optics, to the stokage into redundant and consistent databases backed by highly optimized hardware and brilliantly engineered file format, to the distribution to your phone device, which is literally a personal computer that fits in your palm.. all of that just to show porn to satisfy your monkey brain.

It seems almost absurd to what length humanity has gone just to satisfy it's primitive needs.

You imperatively need to try Claude Code, because it absolutely does that.

I guess in the end the journalist didn't feel necessary to impact his readers with punchy one line stats and bold infographic-ready layouts, considering he opted for the first draft.
