I've noticed my bar for "fast" has gone down quite a bit since the o1 days. It used to be one of the main things I evaluated new models for, but I've almost completely swapped to caring more about correctness over speed.

Surprised the `satisfies` operator wasn't called out

I'd also like to second this and probably will in every Zed post. This is the primary reason I'm not ready to switch to Zed just yet.

GitHub seems to be down as a whole.

I think it's person to person, I've never had any stomach issues at all.

Also wish they would put more emphasis on autocompletions, that's like 99% of what I use AI for is basically a better Intellisense

I'm a hypocrite because I'm now currently paying for Cody due to their integration with the new OpenAI o1-preview model. I find this model to be mind blowing and it's made me actually focus on the more mundane tasks that come with the job.

Sorry that's probably because I used the moving excuse very often when I was younger to get them to shut up.

Plus it's wild they staff an entire agency to handle these types of calls. Talk about a loser's mindset.

Conversely there is a gym in my town that was a month to month subscription with moments notice cancellation. They'd even pro-rate your remaining time back to you. I ended up joining and cancelling those gyms a lot through college years, but I'm much more willing to rejoin if it was easy to cancel.

Yeah Spotify removed one of my family members from my 5-person subscription (only using 3 slots) so I immediately cancelled my subscription and had to deal with a lot of manipulative tactics to not cancel. This kind of behaviour 1, shouldn't be legal and 2, shouldn't be rewarded. I have plenty of Spotify alternatives, so this kind of behavior ultimately signals a floundering company resorting to hacks.

Same with SSNIs, I get brain zaps if I don't take my medication early enough in the day. It can come with nausea too, so missing a dose can potentially ruin my evening.
