I worry how this will impact finding quality games.

I know people keep saying “we’ve had slop factories before AI” but this really feels different.

I scanned quite a few documents many years ago and it's been fun trying new tools every couple of years to see how good they are getting. I would say it's still not 100% there, but if you have them scanned you can basically just just keep trying and compare the results.

I think the only disappointment in recent years has been that storage has gotten more expensive instead of cheaper. I was waiting for SSDs to get cheap enough to justify moving all my documents to a fast flash array to process and search through them faster, but that doesn't seem like it will happen anytime soon.

We probably have a pretty brief window where projects like this can even be done where there's people alive who worked on the original systems. It would be nice if these were encouraged rather than being in some gray area.

I've personally seen people complain about new models getting slow after a week or so but I think it's mostly because the new model is able to briefly overcome the context collapse of their poorly managed project before it starts to collapse again from all the new work.

It's absurd how long we've made copyright terms, and it's really endangering preservation.

I don't think people realize how much dumber the models get at larger contexts and how much more the token cost is. I never let claude get about 300k and in general I don't compact, I just divide up the work in chunks where I can fit it into 300k and I try to keep really clean and slim docs and modular code bases.

It's still kind of annoying, sometimes the larger context is useful for one time tasks, but I think if you are regularly going beyond 300k you are losing a lot and probably have a poorly designed code base.

It's hell to maintain for not much gain (for a use case like this at least). As much as it's become a meme, JS and web tech in general has become extremely portable and stable.

I also don't think Anthropic bought bun to make their TUI better. They could have forked it, they bought bun because it incidentally was excellent for the way agents prefer to work and they wanted to capture that audience.

That's the only thing I haven't really been able to figure out how to do on my own. Back in the day, hosting a static site from my crappy DSL connection was basically no problem and most people who were accessing my site were probably in my timezone. Now with how big the web is and how many bots there are, I worry about the quality of self hosting without a CDN.

If anything these models should be compelled to be public since they have been trained off public data. What an absurd overreach to call this an attack.

It’s clear they are scapegoating national security and China at this point to build an anti-competitive moat.

I generally really like Anthropic’s work and models but stuff like this scares me for the future. We are positioning these companies to have too much power. The public’s life is getting worse while these companies consolidate power using data they stole from the public.

If there was more competition or these things were based on open standards you could easily switch over I might be more inclined to agree, but I think right now these companies have way way too much power.

The threat of a company deleting an account for many people would be detrimental to their lives. We are way way too dependent on corporations and in kind of tired of people being scared to regulate.

Because some things work better with trust vs convoluted security.

I think this is something a lot of computer nerds don't get (myself included at one point). It's almost like if something can be accessed we are allowed to access it and it's the fault of the person securing it. But a lot of our society works on trust and I think we'd live in a much more difficult world if everything had to be secure enough to resist any attack.

If this thing was connected to the internet I get it, but you already need physical access to the meter why add another layer of security on top of that? If someone has wants to mess up your power and they have physical access there's plenty of ways they can do it without wireless communication.

It makes me look stupid in code interviews because I commit very little to memory but professionally it's helped me catch a lot of syntactical upgrades.
