<p>being able to replicate it in the open means that there's nothing special about frontier models.<p>Frontier models would have to do something extraordinary or unique, or unreplicatable, because clearly there is no moat, and US companies are sitting on huge nvidia valuations and get surprised when competitors beat them.</p>

<p>this reminds me of some programmers' blog where he talked about the line between when software does something helpful automatically for a user, vs the line of where it nags you to make decisions it could have made itself.</p>

<p>so - sometimes systemd's build is reliable, sometimes it causes problems. Are these good additions and do they solve real problems, or are they just for cohesion of systemd itself or introduce problems?</p>

<p>I think he doesn't need to understand the technology to point out the books are cooked. a business can sink in either way: the technology flops or the finances flop. he's arguing the /finances/ would flop. he doesn't argue that the /technology/ would flop, only that they can't come up with the money to pay their debters.</p>

<p>I think the earlier commenter is right. If a parent fails to... well... "parent" that's on them. Locking down the internet to republican-approved sites only is not the answer.</p>

<p>musk's public image is well known, and the statement is reflecting a useful heuristic / business sense; some customers really would use claude less knowing that it's buddies with musk now. Your own immaturity leaks through. I would say that the one weakness for OP is that people okay with using claude but not okay with grok might be a different size overlap than expected (either more people fine with both, or more people disjoint, or it just doesn't factor in for people).</p>

<p>This is kinda... rude. Like saying that a GUI doesn't serve a purpose when people could read the TTY.<p>CI gives you areas for your bash scripts to run in self-contained small runs, that may trigger other runs, in a repeatable fashion on a clean environment, on a GUI anybody in your team can see. It gives you quick integrations into things.<p>CD lets you repeatedly deploy - without forgeting a step that was only known to Phil, the guy that retired three years ago, remembering all the steps and doing something dependably.<p>Or... you could do bash scripts? <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40SnEd1RWUU" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40SnEd1RWUU</a> (Just use a VPS, bro)</p>
