<p>the designs shown by op are <i>wayyy</i> out there. the ones i've grown up with were much more spartan in comparison. just having any lights, forget the ones used for actual lighting, remains a foreign concept to me. these ones look like the lighting and looks have higher priority than the core function.<p>for me just having a brushless motor and a remote was good enough lol. maybe smart home functionality nowadays perhaps.</p>

<p>quite interesting to see the public discourse over ethics of the current buzzword. meanwhile people have been happily getting mad rich through software companies making money through addiction, ads and surveillance throughout the last couple decades.<p>also, all of this seems like crying wolf as usual, which won't help for when we finally get there. lowkey, following this noise is getting as horrible as getting all your news from linkedin posts.</p>

<p>this release could be an email or a website post. they happen to do a devday so i understand the formal announcement i suppose.<p>meanwhile the downgrade to the 200 plan, while not as outrageous as github copilot, is just not good pr fwiw. the base number, i.e. what plus users get, is arbitrary as it is, so there was no need to break the appearance of "20x". using the efficiency excuse is not helping here lol. same as further segmentation of pro plans with ultrafast mode.</p>

<p>most people don't understand hybrids i believe, and this video [1] (aptly titled) explains well how they work.<p>plug-in hybrid don't make sense to me based on the op's experience, but the regular hybrids (where you don't charge the battery) makes perfect sense today, more than ever arguably. same tech as f1 cars fwiw (not that this season they are being very favoured)<p>[1] <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnUFH5GX_fI" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnUFH5GX_fI</a></p>

<p>a lot of the discourse and mania around this topic reminds of of the movie <i>don't look up</i>.<p>while not my cup of tea and not going to rewatch it, i see a repeat of a lot of the ways people react to "world-changing" topics.<p>or in other words, a lot of hand-waving since past few years is only going to be crying wolf when maybe we ever get there. perhaps before nuclear fusion or gta 6!</p>

<p>we got access to their platform from work. the "best" model, or the one i've used the most so far is GLM-5.2!<p>for all the promise, i would temper my expectations for a frontier model for coding or general purpose. but for niche use cases (document parsing, voice*, etc.) and as a platform to handle finetuned versions, etc. for small-ish pilots, i can see the value of partnering with them.<p>if the core model could be any open-weights solution out there, the moat dissolves really quickly.</p>

<p>As a free user for several years, the MCP integration was exactly something I was looking forward to for getting a rough cut!<p>Sadly, things are not quite as straightforward for non-Studio. For one, you need to be a paying customer to get access to the new feature. Moreover, a community-based solution [1], which previously worked for all users, have now artificial limitation in implementing automation for Free users.<p>Quite a shame really but maybe it will trickle down over time (like expanding export resolution support). Regardless, a much more open implementation than Adobe, who'd like you to pay for yet another chat window.<p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp#free-edition-in-app-bridge" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/samuelgursky/davinci-resolve-mcp#free-edi...</a></p>

<p>nebula is nice, and a lot of its founding creators are on my sub list.<p>however, a lot of creators in it had direct ownership. i wonder how it works for those who joined later on and may not share the same.<p>one of the creators used to be super-active, however now switched the style of videos (completely fine and up to the creator), but now it has gone to radio silence for a better part of a year.<p>maybe the current creator economy is <i>so</i> bad that once you can get a gig like nebula, it pays you enough to stop the treadmill of churning out content.</p>

<p>it happens to be a title well-known but also natively supported. for a wide sea of games and their hostility towards open standards such as vulkan, we get a handful of games supported in their platform through partnerships. in the end of the day don't hold your breath for their involvement unless the game publisher does all the work.</p>

<p>very ironic but easily explainable. as they sell their own integrated platform now, with server rack partners behaving like graphics cards oems now.<p>to be able to maximize customized solutions, they would like to own the entire stack which is not already commodified. the cpu remains the only final frontier in this.<p>there are always side-effects possible, but i wonder if all these efforts can be applied outside of ai ever.</p>

<p>convenient how they hide the older generation pricing by default.<p>the new price is welcome but still 60% more expensive than 5.4 (which is now comparable to 5.6-terra).<p>i conveniently also leave out the "-pro" tiers, which was comically expensive. but i feel like openai consider them suitably comparable to sol, and it must be them offering a huge bargain.</p>

<p>context: working in tech consulting with non-tech industry partners.<p>outside of coding scenarios, anthropic is just not quite the best choice for regular folks.<p>depending on the cloud/office stack used by the company, the userbase is better poised to use the native ai offering than moving to anthropic and connecting everything with them. same goes for third party guys trying to tie it all together.<p>not to discount them or their features, but beyond small companies or startups, we don't see the same levels of adoptions now nor maybe in the near future.<p>those asking us to build genai solutions for them also do not choose anthropic first over the main model offered by their current CSP. anthropic made itself available across the board finally, but it was already too late for most projects planned out for the upcoming quarters. also, we don't use the absolute biggest model nor instantly migrate to the latest one. the insane price jumps do not help with the same. especially when we quote something that may no longer be true down the line.<p>aside: good luck to the FDE folks hired by the frontier labs. i wonder if they would really get to handle large company-wide projects in practice.</p>
