Nope, I never saw that one posted

And, how does that make you feel?

In contrast: A few years ago I was hiking on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). One of the few rules to follow there is to explicitly leave no trace, in respect to nature and others.

Then I'm interested if there are any facts as to what ZDR actually means?

Need to give that a try then. What's your experience so far? Also in terms of cost/benefit?

My current hypothesis is that the $150 Claude Max subscription - of which I barely hit the limits anyways, even though I used it non-stop at work - still is very cost effective.

If the price of Claude Max increased significantly (say 2-3x), and my business would balk at paying the subscription, then I'd look for an alternative.

> There are a lot of government jobs I know of that are absolutely air-gapped. Your computer has basically no internet access, everything is stored on-prem.

I wonder if that's because they don't know better or because of a lack of trust or costs?

All good, no offense from my side, apologies for the disturbance if it caused any. Generally would have just been curious if people still use tab completion much? Virtually all people I know have switched to Claude Code or Codex. I also read recently that Boris Cherny (CC creator) deleted his IDE. Of course that's marketing, but it shows the current state quite directly. So I'm wondering what your dev workflow looks like? Any why/when you use tab completion instead of coding agents.

Agree. I also wonder how zero e.g., Claude Enterprise ZDR really is, and what their data pipeline actually looks like.

On-premise (1960-2010) -> Cloud (2010-2026) -> On-premise (2026+)?

Isn't tab completion long dead?

Looking at venture funding, it's definitely true. That doesn't mean other problems don't exist or aren't worth solving. But the concentration of (competing) capital and talent is insane.

Exactly this. I think valuations and the AI market could get stirred up if:

- We get an open source Opus 4.8 equivalent and pair it with an open source coding agent

- Running this OS stack becomes cheaper than what frontier model providers charge (see OS model prices on OpenRouter vs. frontier lab prices)

- This happens across verticals (i.e. not just software)

The first “DeepSeek moment” didn’t do much damage back in the days, but I wouldn’t be surprised if a similar moment becomes a lasting, effective, cheaper alternative.

I experienced a similar interaction recently, where this principle was hard to apply, when I was emailing with a CTO / hiring manager who had some "deeper" screening questions. It was essentially:

1. HM: AI generated email with "tailored" questions

2. Me: AI assisted response with answers (I confess)

3. HM: AI generated email with a "thoughtful" response + invite

4. Me: AI generated "thank you & looking forward" response ...

Looking back at the thread, I have to laugh and cry at the same time. It's so obvious and sad.

I lost a camera recently and set up a Claude Cowork daily scheduled task to check if it finds my camera on a few marketplaces - Claude also goes through all the images and checks if it can see the serial number, which is engraved in the body. No luck so far, but we keep trying! It was incredibly easy to set up and uses my Chrome browser so it's logged into most platforms already.

Reminds me of a few parallels, mainly the attention economy [0] and The Social Dilemma documentary [1]

And what does the iPhone have to do with that? What are the hypotheses? Can't tell from the abstract at least

Lock-in / switching costs are increasingly concerning me. I am using Claude for a good year now and have been accumulating so much "knowledge" in there by now. If Claude became less favorable in terms of price/performance in the future, that would worry me. I've started to think about a distributed solution, where my storage is detached from the inference, but currently Claude is still the way to go for me. Wondering if anyone has similar concerns?

I'm curious as to what they could have done at what point in time to avoid this? Or was it "unavoidable"?

Apple managed to stay ahead of the competition for years now, but I guess the iPhone and Macs are just more complex products and revolve around an ecosystem, so not really comparable I guess. Still, I'm fascinated by the GoPro "case". I had a Hero 3 back in the days and loved it!

Curious what defines a retro camera for you? You mean a digital camera that imitates some analog feel?
