At least it stays in your GCP environment, AWS disclosure says that it will leave your data privacy and security boundary.

IMO, the old reddit UI wasn't, but the new one is, since they started the algo home page and showing stuff outside of your subreddits.

It doesn't matter which one. My mother mainlines BBC News which is state-owned, establishment-centrist, has no adverts or profits, but has the same effect of dialing up the viewer's fear of the outside world.

I think a lot of people are missing that this is $1500 _per tool_ which is still rather a lot of money.

The gpt-oss models are good but there's no evidence that OpenAI have ongoing development on open models.

I'm 99% sure it was one-and-done, box ticked, and now they can be mentioned in comments like this.

Curtains open, telly blaring and the big light on. You could be on any street in Britain.

Movies are just as bad, animation and vfx shops get crunched to hell. Fashion houses ahead of fashion week too.

On a new model release, you can guarantee two things are in the replies to Simon. One is your link, the other is "surely the models are being trained on this now"

What a blast from the past. It was a pretty cool time to be a teenager in 04-06 with last.fm, MySpace, iPods, Limewire and music blogs.

French and Italian languages. There are many recipes from both cuisines written in English which, I assume, will have been included.

Nice work Avi, you got a user out of this message, at least for now. The background service keeping the terminals alive is lovely stuff.

My colleagues are planning to get around this by using Conductor's big terminal mode. At which point I think it's basically just a git worktree manager?

To be honest I assumed it was the screencap software running a basic terminal env without bells and whistles that CC needs, which I've seen before. If the actual tool functions like that too, that's not great. That said, it works for them, it works for them.

It can look like that in certain conditions. The question is why are you so eager to give critique on unrelated work, appearing in a demo screencap, to someone who didn't produce it?
