Alcohol consumption was already in decline before the massive increase in GLP-1 drug use. As someone who used Mounjaro, I think that's only the tip of the iceberg.

When on these drugs, you simply have no desire for such things, and I'm a beer and wine lover. Now that I've stopped, I'm slowly drinking again, but I feel my taste has changed.

I don't know if it was the drugs or the time that passed, but I simply can't drink or have the same desire as before (it could be my age, too, lol).

Since you conveniently stopped at the beginning of the story, let me finish it for the sake of clarity.

In 2018, the president was Michel Temer, not Bolsonaro. Temer had been Dilma Rousseff's vice president and took office after she was impeached in 2016. Dilma, by the way, was Lula's handpicked successor. That December, Temer signed Law 13.756, which legalized sports betting but left the regulation for later.

That regulation came under Lula: on December 29, 2023, he signed Law 14.790, which set a licensing fee of up to R$ 30 million and authorized betting companies to operate legally in Brazil.

So, technically speaking, it started with a president elected on Dilma's ticket and was sealed by Lula.

Recipe for winning: introduce a problem, watch society get destroyed by it while you profit from it, then when a big portion of the poor population has too much debt because of the problem you legalized, ban it and offer a solution a couple of months before the election. Save the people, get elected. Win win

I think specs are incredibly valuable for who's writing/developing the software as a thought exercise, and pretty much useless for anyone else, especially after you ship it as it'll always get outdated very quickly.

GPT 5.6 Luna is ten times cheaper than GPT 4o and outperforms it. I genuinely don’t think Luna is more expensive to serve than GPT 4o.

If you were charging $10 per month per user for your SaaS when GPT 4o was launched, you can easily charge $5 now and increase your profit.

I’m not sure why you believe things will become more expensive.

Is anyone using DSv4 for their agents that is not related to writing code? Curious about use cases specially for someone using gpt-5.4 mini for classification, categorization, etc

I always admired people who spent hours configuring their local setup, but this was never me. For me I was always looking for the one script setup that would just get me 80% home and that was good enough. I’ve never had the patience to configure my vim or tmux bindings so I’d always use what out there. It’s not that I think it doesn’t matter but I could never find the motivation to spend that amount of time with it. I guess I always preferred to get from someone who already spent the time on. Open source is beautiful

My point is why the sudden change in tone? I’m not dismissing the models’ capabilities.

Yes, this makes a lot of sense, but it’s just very amusing to see. 2 months ago, the world was about to end, now not so much.

Isn’t it just hilarious that a model that seemed so superior to Fable but didn't get doomsay marketing from Anthropic got released without any issues? In theory, this was supposed to be AGI level according to Anthropic, yet here we are, just a normal Friday.

+1. I've been only using Sonnet/Opus these days for UI work because GPT 5.5 just can't do any of that. Its just really terrible. Eager to give this one a try.

Thanks for the reply, Atty. So I guess I'm holding it wrong?

For some reason, I can't use the camera while in Live mode. The only option I see is the plus item, which does show the camera, but when I open it up and ask "Are you seeing my camera?" it will always say no and recommend me to open it.

Feels like the official camera icon does not show up for me? iPhone 13, ChatGPT Pro subscription.
