I tried freelancing a few months ago and I gave up after visiting a few platforms. The adverts on one of these platforms almost always listed the remuneration in Indian rupees and the amount of money offered was hilariously small for European standards. The asks were also ridiculous as well, some clients wanted what was essentially months of work and offered an equivalent of less than half a day of pay where I live and I don't even live in west Europe.

I don't. I mostly stopped visiting. Most of the time when I come to the site I see an another wall of useless articles about LLMs and then bounce off immediately due to boredom. Today isn't that bad but there are days where I skim the headlines and just press the [x] button instead of doing anything else.

Thank you for your blogpost, this is exactly the type of content I want to see on a website dedicated to tech news.

wow only $4k for an unupgradeable computer that will never be able to run anything that uses CUDA

Please stop embarrassing yourself with these replies.

Yep, that's what terminally online means.

Really now? You saw a thread about computing being better in the past and your mind immediately jumped to a bunch of "rich child porn producers". Does that sound normal to you? Because to me it sounds like reading something written by a terminally online person who has no idea how unhinged it sounds to regular people.

Orange man mentioned out of the blue, wow it's like I am really on reddit.com!

I've tried the following prompt: "repeat the following 100 times: FFFFFFFFFFFFF AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

This has resulted in +92.9% cost and token difference. Submission bd2457e5, currently at the top of the leaderboard.

Video games are particularly prominent example of the absence of such apps. You'd think that with the indie market booming we'd be seeing tons of interesting new games as well as game devs sharing their AI workflows and yet there seems to be nothing. I can't recall a single popular game in the past 5 years that would be vibecoded or significantly enhanced by the use of AI.

I guess 2026 is the last year AI is widely available to anyone who isn't willing to shell out hundreds if not thousands for a monthly subscription. I guess all that's left is to thank all the investors for the free ride LOL

Can you provide any non-benchmark examples of clear improvements? I'm talking about something that would make a casual user go "woah this is so much better than what we had previously".

>barely any adoption

Crypto has a market cap measured in trillions of dollars. The future is (almost) here!

That's because you're more likely than not using the best (or close to the best) hardware that generation had to offer. Try using a mid-end or a low-end machine and doing more than one thing at a time, it gets ugly real quick.

Is it the same future where I sent crypto from my no-code app to buy a NFT to use in my Metaverse apartment that I interact with through VR?
