It would have been extremeley nice if the original article had also included Sol and Terra in the testing.

(Also would have been nice if they included the equivalent Anthropic models for comparison as well, but it's not quite as relevant.)

Everyone has their own opinion as to what the best literature is, just like what the best music is.

But there is also some consensus. For music it would be Beethoven, Mozart, the Beatles, etc.

For literature it would include Tolstoy, Shakespeare, Cervantes, Dickens, Austen, Tolkien, and many more. I would bet it will eventually include Stephen King but it's too early to make that call now.

To save everyone time: I just tried this and while ChatGPT got it wrong, Gemini and Claude answered correctly.

Of course YMMV.

They weren’t blindingly fast then. The hardware was so much slower in the 90s. It’s difficult to remember just how slow a 5400rpm hard drive was.

My experience with any built in sandboxing for these command line tools has been awful.

What I've done instead is built a script to create a disposable virtual machine (using incus to manage it).

And then I just run the CLI inside the virtual machine and delete the vm at the end of each day.

People run marathons without shoes, so I don’t think grip would be an issue.

Nice. Can you talk a little bit about what this is written in and how the development process went?

Yes. But that's also true of laptops, tablets, cell phones and lots of other items in our houses.

For a while Amazon loved selling the smaller units for a little as a dollar (and often including several months of Amazon music for free or almost free as well).

Sell enough of these 30 dollar gadgets for a dollar and it will add up quickly.
