Too many OpenAI $200 customers switching over to Anthropic.

Hardware is hard! Because of certifications and organizations like the WEEE. There are many different acts for electronic devices world wide. In Germany you have to spend about $ 20k per month even if you did not ship any product yet - just for regulations, certificates and things you have to register for to be able to sell a electronic device.

That makes hardware hard! The manufacturing and packaging is the easy part.

Great article! I did build a open source one years ago: https://andrefiedler.de/open-source-co2-ampel/

It's on my desk and I can confirm, opening the window if it gets orange helps a lot with thinking.

Some days in the morning it shows red and I barely can't think or get awake. Opening the window and it changes instantly.

KI wird zur geopolitischen Infrastruktur. Unter dem Argument Cyber Security entstehen digitale Grenzen: Wer Zugriff auf die besten Modelle, Rechenzentren und Energie hat, verschafft sich einen massiven Vorteil.

It depends on the marked. When I did the Point-of-Sale software and Couponing stuff, it was not that important. Now I'm in a business, where marketing needs the features to sell consumer products. At least, that's what they tell all. So we have to deliver.

It depends on. There's of course code that must be deeply checked. And all shades of grey. I guess it needs experience to know when to do what. Regarding to be forced or not... There are many kinds of pressure, features, deadlines... Of course, I learned how to deal with them and when to speak up or not. My boss is paying me the AI abo. He wants to get things done as fast and as good as possible. That's his job. We have to make sure to not keep behind. Other companies bring out new features faster and faster. Sadly, that's how the world goes round. I personally would take it slower... but seems there's only one way as longs as there are a few that go as fast as possible, you have to keep up.
