Philosopher. Software developer. Would-be novelist.

I am working on an original theory to explain human behavior that would unify fragmented theories across psychology, mental health, productivity, economics, and beyond.

This would allow teaching critical thinking to the masses, ultimately leveraging it to position India as the next superpower.

In future LLMs will make buying decisions and this strategy can become viable again.

Interesting concept. Looks like zip replacement. UX improveemnt. I have one concern, can my machine natively read capsule file format? Else no one would open the shared files.

What will Shopify gain from this deal? Why everyone is buying dev tools. Earlier Anthropic bought BunJs. Can anyone explain the business model here?

Thanks for preemptively answering the question of why. And it makes sense.

We should prioritize original thinking over thinking about whether it's written by AI. A human can type motivational nonsense by hand, and also can use AI as a thinking partner for their original thesis. Which is more valuable?

The feeling that it is theoretically impossible to give everyone equal opportunity. The more I study about this topic, the more convinced I am getting about it.

Wispr flow released android version few months back but wasn't supported in my 6 year old phone so made a similar app named Floatspeak. Which motivated me to made a windows version of it and now stopped paying Wispr flow altogether.

The token plan is confusing.

From their docs "After using 10M input (cache miss) tokens of MiMo-V2.5-Pro, it is equivalent to consuming 3000M Credits, and you can still enjoy 1100M Credits of MiMo-V2.5". So it's around 12M input credit vs Earlier 60M tokens.

Everyone already said what I wanted to say. That all US companies (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, MS Copilot) have increased price recently while Chinese companies (Deepseek, Xiaomi) are reducing price.

The question is how they are managing to do so? They are supposed to struggle due to chip sanctions.

Secondly, why now? The US companies were supposed to subsidize too but now they are unable to keep up. Everyone going to usage based pricing, so it's unsustainable for them. They are well funded too.

If there are genuine hardware breakthrough reducing compute needs then that is good for the whole world I believe.

I can't use Antigravity after this upgrade, unfortunately. No option to connect WSL for both versions so completely locked out.

One good thing is I have gained so much confidence on my work. I can't surely do worse work than those smart Google engineers.

Same is true for humans too. About their personality. Constantly changing and you will never meet the same person twice in that sense.
