This is more on brand on the evil shortcomings that comes with letting effective altruism run unchecked and honestly is worse than average "Corporate America". And the Tech/AI Space have been warned many times. Getting paid for providing a compute/token hungry model and still intentionally sabotaging your customers and poisoning their workflows is something that should be unforgivable and frankly ground for antitrust prosecution.

Mistral seems to focus on some niche LLM model tooling that are somehow very needed in certain cases. Can't forget their OCR multimodal embedding model!

Surprised this flew under the radar here. Was expecting thoughts from people who used this and compares it with OpenClaw.

The biggest drawback is no Thunderbolt. The biggest sell for Macs right now is the ability to daisy chain them with the new RDMA update. A used M1 Mac Mini is more valuable than this.

Ehh, Iran funds Hezbollah which routinely threatened Cyprus with war if it didn't concede maritime boundaries with reserves of natural gas.

What about a better deal: Scientific knowledge shouldn't be a for-profit venture to pursue.

Last year o3 high did 88% on ARC-AGI 1 at more than $4,000/task. This model at its X high configuration scores 90.5% at just $11,64 per task.

General intelligence has ridiculously gotten less expensive. I don't know if it's because of compute and energy abundance,or attention mechanisms improving in efficiency or both but we have to acknowledge the bigger picture and relative prices.

Deepseek v3.2 is that cheap because its attention mechanism is ridiculously efficient.

If Arabic had to cater to afro-asiatic dialects phonemes then the script would have been even more messier. I'm a speaker of one, and my dialect is heavily influenced by the indigenous Tamazight language. and I think this is why many of the Amazigh community were and some still disappointed with the neo-Tifinagh script. While it carries symbolic weight, it doesn’t offer practical readability, phonemic clarity and tech accessibility of a modern script that Tamazight deserves. Latin script, ironically, fits Tamazight much more naturally.

Unlike WebMD, Healthline doesn't seem to be losing traffic: https://www.semrush.com/website/healthline.com/overview/

I don't know what differentiates them since the content is apparently similar but I suspect a lot of websites like this will diversify their distribution channels and pivot accordingly.

Honestly I don't think I can see China taking Taiwan militarily. They witnessed how the world isolated Russia economically after the aggression on Ukraine and especially since their economy relies on exports. They don't have much to win other than some geopolitical credit at the expense of their manufacturing and technology sector. China is conducting a policy where they'll cripple Taiwan's will to seek independence from just sheer soft and economic power. They offer fantastic perks to Taiwanese from the oppurtinity to work visa free, access to credit/mortgage with no social credit screening and ability to invest with no usual red tape.

The Taiwanese are being told China is an aggressor but nowadays they see the opposite. Also if China invades it'll destroy every goodwill they had built to win over Taiwanese hearts and won't get control over TSMC supply chain market since the latter promised to torpefy their fabs before China gets its hand on them.
