I wonder if GitHub (Microsoft) is implicitly betting that enterprise demand is sticky enough to absorb these rates, especially given that Opus 4.6 “fast” was being listed at a 27x multiplier. Maybe they saw enough usage at that price point to conclude the demand is real. Or maybe the strategy is to keep the enterprise customers who can justify it while shedding heavier individual and power-user usage.

The interesting question is how long it takes enterprises to notice the capability/pricing tradeoff, and whether they respond by limiting access to the strongest models internally.

The part that worries me is that this market is still very early. Most developers and organizations are still learning how to use these tools effectively. Raising the experimentation cost this much may slow down the discovery process that makes the tools valuable in the first place.

Well, on the bright side should set China up for some easy YoY comps next year...

interesting idea about blocking reddit...

Get a computer that you can't play it on and put your gaming rig in storage (or have someone get rid of it for you). Then figure out something to fill the space.. build a new habit for example... exercise (walking/running)

Why does this need to be a news headline on Reuters?

Honestly, after seeing how poorly scientists botched modeling covid-19 infection/death rates, I just get how it's possible to model something like this which is several decades in the future and have confidence in your prediction.

lol logical arguments get flagged...

Well, as far as I know, we don't know why he didn't share it. Maybe it's because it wasn't that damning after all. Or maybe because he realized the fix was in for Biden and any amount of hooting and hollering wasn't going to make a difference. Or maybe he realized the information wasn't credible, but from what I remember, it was.

Again, who knows. Would it have made a difference if other news channels had picked up the story? Probably. Did it make a difference? Doesn't look like it.

Look, I voted for Obama 2008, voted Libertarian in 2012, and Trump 2016/2020 (for his America first policies, not his personality, which why this election was so mind blowing). My background is in Finance, specifically Hedge Funds, and I'm relatively a newcomer to watching how Politics all works. The idea that you have to stir your constituents into a craze for 4 years and feed them lies, so you don't lose power is really sad. Both sides are guilty of it.

The worst part about the Hunter/Joe Biden saga is that what they were doing isn't illegal (from what I can tell.). I'd call it corrupt and crony capitalism, among things, but doesn't look like it's illegal.

And this get to one of things I really hate about US politics. They write the rules, but don't seem to have to abide by any of them. There is always a loop hole or connection to save them. Pathetic.

Regarding Tucker, his show is the only show I watch every night. I think he does a great job at bringing light to the under belly of Washington. 'The sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness and groupthink.' Now, do I think he's perfect, no. Nobody is.

What about Hunter/Joe Biden? Was that not news worthy? Was anything about Joe Biden news worthy prior to the election? It's an embarrassment.

I hope everyone realizes the powers that took on Trump, Big Tech, Deep State, China/Russia/EU, Democrats, etc. Quite the feat that it took that much power to barely beat Trump (which is debatable until we get a handle on what happened for voting. I don't know if the election was rigged, but I wouldn't put it past them and there are some weird anomalies in the voting data).
