This is sort of the deal with any language. I’m using go for personal projects and dotnet for paid projects.

Why? Because I don’t give time to wait for code to compile on my time and I don’t have time for people to learn a new language for review at work.

Life is good! Would recommend that split.

Maybe I’m not picturing it correctly but wouldn’t a negative price mean more money in your wallet? Or are you saying that the set price is less than it costs to produce the energy on your side?

This is off topic.

Why don’t people who release python projects ever encode the venv steps into the installer? Can’t pip just do that step for the user?

For me, it’s as much about ease of use as much as it is about minimizing attack surface area.

Also the lifetime I need the connection open. For something quick, ssh tunnel. For something normies use, reverse proxy. Ain’t trying to teach my parents about IP addresses and port numbers.

Unless I missed something. The author queries the bin in one of the examples using sqlite3.

The author instructs the OS to execute it natively my adding it as a binary format.

A legal battle is expensive and time consuming. For example they have been fighting one with Visio since 2021[0]. It’s going to court this year.

I’m not sure how well tested AGPL has been tested in court, but assuming it has, the SFC has the right to reverse engineer anything covered by the license. That will help people sooner than trying to get a court to make a decision.

I think we should reserve judgment until this lands in the hands of the people it helps.

My experience is limited to my elderly parents who have trouble seeing. With the text size Apple allows them to set it to, their phones are unreadable. Text runs off the screen in every app, 1st and 3rd party.

In their bill example, the user is told to confirm with the provider. Why not offer to call the number on the bill? Instead of telling them to use text detection, do it for them? Presumably Apple Intelligence would already have that capability. I’m afraid this will be a gimmick at best.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, the grip is good to see. Hopefully they don’t charge the apple tax on it.

Can you explain how this works? Doesn’t this also stop you from connecting to it over ssh via vs code?

> Submitters use LLMs to generate the code and reviewers use LLMs to review it.

This just like my favorite, “We can use LLMs to write the code and write the tests.”

The buddies were Anthropics April fools day stunt. Buddies were removed from a newer version of Claude code. By default Claude code updates automatically.

I am not deep in this world. What does it mean when you (LM Studio) fixed a bug in a model Google released?

I believe that it just changes the opportunity cost. There are still only 24 hours in a day. You can’t copy everything.
