All these marketing facts and figures sound great. Nits and contrast ratio and True Tone. The blackest blacks. All great.

Those greasy finger marks are really going to dazzle like never before.

I can’t be the only one who recoils in horror at the thought of TOUCHING THE SCREEN! It’s like going to the toilet and not washing your hands after. I’m sure people do it, but..ew.

Took me a little while to figure out this was a llm harness for coding (also called an agent, I suppose, but that term seems overloaded and ambiguous to me)

There are many of these available, alongside the provider ones.

Are there any benchmarks which help me decide which ones I should try over the standard codex/claude?

Here’s an idea I would love to see play out. Have one of the labs train a new model, using cutting edge architecture, on a whole lot of data and math papers from before 1905. Then see if it can come up with, or even understand, Einsteins theory of relativity.

UIs are great, until you can’t see the UI.

Words are a great UI. They can be easily converted into audio and haptics. We already have many systems in place that do exactly this with words.

Sure, pretty graphics are nice, but their sole intent should be to convey information. A User Interface that does not allow a person to easily have information conveyed to them is a bad interface.

The modern AI world isn’t perfect, but for a large portion of people who have accessibility needs, it’s absolutely a positive impact on their life in a way that no single technology has been until now.

Surely someone instructed the agent, which led to the reported outcomes. Even indirectly. The agents, as advanced as they are, didn’t spring forth under its own volition.

I came to say the same thing. Zero info about how I would use this once it’s cloned.

How do you update Claude Code to enable this? It’s listed under models, but says I have to update for 5.5. I run Claude update and it says I’m on the latest version.

Infuriating.

This is simple marketing?

If I’m understanding correctly, this will work well for self driving cars?

I guess this is unavoidable on today’s internet, but…reading a story that decries the (admittedly really bad) data gathering techniques of an advertiser, from a site that itself is plastered with adverts…I don’t know the right word here, but it feels a bit shit.

Although I’m glad this is getting the visibility it deserves. I hope this hurts LG where it matters and sends a signal to other manufacturers, but I doubt it.

I really appreciate this info. I went old school when I hacked my own esp32 bikeputer together with a wheel magnet and reed switch. It was fun to put together, but pretty janky with wires tapped up and it wouldn’t survive any off-roading.

I wasn’t aware of the more modern ANT+ approach. Looking forward to a V2.

There’s no mention of the wheel sensor. How does it get the bike telemetry?
