I was curious about this, as I’ve seen it so many times for multiple providers, especially Mistral and Google.

Clicked sign in, was presented with a sign up form, got a free account. From there could upgrade to pro plan or pay-as-you-go.

I agree it was perhaps too hidden, but calling it hard is not fair I think.

Sort of like the automata itself, actually!

Where are you seeing any mention of Zig? All I see is TypeScript?

I think it's a paradox in the same way that the non-reverse is. The spending might go down more than it's proportion of price increase.

An example not anchored in anything: If public transit costs x, I'll use it every day. If public transit suddenly costs 2x, I'm not gonna use it every other day, I'll rather find an alternative and use 0.

I'd agree it is about the Neo in the sense that the device and the talk around it obviously triggered this post.

I don't think the author is exactly bashing the Chromebook. I'm reading it in that the author praise an open ecosystem where you have flexibility and the choice to "take off the guard rails" and go where the device was not originally made to take you.

There's an argument to be made that it is ironic that Apple is the example of this, but to me that shows why I _still_ like MacOS, when all the other variants (iPadOS and iOS) are entirely locked down.

A bit besides the point, but an FDM printer is definitely not good enough to reproduce these somewhat convincingly. That being said, a cheap-ish resin printer will probably do the job, and they are generally in the same price range.

Not at all saying it's a conspiracy, I just think it's a lack of transparency.

I get why, but it would give me more confidence if they would tell me about everything.

I get the feeling that all "serious" businesses have manual processes for publicly facing status pages, for political reasons.

I don't like it.

It's very practical when you use a lot of different devices. It's nice to use native built in email apps, but when using multiple different OSes and device types, it can be very annoying to have the different clients play nice with each other.

While I do think that's true, I'd say a more apt analogy is that for humans each model will produce fairly similar results on each prompt, but it helps having 8 billion different models running.

I'd also argue that we tend to have a larger context. What did you have for dinner? Did you see anything new yesterday? Are you tired of getting asked the same question over and over again?

Could be because of shared clipboard between devices?

Very well put.

I've just recently set off time to have a few extended coding sessions, and the results are all over the place.

Guided in a good way for well defined tasks, it has saved me days if not weeks. Given more vague, or perhaps unreasonable tasks, it will quickly devolve into just delivering something, anything, no matter how "obviously" wrong it is.

It is actually meaningful though, as it says something about the origin of the materials. Synthetic could still mean that it was based off of animal products.

I really love the channel, but I can't help to feel that he was held back by his, ehm, limited knowledge of cooking.
