so if there's no user reports and fable isn't shipping in the middle of the night, then it's an outage?

+1 to Fastmail, I've used them for almost 8 years now, never ever have I had an issue with them.

I'd even say AI can act as a good tutor as well, I often use it to learn about a concept and then have it prompt me 1-2 days later in quiz form (you have to specific that multiple choice questions shouldn't come back as correct answer first ) which helps you solidify concepts.

that's the plan for now, I just haven't had the M1 Pro slow down/hang/lag enough to give it up. It's a mid-range M1 Pro with 32GB of ram, works for me for dev work, I don't run any local LLM or resource intensive things on it. Battery only has 250 cycles on it so it's not like it dies off-charger.

I have an M1 Pro as well but my next computer will be a split setup mainly because I realized that I'm most often working / focusing on hard things while at the desk and just browsing / checking in on things when I'm away from the desk so I'm thinking something like:

- a low end Macbook Pro or Air

- Mac Studio, mid-to-high specs

I always wondered if these text messages are extremely cheap or free for these spammers to send? In my experience, sending texts costs around 0.5 to 1 cent so are they hoping after spending a few bucks in spend, they'd get a sucker?

I used to have an auto-expanding snippet that would insert the entire wikipedia entry for the Tiananmen Square massacre and then I'd never hear back from them. This was mostly when the Chinese bots were doing the pig butchering scam.

Sonnet is way faster than Opus when doing everyday tasks, I think on the subscription plans it's a better option when you need something done faster than Opus' long thinking sessions.

I think this is a direct competitor to Dot and Muse, I've been using Muse more recently and it's surprising how little context/memory managment you ahve to do when it's just one long thread.

I would love to use it but that lowercase M really bothers me so maybe it would be perfect for me to fork and build my own version of it
