Yeah, the right mental model might be:

- The donor class is really in charge, and completely unaccountable

- Public servants are our representatives in a fight against them

- Protecting them from exploitation by the donors is in our interest

I only use Fable when "knowing about more stuff" is important (like research, exploring ideas), but I find Opus 5.5 writes and expresses itself more clearly and is reliable for anything I throw at it, so I use it much more.

It's possible Fable is better, but since it word salads more quickly, it's hard to tell.

Were I thinking of giving money to a cause, I would consider it a good thing that $20-100k of it wasn't going to building a website that they could otherwise build nearly for free. I'd rather my money go toward solving the core problem they're raising the money for.

Round trip latency for RME devices (widely considered the best in the industry) is around 3ms, so this is indeed "very low latency".

You might be thinking of latency of the converters, which is normally sub-ms.

Reminds of vintage Meyer-Gorlitz or Zeiss Planar. I'm kinda into it.

A few design bugs in the mobile layout (Chrome)

And, they have been. Nefarious activity is hidden from view as a rule.

I love this question. If history is a guide, some version of that is what will happen (employment doesn't seem to go down, despite technological progress and population + economic growth).

I suspect the root cause is that it's harder and scarier to imagine good outcomes. It exposes us to disappointment, and when you do it publicly, it looks "crazy".

Another explanation is that there's no direct consumer for "more." Individuals, corporations and states are not in themselves interested in "a larger amount of science," or anything analogous, despite the fact that they would all benefit ambiently.

The net effect is that it's only "safe" to claim reduced risk (i.e. lower costs).

I do the same, but delegate to codex instead via the /smux skill. It's expensive, but I get one long-running Claude context window and one frequently compacting codex, and this saves me from needing to re-gather context all the time.

Per the OP's technique, I'll use Fable for intensive planning moments, then switch back to opus when things are going well.

Nice work. Excited to check this out.

Arrived at a version of this view as well and building one on Elixir/Ash.

I suspect most people don't even know there's a there there.

For instance, while I now know that file systems have permissions, before I became a programmer, I spent maybe ten years thinking of permissions as a special, obscure system thing that you should never touch.

For that matter, I suspect many people don't know basic things like that a file system isn't inherently the operating system.

And, where would you go to learn this information? Your Mac doesn't ship with a manual—how would you know one exists? Furthermore, I would wager that perhaps most people have never learned how anything works requiring a manual and are simply unaware that that's a thing.

All to say, I'm not sure "refusal" is the right term.
