Apple Intelligence received the same criticism when they launched Siri AI. Seems like the faking it, is a common product UC.

Yawn, you gave a lot of praise but said a whole bunch of nothing substantively.

I work with LLMs daily and recognize the value (for me, it’s speeding up SW development) but I’ve heard the same old song for the past 3 years. It’s getting played out. “But this next thing though! This next thing!”.

Will you say the same thing when the next frontier model releases?


These resets also reset your weekly timer right. So it’s like, you may have 30% left for 1 days that you want to use. They reset it, and that means you your “new week” timer starts today.

That sucks, because it doesn’t always work in your favour if you plan your weekly spend.

I think a real reset shouldn’t also reset your week timer.


Yes, I was saving my 95% usage for the last day. Then they reset it. Now I have lost 95% usage!! Im back to 7 days and got locked in at only 5% usage for the week - that's actually theft.

Agreed. But they also hand out the usage resets you can use at will, so if you bank couple of those, they come in handy specifically in situations like you described.

I rather have them hand out these banked resets (even if they expire after n weeks), that would prevent the problem case I described.

Getting paid meta exec money and not using a VPN for this, lol, good riddance.

True, openweight is the correct term.

No one serious about security touches Omarchy.

Practically every distro suffers from critical LPEs, but at least there’s a bar.

Omarchy is a hot mess that exists for the same reason that matcha is in our coffeeshops and peptides are in our collective memory.


This is a weird metaphor - why do you think people buy matcha at coffeeshops or use peptides? Those two things don't have anything obvious to do with each other, let alone with Omarchy.

except that all three things are getting a lot of social media clout.

they just keep pumping out short form videos or yapping heads talking about how they use x to do y better than any of the old stuff...

I think this is the OP's point. they all exist because there is a lot of noise about them existing and being used.


Thank you, that’s it exactly.

Genuinely so confused about your last sentence, please explain…

I think Norway should not waste money on this.

I think OpenAI’s does not have ANY moat. They are currently a leader but lack the piles of cash required to stay a leader in the medium/long-term. (They can not in anyway compete with AWS/Alphabet on that front, and they know that too.)

Researchers and engineer will want big comp, as they can get it elsewhere, if you stop paying that, then you loose the knowledge necessary to stay a leader, even though it’s a losing race in the long-term anyway. The company will become a growing pile of non-SOTA techniques and models + old hardware in no time.

Why waste that money…?


Eh, we’ve seen many footholds of documented chains start in application code throughout time.

To list a few: - WebKit (CVE-2016-4657) - WhatsApp (CVE-2019-3568) - Chrome (CVE-2021-38003)

Then, also the distinction between platform vs application gets fuzzy with bugs in PassKit etc.


WebKit and Chrome are platform codebases. WhatsApp is an example of what I'm talking about, though.


Hegseth loves this app!


The disclosure section is gold. It’s such an accurate description.

Major consumer companies reply just like that.

It’s incompetence and I think to an extent also arrogance.
