maybe Gmail isn't that bad... Yes you may be targeted with ads and what else brings revenue to Google. Yes you could expect that law enforcements may scan/seize your inbox but if you're kind of fine with either of these, I certainly trust more Google than anything else when it comes to protect against real hackers/unauthorized access

Not 10 months... Binance revenue was 17B in 2024 (no disclosure in 2025, certainly a bit lower but still). The frozen assets from the stolen 5.8B come close to 3B, so they have at most a 3B loss if nothing is recovered from now on. Significant but that's no more than 3 months of revenue.

It's all about agentic work. Tmux doesn't know what an Agent is. You use Pi, you use CC, you use Codex, ... they all have primary supports in Herdr with built-in integrations around each of these harnesses

But if you don't do any agentic work, Herdr has 0 value vs. tmux.

I was wondering this, too. The desktop appears to be based on herdr-core, and naturally I'd have imagined Herdr Server (terminal) to migrate to herdr-core as well. In fact I'm not even sure why they built herdr-core when they had Herdr Server ..

Anyway, the best comment I could find is that one here where even the main dev doesn't know the direction .. https://github.com/herdrdev/herdr-app/issues/63#issuecomment...

Lack of vision and fragmentation is concerning

It's very approximate. You've Spain which has almost +3 hours of offset in the west of the country with the sun during DST, while you have countries like Japan which are in the negative territory (Tokyo).

Or, you have Spanish people who start their dinner at 10PM while Germans living in the same timezone are already sleeping at that time...

Online banks, 24/7 gyms (or close to). That's my situation .. Yes I can't shop at 3AM if that's going to be your next point, but I'm okay with that one :-)

With that said, I don't know where you live nor what is your situation, and like I said previously many people can dictate how their day shall look like but of course not everybody can.

Exactly, the time on the clock is just a number, can't understand people complaining about this.. If one wants to have its dinner at sunset then so be it, whether the sunset is at 4PM or 9PM. I mean I get it some people don't have a freewill unfortunately but many people can dictate how their day shall look like

If we could just all stick to UTC in the world... DST is just a (North) American and European invention, nobody in the world follow that non sense. And whether DST or Winter time, it doesn't matter, just choose one or the other, it can only be better than the current situation

Huh.. well maybe... but I can only assume you are not a developer

Competition on what to do with it, not on pricing: Dot is free (assuming you've a subscription), Duet isn't. I'd not want precious tokens to be wasted by some random polling Duet may be doing, all while using Opus as its underlying agent.

> Russia will never attack NATO

You think about a frontal attack like in Ukraine, and maybe you're right. But Russia is already waging a much more subtle war against NATO. Look at who's leading the US. Look at Brexit. Or look at who could soon lead France or Germany... Their conventional army may be weak, but they don't need to fire a bullet either.

Many reasons:

- economy has been slowing down (the real one, the people) while stocks are at record high

- a long overdue business cycle which has been pushed back and back and back ...

- rates hiking (in a slowing down economy)

- bubbles, and that AI bubble is huge. Loving AI on an every day basis but revenue wise, it's not mainstream, far from it. Average people want free stuff, they're good with Google or Facebook throwing them ads, they don't want to pay $200 for a subscription and fact is, 2026 revenues are about $100b totall. Meanwhile hyperscalers are spending about $1 to $2 trillion alone in 2026, and meant to increase within the next few years. You need a lot of imagination to see how this can "flatten" nicely.

Like internet didn't disappear after 2001, AI is here to stay, too. But...

it will fail the day there is a downturn of the economy. That day will be at a 2001 or a 2008 like event - anytime within the next few years (I've no crystal ball, but strong convictions haha).

And yes, they will be acquired by a company which will have survived the next crash at a fraction of their currently estimated valuation and we will truly have the next ride of the economy .. many years ahead if 2001 is an example.

noticeably smarter remains to be seen in practice. For now, Haiku is a bit more expensive than Luna on < 100k token, but I just don't have any agentic work below 100k, so this is going to be 5x more expensive than shown on these charts. It's hardly competitive ...

I've been using Codemode with the new Dot so that Dot can coordinate my agents with:

1. Launching workflows, so it avoids some large configuration

2. Reviewing work, with reviewers restricted to read-only tools or specific tools. Or some tools for reviewers to check hashes, correctness, etc.

3. I'm using the widely used pi-extensible-workflows. So say you want to stop a workflow, you gonna call workflow_stop. Or check the status with workflow_status. Without Codemode, Pi exposes an API, that the agent can use. So yes, you can call workflow_status. Or call workflow_stop. With Codemode, the agent can do something more complex like a for loop over all the list of workflow ids and get a status and stop them all (again, it's just an example).

So basically, Codemode allows to build a sort of framework for more correctness like using a typed language vs. JavaScript without a linter. It gives boundaries essentially. And also Codemode allows an agent to do things more easily like using internal Pi extensions.

there are no profitable AI companies at the moment ... This is the exact problem of European startups, trying to make them profitable from day 1 while American counterparts (and Chinese) keep bleeding money for years. Europe will never have a Tesla, a Google or an Amazon with that mindset.

probably just to keep history alive. A lot of (very) wealthy people buy non-sense because they don't know what to do from their money. Then, why not buying a lighthouse :-)

> Opus 5.5 is significantly better than (..) Sol 6.1

Come on .. this is barely released and you can already make that assessment?

And no, the $200 Anthropic plan is not significantly better than the $200 OpenAI plan, it's just the same Marketing non-sense and anybody shall now rather stick to the $100 plan of both of these provider if the monthly budget is $200. Anthropic doesn't have a Luna Max equivalent, and frankly Sol 6.1 is yet to be thoroughly tested.

Thanks...

It's strange if that ends up to be this way. It's hard to see why would anybody subscribe to the $200 - or even the $500 for the sole benefit of using ultrafast (depleted probably within hours).

Well, here is a breaking-news for you: the 20x from Claude is not a 20x on the weekly usage, it's a 20x on the 5h usage, while the weekly usage is simply double the $100 plan...

Basically OpenAI aligned with Anthropic on the weekly usage with the caveat that OpenAI doesn't have a 5h limit.

Where do you see that? I can't even see the $500 plan on their pricing page.

"Their" benchmarks (and not just Anthropic's) look sssooooo suspicious that they would probably manage to rank Sonnet above Fable for some of their tasks which would just be next level non-sense ..

Maybe your numbers are right, but that's not been my experience. My typical workflow is Astra coordinating with Luna Max (5.6 back then) as both implementer and reviewer and sometimes Astra review as well when I've some distrust with Luna .. A day, I've been trying to replace Luna Max by Deepseek v4.1 flash and I've been burning about $7 worth of tokens in Fireworks in a single day. More than what my 20x OpenAI sub costs me, including Astra usage. And that was when Luna 5.6 was less capable and more expensive than Luna 6.0.

That's not what I meant. Salesforce had a choice to use (and support) battle tested frameworks, and decided instead to build their own one.

Aura existed simply because Salesforce thought to be smarter than open source, well. Can't deny it though: Salesforce engineers were great on the backend, but frontend dev has never been their thing. Back then there was Angular 1 which was miles ahead. React was released shortly after Aura itself, so to say. LWC is what Aura shall have been 10+ years ago. And that ties back to what OP wrote: awful UX extremely slow bloated with JS.

Now, don't talk me about VSCode Extensions. This is the perfect example of an awful dev experience. apex-jorje-lsp.jar with a JVM to parse Apex taking GB of memories, extensions taking dozens of seconds to load (when they load) ... In fact, the only decent LSP is aer, a simple decently working Go binary rather than the monster Salesforce shipped. The one good tooling Salesforce built in the last 15 years is, to some extent, the SF CLI - which came after the `force` CLI from the same guys who built `aer`, anyway. And nowadays, people can use that with their preferred editor from Zed to Vim with shortcuts from built upon the SF CLI.

So no, Salesforce didn't do great with tooling, they just did the bare minimum waiting on the (small) community to give them the right ideas.

Peak Tech Salesforce was 2010 +/- 2 years - i.e. after Visualforce and before Aura era. It used to be a developer oriented platform and it became shiny/flashy garbage eventually. But all these shiny things allowed them to get a large market cap with very brilliant sales people, it's hard to deny.

The US-Iran war is very unpopular and it's not even that the US is winning it.

Going against Canada would mean .. what? Having tanks roll in Toronto downtown? Assuming it would be a military success, which isn't guaranteed after what happens in Iran,that would be unpopular beyond anything we've seen.

Tough words, that's the worse we may expect from the US gov realistically.

Well, regardless of the drama, the interesting part on Anthropic vs OpenAI is:

- One of the two main persons work at Anthropic and "almost" or "partially" solved the issue, but eventually didn't succeed

- An external person with just an excerpt of the chat and certainly less versed in Mathematics (than these 2) tackled the problem.

There is little doubt that OpenAI is so much ahead and maybe the gap is even larger than what we see on Astra vs Fable.

Motorola doesn't have a great track records for flagships smartphones. I will keep finger crossed that we won't have to choose again between security and features but either way it's a great news, and I truly hope that GrapheneOS will be adopted by more manufacturers in the future

I don't understand much from MTE/Android or MIE/iOS but the explanation is also confusing when:

- They claim Apple did a great job integrating MIE in iOS - iOS doesn't encourage to opt into MTE ... Apple's docs warn developers of performance and stability issues

So it seems like even for iOS, this special security feature is only available for Apple own iOS app (at most?).

Then also:

> Even Signal doesn't opt-in. Our approach enables forcing using MTE in the standard allocators regardless.

So does that mean that Signal and any other apps are enrolled in MTE on Graphene?
