It's phrased "would you." I would definitely buy a notebook filled with my thoughts from 20 years ago today.

You're describing conditions that actually result from the opposite of unfettered capitalism. Housing supply is artificially constrained because of zoning laws, tax incentives, rent freezes, environmental reviews, and general opposition to anything new, allowing landlords to behave like this (which, as an aside, they seldom actually do). The solution is to eliminate restrictions on housing construction so supply can grow with demand.

This is wild to me, but to each their own. Mythos-class stuff is insanely better at nearly everything than Opus 4.5 was in my experience.

AI, if not AGI, has certainly become uniquely dangerous in the past 6 months though. We have a lot of evidence to that effect.

The best case scenario is a situation like Y2K: a ton of people coordinate and work hard to produce no perceptible change, because unlike catastrophe, averting catastrophe feels boring.

> For an industry that’s stagnant in progress

Surely you're not talking about the AI industry. Astra was released less than 3 weeks ago, and Fable-level models became public only 6 months ago. The rate of change is dizzying.

I think this is more a meme than anything else, for a couple reasons:

First, after a while it's just as grating as Claudeish. Second, my hunch is that it constricts the actual thinking of the LLM, like the same way that Newspeak does in 1984. It shrinks the range of thought that can be expressed if used as an input.

I think the real way to do it is to have another Claude entirely deal with the user as a liaison, but to keep the thinking in whatever format it came in.

Latent space reasoning, if you think about it, is exactly this to a crazy degree: why even formulate a thought as words if you can just keep it as matmuls until the user needs it? And then, if the user needs it, have it always specifically formulated for the user by another LLM rather than constrict its range of thought? Anyway, that's my take.

Definitely guilty as charged.

I've owned all of them and the answer is the X4 Pro IMO. It has a backlight, which is the only thing I really missed on the others.

Yeah man I can go ahead and let you know early if you want.

Is the file on archive.org anywhere? Should be pretty straightforward to do if so

I think you can get 60 fps out of the old Paper S3. There was a gameboy emulator I saw recently that did it with some trickery I haven't reproduced on mine, but super impressive piece of hardware.

By definition, you won't be able to tell the ones that are fooling you apart.

The second sentence of the page: "This also marks the first time we will open-source the weights of a Qwen-Max-class model — the open weights will be released next week."

You should be less upset over semantics that everyone else has usefully settled on. LLMs understand things fine.

This isn't really a good way to judge things. In the future, the fondest memories someone else has about technology will be about the present. The past is not better, you're just nostalgic for it.

And the easiest way to do this is to lift restrictions on being able to build housing near workplaces (i.e. anywhere housing might reasonably and gainfully be built). Most traffic is caused by building restrictions.

"For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially..."

"No wireless? Less space than a Nomad? Lame"

That's not the point at all and I think you know that.

> that doesn't mean we should develop a pill that makes everyone a great soccer player with no skill development or effort required

What are you talking about? We should absolutely do this. We should extend this to as many domains of human achievement as possible. By this logic, computers shouldn't have existed because it devalued the skill that scribes and accountants developed before word processors and spreadsheets. Blender itself is a tool that made 3D accessible to thousands of people who previously had to pay for expensive licenses, training, and SGI workstations. Literally the whole point of technology is to make more things possible for people unable to do it naturally or without great effort.

I'd argue that "the reality people feel" isn't a good aspect of any metric other than one that measure sentiment itself.

I do nearly this exact thing with these shoeboxes, so you can pull them out from the front and have enough collapsed in storage to always have more on hand: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08T6TC4FW

This can also be fixed by increasing supply. People buy housing as an investment because they expect it to increase in value. The best way to counteract that is to build and continue building so that doesn't happen.

I have one of these for this exact purpose and it's amazing, really underrated. Makes me want a bigger one for sure, though.

The Inkplate10 is an excellent, much lower cost way to get into this

This rules

The snow falling in front of the text here really drives the point home

Hard to justify snow falling in front of the text on a blog post about how a redesign isn’t helpful design.

That's the case currently! What I said is why those laws and judges don't ban advertising!

Certainly you can see the difference between that and advertising.

I didn't say that all speech is ads, I said that ads are speech.
