I doubt that. The population is aging, and there are serious shortage of blue collar workers

Japan is facing a significant shortage of long-term care workers. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare estimates that the country will need approximately 2.4 million care workers by FY2026 and 2.72 million by FY2040 (about 250,000 and 570,000 more, respectively, than the 2.15 million employed in FY2022)[1]

This comment make no sense. You know a large portion of aged Japanese have to worked because there are shortage of blue collar workers right?

Not true. I can read what Fable output with ease but when it sprout Claudish like Opus 5, I know they are doing something to the model. Yes, you can immediate know the claudish language if you work with opus long enough

You are dealing with unreasonable party here. Like the game theory, you have to think what is the next best move. I bet you have not deal with appstore review before, I remember last time even mention google or android in privacy policy will get your app rejected

I created a setapp alternative at https://getapps.cafe. 40 local-first apps and counting and yes I use claude code to help building all these apps (and I do read the code). It is so much easier now to start and create small, self contained apps and I do the future is local/privacy by default apps

you know what is the hard part about local ai? Supporting it cross platform. The OP get it easy by playing in Apple ecosystem but when you need to support local AI to both iOS/Android the approach is completely different. Even get the users to download the smallest models can be a challenge

The best one is google ADK, I must say they are quite thoughful of all the use cases

You want to use multiple providers, so if I am not happy with result from gpt, I can switch to perplexity or something else. The power of plug and play is very powerful when you are building agent/subagent systems

Re:Why, after 6 years, I'm over GraphQL on Thursday May 30, 2024 @10:28AM (#40524170)
Working with GraphQL over 6 years, I have seen (and created) many mistakes mentioned in the article. GraphQL is not great but it has worked well for me, you just need to adapt & change mindset to create better interface for your graphQL endpoint.

For example, having nested queries more than 2 levels is a no go for me (just like having nested inheritance is basically anti pattern)

Focus more on your interface. One way to avoid N+1 and nested query is to required parameter for related fields. For example

```

user(id: $userId) { {

  id

  friends {

    id

    ...

  }
```

to

```

user(id: $userId) {

  id

  friends(id: $userId) {

    id

    ...

  }
```

I love crypto. I even built an SDK to make crypto payment easy [0] However, KYC is there for a reason. Personally, I don't touch any crypto on/offramp service without proper KYC

This is something crypto can solve. There I said it
Typo is my bad. Thanks for pointing it out!

Regardless, there are callback and analytic, webhooks are being considered without compromising user identity. Sure, there are a lot of things to do

At least in the case of Bernie Madoff, the SEC can say "no, it is illegal to run a ponzi scheme and in this case it should say what law the exchange broke to make it valid
