This view will ALWAYS overweight open models. The closed ones are being used in their own harnesses via direct API connections that OpenRouter will never have visibility to.
Yes, outsourcing these kinds of core functionality (your queue, your users table!) is insane to me.
It would just stack the windows of different sizes, so if you hit the Winamp tab the smaller Winamp tab would be at the top of the stack. Pretty simple and intuitive.
I loved the tabs on BeOS.
> After a local activist uploaded a license-plate search tool
on Fly.io, a developer-focused public cloud platform, to an
infiltrated Signal chat, HSI agents reviewed website DNS
queries and Stripe data along with data purchased from a
commercial broker. This gave HSI access to SSH session
logs, outbound connection records, the Fly.io account’s
signup IP, and a Stripe card fingerprint on an account that
had never completed a payment. Agents fused that with
Minnesota DVS records and commercial data from the Thomson-
Reuters CLEAR platform to produce a driver's license
nummber, Social Security number summary, years of address
history, phone numbers, property records, and jointly
registered vehicles.
Wow, I wonder how they got SSH session logs?!
The breadcrumb trail here is chilling.
It had a decent number of apps, I drove it as my primary OS for a while.
Ended up using Linux, but it was a great OS for its time.
No, more like:
> If you're evil, you're at least competent.
Incompetent evil exists. This statement is wrong, B does not follow A.
> And if you're evil, you're not bad.
They aren't mutually exclusive, so this is incorrect.
> And therefore, maybe you're actually kind of good because you're at least getting something done
This presupposes that "getting something done" is a positive end in itself, which is not a given.
Each phrase is wrong. It's impressive, actually.
Well, I apologize for assuming! But, nevertheless, that's why TUIs are popular.
I would've LOVED that. It was a huge need that got filled (half-assedly) by others.
Better late than never!
This is like 10 years too late.
Wallet Passes are incredibly useful and people like them. I tried to create a Pass with the woefully inadequate Apple documentation years ago and ended up pivoting because it was such a pain in the ass.
I like TUIs because I am running agents in Docker, often remotely.
How can a GUI replicate this workflow? I know it could, technically, but not as easily.
This is probably the best take I've seen on this.
They all gave $1M to the inauguration, among other things, that's how. The corruption is out in the open.
Not much of a surprise. Government action has been anemic at best. Industry action (overall) has been net negative.
The only hope now is exponential growth of (solar and wind)+batteries making other sources uneconomic. This seems to be slowly happening, so I hope we hit the exponential curve soon and we're there quicker than we expect.
This only stops it.
Then, to fix it, we'll need a massive Direct Air Capture industry that will have to operate for a century, and probably past that so we can hit and maintain a CO2 level of 250ppm.
> San Francisco schools decided a couple of years ago that they would no longer teach Algebra in 8th grade.
This has nothing to do with this at all. We're talking about 4th grader literacy nationwide and you're talking about algebra in a single area in a different grade!?
The second point where there aren't enough teachers nationwide (10% missing workforce) is probably because teachers are terribly paid, disrespected, and subject to bad working conditions.
Maybe that's why people aren't clamoring to be teachers and the quality of work is low?
Using my phone in grayscale convinced me of the power of shiny colours. It is shocking how boring my phone feels in grayscale.
This really does help break any feeling of attachment to the device and the solutions in this post really do make it more practical. It does kind of suck using the camera in grayscale.
> blocking a referendum because they didn't consult indigenous groups
The requirement to do so is in our constitution, the Charter. It's not optional and not absurd to anyone with proper historical understanding of Canadian history.
There's something to be said about first impressions and the GnuCash website's first impression does not give confidence in its ability to handle finances.
Ironically for this thread, I think an AI redesigned website would do wonders here.
When the leading CEOs are saying the next generation will be unemployed due to AI... uh yeah, you're gonna lose them!
A very well done type system + native code performance, with the ease of use of Ruby is a massive selling point, IMO.

That is very high. Not sure who they are using for processing, but I know Stripe will give registered charities a (very small) cut on their fees, I'm not sure about non-profits. But even with market rates, the average fees through Stripe would be well below 10%, IME.
So, if Thunderbird instead asked for users to sign up for an annual software subscription, it'd be fine?
How many space telescopes better than anything we currently have can we put up when launch costs are <$50m?
A huge synthetic telescope in orbit with an aperture the size of the planet?
How many private earth observation satellites?
The market is huge when weight constraints largely go away and $/kg drops so hard.
> novel path
Reusing Apollo-style stack, reusing Shuttle engines, reusing Shuttle-style SRBs. Novel?
Much like the vouch system mitchellh is working on for open source contributors, the wider web needs a trust layer that can vouch for a poster's status as human or AI, along with a "quality" score that can travel from site to site.
Literally what they wrote: service members.
Art is often only appreciated in retrospect, so it is typically undervalued at the time of its creation.
> equals the value of what they give to the tax payers in return
This seems incredibly shortsighted.
Kinda like the ones they are already burning in Starship to put these in space in the first place.
Anywhere on earth is better than space for this application.
> mostly to religious sights [sic]
Don't be so sure.
