Can it model a sustainable economy model, with human happiness and fulfilment indexes and planet preservation focus? Current capitalism and the red thing are so tired!
Ditch iOS and Android for a Blackberry OS / Nokia ? Really, are there any alternatives?
SWE chart is missing Claude on front page, interesting way to present your data. Mix and match at will. Grown up people showing public school level sneakiness. That fact alone disqualifies your LL. Business/marketing leaders usually are brighter than average developers... so there.

Re:When a video codec wins an Emmy on Wednesday December 10, 2025 @11:11AM (#46219494)
What does Netflix has to do with AV1 codec? While Netflix’s Norkin has contributed some minor add-ons like film grain, Daala folks should have been mentioned along with x264/x264 guys who were at the origins on AV1 development, Google VP9 guys for their contributions and Intel maybe for HW porting, among others. Basically whomever pays for the show, gets to wear the crown. Nothing to see here…

Sonnet 4 had turned to shit recently (about 2.5 months according to my observations). It hallucinated on 3 questions in a row while looking at a simple bash script. Was enough for me to cancel. Claude biz is killing Claude dev. It was good while they were not so stingy on GPU.

Qwen3-32b did it pretty accurately it seems. Calculated heat loss over time going to ambient temp, offered to keep it at standby 100C for short breaks under 10 minutes. Shut down completely for longer breaks.

We should manufacture a bot for the lonely whale. A nuclear powered ai based sex doll submarine. Train on other whales behaviors and use 52 hz audio modulation. It could even have a 3D print manufacturing capabilities to bear an offspring.
