Or if it is your key and your air-gapped hardware wallet gets hacked because someone didn't use the right RNG. Crypto is apparently never yours; you're just holding on to it for some future criminal or nation state.

Seems like the difference is millions of lines of code and thousands of servers now, vs none of either back then (unless you count some erlang ATT switching code for the phone call you make to the pizza shop).

Making a phone call, then paying with cash, is just crazy efficient. What exactly have we even gained?

Yeah, this is 99% of the benefit for me. And it's not theoretical. My company saw performance issues using pure random IDs with MySQL way back in 2015; and consequently rolled our own UUIDv7 that we're still using to this day.

haha, yes, sorry.

> bog standard markings for AC and DC

Well, yeah, but I wouldn't call a single "~V" UI label "discovery". Mine actually auto-switches between AC and DC, which fits better, I think. But it's still just a tiny part. If I try to measure the ohms of a rubber tire, I don't get a little Clippy character popping up to explain resistance to me.

How could this happen to a project with 55k commits in three years?

6.1 Sol does this too. Like, line break after a function, but absolutely nowhere else. This solved it for me:

- Use paragraph-oriented formatting: give distinct logical steps room to breathe. Keep closely related statements together, but separate changes of purpose and a block's final result with blank lines. Prefer readability over vertical compactness.

Wow. Is DS the only model that consistently puts one leg behind the frame? I don’t even remember Opus ever doing that.

If you also constantly lie, then people will complain about the lying.

> I don't know why anybody would.

Well, there's really two things going on here: consumer vs professional. Does an electrician need to "discover" the modes on her multimeter? Naw. Do I need to discover where the wiper controls are on the car I just rented? Absolutely! But I'm not a huge fan of UI fluff that helps me discover things on my work machine.

As someone who runs a super-boring, stock tiler with zero decoration or bling; couldn't agree more. It's this kind of thing that gets new users interested in Linux. _I_ started using Linux because I saw some video of wobbly windows, and desktops on a giant rotating cube.

Google knows all about virtual phone numbers and won't accept them. If you don't have a number issued by a large telco, forget about creating a Google account.

I was kinda hoping I'd get to the end and it would say, "In fact, this entire post was drafted by Argon!"

That's the big agent play for everyone. What good is this thing unless your whole family has an iphone, you use iCloud for email/calendar/contacts, you have HomeKit running your house, AppleTV, etc? Failing that, it's a big, voice-activated kitchen timer; just like everything else.

Even without net metering.

Well, OpenAI at least is fine with you using whatever harness you like. Having a crappy first-party one is bad, but an escape hatch puts a floor on it.

Password managers check the domain before they fill.

Way late to the "agent" party here, but I've been slowly building up a Family group-chat agent ever since OpenCrow released and drove me crazy. It works really well now, so I figured it would be cool to package the whole thing up as a one-script deploy.

Set up a family chat, with a built-in helper agent?

I'm excited for API use. I run some agents, mostly on Luna 6 right now. It's just tool use, web browsing, etc, so something dirt cheap, but also not super dumb, is much appreciated. Having a Luna competitor is nice.

Where do you get this 10% number? Checking providers I know/respect, and GLM 5.3 flash is $0.15/m. Haiku is $0.10/m.

Or trains...

Yeah, I keep wondering if I should switch to something cheaper, but I'm too lazy to evaluate service qualities across providers, and I don't really use enough for it to matter. If they are the most expensive because they're the best, I'm fine with that, but have no idea.

I use Systemd containers in Nix. That’s really cool because I can selectively link in the parts of my desktop that I want it to have access to.

I feel like this isn't going to be a simple permission popup. Probably along the lines of getting an "unapproved" binary to run, where you have to stop what you're doing and wade through settings, trying to find the right toggle 6 nodes deep in the tree.

Same here. I _think_ I use the TTS stuff? Not sure. I just subscribe to support the project.

Guys, you don't have to use it. That's the _entire_ point. Every comment in here is some version of "But it's still a cloud". Sure. But if the entire thing can be replaced with a Tailscale free account, or a Cloudflare tunnel, or a port forward at your router (in descending order of "should you do it"), is it really the same thing? Hence the name change.

I like a sandbox, but there's arguments for all three. Jai is still my favorite on Linux.
