That used to be my flow but I stripped it all out with opus 5.5 and it's working great. You don't need all the process anymore

I'm not sure. That paper from anthropic talked about monitoring j space, presumably those same techniques would work here?

They appear to have solved sub-problems (Euler problem) not this one...
Where do you get those? I got about 5 resets in July but none since then

Interest rates are high because the government is running a large deficit

Have you found any solutions to this? It would be a big unlock to give it this kind of judgement

Couldn't those large black holes merge though to get bigger ones?

Agent engineer master. Currently it's a skill builder to generate custom production grade skills for agents but my goal is to build it into a system that non engineers can use to build and deploy agents with just prompting. https://agentengineermaster.com/
I hope this works. A decade ago I submitted glowing microbes to the epa but they blocked it. My read from going through that was that it was politically impossible. Hopefully times have changed.

Edit: my microbes were gmo, these are not, so no epa rules. Good luck to them!

Re:Claude Opus 4.7 costs 20–30% more per session on Friday April 17, 2026 @01:23PM (#47808333)
Not only that but they seem to have cut my plan ability to use Sonnet too. I have a routine that used to use about 40% of my 5 hour max plan tokens, then since yesterday it gets stopped because it uses the whole 100%. Anyone else experience this?
Maybe but having it search first to load the context with relevant information sure gets better results

It's the other way around. Cashier's spend their 4 percent, where's the lawyers probably save it. Though of course median salary for the two categories means 4 percent change is different in absolute dollars

How would a USA civil be the best scenario globally? Who knows what wars that would trigger globally
It would also help with sites that can't handle the hacker News traffic load. Happens all the time

Interesting application. Can you share more about your stack and how you are approaching that build?

Not true of Netflix, founder came from PayPal. Apple required founder to leave and learn with a bunch of other companies like Pixar and next.

Interest rates have fallen dramatically over this period, which increases the ratio that is affordable.

Peter diamondis and ray kerzweil tried with singularity University but the accreditation process priced to much.
I've found meditation very useful in this regard. If you focus on observing in detail #1 type pain, you find that the #2 becomes much more managable. The technique is to get curious about the pain, ask what type it is (hot/cold/electric etc), where exactly is the pain. what shape is it? how does it change over time? It sounds counter-intuitive but by focusing on it it becomes easier to manage (because I think a lot of #2 is story and mental reactions to the pain rather than the actual pain itself and the mental reactions are self-fulfilling in a negative way).
You are assuming that consciousness can be reproduced by simulating the brain. Which might be possible but it's by no means certain.
Re:After 3 Years, I Failed. Here's All My Startup's Code on Wednesday December 18, 2024 @10:42AM (#42451350)
This has not been my experience at all. I moved to the bay area in 2012 and 5 people I met living there have built unicorns/have net worth now around > $1BN. None of them leveraged family connections. this might be true in Europe but the best folks figure out how to move to america.
Yes, because if AI can do maths then it can use that to improve the efficiency/quality of it's algorithms to self improve...
Also I want my kid exposed to technology, to learn to use and develop with it, but how do you balance that with preventing the damages it seems to cause? We are delaying screen-time for my 2 year old till he's at least 5 or 6 but not sure when is the right time to introduce.
