My ass, latest gen is actually more open to criticism. Old gen people used to be bullies and dogmatic. I call your story bullshit.

It was my last day at a company that was wrongfully firing me. I fought ruthlessly. In the morning I was fit and fine. By night I had a 104 F fever. It is astonishing how psychological issues significantly affect physical health.
Lifting heavy in the morning uplifted my mood. Gave mental energy for the rest of the day. I took small nap after it but that’s it.
Waking up at 6 AM and doing workout did wonders to my mental health.

The problem I see with the book is copy editing. It is self published on lean pub, which I have seen has poor copy editing.

Kagi for me is same as Google. But Brave is a bit different plus it uses its own indexes

I tried to find a ELM style framework in Rust. And I couldn't find it in Rust and chose F# Fabulous instead.
IME Claude has been a bit inferior. But, yeah, the marketing is just great.

Re:Vivaldi 8.0 on Thursday May 21, 2026 @06:20AM (#48220315)
For me on Windows. It hangs a lot. Thus I uninstalled.
Still they are maintained by those developers. I cannot spend my time developing extensions. I'd rather do that in Rust.
I absolutely like this. Pi becomes sluggish after installing a couple of extensions. I myself was trying to port Pi to Rust but it was consuming too much tokens.

Is there any API like Pi so that I can create extensions.

Bun is basically a wrapper over JSCore. I don't think it's that big of a feat. Furthermore they are heavily invested in vendor specific APIs which I think is not good.
It's GPT 5.5 and it still can't do exactly the same thing I want. So, I think companies should call AI a lost cause.

Do we have any performance benchmark with token length? Now that the context size is 1 M. I would want to know if I can exhaust all of that or should I clear earlier?
Why would I pay for a pwa with some elements blocked?
I do use powershell but it doesn’t provide auto complete for commands. I repeat I don’t want history. I want commands or args suggestions. Just like zsh auto complete
All I want is auto complete for the commands on Windows. And none provides

Using agents to edit code. And Helix doesn’t support live update of files. This is the reason it’s not my first choice.

AI can produce thousands of line of code. But that’s not the goal.
How is this different than RAG?
