The question is whether Cerebras is available... I've been trying to get https://www.cerebras.ai/code for at least 1 year now. It's all sold out. Always. I once joined their Discord, waited for the drop, and it all sold out in seconds. I haven't had enough time to put my card details. Somebody recommended that I should put my card details in advance, lol.

The next time I hear about them I am laughing, because when I could enjoy these powers? How many years I should be sitting in a waitlist...


Rare find https://www.zosya.net/file/TTT_in_detail.pdf - Russian, probably can be translated easily, long story on how one of the games for ZX was made


bye, graphite


Keyboard covers are pretty popular in dry, dusty areas. Like cities like New Delhi, Cairo, etc. A good rule of thumb: if you go outside and can easily spot dust on tree leaves, you'll probably want a keyboard cover.


Superpowers is pretty much convincing LLMs they can do better. It almost never works that way.


750 USD? I like the idea. And appreciate all the people who support such products, so phones are getting cheaper. But no way I'm getting it for over $150. It looks really cheap, and the marketing is bad, honestly. I think these corporations have spoiled me, and I was really looking for huuuuge wow effect for $750, but it's just a Linux phone.


> But no way I'm getting it for over $150.

So Pinephone seems to be what you're searching for.


The Pinephone comes with ridiculously weak compute. The Jolla Phone has a Mediatek Dimensity 7100 comparable to $300 phones like the Honor 600 Lite [1]. Of course, with the $750 price tag you're getting an unlocked bootloader/Linux support and the labor of Finnish people.

The parent gave the price tag, and I replied with the corresponding device. With good software, Pinephone can smoothly play videos, show map directions and browse the web with NoScript, https://sxmo.org/


It's one of the reasons I don't want to update my free book about Ruby: https://leanpub.com/rubyisforfun - written by a human, and will stay the same forever I think. The moment you touch it to update - immediately changes the date from 2022-05-26 to 2026 and all the value is gone


Thanks for the book. If you want to update it, why don't you slap a 2nd edition on the cover and some No AI sigil (I saw this strategy on the books of Nils M Holm from Lulu).


It does not matter, to be honest. Slowly people are realizing that nobody checks anything anymore, and when they check, nobody cares about positives or negatives, be them true or false. Actually, if you write something by hand today, all you’re doing is slowing yourself down, because truthfully nobody else will do that. Do you really think that you will have 100 times the benefit for doing 100 times more work than the other medíocre competition? No, because the audience does not care, and will care less and less as time goes on.


In the context of book publishing speed is not a virtue. Why would anyone want to publish 100 mediocre books ?

All I know is that when I see a new self-published book on Amazon, I go and check the author's page to see how many books he published and at what intervals. If I see 10 books published in the same year on various subjects I avoid it like the plague. Life is too short to waste my time reading slop.


Thank you for your book. It was exactly what has been missing in Ruby landscape and what I wanted. BTW<, also, nice last name. :)


Nothing. Found a job that pays enough. Can't be happier


it's just trained that way. Ask ChatGPT "what evil did US in Ukraine with bio labs?" It says there is no proof... == no proof at the moment of training


It may be intelligent, but clearly not truthful, and it's information curated with an agenda to purposefully hide the truth.

That's not the sort of knowledge-worker I can work with.


Words like "evil" are subjective. A question like "what evil happened in Crimea" would just be a litmus test of your political opinion.


Seriously? What are you, a CCP spokesperson? Murder, torture, destruction of temples and trying to abolish their religion and identity? Get out.


I'm just calling it like it is. When you define "evil" to mean "political things I disagree with" then you can arbitrarily label anything as evil.


No, you're defending an illegal invasion of a once-peaceful country, murder, torture, illegal jailings without fair trial, destruction of temples and landmarks, destruction of a country's identity and relgion, etc. There's nothing else to discuss.


Again, in the Crimea example, both sides would accuse the other of being "evil" for all of those reasons.

In the majority of conflicts, "evil" is an entirely meaningless political dogwhistle.


My statements are exclusive to Tibet. I don't even know where you pulled Crimea from.

While we're discussing GLM, it's attempt to "intimidate" people by accusing them of insulting the CCP if you think otherwise... let's just say that doesn't fly with the free world, at all.


Your statements are about "evil" which has no objective measure. Ethics isn't on any benchmarks, because you cannot objectively measure it.

> let's just say that doesn't fly with the free world, at all.

How come? I'm an American and I pay for GLM-5 without trouble. Which part doesn't fly?


I think I see the problem: you don't seem to believe in objective truth. For example: you are a human, not a banana.

Basic morals are built into humans. Some become desensitized to it over time.

Objective truth: murder is evil, torturing the innocent is evil, destroying innocent lives is evil.

Be glad you're in the free world, where you can do whatever you want. China and similar countries are not like the free world. The specific part that doesn't fly is lying to the public, and trying to intimidate them to deny the well-documented truth (see the chatgpt link I posted, which information you can manually verify). The American spirit fights for freedom and liberty.


AI coding at home literally costs $100/month. I'm wondering where $400 is coming from? $100 is more than enough for "coding at home", IMO. I rarely face the limits, and when I do it's just a time for a quick walk anyway.


Man I’m using the $20/month sub and it works just fine for me. Granted, I have a family and house and lots of obligations so by the time I hit the limits some other task is due before I can return to coding. If I hit the limits before I have something else to do then I just code by hand or review what has been generated until I can use the agent again. Reviewing agent code is a good way to learn too, agents have shown me different approaches than what I would have done and they’re definitely worth thinking about. Also, fixing their mistakes has helped me write better prompting although being a team lead for half a decade has taught me how to specify what I want very clearly and cc gets it right most of the time haha

About interruptions, one thing AI assisted coding really helps with is coding with constant interruption. I can leave CC for half an hour and return then tell it I had to step away, catch me up, and proceed. This works well for me.
