@iroasmas the good news: s-tier l'esprit de l'escalier

the bad news: it's this escalier

@wbridgefa @brundolfsmith technically they're Alphabet hellfire missiles. google is just a subsidiary

@funcabbage @zachtratar @peter_szilagyi it's kinda beautiful, really

in like a scorpion sort of way

@tjl "this thing I am making will for SURE make you obsolete" doesn't pair well with "and you may not have it"

throw in a "you're welcome" while you're at it, and yep, folks'll get agitated

that's pretty much the whole story

@CharlieBull0ck @schulzb589 @deanwball @theojaffee (I might clarify, though, that as a non-lawyer I use the word ‘anticompetitive’ in the ordinary language sense. I know it is also a spell that lawyers cast, but I do not know how to. In English, the word straightforwardly, uncomplicatedly applies to this and also to Salesforce)

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@CharlieBull0ck @schulzb589 @deanwball @theojaffee This is interesting legally, and I appreciate you taking the time.

It sounds as though if e.g., Sysco could practically enforce that their calories not be used to transport or prepare food, that would also be permitted?

Is that accurate?

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@CharlieBull0ck @schulzb589 @deanwball @theojaffee what is “you cannot use our product to compete with us” if not anticompetitive?

in what way does the public benefit from firms behaving that way?

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@deanwball @neil_chilson @CharlieBull0ck @theojaffee what would we make of an oil company prohibiting the use of their product to fuel a competitor’s fleet?

this doesn’t seem borderline, it seems flagrant — with respect to the intent and purpose of the law

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@francoisfleuret On the grounds that we'll:

- fine them if they don't
- nationalize them if they don't pay the fine
- imprison them if they resist

The competitive arena belongs to the government, for the benefit of the people. We make the rules.

This is a bog standard free market issue.

@mattpocockuk Zeroth source: what you personally manually introduced into the context universe.

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@EthanLipnik not what you asked, but, yeah -- best fix atm is to have the main thread ask questions, and task subagents with writing reports that answer those questions.

@theo @ziggydakid omg ur a poet

@simonsarris you’re predicting the PR cycle correctly i believe, but the fundamentals still favor growing use of AI

we’ll generally see less discretionary token spend over time, but more total

the bulk will move into processes and systems that require no special genius to steward

@kimmonismus Bug or deleted? Both.

https://t.co/rmf9tAAbmx

They deleted it on purpose, and it's a huge bug.

TBD if they're going to double down.

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@thsottiaux Just a heads up, you guys locked an issue https://t.co/rmf9tAAbmx
for "getting too heated".

Fair. Protect your peace. But that issue is a SERIOUS regression.

I was shocked to realize it was intentional. I didn't get a chance to comment in that issue, but I certainly would have.

@emmma_camp_ you nailed it. most of what they call “IQ” testing for embryos is really just measuring general knowledge and cultural fluency

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@dhasandev There'll always be more to say -- it's not comprehensive.

But what's being explained here is not yet broadly recognized, and it very accurately describes key dynamics and constraints that will govern standard practice for at least another 10 years.

[a self-obsessed baby @babynarc]

@dhasandev Not to gas you up, but down to the paragraph it's the cleanest, most on-target writing on the subject that I've seen yet.

It makes most writing about 'software factories' look like those medieval paintings of lions, where the artist clearly hadn't actually seen one in real life.
