ai doomerism is just an evolved form of tech doomerism, something that's been around forever and will always be around
14 years ago when I first started coding, quite a few people told me it wasn't a good idea because anyone can just make their own website using wix or squarespace. not listening to them was one of the the best decisions of my life.
since then I've seen different versions of this play out over and over. some new advancement comes along and people convince themselves that "it's so over" and try to convince everyone around them that they're right
6, 12, 18 months later you realize that while those people were complaining, someone else was starting something new that became the next unicorn or the work they were pouring into their idea finally found success
today there's more negativity than ever and at the same time, more opportunity. I sometimes see am affected by pessimists and negative thinkers, so i've really been going out of my way to mute them, and surround myself online and in person with (grounded) optimists and people who see the opportunities as the world changes and evolves.
all this being said, I still follow, enjoy, and value people who argue opposing views if they are in good faith.
@levelsio Very impressive! Have you talked about your own claude code setup before? Do you use a mostly vanilla setup or do you have a very specific setup in terms of harnessing, agents, hooks, skills etc.?
@greentheonly@CaneverFabio@fabio_mcma291 What about the argument of keeping the production line of something so new and different to what they normally make close to the R&D department? Isn't Optimus development mainly happening in California?
Thanks for the reply! 🙏😊
Just to understand the consequences here and how I best proceed. If I do a global installation of V3 does it then wipe everything from my current setup and create a blank slate for itself? (I know it backs up something from the current setup). Or is it advisable that I first do some cleaning up of my current setup before installing V3?
@parcadei Thanks for the reply! :) Does the installations of V3 wipe all of your current setup? Does it create a "clean slate" for itself or is it advisable to do some form of cleaning before attempting to install it?
@parcadei@parcadei is this made for Windows as well? PowerShell? WSL2?
Also, to what degree do you recommend using this with other packages, plugins etc? Any recommendations? 🙏😊😊
Couldn't a company just use Claude code with the anthropic API and not have the monthly per user billing? Would still get the benefit of Claude code that way. Could potentially have the entire company go through a common gateway and cache it. Or would that will that still be more expensive?
@bcherny What is the value of doing this hand off from local sessions to web? I am using Claude code through the API only right now. Am I missing something by doing it this way?
@carinalarsen76@piloly Thanks! I used to follow the differences between the models coming out of the different factories in much more detail 5-6 years ago. But I stopped tracking it. Do you know where I could find an up to date overview of the differences between model Y made in China and in Berlin?
