@claudeai Are tokens used in one Anthropic app, like Cowork, the same tokens that Claude Design uses? I run out pretty fast doing any kind of agent automation.
I haven't used Apple products for years. My Folding Samsung phone is just better than any iPhone. My Windows laptop has a touch screen. Android tablets are way cheaper. But... this new CEO may signal a return to Apple making cutting edge hardware. If so... I would jump back.
@donbarger I am running a couple local llms but the issue isn't the speed or ability, but the technical knowledge needed to install and maintain them. I have some tech chops, but could never imagine my team being as patient as I have been getting the quirks out.
Are any small teams sharing a Mac Mini across the team for AI processing? I'm not talking about the solopreneur here. I'm thinking more about the small ministry team with four to ten staff distributed around the world. I'm looking at the various tools our team is using and we're getting death by a thousand cuts from all these small subscriptions. I'm wondering how realistic it would be for a person to have a Mac Mini running, servicing a small team. The need here isn't for huge data center-style computing but for the kind of stuff we do in Copilot or Gemini or other office tools along that line. I easily see how it works for me as I set up a local instance of a llama but I am thinking more about making something like that available for a small team.
This does not negate the need for cross-cultural workers to learn local languages, but it should keep us from being extreme on language learning in regions with well accepted and utilized trade languages.
Paul worked in mostly trade languages. There were multiple languages spoken in the Med. Basin during his time: Punic, Anatolian, Celtic (Galatia was a celtic region), Oscan and Etruscan. Probably dozens of others. In Acts 14 we see specific mention of Paul encountering a foreign language
Missions isn’t just a vague idea of doing good. It’s a clear, urgent call to take the gospel where it’s not yet known. When we blur that focus, the need doesn’t disappear, but it can get harder to see.
This articles challenges the way we think about missions and calls us back to what truly matters: making Christ known among the nations. AS you read, ask yourself what role God has given you in that mission. https://t.co/w3urnRdEuu
