@ycombinator @asterailabs where's the lab?

@james_mtc Looks wrong

@oguzerkan When you put it like that, Meta does look overvalued

@marty_kausas This is under $800/pp/mth - feels surprisingly low. Expect labour bill is 20x higher still. So only needs 5% productivity enhancement.

@garrytan It’s obviously not the hardest possible problem or it would be getting solved this fast. There are vastly harder, more interesting, more valuable problems - they don’t get funded and don’t progress as fast precisely because they are so much harder.

Everyone feels like a genius in a bull market. Almost certainly you aren’t. Stay humble. Be grateful you were in the right place at the right time.

[Tom Etminan @tetmin]

@sama Yeah, nails almost a lot, except writing. articles, posts, pitches, emails, grant applications, web & app copy etc.

it’s not even close either, like the final frontier.

@JakeKAllDay @TheAhmadOsman lol, no

@mil000 many things, GPU kernel optimisation for inference worked great, entirely verifiable.

Things that still feel like I’m hacking it or take me out of the app:

pro model missing
markdown editing
no goal mode or way to prevent it stopping prematurely
more of a custom harness builder in app (autoresearch / orchestrator + subagents type workflow)
project level skill control
cleaning things up for a PR

and most obviously lack of mobile remote is frustrating & ties to desk more than necessary

@VilasMagare5 @thsottiaux Why CLI only?

@segal_eran @DrSamuelBHume Where’s the model?

[Nathan S. Cheng thinks you should work on aging. @realNathanCheng]

1/ How long do you want to live?

For most of human history, aging was inevitable.

It's now solvable.

@alexanderrX_ You would need to pay me to live in those places.

Was looking in Tooting years ago while still deluded that the UK might be a decent place to settle. £1.2m trash houses on trash streets, overpriced then, still overpriced now.

@vrexec Sure, but this literally is what the people I know without kids are doing, and what I’d do if decided not to have kids. What’s your sample?
