Why not just use natural language?

Because "latent semantic vectors" sounds way cooler.

I agree completely. I don't know how anyone can be building on these models when all of them are either deprecated or not actually released yet. As someone who has production systems running on the deprecated models, this situation really causes me grief.

I dont think any of them really wants api customers in the end. They are only temporarily useful.

Why's that?

Well let me use llama.cpp to run worlds-smallest-violin-Q8.gguf

When you build on something that can be rugpulled at any moment, that's really kind of on you.

> Achieving the Senior Executive status is often mistaken for a comfortable reward, a final destination with enhanced perks and support. A more fitting analogy is reaching the NFL Super Bowl. You are now part of an elite team where nothing less than peak performance is acceptable. As the Navy SEALs put it...

I can't believe anyone actually wrote this.

In my experience, so many execs love their sportsball and war metaphors.

Social media: the solution to, and source of, all your anxiety!

This doesn’t make sense to me. Of all the things I will delegate to Claude Code, vendor selection would be one of the last.

There are techniques to mitigate this. You can reuse containers instead of creating a new one each time. You can mount in directories (like ~/.claude) from your local machine so you dont have to set claude up each time.

I use agents in a container and persist their config like you suggest. After seeing some interest I shared my setup at https://github.com/asfaload/agents_container It works fine for me on Linux.

Completely agree. If you're motivated enough about a topic to post about it online, you're probably emotional about it and unable to see it in a clear-headed manner.

The people I know who have the most reasonable political opinions never post about it online. The people who have developed unhealthy and biased obsessions are the ones who post constantly.

Heh... do you realize that your comment undermines itself?

And here you are posting your opinions online! How fascinating. I hope you recognize the extreme irony in the fact that you were motivated enough about this topic to post about it.

If I'm a linux user who uses firefox currently, what's the value prop for this browser? I already get privacy and extensions, is it just for testing my app on webkit?

The main benefit is that Orion (contrary to Firefox) has a business model. The downside is that it's not open source. They have some explanation on why, but it might be a deal breaker for someone.

Firefox has a business model, it is mostly "google search referrals"

You can already test a site on a webkit engine in Linux using Gnome Web (previously Epihany) or LuaKit ( https://luakit.github.io/ ). But it is always good to have options, even if commercial ones. From that aspect Orion on Linux is good news.

As I understand it, Orion was originally developed because Apple doesn't allow you to select Kagi as a search provider for Safari.

A friend of mine is in great shape and smokes cigarettes

Means he’s really doing something right…eating right and exercising. Well at least exercising.

Left-populists and right-populists like to frame issues as being a conflict between the elites and the common man. Banning big banks from owning homes is a perfect example of this.

It's fine to ban big banks from buying homes and wont do damage to the nation, but don't expect it to solve the problem.

High housing prices are due to zoning-based supply restrictions. These are entrenched due to politically active NIMBY voters.

Actually fixing the housing crisis means addressing zoning, but that doesn't fit the elite vs common man narrative so gets ignored by the populists.

It makes things slightly worse for people who want a non-apartment house but think they might move soon.
