The only reason I was sticking to Android for years is this. And I think there is no moat for Android. I would rather switch to iOS if both platforms are same restrictive.

You'll miss having a keyboard that works

It'll be sorted in about 9 days.

I did this last year. Reluctantly. And using iOS still hurts. But it’s better than that Google crap.

I developed my own Android ROMs from 2009-2011, complete with my own tuned kernel. I ran the local Android developers MeetUp group and evangelised Android development. When Honeycomb launched I helped OEMs test their beta firmware. For free.

But as Google has become certified Evil, the direction of Android has been very clear. In practice I honestly can’t say it’s now any more open than iOS. Except it has a lot more avenues for Google to mine your data to sell ads. And the quality of third party apps on it is decidedly worse.

I thought long and hard about getting a Linux phone. But I need a good camera on my phone to take random snaps of kids/pets/etc. And the Linux phones just aren’t there.

I hate the shitty duopoly we have ended up with. But I now realise that the openness of x86 and pc as platform really was an accident of history.

When you say quorum what do you mean? Is it like an agent swarm or using all of them in your workflow and independently they perform better than opus? Curious how you use (tooling and purpose - coding?)

Yes it did well. Also some other word problems it did well too. Reasoning seems good. But maybe not a great code model

not a communist, but the communist manifesto articulated this problem very well in people end up doing work that does not matter to them because of capitalism. imagine a world, where people do that, they are passionate about and not have to worry about basic means and even some wants (entertainment, comfort living etc). a world of abundance for everyone where people just do what they are super passionate about. will AI help towards that or not is a big question.

name one pure communist country that has thrived. China has 516 billionaires.

How CoreWeave(wand) a competitor? I think they are a partner in in infrastructure.

nice. I restrict to 2000 tokens for mine, how many was that?

how do you do that?

I'm assuming the "Gemini 2.5" referenced on this site is Flash, not Pro. Pro is insane, and 3.0 is just around the corner.

I used exactly the same prompt this site uses. Nothing else.

I have a feeling the Trainium thing might get scrapped at some point of time as its probably not worth their effort in trying to retrofit. I assume AMD probalby at their doorstep banging to show better value

duh! isn't that obvious. is this some students wanted a project with pretty graphs on writing experience?! I am not trying to be cynical or anything. just questioning the obvious thing here.
