    They just bought (or are about to buy) openrouter. Must be part of the reasoning… In other news GLM5.3 is available on openrouter. I think it’s mostly focused on coding.

    It’s a tough habit to solve. I don’t il l truly be free of p*** addiction. But the more you go without it, the weaker the brain connections get. And I noticed it gives me bad anxiety the next day. I eat like shit. Can’t focus. What helps a bit is making it harder to access. I have cold...

    I wouldn’t go near it at work for anything meaningful. It’s useful to search for sharepoint files. But other than that it’s completely useless. Maybe it’s the version we’re using…

    I read somewhere that the reason they destroy the books is because the cut the middle of the book so that it’s all loose pages. Then use ultra-fast scanners to scan pages very easily. Kinda like a printer with the loose paper, but for scanning. i think it’s much more expensive and slow to turn...

    "How do you die after being #1... having captured the entire market?" - Dollar Shave Club, a business' lifecycle, and piss-poor planning

    SCALING 
    I think nowadays is more like “can we create something that’s 50% worse but squeeze another 0.5% profit?” And the answer is “F*ck yeahhhh” Like BMW started putting ads on the console… how much do you need to squeeze out of every customer? The answer is “everything” Smart people already came...

    Audio vs physical books - my small epiphany

    BOOKS STORY 
    With audiobooks it's too easy to zone out. Even when walking to work, you need to stop paying attention to the book for a few seconds so you can cross the streets safely... And those few seconds could mean missing the entire meaning of the chapter. Then you need to go back. Also taking notes...

    Gen Z Says This Is the Main Reason They Don’t Date: ‘Feels So Unattainable’

    NEWS 
    Gen Z is the generation that would quit trying to learn how to walk if they were born at 15. I'm from Brazil, so the hookup culture there is a bit more... "Fluent".

    Sonnet 5 = Opus 4.8. With the 1m context window. I also noticed my usage is drawing much quicker than before on Claude. I also think Opus 5 is making more mistakes than before… it broke the app I have. Then a lot of back and forth to fix it… Also started using deepseek v4 flash for simple stuff.

    I'm surprised about Idiocracy votes... Because that's already the case. Just replace AI with social media and people are already stupid and addicted to the algorithm, which is kind of a simulation because it only shows what you want to see. I also don't think there's much money in Medical...

    Concentrated shampoo / hand soap / body soap For example, shampoo is ~ 80% water. So instead of transporting 1 shampoo, one could transport 5 concentrated mini bottles of shampoo. I’ve never seen this sold anywhere

    Damn… chill haha Those are personas. It’s part of an act (maybe, maybe not). They need to generate attention for the fights so people are invested… You should really read MJ’s latest book about choosing hard… (like not getting bothered by people a million miles away from you)
