It seems no model in AI is able to keep the lead + moat for very long before being replaced by the next model provider For image models we've seen the lead change so fast: Midjourney in 2022-02 ⮕ Stable Diffusion in 2022-08 ⮕ Flux in 2024 ⮕ Open AI today ⮕ DeepSeek soon (?) It's such a ruthless industry, billions invested and model companies getting overtaken and sometimes wiped out within months
Shiv 🎥@GuyWithStories

OAI moat is until Deepseek drop the GOAT image gen model. Let them enjoy their few months of glory ( truly deserved for their hardwork but they are robbing people with pricing )

Skype ceases to exist in 2 months Me and my friends still use Skype regularly if we need to make international phone calls, not online calls, but PHONE calls, like calling US IRS or smth I wouldn't know where else to do that I can't use my phone for it cause would be super expensive Spinning up a basic website that works on laptop and mobile, that charges credits (not free!) and lets you voice calls anywhere probably gets you to $1M ARR in no time I think And there's 100% an API out there that already does that so all you need to build is a front end {brandName} - A Skype alternative to call international numbers worldwide And you have 2 months to build it cause then Skype ceases to exist!

NEWS: Microsoft is permanently shutting down Skype in May 2025.

For too long, the blockers and Nimbys have strangled our chances of cheaper energy, growth and jobs, leaving us hostage to Putin. I'm putting an end to it. We are changing the rules on nuclear to deliver cleaner, more affordable energy across the UK.

@Rob_FitLegacy I have exactly the same issue right now and physio advised same lowering exercise which is good. He also advised using wrist straps so you can still do pulling exercises. Means I can do rows and lat pull downs without hurting the tendons. Long slow road to recovery

Rob - Fit For Life - Stronger Every Decade
Have been dealing with tennis elbow since September. A lot of people don't realise this, but tennis/golfer's elbow is a TEAR of the tendon that attaches muscle to bone. Tendons don't heal quickly. In fact, they heal extremely slowly. During the healing process you need to stop doing ANYTHING that causes the pain - otherwise you're just setting yourself back. This is painful (mentally). I haven't been able to do any pulling exercises for months. I felt it tear initially while doing dumbbell rows. For the past 4 months I haven't been able to do rows, pull-ups. pull-downs, biceps curls etc. Instead, I've been doing eccentric dumbbell wrist extension exercises. Placing my forearm on a table with my hand dangling over the end (palm down) and slowly lowering a light dumbbell, using my other hand to move the weight back to the start position. Like anything else, this needs to get near failure and be progressed (more weight/reps) over time. Tendons respond well to this kind of eccentric loading (they need to be strengthened). I'm FINALLY at the point where I have pain-free range of motion in the elbow. Now I will (very slowly) start testing the waters with some light sets of pulling exercises.

This is my favorite knife I own— the Misono UX10 Santoku. I have 3 chef’s knives (and have used dozens) and this is the one I reach for 90% of the time. The santoku is a Japanese-style all-purpose knife, and it lives up to its name. The Misono is very fairly priced in my opinion, and it has the lightness of a Japanese blade with a western-style handle that I really like. If you’re in the market for a good chef’s knife I can’t recommend this enough.

Brilliant British engineers at Rolls Royce have pioneered Small Modular Reactors - each of which generate 470MW. That’s enough to power a million homes for at least 60 years. They’re compact, totally safe and emission-free. Why is Britain not doing all it can to accelerate their installation? Energy would be cheap and abundant, helping our economy boom and making British people richer. Instead, our politicians inflict hardship on their people, forcing them to subsidise wind and solar to the tune of £300 per household per year for the last decade and giving them the most expensive electricity in the world. Enough.

I installed a box high up on a pole somewhere in the Mission. Inside is a crappy Android phone, set to Shazam constantly, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It's solar powered, and the mic is pointed down at the street below walzr.com/bop-spotter

80% of adult male relationships are just sending cancellable memes to each other in a group chat and responding either lol or LOL depending on your level of amusement. This accounts for ~90% of all male relationship needs.

European cities are ideal destinations for a mini-retirement. I’ve been on 4 (month-long+) mini-retirements since 2018 and they’ve all been in European cities. Of all the European cities I traveled to, here are my top 5 recommendations for your first mini-retirement: ↓

I’ve seen vegans hate carnivores and vice versa with diet being the only criteria for the decision. To me all that matters is that one treats others respectfully. Diet is a personal choice and one should do what works for them! Today at the gym I spotted and encouraged my vegan buddy as he attempted a one rep bench PR!
