@rezoundous Not sure yet

If you're on $100 Codex plan, will you be staying / downgrading / upgrading / canceling the plan when the 2x promo ends?

I'm really hitting insane agentic engineering issues. 1. CPU bound, my M4 Max is 100% maxxed all day. 2. I/O bound, current SSD can't read/write so many parallel things fast enough. 3. Space bound, 1 TB is clearly not enough.

Switching back to Claude today. Seems Codex has regressed over the past few days.

@DerekNee @thsottiaux Yes, very strange. Just cancelled my renewal because it's different.

codex got noticeably nerfed past few days. ran several tasks for 20+ hours, none finished. switched to claude code, done in 30 min. something's off @thsottiaux

@Its_Nova1012 All the time

Software Engineers, have you ever deployed to production on a Friday or you just avoid it?

Sad that we've lost him. Seemed like a genuinely nice man.

My life has changed forever

@sama Business Fraud. Preventing shifting Non-Profits to a commercial structure.

what problem do you most hope AI will solve in the future? maybe we can help!

HR: We lost another senior employee today. CEO: What happened? HR: He resigned after receiving an external offer. CEO: That makes no sense. We could have matched it. HR: That is the issue. We were willing to pay a stranger 70% more for the same role, but would not give our existing employee even a 20% raise. CEO: External hiring is different. That is market pricing. HR: He noticed that too. CEO: We appreciated his loyalty. He had been here for years. HR: Yes. And during those years, he consistently exceeded expectations while being told to “wait for the next review cycle.” CEO: But budgets are complicated for internal employees. HR: Apparently not for external candidates. The new hire budget was approved in three days. His raise request sat for eight months. CEO: We had to stay competitive in the hiring market. HR: He was part of that same market. The only difference is that another company valued him before we did. CEO: So he left over salary? HR: Not just salary. He left because he realized loyalty was being rewarded less than leaving. CEO: That is unfortunate. HR: Yes. Companies will sometimes trust a candidate after a 45-minute interview more than an employee who already proved themselves for five years. CEO: So what are you saying? HR: If companies only recognize employee value after a resignation letter appears, then eventually employees will stop waiting to be appreciated internally. Sometimes the fastest way for an employee to get market value is to stop being your employee.

@docsmsft Like Linux?

If Windows were designed today, would the Registry still exist? Mark Russinovich breaks down how the Registry works—and why a more flexible, file-based configuration model might win out in a modern design. Registry info: msft.it/6012vpoK0

@VadimYuryev Microsoft has always overpriced their Surface line.

I've been testing and reviewing MacBooks and Windows Laptops for 10 years. I've NEVER seen Apple provide 2x the RAM and storage for $200 LESS than a Windows laptop.. until now.

I got my @github Copilot app notice this morning. I expected some rough edges but this is worse than I thought.

@zo0r @Railway @neondatabase We left Railway before our trial ended. Couldn't trust putting our business in their hands.

we migrated our production apis 1 hour ago after a 40-minute outage. more than 2 hours later, @railway is still down. @railway is for cloud what @neondatabase is for databases. since our platform launch, we've had three outages. guess who was behind every one? yes, @railway. big mistake trusting you.

@Samaytwt I use it for lots of things. Not primarily coding. I love Gemini.

Not a single person i have ever spoken to uses gemini for coding. this is still very very weird. why is gemini so bad at coding when google has scoured the web full of code for decades?

To prevent "programmatic use", Claude Code may now request webcam access to assure user is present when prompting

I was 9 when I saw Spielberg's 1941. I didn't care that it was loud, chaotic, juvenile, uneven and an "assualt on our eyes and ears". I liked it BECAUSE of those things. And it made me a lifelong fan of John Belushi, for which I'm grateful.
