If it's open then there will be multiple providers. I see it is on OpenRouter now.

I'm going to experiment with this, but unless it's insanely more efficient in token usage than anything else I've tried, the only way to keep costs more or less acceptable is through a subscription.

I tried this also. I was wanting to arrange a piece for jazz band. It had good advice, from a textual standpoint, but the lilypond music very rarely made sense unless I asked it for something very simple like 12-bar blues.

Is there a link to a non-broken website? This one continuously resizes itself, which makes it very hard to read.

Sorry, but I'd be dead without mine. I'm going to have to disagree with you.

The interesting thing with mushrooms is that you could eat a handful, realize you are already dead, and then maybe not need the other meds at all.

This could be interpreted as psychedelic ego death from psilocin, backdooring into some kind of personal revelation.

Or as clinical death from Amanita toxicity, with some meta commentary on religion.

+1. :)

Man, I thought my huskies were dramatic!

We solved this a long time ago with crypto. Just sign everything.

Why not Delphi? And why not Lazarus?

> Why not Lazarus?

I've never heard of this or if I have, I don't remember it.

It's an open source IDE that's Delphi compatible. The author of the article is trying to make a Mac app.

* Downloads are from an ad-ridden SourceForge page.

* I download Lazarus I don't get a nice little Mac app... I get a folder full of stuff

* Starting the app, macOS tells me “lazarus” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

* On the project screenshots page, ReactOS is shown before macOS and macOS screenshots are from a while ago.

Contrast that experience with... VSCodium, the open source community version of VSCode.

* Download is from GitHub, no ads.

* Downloads a disk image with a familiar pattern

* Drag the VSCodium app bundle to my Applications folder

* I get prompted if I want to open it as it's something downloaded... and VSCodium opens (slowly at first) -- up pops a message saying I've downloaded the x86 version by mistake and I should download the ARM64 version and there's a link to do it... downloading the correct version and it opens instantly.

All of this to say... with any project, open source or proprietary there is a sense of native/correctly packaged for your OS that's obvious, and if a project doesn't do that I wonder if anyone is using it for that OS.

It seems like AI will generate opportunities for fixing code. Both in reducing internal technical debt ("code maintenance", which is a specialized skill already) and external technical debt (architecture, which is being built by AI also). Eventually AI will be good enough for both of these things as well, and then we may just become the priests of the Temples of Syrinx.

Our great computers fill our hollow halls.

The US Treasury and currency aren't important?

U.S. Treasury bills underpin the financial systems of the world, but most especially that of the United States. This is an ELE for the US.

What exactly is the concern here? Someone is going to rm -rf / on some magical server holding all the t-bills in the world?

This is not a thing that will happen.

You trust these incompetent clowns way more than I do, apparently.

/me points to the "Four Seasons" Press Conference

/me points to Trump's "billionaire" status

I don't trust anyone, least of all an elected official. Was my actual point not clear to you, and this is why you moved the goalposts of the conversation?

Why do you think treasuries are at risk of not being paid?
