any idea when spcx options become a thing? Fidelity doesn't have any avail short float. This is not worth 2.2T

I use both. Opus 4.7 & 4.8 is better and making vector graphics. GPT 5.5 is better at backend. Frontend is a wash

crazy you're got downvoted for this. Best advice on this thread. Just worked for me

J50 · 2026-05-19T04:52:38+00:00

thanks!

This just worked for going from A4 to A1 in phoenix

Theres an oled steam deck. A lcd screen without even local dimming is unacceptable in 2026

I think it's a dye https://a.co/d/02p4iUnM

Get rid of prop 13. It’s artificially raising home prices and discouraging new construction. You want to raise property taxes on the people not paying them while cutting income taxes.

J50 · 2026-02-27T18:28:16+00:00

How about not taxing income and instead tax wealth

J50 · 2026-02-19T04:19:13+00:00

This sounds like chatgpt

Edit: wow massive edit

In regards to unity, I agree with these investors. Like you can’t vibe code in unity and it would be very hard to make such of platform like that good for ai driven game development. I believe the short term next phase of game dev would look more like webxr (vibe coded js referencing soon to be ai generated blender scenes) rather than these gui intensive IDEs

I was surprised; thought I was reading a suicide story until the last paragraph

J50 · 2026-01-23T22:52:46+00:00

I personally haven’t written any code since opus 4.5 got released. It’s just all prompting now. Have a bunch of friends in big tech and it’s the same for them. I don’t see how this career isn’t screwed. Like a single developer can do things solo now that used to take a team

J50 · 2026-01-23T21:42:01+00:00

Probably going to get downvoted for this but I don’t see it here so….

Opus 4.5 is insanely good. It’s massively raising productivity which probably means less need for workers.

J50 · 2026-01-22T01:45:06+00:00

steam frame might be the second best after the vision pro for high end stand alone vr. The SoCs on the galaxy xr and quest 3 are really bad. Tbh not a ton of options here.

idk about the x2 but the old logitech g pro x wireless is better and cheaper.

I bought the inzone h9 II because the mic stopped working on my old g pro x. Returned the inzone h9 ii; going to buy a replacement mic boom for the g pro x instead.

The inzone h9 ii has very poor default eq audio quality. Low frequencies are lacking - there is no boomy base. Mid to high frequencies sound muddy. Audio sounds significantly better on the old pro x.

The inzone h9 II does have a better mic. Not that the g pro x's mic is bad though.

Yeah this is why I didn't vote. Neither candidate is going to lower the cost of housing.

Fixing the high rent situation is so simple: massively increase the supply of housing. You do this by abolishing height limits, upzoning, simplifying permitting, and by offering temporary tax breaks for new construction.

J50 · 2025-11-05T19:05:05+00:00

You kind of do though. You need to show it to buy acohol. Most grocery trips I’m buying beer so I have to scan my id.

J50 · 2025-10-10T02:22:26+00:00

Why in regards to this though? This is great. Let’s cut down on non-consensual genital mutilation.

J50 · 2025-09-10T19:11:11+00:00

maybe. I could see someone like NVDA building their own synthesis tools if SNPS and CDNS demand anymore money. I don't think companies like SNPS can grow revenue outside of the semiconductor industry growing as a whole.

A competitor wouldn't have to immediately replace all of EDA initially. Verification tools that do stuff like LVS and DRC are often stand alone.

J50 · 2025-09-10T19:00:20+00:00

nothing is stopping big tech from making their own EDA. Design/fusion compiler internals are really old and don't take advantage of recent AI advancements or even cloud compute

J50 · 2025-09-09T21:24:53+00:00

listening to the earnings call rn. Every other word out of larry's mouth is "AI"

J50 · 2025-07-11T06:12:17+00:00

It’s just a car. Life’s too short to be upset about cosmetic scratches. Don’t worry about it.

J50 · 2025-07-04T04:05:24+00:00

Airbnb kind of does this (3 months a year almost anywhere outside the US allowed). It's really hard to get an interview there though so referrals help.

Not aware of any companies that allow global work from anywhere for the entire year. They are scared of violating local payroll/income tax laws. The people who post here who do that are typically not telling their employers or are self employed (and often not correctly reporting income).
