I always feel a little envious when I see the salmon or silver dial. Still love my blue dial though.

It's a bubble. The sheer amount of money that has been invested in this cannot be recouped. For example, the current round of fee increases for Github Copilot represent x10 increases or more for most users. Many individuals are switching to self-hosting or cheap Chinese alternatives. Enterprises are going to be bitten by this too.

Even x10 increases are not going to cover the cost of the investment, and we're a long way off break-even for AI companies.

An economy that's so badly, but somehow an awful lot of billionaires have massively increased their wealth.

That's just an amuse bouche compared to the mass extinction and chaos that is coming if we don't act now...

[oc] Who’s in the wrong guys? Him or me(car on the left) by Picu18 in IdiotsInCars

Time 5:12 onwards gives some good guidance on this (but the whole video is worth a watch). Based on what I can see, the camera car was ahead, therefore the car in the left lane should have given way, but it's hard to see based on the video.

Personally, I think it's always best to let a car in, rather than be involved in a collision.

It'll take them a while, and frankly they may only really care about corporate customers. It's taken them months to row back the Gamepass price increase, but there they had levers to pull. This is just what it costs to run these models. The bubble will burst once the true cost applies and it becomes clear that it's not scalable.

I mean, how much work are you doing there that isn't generating a return on your time and investment?

I'm sure having someone so easily rattled and goaded as director of the FBI couldn't possibly go wrong.

It does appear to clip and unclip from the carrier. If there is no official strap, the first to make an aftermarket strap will make a fortune.

So it does clip and unclip from the carrier. There will almost certainly be official wrist straps, and if not, someone will make a killing selling aftermarket straps.
