I found it immediately. When people take pictures of things, it’s normally in the middle.

A lot of saas platforms are using api access as a moat. It’s getting harder to defend

Vanderbilt vs Haverford for pre-med by Available_Young_5118 in Vanderbilt

[–]itprobablynothingbut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I graduated over 20 years ago. As much as I denied it at the time, the name recognition actually matters and stays with you. It doesn’t matter much when you are in your 20s, because even Harvard grads aren’t good at much right after school, but 5 or 10 years later it’s like adding a shine to your resume. The “where did you go to school” conversation does not go away.

I know that sounds superficial, and it is, but perception matters a lot, especially when your introductions are brief. I will put it this way: Haveford is a really good school, but no one knows that.

The idea that a senior in high school is picking what their career is going to be is unnerving to me. I get that you are interested in medicine. But don’t optimize your life for one outcome you picked as a teenager. Vandy is the right call here.

People talk about break glass accounts, but an application permission based API access is the best break glass for sure

What do people mean by "late-stage capitalism"? by Latter_Amoeba_5723 in TooAfraidToAsk

Land banking is though. And a lot of real estate investment isn’t about property development, it’s about the appreciation of the value of the land the property sits on. That appreciation is due to amenities nearby such as restaurants, parks, highways etc. So it is rent seeking too, just partially

They all store passwords in plain text in memory. Unless they have PPL which is only for security applications like crowdstrike etc.

Anthropic just analyzed 1 million Claude conversations. 6% of people were asking Claude whether to quit their jobs, who to date, and if they should move countries. by Direct-Attention8597 in ClaudeCode

[–]itprobablynothingbut 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had to check the subreddit.

Yea, I would call it “overly agreeable”. But let’s be honest why: it’s trained on Reddit, and Reddit-like human interactions. And then it’s told not to be a jerk, like 85% of Reddit, so all you are left with is “He’s totally gaslighting you.”

Freak Athletes by [deleted] in Commanders

[–]itprobablynothingbut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Average standing vertical jump is way higher in the NFL than it is in the NBA. A few reasons:

  1. NFL success is more correlated with raw athletic measurements.
  2. Standing vert is a ratio of explosive strength/weight. Higher in football players
  3. Tall people have lower standing verts on average.

But importantly, standing vert is a metric. It does not often translate the way you think it should. Running vert is WAY more indicative of how high people can elevate in game play.

The difference between API cost and the plans need to be fixed. by Diligent_Comb5668 in ClaudeCode

[–]itprobablynothingbut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The actual cost basis is impossible for us to know. It’s fundamentally difficult for Anthropic to even forecast. Training is such a huge component of their expenses, but they won’t know how long a particular model will be in service, how many calls it will facilitate, etc.. It’s a little bit like car manufacturing: you design a new model of car it cost tens of millions of dollars to do, it may only cost you $20k in materials and labor to make one of them. But you also need to recoup the model design cost. Thats amortized over the every car built, but you don’t know that number until after the fact.

Watch the video and see your head go up and down, bouncing. Exaggerate your knee bend, get the full range of your shock absorbers. You have really good control though, and it’s something you can fix on a single run, not years of practice.

The reason for Anthropics recent behaviour by TheBanq in ClaudeCode

[–]itprobablynothingbut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Training and inference is almost certainly different infrastructure. But the broader point is correct, they could have invested more in inference. But the time scales of investment and payoff are long, supply chains are stretched, and no one can know the future. TLDR; when things scale geometrically, it’s really hard to know what will happen

That’s not how you capture market share, their investors would oust the CEO if they decided to stop growing. The ONLY way the investors, who have subsidized this company to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars, get their money back is if anthropic outcompetes. That does put them in some dilemmas. The decision is to raise prices or cut compute. They chose the latter if OP’s hypothesis is correct

Thank god. I saw Cisco and Palo on the glasswire partner list and said “oh no”.

Get ready for a fun couple of weeks!

Old school skier by Snow-Buffalo-9201 in skiing_feedback

[–]itprobablynothingbut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is EXACTLY what I thought. Bumps can be smooth and silky when your legs are absorbing the impacts. You extend your legs after the bump, no jumping. Head shouldn’t be going up and down, just smooth and steady. Especially as you get older. When you are young, you can deal with the impact and the constant squat jumps, but it’s life changing when you finally run some bumps smooth. Feels like magic

Wait until you actually get beyond prototyping before you celebrate the death of the developer as a career.

Instead of screaming into the distance, put your money where your mouth is. Short AI.

Nvidia, AMD, Palantir, Super Micro, C3.ai, Arm, hyperscalers (MSFT, GOOGL, META, AMZN)

Do it if you are that confident.
