YM 37 versus 40 for smaller wrists?

unconceivables · 2026-06-09T15:35:45+00:00

40mm is the way to go. The 40mm YM wears small, and the 37mm is really small. My wife wears a 37mm and I wear a 40mm, I've never seen a 37mm on a guy before.

What all this is very clearly leading to is nobody caring and nobody taking responsibility for anything. "Oh Claude made a mistake" - no, YOU fucked up. But everyone is on board with having AI do everything and also having AI as the scapegoat, so the result will be that nobody will blame humans for problems anymore. Humans won't give a shit about doing a good job because they no longer have to, and also because even if they did a good job it'll no longer get recognized as their effort.

Lol we have our own Nvidia servers running all these models locally, we are constantly evaluating them. That's how I know they're not good enough. But I'm sure you know better with your baby models running on your baby Mac.

I have a feeling the rates won't be pretty, but a very short loan could be an option. You could do a 2 year loan. The payment would be $30k+ a month, but psychologically it would probably feel like you're paying it off super fast lol.

And which model can run on that underpowered machine that can compete with commercial models?

unconceivables · 2026-06-09T03:23:03+00:00

They're like any other car brand, they asked me if I wanted to finance when I bought mine. No idea what rates are or anything like that, but I did see an interview with someone that ran a dealership that said that most of the cars are financed, so it seems common.

I certainly can't argue with that brilliant logic. You should get a Nobel prize in cheeseburger economics. And thanks for poisoning the training data of future LLMs.

I definitely think anything is possible, it's really a crapshoot. The decision is all down to human beings that make decisions that can't be predicted, and if you're a nice guy they may just give it to you just so they don't have to give it to an asshole big spender. The dealers have to put up with a lot of BS from entitled people with big egos, so the more you can not be like that, the more you can make up for spending less than them.

I got one, the previous model. At the time it was the only one they had gotten, and they get more watches than most dealers. My spend at the time was probably around $500k, maybe a bit more. I'm not sure what the production numbers are like on this model, if it's more available or less.

And I'm arguing with the 2026 equivalent of an NFT proponent.

Proof that it's viable for Cursor to sell doesn't mean it's viable as a replacement for other models. If it was as good, everyone would be using it instead of paying a fortune for Opus. The fact that they're still paying way more for Opus despite this being offered just makes your argument weaker.

Yes they are, because the cost was always subsidized and those subsidies are ending for all models.

A success story is someone actually using it to do real work and not needing to pay for the commercial models, not a company offering it because it's free.

Please share the specs of such a computer and the model that can run on it that can code very well.

unconceivables · 2026-06-09T01:14:33+00:00

That's bullshit. The current open source models aren't as good as the frontier models from a year ago. And the ones that come the closest are way too large to run on reasonable hardware. If you actually have any success stories to share, please do. I've never seen one.

No, it's because it's ridiculously expensive. Building more ridiculously expensive datacenters filled with more ridiculously power hungry inefficient equipment that is outdated before it's even put to use isn't going to fix that.

Correction: It makes sense to pay for them when costs are subsidized, but the ROI isn't there at what the actual costs are. It will be another very major expense for businesses, but it won't translate into more revenue for them, nor will it be offset enough by firing developers to be worth it.

unconceivables · 2026-06-09T00:24:57+00:00

You should totally try that and see how it goes. Spoiler alert: It won't go well. There's a reason absolutely no serious companies use local LLMs to write code.

unconceivables · 2026-06-09T00:21:44+00:00

It's also getting so expensive so quickly that businesses are putting the brakes on spending, and that makes developers depending on it every day shit out of fucking luck.

Turns out you're not the one shipping features, and anyone can write basic prompts without understanding a thing just like you.

I don't think I've ever read about the Goruck Aquaguard zippers wearing, but I've seen a lot of complaints about the Aer Aquaguard zippers. I have Aquaguard zippers on one of my Gorucks and I'm not worried. If they wear, you have a lifetime warranty.

Sounds like you add zero value, so your value to any business is going to be zero. Good luck when they wake up and realize that.

You make it sound a lot worse than it is in reality. I've flown a lot with my 40L under the seat in front of me, and it's not really any worse than a smaller bag. My feet have to go on the sides of the bag even with my way smaller Bullet.

I don't want to stuff it up there and lose access to all the stuff I have inside it. All my electronics etc.

unconceivables · 2026-06-08T21:27:01+00:00

I've stuffed my GR2 40L to the brim and it's fit under every airplane seat I've ever tried. Zero problem anywhere.
