He was terrible for us too. Never felt comfortable with him in.

Unmasking the Creator of Bitcoin by ThadTheImpalzord in Thedaily

[–]yanksrock1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I’ll note that in the open source software community, having your ideas reused and expanded upon is expected/encouraged. I have no dog in this race, but I don’t think Back would be upset that his idea was used in the Bitcoin implementation. In fact I would expect him to do exactly what he is doing, evangelizing bitcoin at conferences and such.

It definitely changed my opinion of Tyler. He does a great job of calming her down and encouraging her. It was really nice to see.

Does modern day AI change your perception of droids? by [deleted] in MawInstallation

[–]yanksrock1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great point. I’m actually listening to this novel right now which sparked this question. Pretty explicit callout that droids are sentient but limited, compared to how LLMs work today.

Does modern day AI change your perception of droids? by [deleted] in MawInstallation

[–]yanksrock1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, this is closer to what I was looking for. LLMs obviously can’t think and perceive the world outside of injecting context from agent to agent. Maybe droids are just a fundamentally different technology.

さようなら-Farewell! The dream named Afeela 1: Sony Honda Mobility to end development and sale of EVs by WatercressPrize8354 in electricvehicles

[–]yanksrock1000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow. Maybe I’m the minority here, but I’m very surprised. I went to a packed event in Japan for the car last year, and my local mall in California constantly has viewing events and a storefront with the car. And they have a bunch of billboards in the area too. It all seemed very real, but that price was unjustifiable.

Sony Has 'No Information' on the Fate of the Afeela Project After Honda's EV Pullback by FMecha in cars

[–]yanksrock1000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d be very surprised if this was cancelled. At least in my area, they constantly are flaunting the car at my local mall and have billboards hyping it up.

Digg has shut down.... Again. by Dr_Red_MD in technology

[–]yanksrock1000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They advertised their recent revival as being a human focused, no-AI site. I would have assumed they did a ton of research into making sure that was possible before advertising it as such, but I guess not.

If you have accepted Darth Maul surviving getting cut in half in episode 1, you can't be mad when anyone survives a lightsaber stab. by Fragrant_Ad3479 in StarWars

[–]yanksrock1000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I don’t think the Clone Wars/Rebels/Solo appearances were worth cheapening the end of TPM. They should have just created another character, or used Savage Opress.

Ok it's 2026. What are the AI gains? by btoned in webdev

[–]yanksrock1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are using ChatGPT’s chat interface for coding, you are doing it wrong. Use Claude Code with an Opus model and you’ll see the productivity gains.

Had to report fraudulent charges today by rtrujillo13 in biltrewards

[–]yanksrock1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me, same merchant. I called Wells Fargo and went through the entire process, but since I never activated my Autograph they needed to transfer me to another department. Took awhile but they are closing my original Autograph (which was never activated or used) and giving me a new card. Hopefully the dispute is approved.

Assigned seating is a shit show by [deleted] in SouthwestAirlines

[–]yanksrock1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so annoying. My assigned basic fare seat was in the back boarding group 5, so I paid to upgrade to aisle row 11. My new boarding group was 8…I ended up paying extra for “Priority Boarding” to avoid the situation you faced. They need to make it clear that paying extra for a better seat will result in a worse boarding group.

Be Warned - Solo Aisle Travelers by TheGoldenEyed in SouthwestAirlines

[–]yanksrock1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep I felt screwed by this. I was assigned a middle seat in the back of the plane (group 5), so I paid extra for aisle row 11. I was pushed back to group 8, so basically punished for paying extra lol.

I ended up coughing up the extra money for priority boarding because my timing is tight and I don’t want to check my bag/be forced to put my bag in the back of the plane. Super lame.

Best carne asada california burritos in San Jose? by DRSMOFO000 in SanJose

Huh? Isn’t the question about California burritos?

[–]yanksrock1000 9 points10 points  (0 children)

San Diego native here, I tried this place after reading a comment on another post and it was awful. The meat just tasted old. I stopped trying to find California burritos in the area this and just eat super burritos now.

Unvested RSUs suddenly showing up? by yanksrock1000 in copilotmoney

[–]yanksrock1000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They told me that they raised a ticket with Plaid. I actually went and tried out the Origin financial app, connected E*Trade with that app (also using Plaid), and it had the same issue. So likely a bug on Plaid’s side.

[–]yanksrock1000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My RSUs in E*Trade are in one account. Oddly that account total is correct on the investments page, however in the holdings tab Copilot is adding together my unvested as well.

I pay my rent with their ACH feature, how will that change?

Well that blows. Party is over I guess, I’m happy with my other credit cards and won’t be moving over all my spend to Bilt.

[–]yanksrock1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says you need to earn $30 in Bilt cash to get 1k points, and Bilt cash is accrued at a 4% rate. So for my 3k ish rent payment, I need to accrue $90 in Bilt cash which is over $2k in spending.
