The US vs Europe discourse makes a lot more sense when you consider. Europe optimizes for the 20p wealth at the expense of the 80p wealth with the tradeoff folks think their socioeconomic position is mostly fixed. US optimizes for the 80p wealth at the expense of the 20p

Opus 4.7 feels like the first time I’m reliably using an older model because it’s more cost efficient. I’m seeing better results from 4.7 than 4.6, but not enough to justify the great cost / credit consumption.

Don’t let anybody tell you that a baby isn’t fun. But, there’s definitely something special the first few times your toddler specifically wants to play WITH you.

Okay, GitHub. This is the tipping point where I genuinely have to start a discussion within my org's leadership team about whether we should be using you for source control.

The FIRE movement has invaded my timeline, so I’ll throw in my two cent: Saving moderately aggressively with the goal of a 50-60 retirement age has always felt like a much more sane application of FIRE than trying to retire at 40 while living like a tightwad.

Anthropic is going to be a crazy case study for whether DevRel actually matters with massively nerfing their $20/month plans
