I just sent a GDPR complaint to a company. My integration into 🇪🇺 is complete.
Astra is able to create Apple signing certificate using browser and go through full iOS publishing pipeline.
Pace the frontier, it gets dangerously close to super-intelligence.
Why don't you do it for me @google ? Why are there even two input fields to begin with?
I built an app for sorting through hundreds of photos on SD card after coming home from a photoshoot.
There is no killer feature. No cloud. No novel AI ideas.
It is just a very fast, native, Mac app for doing a thing.

Border control in the Netherlands would always judge me by saying:
"You live here for 8 years and only barely speak the language?"
Sir, the fact that you just asked me this in perfect English is kind of the root of the problem here.

@igor_os777 When I first moved to the Netherlands people who heard my English accent immediately switched to English which hampered my learning of the language. So, when someone switched to English, I carried on replying in Dutch. My stubborn persistence eventually led to me becoming fluent.

They severely nerfed GPT-6 Astra since it was launched and you can't convince me otherwise.
Feels like they are serving something like Sol or Terra instead.
The reason you are annoyed by an AI-generated text is because it is not clear whether reading it is going to pay off.
Before AI, there was a strong correlation between its length and quality. Someone must've deemed it worth their time to write it.
What that means for your AI product - trim down that fat, constrain the agent to produce no more than 150 characters of output.

It is "killing the plan mode", not "killing plan" mode. Abort, abort!
we’re thinking of killing plan mode and using the shift+tab hotkey to adjust effort levels
I don’t think the models need plan mode anymore, but if you’re a plan mode diehard would love to get your feedback on why

Staff Engineer is the worst position.
20% salary bump, 100% expectations bump.
they don’t tell you this, but when you become a staff engineer they expect you to perform 1 miracle a year

Jev forces us to face the uncomfortable truth
Whatever the decision you were going to make based on these numbers - good luck @thsottiaux
Hot take - all of our software is a really smart switch statement.
hype-free explanation of jev:
jev does not replace gpt / claude
jev is just a *really* smart switch statement
like if 2016 ml classifiers got 2026 levels of intelligence
it's a new* type of tool that will make a lot of workloads insanely fast, cheap, and accurate
* = and by new, i mean rebranded
~~~
it needs a predefined set of options and it will tell you which one to take
it cannot:
- write code
- generate natural language
- reason step by step / show its work
- produce any output you didn't define in advance
- pick from more than ~255 options in one shot
but it can:
- classify, route, score, rank
- give confidence
- pick the right branch, tool, model, or sub-agent
- judge / verify / guardrail an llm's output
- label tons and tons of rows
~~~
i'd imagine a lot of workflows that look like:
llm proposes options → jev decides → code executes
and i see this fitting *really* well with code mode and mcp
~~~
implying this will lead to agi seems incredibly far fetched to me, but i don't want to discount the types of applications that this will make possible

Back in the days I was working for one of Daimler startups as a dev contractor.
I worked with that team for about 6 months by then, until legal department at Daimler realized that I was treated as a regular teammate. And then the fun started.
Daimler's legal insisted that:
- I had to have a nameplate on my table with a clear sign that I am a contractor.
- My desk had be surrounded by a WARNING perimeter (I kid your not). In the open-space office.
- I was not allowed to attend team meetings. Any of them.
- Worst of all - I was not allowed to use the coffee machine.

Ich erinnere mich noch wie die Legal-Abteilung bei Daimler ernsthaft meinte, wir müssen in der App (4 Mio B2C Nutzer), auf JEDER App Page einen Button rechts unten haben mit dem die terms und disclaimer usw geöffnet werden.
Wenn es nach Legal geht, steht über, unter und auf jedem Button noch 24 Seiten Anwaltsgelaber.
Der Job des Unternehmers ist dann zu sagen: Nein - Risiko gehe ich ein.

Next thing they ban is development of the Death Star?
BREAKING: 40 British MPs have signed a letter to Prime Minister Andy Burnham calling for a ban on the development of superintelligent AI.
