I don’t understand how they don’t know that as soon as you make a metric, people will try as hard as they can to game it, making the metric useless.

I change it to not be pooled. I am not going to used them conservatively for someone else to blow the entire plan on me.

Yesterday I had a meeting where I explained this to my team. Nobody can use Opus anymore and shoot for under 5% of your monthly budget per work day. They better pray that I am the first one to run out of credits, I won’t buy more until that. From today alone it looks grim, they changed something in the harness too, making it burn credits. I would say we use it very lightly and we are in trouble. It is going to be a blood bath. Does anyone know if the JetBrains plan is more token efficient? I am also looking at just paying API cost for a cheap model on openrouter.

Cosplayers are going to be pissed.

I actually have never had to deal with office 2003 in a professional capacity, so I could not tell you. From what I remember the word processor always worked, it was Outlook that did not work eventually. After end of life they don’t add new auth methods to the old software. Running Office 2013 and Outlook 2021 side by side was a disaster.

Is that office 2003 works on my system? Or Office 2003 at 3 different customers with an endless variety of hardware and OS combinations, mostly works?

When I sold customers office a couple years ago. I would give them two options, you can go with MS365( or what ever bullshit they call it now) and pay the yearly subscription to always have the newest product. Or you could buy perpetuals and hope they don’t start sunsetting perpetuals faster than they did back then. They have always made perpetuals unusable after 6+ years through one mechanism or another.

Im June they are switching Copilot to metered usage . People are going to be out of credits on the third day.

The F-35 is very underwhelming and unreliable. They don’t perform as advertised. Everyone should stay away from them.

I did not even tie that basic business principle to him on purpose. Back in the day grocery stores, gas stations, etc. Used to have collections of pictures of people that wrote bad cheques to tell the employees who was blacklisted from paying with cheques. It usually took more than one bad cheque to get your picture on the wall too. The concept is so simple.

Remember, I have seen those things out in wild as recently as 5 years ago.

Use toslink for all. Does the USB connection to your PC and/or HDMI extractor work with digital signals like Dolby whatever?

Are you referring to DP interfacing through UBS-C?

We are even honoring a massive LAV III sale to the Saudis. How are you supposed to operate in good faith if you break deals/contracts? Nobody is going to want to business with you anymore.

We are stuck with 16 F-35s, we can’t back out of that order AFAIK. There is enough political pressure, especially with threats by the US that they will disable any US built jets if they have to, that we will get the rest as Gripens.

They most likely did something illegal or at least something that puts them on very shaky ground if they try to litigate. I am guessing there are multiple other people they fucked over and those people are not as ethical as this person. So they chose the blackhat path. I would treat any Windows device as a comprised device. It is possible that there are 20 other people, who are the best of the best security researchers, that were taking the low effort paycheck because it was a legal route that are now going to fuck Microsoft up. The non technical people who made the decision to stop paying out, did not fundamentally understand what they were doing. Mythos was just marketed as the best model for doing security research and they fell for it.

It does not help that tech giants have become very hostile to consumers in the last couple years.

Not many people are paying attention to this. I manage my companies Ai policy and plan. Yesterday I checked the Copilot pricing preview and it did not look good. We do not use it heavily and it is going to cost us 2x. People should be prepared to go back to trad coding.

They are changing the pricing plans to move away from the subscription model to a metered model. Beause operating at a loss is not a long term goal. People have no idea what July is going to be like, when MS changes Copilot to metered in June it’s going to be bad. I checked the usage for my companies plan yesterday and we are going to be paying more. At least 2x. Good luck to the companies that are burning tokens as part of their business plan. Either they get massive bills and go broke, or lose access to Ai after 5 days.

The GO train system is shit on the west side. They don’t have dedicated rail lines after Peel Region and run very infrequently.
