Flock won't help protect your shovel. No one is getting flagged for being in an area they don't live when you report missing lawn art. Its used for more serious crimes and to build a map that tracks where everyone goes, when and combined with your cell data who you are.

You personal benefit nothing and lose privacy of movement.

For most people it means nothing until it does.


"Opus delivered mediocre, so I did not let it finish"

Mediocre means average / middle of the pack. It sounds like its doing exactly what you would expect nothing more. Why would you stop it? Why would you need exceptional?


> mediocre - of moderate or low quality, value, ability, or performance

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mediocre

Clearly they were using the word to mean low quality. Why would you ask this odd question?


Core meaning: Barely adequate, average, or just acceptable.

Mediocre means of only ordinary or moderate quality—neither very good nor very bad, and often slightly disappointing

The quality is average but expectations of high quality are not met. He expected more but got what he asked for. We overuse top models because of this.


The claim was there is no difference between Opus and Fable but to me there is.

Opus delivered mediocre results. Not garbage, but would have required me to do lot's of things myself. Fable did not needed my supervision with this task.


That's the case for open weights models. Hosted Deepseek Flash 731 copy isn't changing randomly one day because the parent company decided to change it.

You can not find the value of 10 searches a day for 5 dollars and complain about Google. Yandex,DDG and Bing are major search engine choices.

Kagi has limitations like not showing sites with ads which many people with ad blockers don't mind.


What do you mean Kagi doesn't show sites with ads ?

They lower the rank of sites with ads often pushing them out.

Kagi lets you re-rank sites, and also lets you ban results from sites you don't like.

You are worth much more than a dollar. Each search is worth between 10 and 90 cents. If Google shared that with the user people would be happier

For the average person on here no. In fact 5.6 is probably unneeded. What DeepSeek 731 flash offers most wouldn't need anything else.

I use to want to use the best model because I wanted the highest quality output but they all produce that now. If you are trying to understand an ancient language humans don't or solve a math mystery or fixing old undocumented firmware maybe. If you are trying to create a react app or backend I wouldn't bother.

The rule of thumb is if Stack overflow could answer your question don't bother with Astra or Sol.


They buy you drinks you promise to leave before her teenaged sons wakeup

"My company has onsite mental health professionals who you can talk to or call at any time."

Can't see that coming to bite you.


They already succeed selling for 7 billion. Auditing is up to you and can be a new business for those looking for new opportunties.

Political correctness, woke/cancel culture, whatever you want to call it, is not censorship

Cancel culture is literally censorship. Deplatforming is censorship. Debanked is censorship.

I don't know what the R word is but there is a group of people you can't even look down at because they have been deplatformed and cancelled.

The left has passed laws and people do get jail time for social media posts in the UK.
