TBH, it looks to me as a trick to enable extra usage by baiting me with $20 credit by toggling on the feature that lets me burn another $20 without realizing it.
> Young people are consuming news less frequently than older people...
> Young people are also less interested in news...
Haven't the youth always consumed less news and been less interested? The question is if the current youth consume less and are less interested compared to when the current old people were young, no?
> There was high turnover from the lack of headcount and overwork which was somewhat alleviated by lowering the hiring bar...
Seen this game played before, at AWS working on the control plane for outposts. The correct solution here is dedicated operations staff to coordinate with the team and let the developers fast track issues that are resulting in high call volumes, not lowering the hiring bar for the entire team. The problem you run into with high call volumes and small teams is that it disrupts most developers enough that they can't build solutions and deal with the maintenance burden at the same time. You bleed talent because it places way more stress than necessary on the team.
It could if connectivity to Telegram were brought in through e.g. Starlink. Users would connect to the proxy (an Iranian address) which forwards the requests to the outside world.
Yes, Its sad to see the reactionary hate triggered by a misleading article.
The number from 2025 is not really relevant when the layoffs were in March 2026. The article author clearly has a narrative they want to push.
And of the 436 petitions in 2026, only 235 are new hires (remaining are continuing approvals). Hardly a scandal there. Especially if they're likely hiring AI engineers and laying off call center employees - its not like their laying off an american citizen to hire a cheap H1B employee as this article is angling to have the reader believe.
> I think we all jumped on the AI mothership with our eyes closed
Oh no, there's plenty of us willing to say we told you so.
What's more interesting to me is what it's going to look like if big companies start removing "AI usage" from their performance metrics and cease compelling us to use it. More than anything else, that's been the dumbest thing to happen with this whole craze.
Of course - this is all the classic thirst for power and control over little people, served in digital sauce with "think of the children" crumble.
The question is if there's any chance for changes or EU falls apart much to the delight of its enemies. Because there are people in the continent who'd gladly revert back to political status-quo and alliances from the past and they do work to achieve their goals.
> although it is not clear to me how much alive is the project
It's essentially dead. There are very few practical applications for it - modern embedded RTOSes are better suited to low-memory MMU-less parts, and SoCs with a MMU and more memory that can run a "real" Linux aren't very expensive.
Nope, I paid for an Anthropic subscription that I could use with the Agents SDK. Then they decided I shouldn't be able to use that, just because.
> If Tesla offered $10/month charging for your Tesla
No, "if Tesla offered $10/month for 100 kWh of charging", and yes, I expect to use those 100 kWh with any vehicle I want, because there's a limit on the resource I'm paying for.
I can understand caps on unlimited, I can't understand caps when there are strict limits.
Is this going to nuke all bring your own API 3rd party tools? I've been casually using fewshell https://github.com/few-sh/fewshell with my Claude api key, I really hope it's going to keep working. I've just finally managed to turn myself into a reasonable devops team with it.
