"only a small number of users care about this" is a bad argument when those users are the people everyone else asks before spending money

Frontier model subscriptions are heavily subsidised. I made a tool to see how much my API cost would have been. It cost me $35 (and counting) to build this tool. I'm on the $100/mo business premium plan. So far I've spent $4853 in code, not counting chats. It's been three months.
Monthly subs are still heavily subsidized. Take a moment and think through (yourself, don't use fucking AI) what this means. Why do subsidies exist? Are higher subsidies good or bad in a severely supply-limited market? Would ARR have grown at same rate without subsidies?

has anyone found a codebase that sol or claude will just straight up refuse to work on? i bet if you pointed them at your average ERP or EHR system codebase they'd just start sobbing in the corner

Go congratulate Robert!!! One of the best SIMD programmers you'll find anywhere, just finished his Dissertation on what I suspect will quickly become the "Hackers Delight" of SIMD nerds!!
The end of a long journey.

Everyone benchmarks GLM-5.2 against the frontier now. So we did too. We pulled GLM-5.2's plan up against Claude Fable 5's, the plan that won our last frontier round. Same prompt, same task, same rubric. Fable scored 9.1. GLM-5.2 scored 9.0.

Hi. Over the last 24 hours we had three separate small incidents that affected Codex reliability. Those are three too many and we are taking active steps for them to not reproduce. I have reset usage limits for Codex across all paid plans. May the tokens flow again.

<obligatory hermes-agent shillpost> no but fr hermes is based and you can use your ChatGPT account with it too! (the nous tool gateway continues to be killer, though)
A little secret. About 5% of our production traffic is on the Pi harness, about another 5% is on OpenCode. Reminder you can use your ChatGPT account in a flourishing set of other tools. We’ll continue to make Codex awesome, but you have options.

Hyperthread is the Intel branding from the Intel region of France. Otherwise it's just sparking Simultanous Multi-Threading.

tl;dr: Qualcomm do not have an excuse here. they have the resources, engineers, and upstream experience. other non-x86 vendors with far less leverage have already shown it can be done. they could ship a sane client platform compatibility story. they are choosing not to.

Intel review system: burn Ubuntu LTS ISO, boot installer, install, reboot, works. Qualcomm review system: no boot menu, Fedora won’t boot, OEM says "QC say no Linux support" so they won't upstream a DT. That is not a serious client platform.

I do not care about firmware abstraction theorycrafting. I care about what works today.
