The fee is 2 SEK ($0.2) per transaction - of course it's for tax evasion reasons, +25% extra margin makes a huge difference for a hair salon...

What is a lot ?

I never has a fee for any bank for depositing cash, even up to a few thousand. I really doubt that will happen unless you walk in with millions. In that case you will have more to worry about that fees.

Swish is always 2 SEK not matter the amount, for party-to-party without the "checkout" feature, it's always free - which is why private persons use it on fairs and markets.

And yes, it's a TINY amount. Stripe/Paypal charge several %

API's matter - Language standard lib like Golang standards library or Browsers new(ish) Web Platforms API.

They'll be reliable and become faster over decades instead of being a "framework of the week" kind of thing and LLM's already know these from training.

Looking at the posts on HN AI topics lately, this seem to be the depressing sentiment.

If something that previously took weeks for a human to design, now takes 10 min, that means a whole week of salary went up in smoke.

When have we automated enough?

> If something that previously took weeks for a human to design, now takes 10 min, that means a whole week of salary went up in smoke.

To me, this is the depressing sentiment. The idea that, somehow, the goal isn't to produce useful things but to spread work out over a period of time in order to maximize payment.

At a high level,I conceptualize my job as "doing useful things." Whether that's design, writing code, debugging, sysadmin, CI/CD, writing doc, whatever. I just want to be useful. If there's some tool that makes that easier, I am happy about it. I don't think that tool will result in my getting paid less. But if it does, oh well.

>But if it does, oh well. I'm glad our ancestors didn't take that line of reasoning we'd still be feudal serfs. "The lord has come and taken all our grain again? Oh well, at least I've been useful to him."

If our ancestors worried more about technology obsoleting human labor we'd still be subsistence farmers. Priorizing usefulness is why we're rich today.

Weird way to look at it, from another view we can now print a week salary in 10 minutes. Might devalue the output slightly but we still have the product.

Who is "we"?

This is so often the essential question, and equally often unanswered

Undoubtedly a fundamental reconsideration of political economy is necessary if we are going to go all in with AI. As of now, this technology will exacerbate the existing 'singularities' and wealth disparity distortions in the socio-economic body. And now, basic fucking income is not the answer. Maybe pitchforks.

If basic income were to be the answer, the question would likely require pitchforks.

Derrek Fox, Rupert Hunt & myself of course, who else could I possibly have meant?

The person controlling the salary

this is a forum built around building your own companies, no?

The problem also is, if a human took weeks to design this, it would be much better. This is quick but also bad.

This really sounds like a bias selection filter. Humans spend a lot of time on stuff that's shit too.

The same value was created, and a whole week of free time was made available?

it hasnt actually be driven down to 10min though.

the 30min-3h of actual coding time is brought down to 10min, with the reviews, testing, consensus building, tracking, decision making all still taking up most of a week.

just ignore what HN said, most people still in denial mode

That’s huge! how large are records on average? What kind of throughout do you get and on what hardware?

You realise that the country to the right of Sweden is Finland, who beat Russia against all odds before?

Entirely different generation

I wonder whether you'd have had the same view of Ukraine prior to the invasion.

How much does it cost per month, which provider and what do you get out of it?

Hmm? I'm running the models locally... 2x Sparks consume ~150W at peak, and they usually spend more time waiting on results from whatever task they're working on, so I imagine that the contribution to my electricity bill is maybe a dollar/mo or less. Though, of course, each Spark was $4000, so the total I've spent is equivalent to several years of the maximum tier for most cloud model susbcriptions.

What I get out of it is the ability to hand login credentials to my other computers to manage their updates, bug fixes etc. Eg. After updating my proxmox server, the nvme drive kept dying. Was able to let my local AI in to figure out and fix what was wrong (known issue). A cloud-based AI could've done it too, but I don't want to be sending internal passwords out of my network like that.

Plus, the ability to freely delegate tasks or exploration of things cloud models generally avoid. For example, I draw as a hobby, and when I'm struggling with a pose but can't quite figure out what I'm missing, I pass it into a VLM for advice, but Claude etc get unnecessarily cautious because they interpret an anatomical sketch as a naked person.

I’m on X for tech interest, new hardware, robotics, coding. If X didn’t allow blocking words/phrases, I could not use it! And yes, my blocklist is huge..

TOPS seems to be low though, so fill rate is probably ~10x slower than a 4090.

Not only is it good - but the maintainer is active and really nice, helped me fix two bugs straight off the bat!

The problem with lovable, from someone with insider knowledge, is that many of the apps existed even before appearing there and where ported to the platform to ride the hype wave.
