For those curious this is a negative 5900% gross margin

There's one person who pays them $250 a month who cost Augment $15,000. Amazing stuff. Can only imagine how bad things are for Cursor or Replit
www.augmentcode.com/blog/augment...

The user message model also isn’t sustainable for Augment Code as a business. For example, over the last 30 days, a user on our $250 Max plan has issued 335 requests per hour, every hour, for 30 days, and is approaching $15,000 per month in cost to Augment Code. This sort of use isn’t inherently bad, but as a business, we have to price our service in accordance with our costs.

Sol's Atelier - Elfie: A Sand Plan @ Steam Next Fest @solsatelier.bsky.social · 1d

The amount of AI slop capsules I've been subjected to while looking through Steam Next Fest is insane.

The bare minimum would be to have a filter to hide games that have disclosed having AI generated content.

Wiki says Sobu Rapid terminates in Tokyo. Makes sense.
God it converts to even more lines once it passes through Chiba. Maybe remember those names to impress the kids.

YT said they'd have an opt-out "soon" - in August. Like, shouldn't you have built an opt-out into it from the start?

Oh, right! Google doesn't believe in consent.
