JD Vance dismisses Young Republicans who in a group chat said "I love Hitler" and joked about slavery and rape as "a bunch of kids" who "told stupid jokes" and adds that "most of the stupid things I did when I was a teenager and young adult, they're not on the internet."

The city failed this family, just as it's failing to hold bad landlords accountable.

Those days will end.

We will rebuild the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants—a longstanding tool of City Hall that has been defunded and deprioritized.

And it will finally have real teeth.

Zohran for NYC

Zohran Mamdani is running for Mayor to lower the cost of living for working class New Yorkers.

Aligning frequencies must be a sign that paths are converging, it's pretty obvious right because I don't want to tell my new car it'll know when it meets the ONE and not to confuse it with parking perfectly

how do all of these companies think they can run at such a massive loss until they mop up all the customers when they're all essentially selling the same product?

Ed Zitron @edzitron.com · 1d

Jesus christ. AI coding platform Augment code had to jack up prices because 22.5% of their users were spending 20x of what they paid, and even after raising the prices, they're still running at a loss.
reddit.com/r/AugmentCod...

A handful of users abused the system so all are getting punished.

This isn't about a few high-usage users. The reality is that approximately 22.5% of our users are consuming 20x what they're currently paying us. This isn't sustainable for us to continue delivering the quality service you expect. We have built some very powerful tools and we don’t want to impose artificial limits on what’s possible, but we do need to be able to charge in proportion to the use customers are getting from our platform. Developers are always going to push their tools to their limits, and we encourage that — and we need to be able to charge for it appropriately, too.

You only care about professional developers.

Our core focus is on building the best AI coding agent for professional software engineers and their teams. If people outside of that group are finding value with Augment, they are very welcome to use the product, but we’re not prioritizing features or solutions that non-developers might need, and frankly, there are plenty of vibe coding/low code/no code solutions available on the market that will better serve those customers.

You are just squeezing money out of us at 20x margin.

20x margin sounds great, but isn’t the reality for AI tools: the vast majority are running at a loss, including us, while we work to build sustainable, long-term businesses.
