Short form amounts to, usually, a temperature check; what are all these people thinking? That's valuable, but you only need to check the temperature very briefly every once in awhile when you're uncertain what the weather is like.

I've been seeing more and more incentives to use Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc, instead of using a regular credit card.

What is the extra information they can get when people use those services, or is it just cheaper to process?

What's the real reason behind companies wanting people to use these methods of payments instead of classic credit cards

It seems interesting, I'll let you know if it helps me on my uni journey

why?

reply

At university I'm taking a course on computer networks and IoT, "again" because I did the exact same things in high school, but the course is definitely more interesting

I wonder if you blurt out in class "bitcoin solves the byzantine generals problem" what the prof would say :D

reply

I don't think any of my grumpy old professors know anything about BTC, only my cybersecurity professor has proven to know something ahah

Interesting how, when I use opencode + glm-5 to give feedback on things designed in multi-step by Claude Code + Opus 4.6, with a baseline prompt template and a single skill to connect to the forge, it finds shittons of relevant things that I didn't get from gpt-5.4-high or opus itself, unless I engage in endless prompt tuning.

Prompt template:

prompt = inline`/forgejo (context: ${org}/${repo})
  Review the proposed code structure in issue ${ref}, issuecomment ${commentref}
  from a robustness perspective and provide findings in a new comment to that issue.`

Relevant findings (on just a bunch of classes with only constructors and stubbed methods): 8/9. Only 1 finding was a misinterpretation of the desired functionality.

And the cherry on top: it gave Claude a bunch of compliments for great design decisions, lmao.

note: skin & flesh melting is a very real and expected effect of very intense microwave radiation...

it is happening very slowly right now in most cities, so the flesh disintegrating is barely noticeable on a day-to-day basis; people have a natural electromagnetic aura that helps them survive in the toxic EMF wave conditions...

however, there is a limit to everything, including & not limited to how much damage a human body can tolerate and my patience with psychos, both educated & uneducated kind;

Hey! Nope! Looks like they're exposing some of the tinfoil_sh models. The pricing is much amaze (comparing ppq to ppq), e.g.:

Tinfoil Model$/M in$/M outRegular Model$/M in$/M out
tinfoil/llama3-3-70b$2.89$4.54meta-llama/llama-3.3-70b-instruct$0.10$0.34
tinfoil/kimi-k2-5$2.47$8.66moonshotai/kimi-k2.5$0.47$2.31

Maybe this gives us an idea about what these LLMs really cost vs what the subsidized spyware runtime is offering.

reply

Maybe @marks has an opinion about how much of this pricing is matching the realities of running models confidentially?
