Was this acquisitions strategic or because it feels good? How does this help ClickHouse make more money?

I hope the librechat dev got a nice payout, I've been selfhosting for about a year.

Check the comments below or the OP. I think Ryadh does a great job of explaining the “why”

One of the last 2 pieces of perpetual license pieces of photo software I have left. This software segment has almost entirely been consumed by subscriptions.

I did pay for perpetual access to it 2 months ago! :)

As a windows PC user I am hoping the compatibility issues wont effect me and I can enjoy the product offline.

i wonder if you get some type of compensation if you paid recently.

A one time license never entitles you to ongoing updates.

That's not true. I've paid for a one time license for software before and received updates until the next major release.

You've got much bigger enemies pal. This post is not appropriate for HN.

Do they believe that this technology has the potential to be miniaturized enough to be used as webcams and phone front facing cameras? If this path is not clear I am unsure how the cost can be justified to the degree of calling it the "future of communication" at this point.

I think people who do not know how to code are thrilled with it though. And certainly are having a certain degree of fun when not worrying about costs.

my issue with codex is it will decide to take forever and do to much for one line changes I should've done myself, and sometimes would make more changes than desired. Claude Code is much more expedient and keeps its scope narrow and rarely goes outside the bounds of my request.

> sometimes would make more changes than desired

It's really easy to steer both Claude Code and Codex against that though, plop "Don't do any other changes than the ones requested" in the system prompt/AGENTS.md and they mostly do good with that.

I've tried the same with Gemini CLI and Gemini seems to mostly ignore the overall guidelines you setup for it, not sure why it's so much worse at that.

I agree with this, I've hit it too, plus I hit Codex limits in a day whereas I haven't hit a Claude limit yet, but all of this is more than compensated for by the simple fact that the code that Codex writes will almost always just work.

Sonnet is much less successful.

The TM-Q is much more interesting to me as an outsider. What if these are clogging up city bike lanes for commercial purposes? https://ridealso.com/products/quad

Amazon has been using a vehicle that looks very similar to the enclosed version in upper Manhattan the last few months. Given their existing relationship with Rivian maybe they have some kind of early access.

We have quite a lot of those sort of things in London. They don't seem to cause much problems. They certainly clog the roads much less than conventional commercial vehicles.

You build bigger lanes. Paris and London are quickly learning this lesson.

There are already bigger lanes - it's where the cars drive. What is the difference between a Tesla and a TM-Q loaded with 30 amazon packages?
