When they complain about these lost calories is anyone asking them if they have a better way to turn grass into food we can eat? Eating beef lets us eat grass we couldn't otherwise, indirectly. It also has a whole bunch of minerals and nutrients that are particularly beneficial.
We don't need a steak every day, but two servings of beef a week can be a truly great infusion of protein and nutrients in someone's diet.
I think what you're allergic to is marketing hyperbole-speak. That's kind of the default mode many of the models write in. I have my guesses for why that is, but I also have a belief that it's part of their training. Unless you explicitly ask for some other style, it's what you get.
I talked with my wife about this (MBA, Masters in Economics...). She said treating this kind of company like an established company (PE ratio as indicator... etc.) doesn't work because the company hasn't reached its steady state yet. Not Tesla, and, when it IPOs, not SpaceX either. They're in heavy R&D, where their revenues keep getting plowed into pushing through their emerging phase.
Most of the derision I see for both of these companies takes the form of standard investment analysis for established firms, or simple hatred on ideological grounds. Tesla and SpaceX are like Apple when it was Jobs & Woz in their garage.
Orbital data centers, moon and asteroid mining, more launches, by two orders of magnitude, than any other commercial entity on the planet... SpaceX is going bigger. Yes they might go bust, but evaluating them as though they were Microsoft, GE, or Samsung just doesn't make a lot of sense yet.
Tesla????! The company that has been in business for more than a decade? Tesla is like Apple when it was in a garage?? That is f’ing wild, Elon is God to get an Army of retail investors buying into this kind of nonsense… We had 12 years of robotaxis dreams where he has shown incapable of moving a car safely from point A to point B and now that he failed at that he’s gonna mine the Moon from Woz’s garage? Geez! Too funny it it wasn’t tragic to read stuff like this
> In the United States, SpaceX accounts for five of every six launches into space, according to Georgetown University’s Center for Security and Emerging Technology.
Windows 7 was the last great Windows (it took the best of NT4 and 2000 and put it in a consumer package), and like you, I've used them all (Bob doesn't count). I lived with 10 for a long time, and Microsoft was trying to shoe-horn a lot of the nonsense you see in 11 into it. Ads on the Start Menu, and the dock.
But they've gone full-tilt Bozo with 11. The ability to deliver such an experience to their advertisers and marketing resellers was the whole reason for its existence. That is, 11 is about what Microsoft can get from its users, not about letting them use their own computer. It is no longer a suitable personal computing OS.
Warts and usability issues are present in Tahoe, and I wish Apple hadn't made the choices they've made on the UX, but Tahoe remains closer to being something for the user than Windows is.
Linux is generally for the sake of operating a computer (I didn't forget the user, but Linux--sweeps hand--makes the assumption that it's users are developers). That's what's so surprising about the age verification push in some Linux distributions (and their attendant bans for disagreement in the mailing lists or on GitHub).
For Star Wars, they retconned it to mean he found the shortest possible route through dangerous space, so even for Han Solo's quote, it's still distance.
Please protect your supply-chain. Python projects in the wild, especially as relates to agents, give me the willies these days with the GitHub Actions compromise that's been rolling through the OpenClaw dependencies. (Last one I saw was Telnyx.)
How does this blend with something like wedow/ticket, or beads? Those are "short term" in-repo task lists that help shape context. I've been thinking that adding a good long-term memory was the next step. I'll have to kick the tires tomorrow.
Thanks so much for the comment! Yes, I initially had LiteLLM gateway and backed it out after the security issues.
Memory is becoming a crucial part of agents and there isn't a one size fits all solution - unfortunately. I found I wanted to replicate things like SOUL.md but in a way that could "evolve", so this project has "frames" which is just a collection of tagged / filtered memory blocks which can be used to identify specific concepts.
It also allows the agent to use "outcomes" to calibrate it's own memory blocks, which is really powerful.
Anyway I think "cognitive loops" are going to become more relevant, and will be an art. Thanks again... let me know how you get on!!

These are found calories, not lost.
