- siquickIs there a way to see the shape of the metadata?
- That links gives an error and so does https://openrouter.ai/docs/guides/overview/multimodal/pdfs
- > Personally, I think a big driver of this belief is a tendency in the West to not challenge each other's views or hold each other accountable - "don't talk politics at Thanksgiving" sort of thing
We’re in such a “you’re either with us or against us” phase of politics that a discussion with the “other team” is difficult.
Combine that with people adopting political viewpoints as a big part of their personality and any disagreement is seen as a personal attack.
- Suggestion - don’t require the latest iOS26. A lot of people aren’t installing it as it’s not great. You’re missing out on a lot of users and unless you require a specific feature that only 26 has then it’s no necessary to mandate 26.

- This is the thought I always come back to with the non-big cloud services. It’s pretty much always been mandatory at non-startups to have all databases to be hidden away from the wider internet.
- I’d rather not have my conversations recorded and sent to a third party, without my knowledge, so that your experience could be SO much better.
- Brilliant write up - learnt a lot.
- That was epic. The type of email we all dread to receive at work. Can’t fault Bill for his detail though, most of those kind of emails are “website slow, make fast”.
- This sounds like the sales pitch for the AI Prime Ministers in Ray Naylers excellent new book, Where The Axe is Buried.

- I’ve got a feeling that if you looked at the average persons average internet usage it would not be full of interesting stuff.
- I’ve been paying for Kagi for about 18 months and it’s pretty much the only subscription I have that it’s never crossed my mind to cancel it.
- My strategy is generally to have a back and forward on the requirements with the LLM for 3/4 prompts, then get it write a summary, and then a plan. Then get it to convert the plan to a low level todo list and write it to TODO.md.
Then I get it to go through each section of the todo list and check each item off as it completes it. Generally results in completed tasks that stay on track but also means that I can stop half way through and go back to the tasks without having to prompt from the start again.
- Cursor has gone to the next level with Gemini 2.5. The reasons it gives for what it’s doing are well thought through and far more in context.
Gemini seems to now advise you when you’re telling it to do something that may not make sense - first time I’ve really seen a non-Yes Man LLM. It’s more like a Yes-but-are-you-sure man.
- Cursor in agent mode + Sonnet 3.7 love nothing better than rewriting half your codebase to fix one small bug in a component.
I've stopped using agent unless its for a POC where I just want to test an assumption. Applying each step takes a bit more time but means less rogue behaviour and better long term results IME.
- Can this be used on AWS RDS? I’ve seen a few things like this that would be great to use but without RDS support they’re unusable for us.
- Building a RN app without any features (authentication, notifications) is easy - but adding those features and then navigating the outside-app ecosystem isn’t. It’s definitely not like the web.
- Strange that LlamaParse is mentioned in the pricing table but not the results. We’ve used them to process a lot of pages and it’s been excellent each time.
