When I used a head tracker (homemade infrared one), I just got used to shifting my head but keeping my eyes on the screen. Having a wider screen helps.
This is a great video trying to understand the artistic side of 2b2t as a persistent world (rather than the anarchy its more well known for): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09m5BAkkOtw
They are saying that the product is already available then implying a government deal on behalf of all citizens doesn't matter because the product is already available.
Anyone can use ChatGPT for free already. The vast majority of people using AI as a search engine alternative/chatbot never have any reason to pay. You don't even need an account.
Unlikely. Other than the telcos there's only one proper commercial datacentre here. Space is very constrained and the electricity supply stability + summer heat aren't a fun combination
As a complete layman, I do wonder why you would bother building a datacenter at a place that everyone agrees is going to be basically underwater in the next 50-100 years.
I used to work for a hosting company, and all the shady business like exploitation of children and sex workers came from there unfortunately. But that’s because people move their business there for legal reasons, not because of their residents I assume.
I use the free Chat AIs all the time; Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Mistral.
In the last month they have all clamped down quite heavily. I use to be able to deep-dive into a subject, or fix a small Python project, multiple times per day on the free Web UIs.
Claude, this morning, modified a small Python project for me and that single act exhausted all my free usage for the day. In the past I could do multiple projects per day without issue.
Same with ChatGPT. Gemini at least doesn't go full on "You can use this again at 1100AM", but it does fallback to a model that works very poorly.
Grok and Mistral I don't really use that much, but Grok's coding isn't that bad. The problem is that it is not such a good application for deep-diving a topic, because it will perform a web search before answering anything, making it take long.
Mistral tends to run out of steam very quickly in a conversation. Never tried code on it though.
I use a quota monitor and grind out code on Gemini 3 flash. Only go to sonnet or pro is there's issues flash can't deal with or I have a critical architecture I need nailed on the first try.
I still review every line generated.
Gemini 3.1 pro on the web interface still works if my problems are scoped to a single module or two and my better model quotas are exhausted in the IDE.
For $7 over what I was already paying for storage, primarily using flash is still a good development experience for me.
Basically no one who has a life outside of work, or a household to upkeep or a family to take care of.
Your criteria heavily biases towards very performative and obvious signs of hard work in a commercial setting, completely oblivious to hard work and character outside of it.

Hiring people based on knowing what should be built, how to build and especially knowing how to make the business money is not performative. I'd rather optimizing the hiring process for builders instead of rest-and-vest day-care slackers or leetcode grinders just for passing the interview.
There is nothing more performative than anyone doing these puzzles and answering quiz trivia, which doesn't make you or anyone money and it is only a waste of everyone's time.
