I wrote a blog post about LLM pricing: LLM prices are cheap, and that's because they're cheap to operate rather than subsidies. That might seem too obvious to bother writing down, but turns out it isn't.

(Also includes some fluff about the implications.)
LLMs are Cheap
A lot of people think LLMs are expensive to operate. That was true a couple of years ago, but these people haven't updated their views after an approximately 1000x reduction in prices over two years.

A benchmarking story from the same Flash UI library.

A potential customer with an eval copy conducted some experiments & had concerns. One of those was a benchmark where they tried to update a TextArea with new text as fast as possible to check the performance of updating. It was unacceptably slow.
More than 10 years ago, RAD Game Tools released our library for making game UIs using Flash: a complete Flash 9 runtime with vector graphics and nearly full support for ActionScript 3.

A fun bug a dev hit: In a player-name-entry field, only the letters L, N, and U were allowed.

One-character fix.

Six months ago I released Huewords, a single player word game inspired by #crosswords, #Wordle and #Sudoku: huewords.snellman.net

A thread with some notes 1/7
