This graph is misleading. It shows the number of tokens processed by OpenRouter per day and per model, not consumer usage. Students usually wouldn't be using OpenRouter, they'd be using the LLM provider's website directly and the telemetry would not be captured by OpenRouter.

Genuinely wondering why this weird short clip of me pulling out the pins on the back of a Workshop System box seems to interest / connect with people www.instagram.com/p/DJtrmH2tq-1/

Loving this clip of S8FJOU just playing a tiny 8mu midi controller. www.instagram.com/p/DJzQNqhtDLN/

Lovely to see a Music Thing Workshop System (the little black box on the drum on the left) out in the world, in such an interesting creative environment

Same - replaced some of the capacitors, sounds fantastic. I think @amprepairservices.bsky.social repair lots of them them

In terms of epic ultra-prestige TV, we're just watching Pachinko - I think from reading your media diets that you'd love it. INCREDIBLY well done.

Started the build of @tomwhitwell.bsky.social Workshop System today. Really looking forward to playing with this beauty.

This list by @tomwhitwell.bsky.social is fantastic, a brilliant read. No.25 reminds us of the famous photo of Amartya Sen on a bike and links to capabilities. No.35 we fully appreciate as teachers! 🤣 Will think about this when marking mock exams in January. #EconSky open.spotify.com/episode/2r9f...
