A useful task isn't a fixed thing though. Everything the 2012 computer did you can still do today with the same amount of ram we had back then.

Tbh LLMs pulling data out of medical documents in it's training set and searchable online is likely a much easier task than fixing some weird CSS alignment issue.

It's less hostile and more lazy. The Airpods use standard bluetooth for everything that bluetooth has. The stuff that doesn't work on non apple platforms is the configuration, changing what the squeeze actions do and loading firmw

The world is getting more competitive. Integrity goes out the window when cheating in a test can mean meaningful better life outcomes and when you believe everyone else will be too.

Turns out toy drones are more useful in war than multi million dollar planes anyway.

Because pretty much all server software is open source. Hackers only care about attacking stuff that’s exposed to the network.

I've tried running qwen 3.6 locally and it felt like LLMs a year ago where you can get them to do some stuff but the tasks have to be very small and you have to course correct them a lot to the point it's hard to say it's any

Are you talking about hosted vs the ones you can easily run locally? Because there are open models that require hundreds of gb of vram which are apparently pretty close.

Most of the world has already or is in the process of rolling out their own payment network to drop reliance on visa and Mastercard.

Framework feels like a case of giving HN users what they asked for, but not what they actually needed.

Indeed, that's largely why I decided 10gbit at home isn't really worth it. The current 10gbit ethernet stuff is expensive and power hungry, the enterprise stuff is hard to use on consumer gear. And the only real use case is super

I've been wondering what the long term result on peoples perceptions of reality will be after all this AI slop. I've noticed a lot of the times I can spot AI slop videos because they just don't match what I know to be true, I

I looked in to it and it seemed like 10gbit was much better over fiber. Ended up deciding that 2.5gbit is plenty. The 2.5 gear is significantly cheaper and runs cool.

In that case I'd rather just have one of those big usb hubs that has every port on it. Rather than an adapter designed that it only works on one laptop. Sure in theory you could plug them in to any but the design of it is such that you

Not really, if anything we are seeing what a good idea taking kids off social media is and how crazy we allowed this to all happen for so long.

Rather than becoming a social outcast I’d rather support any proposed laws that take down the social media companies.

It’s not just kids. Adults are having their brains fried on AI generated political videos online right now. The state of the internet is an absolute disaster.

For the average person cameras and battery life is what sells phones. Everything else has basically been solved long ago.

And it looks like the companies distilling Claude are paying for tokens using the subscription Anthropic provides. Seems like fair play to me.

I'm sure all the artists and creators they stole from had stipulations too.

I'm ok with having last months model at a tiny fraction of the price.

Pulling out the worlds smallest violin for this case. It's just unheard of for AI companies to steal things.

It's easier to keep stuff up to date these days. If you have a project with typescript, unit tests, and end to end tests like cypress you can just have dependabot create the PRs to update packages. If everything passes you just have to

For the wind out ones with the chain at the bottom, you can open up the box and remove the limiter that stops it opening all the way. They make the same opener for ground level and highrises with just a limiter keeping it mostly closed when

The EufiMake isn't really a 3D printer though. It's more a normal printer that can do an embossed/textured print.

I'm getting CVE fatigue with all of these super ultra critical 10/10 vulnerabilities that are some node package that compiles my frontend can get stuck if I give it a malicious regex. It's hard to spot the stuff that actually

Because work done isn’t the same as value produced or profits increased. Spending millions of dollars on useless busywork that no one would have bothered doing manually isn’t productive.

That's a decline from peak lead brain fueled murdering spree though. The situation is still far worse than basically every other developed country.

Github Copilot is a different product than the Windows / Office one. Horrible naming I know but it's basically just a UI and router to pick whatever model you want.

Because these GPUs in data centers chew power and take up space. If in 3 years there is a new model that processes far more tokens with the same power and time the economics quickly say the hardware is cheaper to replace than to continue ru
