The author states they took great pains to adhere to it (i.e. alarms, timing his meals, etc.).

This was apparently a waterspout / tornado; seems like a challenge for any small watercraft. I can only imagine how the wind would have knocked it around.

I've had that problem, especially in construction areas temporarily routing around the painted lines. Kinda scary when you feel the wheel veer you into oncoming traffic.

That sounds horrid. Adding my own anecdote, I recently drove a rental Camry that had a speed limit detection system out in the middle of Alaska. It didn't do much if I went over, and I was surprised at how often it seemed to detect the

I found it fun; reminded me of Manna. What do you recommend that you enjoyed more?

Or cities that have seen a uptick in crime but refuse to either fund security measures or empower the existing workers to do anything about it on mass transit. Seattle used to have a great transit setup between the busses and the light rail

Sounds kinda useless, TBH. This sounds as if it assumes the exact same context window across requests. If so, given the 5 minute window, unless for example your entire team is operating in the same codebase at the same time, you won't

Yes. Or at least the option to use/self host one is great. At the very least, ensure the user has the option to turn it off explicitly.

I'm healthy at the moment and I'm still not sure I understand. Poetic perhaps, but a bit nonsensical. Old world as in the past? Older technology? Older ideas? Bad ideas? Blues, as in the musical genre? Or the feeling it conveys? A

I think they were referring to the version of Ladybird taking advantage of Swift v6. I agree in part that it is only nice idea until a production ready binary gets released; right now it is just experimental. That said, it may not be far of

It sounds like you still had a day job independent of it. It's probably a great highlight on your resume that is celebrated when brought up and opens doors. For most artists, this kind of fame sustains the day job. Loss of fame means l

Streisand Effect in full force here. This is more than just a PR mistake now. I look forward to it being picked up by major news outlets.

Almost sounds like a subliminal message for LLMs. Escapes (no pun intended) normal parsing to deliver an underlying message. On the bright side, we may see a renewed interest in word parsing algorithms beyond interview questions. Can't

This seems as if it could take a parasocial relationship to an extreme degree. Why imagine a deep connection with someone when you can have 'real' interactions with a ML-generated facsimile? I see this technology becoming popular,

I applaud the effort. Regrettably, in my own experience, it's rarely worth the effort to wrestle with wireless displays. Unless you either have 'highly' compatible devices (i.e. Samsung phone to Samsung TV), it's often r

And this is exactly why so many of the larger companies are embracing either more ephemeral messaging modes or outright deleting history. https://www.law.com/corpcounsel/2024/01/26/feds-warn-compani...

King's Quest felt particularly bizarre in some of the puzzles as well. I fondly recall the meager progress I managed in the 6th iteration, getting up that cliff, figuring out how to use the hero's ring as a bargaining chip, and I

Blast it, you are quite correct. Thank you.

I can only speculate, but I hope one of the things we get out of an analysis of the Crowdstrike incident is a thorough analysis of the consequences. Airports just a few days ago were packed with passengers, delayed planes, misplaced luggage

HN only gets about 5M unique users out of the 5.44B on the internet. Usage of the site is < .1%. It's hard for me to accept that, but by your logic it is basically extinct now. It's time to move on. /s

It's a beta that is.... approximately 19 years behind the competition. A beta that is kinda embarrassingly less cooked than multiple commercial and open source offerings which, mysteriously, provided both desktop and mobile web version

Yes, the absolute deluge of options for price and shipping speed is one of my chief concerns as well, even outside of voice based orders. This plagues the web interface as well, requiring you to either try and refine via search options (not

Yes, just ensure you can keep them cool. I have an old m40 that opened up my options with 24GB of VRAM, installed on a traditional case with a 3d printed cooler adapter + fan. While it isn't always fun getting older cards to work, it i

I also agree chess is tedious. I feel the same way about Sudoku. While I enjoy coming up with algorithms as part of my living, I take little pleasure in executing them myself (beyond testing and a few thought exercises to find the right sol

I was concerned this would happen to them, given how much power was being pushed through their chips to keep them competitive. I get the impression their innovation has either truly slowed down, or AMD thought enough 'moves' ahead

I strongly suspect this manifests more in folks that consistently intake > 100mg per day. I used to regularly intake 200mg total across ~2 beverages (mostly because I just enjoyed the flavor), and suffered mild headaches if I skipped my

Have done this very thing with a pair of Xreal glasses and my Samsung phone in Dex mode. Just be sure to turn down the brightness so you can switch focus.
