How many compatibility issues is MacOS realistically expected to spur? Windows DX felt unusable to me without a Linux VM (and later WSL), but on MacOS most tooling just kinda seems to work the same.

That's like avoiding the West because of fancy cutlery rules. Japanese people are not as thin-skinned as lists like these lead you to believe.

Nitpick, but it bothers me that your logo icon is not vertically aligned with your logo text. (Neither is it visually aligned.)

You probably already know, but iNaturalist allows you to filter by CC0 licensed observations.

I love how stylised it is while remaining more responsive than the vast majority of websites today.

I think these recent outages are caused by me recommending CloudFlare to an important client a few months ago.

Maybe it's a matter of code switching? I've read that some Japanese teams prefer English for practical reasons, since a shared second language prevents anyone from getting bogged down in formalities. That is not to say Japanese is

Somewhat related: the most prominent lottery in the Netherlands is government-run, but you wouldn't know it based on its ruthless advertising. At least it's going into the national budget and charity, I suppose.

In a decade's time we'll have many companies willing to envelop its customers in fictions like these. Even if "IQ" plateaus, optimising for "EQ" has too much financial incentive to be anything but inevitable un

I am not arguing for tipping culture, but I question the incentive for rejecting a tip as a US Starbucks employee. I very much doubt that playing a part in desired society-wide change overcomes the immediate incentive of the tip itself.

I always love seeing what people dedicate their time to when money is no longer a factor. May we all be so lucky.

Isn't this directly taking money out of their own pocket, or are tips going to corporate?

At Schiphol they offer tipping options to presumably prey on Americans, but the attendant physically reached over the counter to reject it after I ordered in (native) Dutch. Can't imagine how much trouble locals had been giving the sho

"Distillation attack" feels like a loaded term for what is essentially the same kind of scraping these models are built on in the first place.

Would you consider serving this as a CLI tool as well?

I like it. Makes me think of a neater, monospace, Comic Sans.

How much data until we can intelligently route hard and soft human expert mixtures?

As a Dutch person, I'm very doubtful that's the case, but I'm willing to bet a good ESL speaker is more aware of common grammatical errors than some native speakers. For example, the your/you're mixup makes no sense

Is there any benefit to individual states joining the WHO in lieu of the federal government? As silver lining, I mean.

Is there a term for "LLM psychology" like this? If so, it seems closer to a soft science than anything definitive.

> To post, submit a story whose title begins with "Show HN". I always enjoy how low-tech this website is. Not necessarily great UX, but it's quaint.

I can see how that would work. For a small website, you're probably only looking at a few comments per day at absolute most, and you'll be reviewing them anyway to filter/approve them. (And the implementation lends to easy au

What are the costs looking like to run this? I wonder whether you would be able to use this approach within a mixture-of-experts model trained end-to-end in ensemble. That might take out some guesswork insofar the roles go.

Don't expect ethics from GPTZero. If you upload a large document, they'll give a fake 100% AI rating behind a blur until you pay up to get the actual analysis. This clearly serves to prey on paranoid authors who are worried about

That seems reasonable compared to an actual developer (depending on your region), but I had hoped for these models to make simple tasks like this fast and cheap so those developers can focus on the difficult stuff.

This makes me want to write a post about the rabbit hole that is icon optimisation. It drives me insane when websites suffer from layout shift simply because they are not inlining their icons, for one.

> The repetition does indeed seem to because of the poor quality of the first telephone lines. I'm pretty sure it's also commonly pronounced "moshi mosh~" as a side-effect of this repetition.

Does it (/ did it originally) actually carry such respect from a Japanese perspective? To me, it seems like a pragmatic solution to cope with bad telephone lines more than anything.
