There's so much text but nothing that clearly says what it is. Is it HTML and its contents (e.g. images) in a binary format?

I've read thousands of HN posts and comments, "just in case" it'll be useful someday, but I'm not sure if my life would have been meaningfully worse had I lived under a rock instead.

I like the idea of the term, but would want capture these: 1. Refinement, where things are made super-concentrated and pure 2. Supernormal stimuli, where the effect becomes unnaturally intense 3. How easy it becomes to consume the result So

Humans can likely be cloned too. Imagine 10,000 Albert Einsteins and John von Neumanns working together with modern AI on medical, scientific, and societal issues. Though there could be an Evil Einstein due to upbringing or something.

This is so lame, it seems like a small number of pedophiles have forced us to deal with all this age verification stuff. Porn has always been around (national geographic, anyone), and parents can use screen time to limit access for their ch

My prescription recently changed and I would have needed contacts again. Permanent solution to a potentially changing problem doesn't sound good.

There's a niche in TikTok content about corneal neuralgia. People who got LASIK, but the nerves didn't heal right afterwards. The result is permanent, severe eye pain for the rest of their lives.

Salary positions at most companies will have a nice laugh, then move on to the next candidate. I think being able to do this is exceedingly rare.

Alright guys, I'm running for president. 4 day work weeks (8 hours each) for employees or prison.

Same answer as for most hope-filled employee questions sadly: You get to keep your job. You agreed to accept X pay for 40 hours, do it or we'll find someone else who will.

As a TS dev also who wouldn't really think to consider Elixir, that's interesting. To sum it up, it seems that Elixir naturally provides the distributed routing and computing model needed for realtime communication, while you&#x27

Thanks, interestingly Elixir handles concurrency in what seems like a natural way, actors passing messages to each other. It's cool that this way is used in production, though it seems to be used mainly in niche distributed scaling.

Really interested in hearing more about the architecture. Especially (1) why you chose Elixir, Phoenix over TS (2) how you dealt with real-time multiplayer. Aside: The links to the web game in the post don't lead to being able to play.

If a human can learn from existing art and information, how is that different from an AI learning on the same? Or replace AI with a new sentient being that is discovered. What one does with the learning seems to be the issue. If a human exa

I was surprised to find out how much hate there is for AI in art. An artist, Yuumei, is the perfect candidate to use AI– drawing by hand since early 2000s, wrist injury precluding heavy work. People seem to think art should be done only by

Don't listen to him– he is a cat burglar, and you being deaf at night helps him steal your cats.

Outright lie clickbait. As he states himself, he's doing the design work by hand, and will likely still use AI to write code.

Good point, I assumed he was using images because his screenshots show text perfectly following the curves of rivers, which seems hard to do with dynamic rendering.

Let's start by banning words like 'pediatric' instead, which directly reference children and are thus more related to pedophiles. We can just call people 'doctor/dentist for small people'.

For others curious like I was, it seems he hired a cartographer to render essentially a set of huge, nice-looking, custom map images with details like hiking trails that Apple Maps doesn't have. So unlike Apple Maps, which is dynamical

Same story here (basic was too slow for a phoenix/movable-ship-shooter game). Do you think you could remember most of Z80 ASM? I looked at some old ASM I wrote long ago, and it's hard to follow the logic of the program, since most

Does this make Android the same as iOS now, in terms of how locked down it is?

In USA, I personally get 3-5 spam phone calls and voicemails daily. Mostly all the same, like "your $20K loan is almost ready". One time, I picked up, and it was this seemingly incredibly rude person who sounded real but continue

Who else constantly pushes their sleep time by 1-2 hours a day, and likes 9-10 hours of sleep? Also, these days it's nearly impossible to stay awake watching a show for more than 10-15 minutes while lying down in bed before a powerful

When I got older, night urination became an issue. But it doesn't happen as long as I control my liquids at night. If you controlled your liquids at night, couldn't you make it nearly physically impossible to have to urinate frequ

Honestly, it's gotta feel like Christmas to e-criminals right now. So many new toys and ways to scam or extort people. And so many potential innovations to explore as well lol.
