Awesome! For anyone that think doctors' handwriting is unintelligible, wait till I give that thing a spin

The maker movement is not dead but it's a far more niche audience. Don't get me wrong, get a 3d printer and an arduino(or arduino like equivalent), endure a week of suffering and you are hooked for life: this was my own experience

I've received several similar ones over the years. At this point, if I get an email from someone I don't know and it contains a link, chances are it's spam. I genuinely doubt github(or any other company for that matter) would

For some (and other not-so) obvious reasons I switched to Graphene a few weeks ago. For years I've been pushing towards de-cloudifying my digital life and there were several reasons for it: On one hand it was the constant content subsc

No one should be immune from criticism. If you make a well established open source project WITH the help of thousands of volunteers around the world only to lock it up and say "pay up", that's called extortion.

We all saw that coming. For quite some time they have been all but transparent or open, vigorously removing even mild criticism towards any decisions they were making from github with no further explanation, locking comments, etc. No one th

Honestly? That claim seems a bit(read A LOT) exaggerated. I haven't had whatsapp in a decade and none of my friends(scattered all over Europe) or family uses it. Viber used to be a big deal and to an extent still is in some areas of Eu

This particular one: I suspect openAI uses different models in different regions so I do get an answer but I also want to point out that I am not paying a cent so I can only test those out on the free ones. For the first time ever, I can ho

Saying grok is uncensored is like saying that deepseek is uncensored. If anything deepseek is probably less censored than grok. The doplin family has given me the best results, though mostly in niche cases.

As many others pointed out, the released files are nearly nothing compared to the full dataset. Personally I've been fiddling a lot with OSINT and analytics over the publicly available Reddit data(a considerable amount of my spare time

I've had mixed feelings about HN in terms of how people perceive a product over the last few years. I used to have an overwhelmingly positive opinions about the community up until COVID: everyone started making the "solution that

Everything that is currently going on is a result of people who are convinced they know what they are doing. Spoilers: they don't. The sooner the AI bubble bursts, the better.

How is any of that different from AI evangelists, be it regular hype kids or CEOs? "All code will be written by AI by the end of {current_year+1}". "We know how to build AGI by the end of {current_year+1}". "AI will

Pretty close really. Just enough to buy some plausible deniability I suppose.

Sounds a lot like "I'm not racist but". There's a website dedicated to all of his bs https://elonmusk.today He is the definition of a cult. Collects money from fanatical followers who will praise every word h

The amount of hate I've received here for similar statements is astonishing. What is even more astonishing is that it takes 3-rd grade math skills to work out that the current AI(even ignoring the fact that there is nothing intelligent

That's what I used for a long time but it was way too restrictive: like I can have 10 saved designs at a time with their entire timeline in case I wanted to go back or modify/improve anything. And converting an STL back into a sol

Fusion 360: the price I'm paying for effectively hobby projects(and ones I occasionally publish for free if I feel someone would benefit from them) is absurd. No other cad software comes even close to being as easy and as flexible thou

No, not yet, but People are starting to get the cold shower treatment they needed. Cloud services make sense for two groups of companies: 1. Huge multi-billion dollar corporations where the overhead of hiring 1000 hardware engineers to mana

I had to work with this at my old job(forked, messy-patched and outdated version). Honestly, I wasn't a big fan, mostly because of the horrible patches to make it do things it was never meant to do but also to some degree because of ho

I am not - I hate AWS(and cloud in general) with a passion - overpriced, you are getting locked in by a closed ecosystem the moment you say "hey this feature is neat it will save me so much work", only to realize that you are stuc

My initial thought was "cooling is going to be a fun challenge, in addition to data transfer, latency, hardware maintenance and all that other fun stuff". It truly feels like one of those, you-have-too-much-money moments.

Tbh I never thought of that but yeah, it would be nice. Hypothetically if you have a 3d printer, you can modify this guy's designs and add a removable battery cover: https://github.com/strtfnst/uConsole-Parts Pers

The waiting time is horrendous though. Mine arrived 8 months after I purchased it but beyond that, those are absolutely great. I stopped carrying a laptop in my backpack, just one of those with an additional expansion board and an HDMI port

That's (initially a small-ish) part of the reason why I've gone from "no ad blockers" to "block absolutely everything". That said, that is only part of the problem. Take tiktok for instance, which is a clean cu

I feel you. The moment I see a "smart" product, I walk away. With that in mind, I stick to the most basic of home appliances. Given that you are in the EU, you might wanna consider something like Gorenje - a Slovenian company, the

Of course I don't have any extensions locally, I am not a lunatic. I don't always have access to my personal hardware and I would never trust an extension to pass my code around over http to a server I don't have full control

That is already the case for me. The amount of times I've read "apologies for the oversight, you are absolutely correct" is staggering: 8 or 9 out of 10 times. Meanwhile I constantly see people mindlessly copy paying llm gene
