Ohhh, what a insightful comment! Thank you! edit: next cloud is available from the app store, soooo, have fun on the otherside. And from the author: > Apple gave zero fuss, we have had both versions on the store since day one.

Well, not in the us. here that is considered an unenthical amount for a semi-public servant. In 2011 they made 260k€, which was at then time about 50% more then our prime minister made. Which is used as a norm to limit how much you are allo

Yeah, I am in the Netherlands. They say paying donors puts them & patients at risk, because it would stimulate donors' to lie about their health when donating and we can't be asked to test blood for everything. And the say it

Funny, because it is illegal to pay donors here. I used to be a donor, but the energy and effort it takes were too much for me at the time. And plasma donors have to 'free up' a lot more time. Not to mention how i get a cookie and

Well, each byte is one I guess? At least before compression. Reminds me of a colleague who argued for tabs over spaces, because it saved bandwidth.

Vienna? I remember when it was considered suicidal to even go on the road with your bicycle there, atleast from what the locals told me haha. As a Dutch person though, I see no safety issues in this picture :P On my morning commute people w

This rings true. What I notice is that the longer i let Claude work on some code for instance, the more bullshit it invents. I usually can delete about 50-60% of the code & tests it came up with. And when you ask it to 'just write

Not sure, but the less technical a story, the more brigading and gaslighting you get in the comments it seems. It is a bit like when there is something about apple, the entire comment section is people complaining about the fanboys in the c

> Much like with the speakers, Apple are trying way too hard to be fancy here, and implement an adaptive beamformer in userspace to try and isolate the desired signal from background noise. Might be fancy, but it does make for surpisingl

Give it time, when I was younger I was not allowed to use Wikipedia as a source. Change takes time and in the meanwhile people will complain.

I did the exact same today! It started out reasonable, but as you iterate on the commits/PR it become complete crap. And expensive too for very little value.

It's a 9 billion market, projected to grow at 5-6% per year. And flipping/storing more bits also use more power, it is a trade off.

We didnt have anything to film with & there are no pictures from that day. I remember only a specific moment: we went to pick up my grandpa and i recall the shirt he was wearing very precisely. I can’t guarantee that the memory is genu

They broke the law and should be punished for that. Whether the law should change is a separate discussion. Also, change the law so this is legal for poor meta? smh..

Wrong. Google ignores robots.txt entirely

Yes, because everyone on Hackernews is identical and working on the exact same stuff. It's not like it's a few companies enabling this and each marketing department going like oooooh i want that.

Yeah, I also really like how that market put Humans on the moon & enabled the yeeeears of mDNA research that enabled covid to be tackled. Is capitalism a cult?

Going from how many gifted children end up underperforming because they are made to do stupid things & then getting labeled as difficult or slow: a lot more then you'd think. Being talented and gifted is generally not appreciated,

I use LLMs as a kind of rubber duck and secretary i guess. As in, I’ll ramble about ideas and thoughts and let it analyze an provide feedback etc. I am not sure if it is causing brain rot to be honest. It does seems like it might make it ha

It would be interesting to see if it can also play chess with altered rules, or actually just a novel 'game' that relies on logic & reasoning. Still not sure if that would 'prove' LLMs do reasoning, but I'd be p
