Indeed. They IPO'd in 1980, yet their stock price was below the IPO price for the majority of 1980-1987. It also fell to its IPO price for an extended period of time between 1996-1998. You hypothetically could have waited 20 years afte

Really? Every business owner I know outside of HN wants to be discoverable by LLMs.

If your intention is to take creatine long term, skip the loading phase. It might take longer to see full effects, but who cares if you’re intending to take it indefinitely.

Direct link to the study: https://jpbs.hapres.com/htmls/JPBS_1766_Detail.html I wanted to check the dosages they used. Looks like the review includes studies ranging from 5g/day to 20-25g/day. (Typical dosage

Replace "war crimes" with "hardware" and it's an equally good reason not to invest. They're valued like software companies, but they have terrible margins compared to software. Investors haven't figured ou

This is what scares me about people raising insanely large $10 million seed rounds. It's too much runway. Takes too long to fail. It took me 4 years of working on 3 different startups, with 2 different set of cofounders, before I lande

Until it gets stuck on a far away AP because it was the first AP to come online the last time the network rebooted. Not sure if roaming is actually the fix for this problem. For whatever reason my Ring cameras just love connecting to the wo

You're right. I was thinking of Lp(a), ApoB, A1c, cystatin c, GGT, and HS CRP. I personally like getting those tested at least twice a year in addition to CBC/CMP/hormones/lipids. I'm honestly surprised more doctors

The parent edited their comment, wasn’t there when I replied. But if you believe your organs don’t die when you die, then don’t donate your organs?

Yet, the metrics in the article are routinely ignored (or not tracked at all) by your typical PCP doctor. I think more frequent and more thorough blood testing is something I'd love to see become more common place. Even if it's fo

I think this quote is relevant: > Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. In the sense that it doesn’t matter if it’s AI or Algorithms. All that matters is people think it could be AI. If yes, then it is. Do

$300k is also on the high end. Most devs have a very difficult time getting hired at companies that pay that much. $300k is probably in the top 10-15% for software engineers if I had the guess. And I assume the top 10-15% in Paris is substa

I’ll volunteer to waive my rights here. Feel free to do whatever you wish with my brain once it’s detached from my body :) Can’t be worse than my organs being harvested for donation.

Pinning the version also avoids the risk of accidentally introducing new vulnerabilities while reimplementing the package yourself.

LLMs aren’t human. Humans & LLMs are more different than they are similar. Sure LLMs might resemble humans sometimes, but extrapolating LLM behavior based on human behavior is not productive. (But to answer directly: Yes, children in a

“I hate computers, so I refuse to use them” If AI becomes common place at work (I’d argue it already has), it clearly will hurt you if you boycott it out of fear or anger that the tech exists. It’s pretty simple

No one likes to see big companies avoid taxes. But I don't see what other options are available for states to compete with each other if not through tax breaks. Edit: I suppose if you ban tax breaks, if a state wants to be competitive
