Love it! I too have been toying with reasoning about uncertainty. I took a much less creative approach though and just ran a bunch of geometric brownian motion simulations for my personal finances [0]. My approach has some similarity to you

Curious about examples of projects being killed by dependencies.

Pretty cool. What use case did you have for this? Text with paragraph breaks missing seems fairly exotic.

My mistake, I meant GPT-4o mini.

Sarcasm or cynicism is the default for some people and some communities. That's fine if it works for them. I'm not interested in it, and the HN I know has little of it. When I said "hostile" I wasn't talking about e

Sad story. A few weeks ago, a few US tankmen got lost in a Lithuanian training grounds driving a M88 recovery vehicle. They drowned in a swamp. Took most of a week to find and excavate them (they were under meters of mud). Last I heard the

It's not too expensive. I did some crawling the other day. AI wrote the crawler automatically, then I had it extract structured info from the crawled product info. It was about 600 requests to o4-mini. Cost me about 2.5 cents.

I ran into a Show HN thread not so long ago where people were outright hostile to a minimally technical developer that did something actually impressive, in my eyes at least, but he was open about using AI for everything. I've not seen

This is cosmic-level hilarious.

You're implying that the only quality a conversation has is (dis)agreement. I have absolutely nothing against disagreement. Why are you saying this via a throwaway?

Seriously, what's with this thread? I'd rather not have a discussion in this base tone.

I don't know why everyone is so salty. It's like putting "vibecode" in the headline attracted the worst in people. For context, I'm not a cooking geek or virtuoso. I enjoy it to some degree, but mostly it's jus

Haha, someone downvoted me for saying this!

Ok, I think this is actually the best recipe app I've used. Well done!

It's early days. - It will work as a library that a tool (e.g. family finance tracker) would be based on; - Every record will be immutable and undeleteable; the whole thing is space inefficient, though I've some mechanisms in mind

What bandwidth are you allowed? I presume it's not 25 gbps. For reference, I pay 15 EUR for something like 500 mbps.

I'm working on a plaintext, decetralized, distributed (multi-device), trustless (multi-user), immutable, schemaless database that's syncable via SyncThing. The trustless part, fundamentally, comes from records being signed by the

The way your comment reads weird is really remniscent, for me, of the weird characters David Lynch created. Those that were half here and half somewhere else. I bet weirdness follows him to this day.

I've watched Twin Peaks many times, and still the series dazzles me. The depth and originality of his mythology blows me away. And, it was such a treat to get the third season. I personally would not have gotten a third of what's

I don't know about NYC, but poor waste management in New Jersey gave us one of the best TV series ever.

An experienced Scala programmer told me that something he's found important is to restrict a Scala codebase to only some subset of Scala features (or approaches). That's because in Scala you have an extreme variety of ways you can

I'm surprised to hear someone say Scala is niche. To me it is to Java what Rust is to C. Subjective, I guess.

Not sure why this is being downvoted. It's hard to do something actionable based on abstract critique.

I've been meaning to try scala-js. If anyone care to share their experience with GraalVM's native-image, I'd be interested in hearing that.

Scala was the first language I learned to program in. I technically started with Java and some Javascript, but I hardly knew what I was doing. Scala accelerated my learning via better expressiveness, better abstractions for iteration, and f

In my mind, Communism as exhibited by modern China is more defined by the dictatorship style, than the economy style, not that economy is independent of it. So, I'd consider the chinese communism vs western democracy a more enlightneni

I'm not sure what your point was. Are you contesting the numbers she cites?
