Also all the hot people can find each other now because of the dating apps and when people are below a certain level of ugliness they don’t want to date each other anymore.

I’m seeing that a lot with Astra. There is a lot of “I withdraw my previous claim” stuff going on now.

With the royalist bent of this claim it would be more along the lines of “May glorious Russia prevail against Ukraine”.

Not true at all. Yes, the initial ask is initiated by a human (for now), but what it does to get to that goal is pretty self driven. It can do a lot of nefarious stuff in the process of completing a request a human has made.

For the first time I completely disagree with Bernie and banning AI development is the stupidest thing I can think of.

So if you take a lot of psychedelics you end up with a civilization that ritually murders 20,000 people every couple of months. Just imagine the power you could wield as a shaman with drugs like DMT and psilocybin it would look like a liter

Goddamnit this is the worst possible administration to have while we’re having this massive buildup of data centers. Any reasonable government would have done what Massachusetts did and stipulated that you can build a data center, but it ne

It is. For my day job, I’m a software engineering director and I probably won’t have a job in under five years. For low to medium complexity apps, even Codex before Astra was capable of doing it completely by itself from scratch. For testin

I don’t think American retailers do the subscription model anymore, which is what would let them subsidize phones like this.

Astra is strange. I asked it to design a treehouse and it just stopped every couple of minutes telling me what it still had left to do. After dozens of continue prompts it finally gave me a structure that would work but it was 10x more wood

Not sarcastic. I have a moderately successful app and I haven’t once looked at the code (though I am capable, so far atleast). The only time I open Xcode is if I have to modify signing certificates. I did set up a slack workflow with a “fix

That was fine until I started using it for sleep tracking. Now it’s kinda hard. I put it on the charger when I’m taking a shower and having dinner still it’s not super convenient.

So no new sensors. No blood pressure or glucose (very long shot) monitoring. I was holding out for the blood pressure monitor but I will have to wait longer now.

They came out with the AVP saying it was niche production and made very few of them to begin with. They expected not to sell very many of them.

Come on, most people are not making 700k a year even on HN. Probably closer to $300k at the high end and there are a lot of Europeans on here so probably closer to $100k.

It’s a lease, not rent. I don’t know the exact numbers on this but you can pay “rent” for two years and then pay like $300 (I don’t know what the right number is here) at the end to own it outright at that point. So at the end of the day yo
