Much has been made of the 'Robinhood effect' this year, and how its large base of retail investors have contributed towards the inflated stock prices we see, especially for 'meme stocks'. I'm curious, though, is the

The idea of an always-on group audio chat is absolutely revolting to me.

The obvious issue here is that we're intrinsically bound to the services that the people you talk with are themselves locked into. The pressure of your local crowd is surely a stronger determinant of which IM app(s) you use over the on

Does anyone have any insight on how much it would cost for OpenAI to host an online, interactive demo of a model like this? I'd expect a lot - even just for inference - based on the size of the model and the expected virality of the de

This is really beautiful, but then again my reference point is the overly bloated, always slow, and hideously designed site that is LinkedId. Added bonus for HN readers, because it's only just been released you can probably bag a nice

We’re fast moving away from physical cards being necessary. With the ubiquity of Apple / Google Pay, the TreeCard feels like a gimmick more than a solution.

Couldn't agree more. Though I've taken only a single night train in my life: from Beijing to Xi'an. While slightly pricier than flying, I had a bed and could freely move around the cabin. To top it off - anecdotally, though i

There’s a great Wikipedia article which is apt here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_effect?wprov=sfti1 It’s perhaps best encapsulated by Douglas Hofstadter’s quip: “AI is whatever hasn't been done yet”. The poin

The piece's latter stage thesis is that Citizen Kane is no longer considered the G(film)OAT, because in the more recent Sight & Sound polls it's been demoted from the its longstanding top spot position down to somewhere in the

My CS department formed an "industry partnership" with Microsoft (circa 2015). All of a sudden, we were made to spend time learning Azure, we were given Surface Tablets for building apps, there were guest lectures by Microsoft emp

Graphs like these serve to suggest to people that there's a single, operative reason at their core instead of it being a complex, multivariate issue. They also tend to cause people to over-attribute the effects of the story told in the

Totally anecdotal, but in the early years of Airbnb, I was a staunch advocate of their mission and execution. Fast forward to now and several negative experiences with the firm (which have only really happened over the last couple of years)
