Specifically, a Macbook Air M2 ranks more or less like a NVidia GTX 970 of 2014. But... the GTX by itself has a 145W TDP, whereas the whole laptop has a TDP of 20W! This is super impressive imho, but of course not in the raw power departmen

The author of the post seems a bit blind. From what it seems, SBF is a pathological liar. He tried to lie at the last minute, assuring everything was fine and that others were to blame. After the last minute, he kept saying that if you filt

As can see, Sequoia kept the URL but entirely changed the content. Therefore, it makes sense to publish this again with the archive link (was not my submission btw).

Coinbase respects KYC/AML regulations, which prevent deleting accounts. They have to do that and it is a good thing, like standing up against overreaching regulations in this case. If it would not be "crypto", HN would stand

Not a bug, there are actual search results for the last query. So probably a feature that since results exist, it's not a computation.
