I have a S21 which was released in early 2022. Bought it new in late 2023 for 430€. I don't see any reason to get a new one currently. Had to service it twice for water damage to be honest but service was free

Why did you name it tesseract when there's already a very well known library with the same name?

It's pretty clear, even on monitor, night and day difference at a push of a button. I'm not arguing if this helps you sleep better but it is pretty arrogant of you to tell me I can't figure out from my own experience if somet

Is it superstition to deduce that I get gassy after eating beans? I need a scientific study to tell me this? Same for if a screen hurts my eyes (not long term, like truly my eyes hurt) when using bright white colors at night.

A gangster will give free turkeys on thanksgiving while also selling drugs to the same community, enslaving them in the process. Very good analogy you found, thank you. My problem is you seem naive enough to believe Zuck decided to open sou

There's a few viral shorts lately about tricking LLMs. I suspect they trick the dumbest models.. I tried one with Gemini 3 and it basically called me out in the first few sentences for trying to trick / test it but decided to humo

A hired assassin can have an excellent reputation too. What does that have to do with ethics? Say I'm your neighbor and I make a move on your wife, your wife tells you this. Now I'm hosting a BBQ which is free for all to come, eve

And you believe the other open source models are a signal for ethics? Don't have a dog in this fight, haven't done enough research to proclaim any LLM provider as ethical but I pretty much know the reason Meta has an open source

I suspect the OG, grass fed, organic, gluten free, no AI Show HN will be dead. If I used LLMs to generate a few functions would I be eligible for it? What constitutes "built this with no/ minimal AI"? Maybe we should have a s

Restricting freedom of bad actors means enhancing freedom of everyone else. Say a a kid started throwing tantrums at school. By not punishing/ removing him you restrict the freedom of everyone else.

One problem with giving any feedback is that it can automatically be used by an agent to make another PR.

Can you provide examples in the wild of LLMs creating bad descriptions of code? Has it ever happened to you? Somehow I doubt at this point in time they can even fail at something so simple. Like at some point, for some stuff we have to trus

That's a moral debate, not suitable for this discussion. The discussion at hand is about purity and efficiency. Some people are process oriented, perfectionists, purists that take great pride in how they made something. Even if the t

I think VCs end up in one of four categories 1. They're too stupid to understand what they're truly funding. 2. They understand but believe they can control it for their benefit, basically want to "rule the world" like a

The footgun cameras had was exposure time. 1826 - The Heliograph - 8+ hours 1839 - The Daguerreotype - 15–30 Mins 1841 - The Calotype - 1–2 Mins 1851 - Wet Plate Collodion - 2–20 Secs 1871 - The Dry Plate - < 1 Second. So it took 45 year

Not sure I follow, you were afraid of being a "nerd" and dialed your ambitions to try to be "cooler"? "because it was socially uncomfortable to have people's perceptions of me be tied to the things I excelled i

You think after 27 billions invested they're gonna be ethical or want to get their money back as fast as possible?

I remember a couple of weeks ago when people raved about Claude Code I got a feeling like there's no way this is sustainable, they must be using tokens like crazy if used as described. Guess Anthropic did the math as well and now we&#x

If you already are an engineer it frees you up to be an architect. If you aren't, then sure you'll be a PM with a lackluster team of engineers. LLMs can engineer small well defined functions / scripts rather well in my experi

Instead of being the architect, engineer, plumber, electrician, carpenter you can (most of the time) just be the architect/planner. You for sure need to know how everything works in case LLMs mess the low level stuff up but it sure is

The problem with linux hasn't been the GUI for a long time, even 20 years ago you had flashier GUI than win / mac. Personally I don't care about GUI and just run i3 with shitty looking dialogs. The problem with linux has been
