I find this kind of thing too limited and you can't do much with it. I like to take problems from our domain. We work with all kinds of measurement data for agriculture / mining / utilities, I'll usually work through th

thanks! Now having seen the video, certainly not as cool as it sounds.

seems odd to me also. I thought tech people would adapt and embrace (and many do!) but I'm surprised by a lot of responses on HN in the last year or so in relation to AI. Lots of quite negative takes. There is of course downsides, b

I feel like for photos you are better off getting them done via a print service anyways, they are pretty cheap and have much better hardware

Personally I love people being excited about tech, and people who were really limited in what they could do being able to do really cool things with AI and doing all kinds of weird things with it. I find the attitude in the article really

yeah, I have a cheap brother laser printer, I don't print that much, but it's been solid for several years. I did have an HP, but it was incredibly problematic, would jam rather easily. Works fine under linux as well.

not sure what it offers? potentially you might not of heard of whichkey? Also, given how little is in the repo, not quite sure why you think this is worth showing on HN?

this isn't an appropriate response on HN, please read the guidelines on how to conduct yourself https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Looking for slavery, it comes up with Leviticus 25:46-49 but misses the context that starts at verse 44.

This just reaffirms my view is that big companies will lose headcount because of AI, but small and medium companies will (or at least have the potential to) leverage AI to do bigger and better things. This is because big companies could

was about to comment similar things! PID is relatively straightforward to tune. Also a lot of the time you just need a PI controller. D can be problematic depending on what noise you have.

a lot of the compatibility stuff on Linux runs windows software, so that's usually not a huge blocker. Having recently switched to Linux as my main (used to run it in a VM) the real issues are all these things that don't quite w

no, and this shows you haven't really used it, prompts are useless, access to context is what matters. It's because I have access to things that others don't that make the difference, prompts are useless unless you are acce

More and more I'm generating AI emails, often to people outside the company and often to do with technical issues / integrations we have / APIs. So far I don't think the people I'm emailing are really using AI as h

isn't this relying on properties that aren't proven about pi? it needs to be disjunctive or normal, and neither of those are proven

the real risk is using it at all as you are already sending them your data. If you are ok with that, then this retention/review seems ok.

The irony of an article that makes a false claim about what Google was found liable for.... and that very few are fact checking it :) The law they broke was a law protecting personal and business reputation against false statements of fact.

it used to be a hardware thing, so if your pixels were represented by a nibble, and the definition of the color for each of the 16 possible value is in table the hardware references, you just update that table (on a vsync, or even an hsync)

I don't think you understood the point. If it really is your "dream" you adapt, as someone else pointed out, there's people without knees who snowboard.... there's a bunch of things you can do. But quite clearly, h

by keithnz 4mo ago
The article is a bit off base IMHO. That guy could go snowboarding, he just thinks the warning he got creates a risk that isn't worth it. It sounds to me he hasn't even thought much about risk mitigation, or alternatives, etc.
