is super ineffective, indeed. if you need to pay 20$ to get s.o. to pay you 50$ for a service/product, well in all honesty calling people one by one and giving them 10$ is more likely to result in sale.

Yes, exactly. Op escaped because he can allow himself to. He is wealthy and well educated also - knows what a disconnect means and is able to pay for a pricey trip to end of the world why his affairs cater to themselves. It’s perhaps less t

Indeed why not have —tui option and some basic menu? Even a simplified scripting with reasonable API would be better. I find myself bothering exactly zero times to memorise this obnoxiously long command line. Claude fills in, and I can expl

From my limited exposure to these models, they seem very very very promising.

Which is very sad and perhaps she should be aiming to introduce some very smart linguists into the whole ML:LLM thing that can learn and explore how to best to interact with the funny archive that models are.

Claude Code is a lot about prompting and orchestration of the conversation. The LLM is just a tool in these agentic frameworks. Whats truly ingenious is how context is engineered/managed, how is the code-RAG approached, and them LLM me

You know, I had the (at time of writing) 600 something comments ran through Opus 4.5 and do a summary of the sentiments. It could't find a single comment that genuinely defends Spotify or expresses sympathy for the company. HN crowd is

This, indeed, has mostly implications for ML, training, etc. As otherwise the whole catalog is available to partners, but costs a lot. So Anna did indeed liberate the content, but I'm definitely not switching off my Spotify subscriptio

well mine still does leave a trace, because you know - remote desktop glitters now and then, and particularly if you happen to self-host. also with multi-monitors and heavy window use it makes sense to have trails, than not to. so the old i

Besides, even during DOS days, and generally console days, software such as DB2, Oracle, and all the OS/360 offering, was doing absolutely okay. With all the UTF glyphs available to us now (not to mention the chat interface), I can tot

indeed i should've said "save for some smart tablet offerings such as PineNote and Re:Markable". but these are not so useful for data operators, unless keyboard via bluetooth etc.

I can bet they quite more often prescribe marijuana, or if you like - CBD or even THC in some cases. And historically, I've been told, the amount of morphine prescribed quite outpaces the alcohol prescriptions, right?

by larodi 11mo ago
it is very important to also remind - no amount of alcohol is ever prescribed or sold in the pharmacies. the alcohol was legalized in order to a) reverse the ill effects of prohibition which led to birth of large-scale organized crime; b) t

incredible, isn't it, that no single usable e-paper device is being sold. like no Mac with e-ink, no Surface with e-ink, no ASUS with e-ink, even though this is the best thing an operator can do to his tired eyes.

Good design of the packaging has nothing to do with underlying OS, unless say it overheats a lot. TBH, the N900 had a fair design, I've used one, not talking from a bystander view, and it was good indeed. Save for the keyboard that per

Microsoft did take over Nokia much later than the N900. In fact, Nokia lost value after iPhone showed, and it is only when MS could take over it. And the Android is a side effect of the fact that the .NET was not ready to run existing phone

by larodi 11mo ago
perhaps because phone capabilities require more chips, and SDR that would've made the N800/N900 too pricey. but, honestly, this thing was slow as shit, I loved the design so much, and hated this half-baked Debian equally. The fact

If this person with all his Apple-centric work cannot get personal support from Apple, well then perhaps no one does get it anyway.

It is amazing Nokia missed on the mobile revolution as n900 predated iPhone if I remember correctly. But Nokia did one massive mistake and it was to bet on Linux for this device. Even when they already had lot of Symbian experience, which a

I have experienced the decline in interest in Perl firsthand - having teached a class in Practical Perl Programming for 10 years at a local major university. First years saw 270ppl, second 150, then 100, 80, 50, and I think the last issue w

Vlad Tenev's new startup apparently does exactly this, but with Lean4. So what's not to expect here? Last two years saw so many neural-symbolic systems released that its very hard to not see where this all goes...

Of course we should! And everyone who says otherwise must be delusional or sort of a gaslighter, as this whole "innovation" (or remix (or comopression)) is enabled by the creative value of the source product. Given AI companies ne
