Strange feelings looking at this... This is almost exactly the product I failed to get into YC with back in 2017... All the same ideas as far as the UX goes with one main difference: the business model. I wanted to apply the Steam business

I wonder if they considered that heavy consumer of Erythritol, especially in combination to Sucralose might be on average more overweight that the general population. Excess body weight correlation to bad cardiovascular health is well-known

Also, if we discard ChatGPT for just being a "fancy" autocomplete. What do we do when we discover we too are just "*really* fancy autocomplete" machine too ? LLM can output untruth but humans are really good at that too.

An 8 digit code coupled with a gradual rate-limiting system offer probably a decent security trade-off for such a service. They probably use an all digit code so that people can authenticate easily over the phone.

Off-topic but that first picture circa 1920 of the 4 sailors up on the mast is such a storm is amazing. It commands respect to the work and life of those men.

Come on. So you think political ecologists have no role in the fact that very few nuclear plants were built in Europe since 1990 ? Even France, the nuclear plant country(tm) has forgotten how to make them (look at Flamanville EPR fiasco). N

The way I see it is that nuclear disasters are terrible and costly, but they don't threaten the existence of mankind or our way of life. Global warming, on the other hand, is threatening our way of life and well-being slowly but very d

Having a look at the reddit thread[1]'s comments, it seems it does not really work consistently. It feel that this type of prompt injection jailbreak can only really work if the model output is directly returned but I don't see ho

Replacing really obsolete machines used as servers by RPI does certainly makes sense power-wise (as long as you don't need storage), so not arguing with the point you make about that. However, I agree with with the OP comment that comp

If not, I was thinking this type of services could be a boon to moderately-funded OSINT organisations as it would make you able to get fresh satellite imagery very easy and accessible.

The lack of clutter says that most of those photos were probably staged and don't necessarily depict a workplace on a normal working day. You probably came with intent on taking pictures if you came in carrying a camera at the time.

Yes but with cycling, the point of the e-sport is to not travel. If you have to travel with your bike to a physical location, there is no point in cycling on a static smart trainer, you might as well race on the road (which is much more fun

My take is that you can't have a serious e-sport cycling scene with the current tech. This guy was caught because he was greedy and the cheat was too obvious. What about all the others that could be doing the same but in a smarter way.
