Thanks! I love kagi's ethos!

I'm curious, is there a standard benchmark any one knows of that compares "practical usefulness" of LLMs instead of tries to make them take some kind of useless IQ test? e.g. how useful is this LLM for 1) code debugging, 2) (

It's settled, then. I'll move on to using a different video chat service... They're a dime-a-dozen. Good job tanking your reputation and business, zoom!

This is really cute. I appreciate the sentiment and I think it applies even beyond SF. FWIW, I have lived in SF for the last 8 years and I agree wholeheartedly.

This is potentially even better than the already excellent website!

I don't think I can use this if it's not open source... sorry. The field moves too fast and the convenience is just not there otherwise. edit: also the branding makes me think of MK-ultra which is probably something to avoid

The word "bullish" and fundamental science should stay as far away from each other as possible.

I hate to say it, but I agree. Nature has outlived its "legit" branding by leaning too hard into the "product" realm. Most scientists don't want their fundamental work to be sold as a product unless it is a precurso

Well...the way science is supposed to work is that everyone is an optimistic skeptic until something is known for certain. There is generally a correlation between higher PR effort and likelihood of falling short. This probably originates f

You only have to look as far as big social media to see proof of the damage that corporate motives can cause on the mental health of average internetizens.

This is hilarious. If only I had some kind of app to help me focus long enough to download this app.

I think it's clear at this point that hackernews types don't want to see these thin wrappers around ChatGPT anymore. It was a cool genre of hacker project in February, but I'm not so sure anymore. We are already dropping into

The problem with the Boring Company is that it doesn't actually function in the "uninteresting" nature the eponym suggests. The fact that they continue ramming these underwhelming Vegas projects through without the necessary

I think efforts like this are awesome and I hope to see more in the future, but sometimes I wonder if some for-profit entity will swoop in and yoink all of the hard work these wholesome researchers have put out there for free. I feel that t

I love this response. I'm now thinking of investing in a nice fountain pen and a soft pencil.

Please don't take this as a personal attack, but this list looks like you used the very first option presented to you and then never explored any other options. (maybe this is a woosh)

WARNING: There are a lot of recommendations here that are very out of sync with hacker(news) ethos. Does that mean you should ignore them? No. But as I read through the preferences on a lot of options, they are seemingly haphazard takes. Fo

I have used it and if you take time to customize it, it surpasses all the other options simply because you can do whatever you please with your data. Sometimes I edit my markdown files in other editors like Bear (or web interfaces). Sometim

OneNote lock-in is crazy. I legitimately lost access to over a year of notetaking after my "complementary" OneDrive storage trial period ended despite having paid for a Surface that included OneNote. I shudder just thinking of goi

The toxic pit in this case is the transformation that occurred "ecologically" to the way contributors and agents on the web interact with eachother. This was strongly affected by the major centers of gravity in the 2010s like goog

Agreed on the big value of robotics in the near term, but Tesla won't be the company to do it. Tesla will make an "affordable" humanoid but will struggle to get useful and robust autonomy out the door for the entirety of its

Google, unfortunately, does not "get" robotics. They are great at big ML training infra, but they need better robotics fundamentals that involve the real world.

Wow this has a lot of great distillation in it. I am always impressed with CMU output.

I never tire of this. Tim is a wonderful no nonsense person. I love these posts and I love that it stays up to date.

This is such a weird post. It feels like a advertisement and a humblebrag more than an attempt to impart any insightful commentary on life or tech.

I love this push to provide Arenas! I am also a big fan of the human rating style of evaluation [0] I think they are complementary approaches. [0] https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1kK6xasHiav9nhiRUJjP...

I have been working in this space for quite a while and while I think the beginning of pytorch lightning meant well, it seems modern use-cases have outgrown it. These days, when I see content from Lightning AI, I prepare for a contrived app

I'm looking for something like OP's description. If you see this, I would really appreciate a couple pointers on where to look! tornadosoup+hn@gmail.com
