Sell a million dollars + cost to you worth of stuff. Oh wait only sales matters and everything else just exists to support that? I kind of have to rethink things now.

Network affects come from people building on extra stuff. There's no special sauce with these models, as long as you have an inference endpoint you can recreate anything yourself with any of the models. As to the nailgun thing, that&#x

I think there certainly will, it will just mean that only people who can function independently of the AI will have access to them a few years before everyone else.

It's all text and it's all your text. There's zero network effect.

Eh. The embeddings themselves could act like hidden layer activations and encode some useful information.

Linux is very very different from POSIX. I've had to target actual POSIX and it's missing half the stuff you'd expect. It's really a minimum viable OS API. Linux has new things like Uring and weird things like it's

I can't imagine using something like this and not self hosting. Moving around in your editor costs money? That would completely crush my velocity.

I really hate the thinking. I do my best to disable it but don't always remember. So often it just gets into a loop second guessing itself until it hits the token limit. It's rare it figures anything out while it's thinking t

If this weren't hackernews I'd call you a bad name for wasting my time like that. Until and unless I can just give you my ssh key I won't touch this with a ten foot pole. https://www.yubico.com/resources/

You could buy assets. Be careful though, hyperinflation is pretty weird and a lot of stuff (real estate counterintuitively for example) performs pretty poorly in it. Basically you get the opposing price changes but also the same reaction to

I think you're asking if it adds it back, it got removed years ago and that's part of why the job market blew up.

I'm guessing the custom kernel is because manufacturers don't want the GPL giving customers an escape hatch from their value add? I really can't imagine any other reason you couldn't just use Linux.

It didn't cut nearly as much as it needed to or most of us hoped.

Oh yeah fuck off with that. I was wondering why I couldn't just use a client cert (or better yet my ssh keys) and figured it would be something like that. It turns out I was right to invest zero time or energy figuring it out.

Wait so are people just going to lose their passwords? That seems like terrible PR for a company that want to shift to services. If you rug people just for marketing reasons like that why should anyone trust you with important business proc

People really don't understand so many of the tools they have access too. Sometimes I think this push to get everyone online and using computers was a horrible mistake.

This has been going on even since early social media. I think most of the users actually prefer it.

It's not vengeance. Public institutions get funded by the public as long as the public feels they benefit. Many of these institutions went on a massive PR campaign demonizing the majority demographic. Regardless of whether it's ac

Interviewing really is a distinct skill from contributing and the more people crank it the more it seems to test for interview ability.

That's so creepy. The machine shouldn't care.

It works ok in the short term. Note that most democracies (especially the current best performing ones) are extremely young despite the idea being ancient. You see this on smaller scales as well. Most of people's complaints about &quot

Mexico has been cheaper for a while now. My understanding is that shipping from China was subsidized somehow and that's a big part of why it's still cheaper overall.

Publishing docs and example project and letting them get scraped into LLMs already accomplishes this pretty effectively.

Crazy so many people jump to follow political ideas from Brazil given its track record with inequality.

Sortition would help a little but at the end of the day this is why democracy just doesn't work in practice.
