I'd definitely do the former. I don't even think this is specific to ChatGPT or Claude's apps. There seems to be something about how intents get triggered by Shortcuts on iOS that feels flaky to me. Whenever some app suggests

I had the same experience until I upgraded my Echo (we have a few, but the one in the kitchen gets 99% of the voice commands). Just looked it up in my order history: I went from an "Echo Show 5 (1st Gen, 2019 release)" to a "

The experience of having to tell Siri to "Ask ChatGPT <about something>" really sucks, though. It doesn't consistently do it, the handoff frequently just stalls out and you never get a response, the transcription that g

Any of the LLM-based ones should pull this* off - so that's to say.. none of the popular commercially available ones, yet? Alexa+ does, but I don't use it for anything except kitchen timers and home automation triggers, so I can&#

Agreed, and I've been waiting for it to do all of those things reliably && consistently since work gave me an iPhone 4S in 2011. I'm on the iPhone 16 now.

Is that why the pie chart colors don't match the colors in the legend at all..?

They've been encoded twice for extra protection.

It's all vector graphics?

I concede. (Haha, ok, let's call a truce here before we break HN! Appreciate the conversation.)

by mh- 6mo ago
Okay, fine: "conservative with cash" or even "tight with spending"? (I'm not sure how much deeper HN threads can nest.)
162.
by mh- 6mo ago
If we can agree that "strapped for cash" also includes "not stupid with cash", I think we're on the same page here. :) (For all I know they are strapped for cash, to be clear; I just don't think the quote say

You realize we're talking about a product that is currently free, right? Neither of us have any insight into the margins of their paid offering. All this means is: we have a free offering that we can't figure out another way to m

I haven't said the same thing as the parent commenter: > So, is this OpenAI announcing they're strapped for cash? It by no means conveys that. It means they haven't figured out another way to monetize something they want

by mh- 6mo ago
That's not how I read that sentence at all. Maybe I've just been speaking VC for too long. What he meant was: "I'm going to get everybody in the world access to great services. Doing so means monetizing somehow. Ads will

I appreciate that you're staying inside with that mentality. Like Mitchell, GitHub was once a dream job for me, and it just never lined up pre-acquisition. I shared many of Mitchell's habits too, about GitHub being my reading mate

The position of "Degrades discussion" in that sentence implies that the accuracy of the claim has no bearing on that particular impact.

I really think that the HN guidelines need updating, so that we're directed to consider those comments the same way we do accusations of astroturfing: > Please don't post insinuations about astroturfing, shilling, brigading, f

Definitely. I don't use them for my personal domains, of course. But as others have pointed out, there's basically zero margin on simple domain sales. So if you want proper support, you need to go to someone who bundles it with ot

Agreed, and if you don't want to pay for MarkMonitor, at least use your enterprise AWS account, where you have paid support.

See other sibling comments to yours, but you basically have named support contacts who would have been the human-in-the-loop ensuring that a situation like OP's can't happen. I haven't spoken to them in like a decade, but the

Top tier is still MarkMonitor. Last I spoke with them, they had a five-figure minimum spend, but the per-domain costs are competitive. That cost buys you proper named support contacts, etc. If you look up the whois for microsoft.com or yaho

Trademarks can't magically prevent someone from doing something wrong. That doesn't make them useless. (No idea how this relates to Facebook, so responding to your comment generically.)

Wow, thanks for sharing this. Like the parent commenter, I have an increasing number of cheap devices like this. I wonder if anyone sells an "enclosed" version of this product. This won't survive 5 minutes in my house, haha.

Putting commentary about AI media aside: How many iterations (arrangements and recordings) do you think a typical Billboard pop song goes through before it's ready for a final mix and mastering? Go find a YouTube of someone doing this

If I were a PM at Google trying to connect those two products, the far more obvious approach is the end of the creation pipeline having an "Upload to YouTube Music" button.

I feel like I make this comment a lot, but: how do you know ? You recognize obvious slop as slop. But this is a survivor bias-like phenomenon. You have no idea what goes unnoticed. If you're talking about stuff posted to communities t

I think this wasn't done earlier because the Suno (etc.) models couldn't output stems. They could attempt messy stem splitting like all of the other tools have done for a few years now, but those aren't really usable in a pro

I think you've got a great app idea on your hands. By the time I finish writing this comment - yours is 10 minutes old - someone will have vibe coded one, probably. Also feels like an easy feature for someone like Suno to add, to help

I believe they were drawing a parallel to oil commoditization, but that's as far as I got.
