Pretty impressive for fancy autocomplete.

As an American, I hope you can identify strongly as an Australian. Why bother telling yourself you’re something of a European? In any case, I hope countries form ties with Europe. Europe needs be economically stronger than it is. Better for

So now YC is funding companies directly to replace jobs. Who will the flock cameras watch?

I feel like this is a sandboxing and ownership problem, in a sense. If everyone had personal access to AI, then we could say people are personally responsible. And we’d want to arm those people with safeguards to prevent accidental bad beha

This is fantastic news. Matt is an ass and unfit to lead a small HOA, let alone a company and open source project.

What is it about Hacker News that draws only criticism and negativity? Is it even possible to build a community that's optimistic?

This is wasting too much water and energy!

I know in order to conform to HN community rules I'm supposed to be negative and dunk on this, but I have to say, I am so excited to use Astra!

Try Sol. It’s much better at getting to the point. I tend to use 5.6-xhigh or max.

If Anthropic thinks Opus 5 is very good, it is a window into how insular their culture is. I find it far, far behind Sol. It’s downright annoying to use.

I’m on an 14” M5 Pro MacBook Pro with nano texture display. It’s the best computer I have ever owned. Not close.

Heck. Yeah. I'm with you. This is GOOD. Social media is unhealthy. You know what else is unhealthy? Hacker News' constant bashing of every. single. thing. ever.

Rivian’s software is pretty good. Often key fobs don’t work, but generally it is better than most cars except for Tesla. The hardware is another story. My R1S was a hunk of junk. It was the worst experience I’ve ever had with a car and I wi

This is the same site that ran a front page saying if you vote for Trump you are literally a racist. I liked it better when it was just headphone reviews and holiday gift guides to pump their affiliate revenue. XD

Sounds like the start of every journey. With all respect to your thesis, I probably put my chips on Google's research and security teams.

“How does affect Claude’s outputs?” Is poor proofreading a form of watermarking? Clever, I suppose, but they should consider running posts through Sol for clarity.

Garmin Fenix 8. Love it. It’s for trail running, payments in a pinch. Love the industrial design, far more than Apple Watch Ultra or certainly any Android watch. I’m a power user given its narrow focus, but no, I don’t expect it to have my

Anthropic’s second biggest issue is they increasingly rent when others buy. Even if model value compresses, owning your vertical stack protects your margins upstream, and potentially downstream in applications. But the biggest issue is this

So, if an open weights model was found to be very dangerous, what - just too bad? One could, of course, design an open safety protocol, written and performed by people in the executive branch, accountable to an elected official. I love ho

They should switch to announcing when their model is usable. We can scurry in and get some work done real quick!

This is probably great news. Using Fly at different points along the way has been one of the worst experiences I’ve had in terms of their persistent reliability issues and how they go dark on addressing those issues at times. Whatever cultu
