He retired the format a few years ago. Now he just does game shows and random projects with his friends, which...fair enough, that's what I'd do with a pile of passive YouTube income.

No idea what Mr. Escher would think of me, but I have his reflected self-portrait etched permanently on my forearm, behind which his metamorphosis snakes all the way up to my shoulder. I got my tattoos in my early 20s, as most probably do.

Very true, the strategy just preys on a long-established logical fallacy, for as long as humans have been vulnerable to an appeal to authority, we will continue to fall for attempts at "research washing". I know I am subconsciousl

What do you suppose the proportion is of computers actively running Windows in the world right now, versus those running some kind of *nix/BSD-based OS? This includes everything a person or machine could reasonably interface with, and

I suppose the deeper question I'd have would be, how would its no-cost distribution prevent better alternatives from being developed/promoted/adopted along the way? I guess I don't follow your line of logic. To be fair,

I see your point, but bear with me here--it kind of is. I suppose if one wanted to be pedantically literal, then you are indeed correct. In every other meaningful consideration, the parent comment is. Maybe not Bash specifically, but #!&#x2

In this analogy, do you have to design, construct, and learn from first principles to operate literally every other tool you'd like to use in addition to the saw?

Right, but abstract costs are still costs to someone , so how far does that go before mass adoption turns into a mass liability for whomever is ultimately on the hook? It seems like there is this extremely risky wager that everyone is play

It’s news to me that Starship flying is doable.

How fast does something need to be traveling before you’d consider it to be fast? It probably weighs as much as a city and it is traveling tens of times faster than a high-velocity bullet.

Sort of defeats the purpose of visualizing $1M. I'd call this art project flawed in its execution, at best.

Someone else had mentioned these were retired dollar bills (aka, otherwise headed to the incinerator) but I don't know the provenance of this information.

If these comments are “caustic” I’d recommend steering well clear of…the rest of the internet. These comments, from my perspective, represent a very pragmatic position from people who encounter scam bait daily in these same forums.

Yeah, I chose ZeroTier over Tailscale early on. Zero regrets, it’s nearly perfect for my use-case (remote monitoring and management of highly diverse systems and environments).

Well these days it seems who uses which bathrooms and/or how enthusiastically natural born citizens get to openly abuse everyone else are both issues approaching armed conflict, so that sounds downright utopian.

Thanks for sharing. You certainly aren't alone in your sentiments. I am seeing similar trends in arXiv submissions, as it seems it has become something of a means to inflate the value of one's own product(s) with a veneer of acade

I'll just be unambiguous about this: > Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. https://news.ycombina

Has it been used in IBM's inference stack, or used with IBM's inference stack? In other words, has this been merged into IBM's own repositories, or has someone just tested it using them?

I considered that, but then why would anyone obfuscate this really very reasonable scenario by choosing another ostensibly pseudonymous username?

It seems odd to me that so many of these projects are being launched by people who have only just discovered and/or joined HN. I'm worried this is just becoming LinkedIn for AI opportunists.
