Fuck X, and this place while we're at it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49403658 Cost me $500 (to a good charity, oh well) and guess what, I was fucking right. I have subby-tendancies but some of you put me to s

No, it hasn't. And yeah, man, I hope hackers give a shit about YC and Flock enabling the dismantlement of any semblance of privacy, and normalizing total surveillance culture.

The golden ones (as opposed the green variety that are more common in the US) are significantly tastier (at least, universally shared opinion among everyone I forced to try them) and have basically no fuzz/hair.

Matt, ... just log out and take a break.

There's always the big bad scary word, "decentralization". But of course, even among HNers, there's amazing cognitive dissonance among "decentralization is hard and takes effort" and "omg, of course the ne

the end of that post sure did turn out a disaster and I'm not even sure what I meant. Pretty... awful. I do know how to spell ostracized ? I'm not sure if that's what I meant? Truly a mess.

I say this as someone does NOT disable JS in my main browser (because like, I have a job), but also knows a fair bit about why Firefox inside Tails now restarts in some cases... It's the classic thing. Across every gdmf metric, exclu

I think this is why I'm sort of excited about this, even if some of it's "misguided" according to some. I haven't seen people really care and mobilize since maybe BLM?

These green laser pointers are bright enough to cause eye damage from the reflection off surfaces, for humans and pets.

> There is a small vocal group that is very determined to pull politics into it somehow I'd suggest you go look at DHH's own account, own tweets and then delete this embarrassing comment.

lol I'd say something about X, but man this place fooking loves X and it didn't go well last time. So, "oh nooooo".

1. I don't believe you. Or at best, they're A/Bing you and letting you read a tiny modicum of content before forcing you to login. Actually, I'll donate $250 to a charity of your choice if you show me you on x.com mobile

Yes? It's the fucking GDID. Anyone could've just looked and confirmed it. It's the GDID format; it's not a GUID; I'm not stupid. EDIT: god, shocking, crazy, hard for this site to imagine but, I spent 10 whole second

Maybe this is obvious or overly reductive, but that rings well for me too and sounds so much like early (and still wise) guidance for Wikipedia and maybe the Internet at large.

Fun story, when my ex and I split a few years ago, I wiped all connections of my Microsoft account to the machine I built him. Last week, when I logged into my Microsoft account, I had an extra machine with a funny name. Checking some logs,

Saily is a joke for pricing. I've never seen anyone beat Airalo's pricing. But they sure cornered those YouTubers!

Who here is old enough to know about PetSets, since we're talking this topic and k8s...

This stuff truly makes my head spin. How do these people think humanity came to be, to today? Do they understand we in historically safe times? I thought the pendulum was swinging back on helicopter parents but some adults, some HN adults,

Here I was, thinking it would be a very, very odd workout set to Moby's music.

Thank god the comments here are so apolitical. Would hate to interrogate how this is allowed to continue, alternatives to allowing it to happen, etc.

Rather concerned that there's exactly two comments noticing this. I immediately was like "um, it's an Office 365 form, are people this gullible". EDIT: Fortunately a few more people getting it now. Maybe I'm the din

Very nosily, I'm curious what prominent projects Google hosts OSS but has a meaningfully private internal version.

Started scrolling, immediately closed the page. Something is deeply wrong with a person who chooses to implement this shit on a webpage. Unusable garbage, I'm sorry, literally making me motion sick somehow.

Right, sorry, I'm trying to catch up (in general) here, and am working through assumptions to get my bearings. What you say makes sense, but further adds to my confusion as to why those model names would appear in input sent to Claude

Nice - one don't even have to click the URL to know what POS is involved.

I am also really confused and annoyingly stuck on this. I understand that the model name might appear in prompts for distillation (I guess? "You are RipOffModelv2, learn from these responses from Claude")? I guess the only explana

Wow the timing, I spent a few hours trying to get my head around these three choices last night. Got to roughly similar conclusions. And I still don't know what to do. I have more money than sense. I don't even know (yet) how sill

Yeah, I'll just wait for jj to get more virtualized FS features, and be very, very happy with that.
