Using Venmo or Zelle obviates the reason for using Bitcoin to move money from one country to another, which is that you don't want the transfer to be traced, and you may or may not have access to the banking system where you're go

hm. I don't know why you couldn't be a great father. In the sense you're talking about. I know it would come with the physical baggage (or not, if you adopt?) A friend I love dearly is raising a 3 year old little girl... she

As a guy who was never married, has no kids, works from home, and does all the cooking and cleaning while my girlfriend on her days off sleeps and scrolls reddit endlessly on the couch, I'm fairly tired of being underappreciated as wel

Which is it... Godspeed the decline, or you hope it doesn't? I think it's a tragedy that America elected him twice, and it has already led to chaos among our allies and irreparable harm to the postwar order in which America was th

I'm just saying it's more evidence that Google should be broken up.

Most of the major Bitcoin spikes and leveling-up of the price since 2012 have preceded or corresponded with governments tightening controls, and people using BTC they owned or buying it to evacuate capital to more lightly regulated countrie

As an American trying to retain my sanity in this country, I have to tell myself that such things are just trollish nonsense from the ultimate reality television troll. It is comforting to me that 50% of what he says is bluster and the othe

do you (have to check first)? I say blacklist first and ask questions later. Like consider reinstating them if they write you a reasonably normal human email.

Jesus. What an experience. What percentage of your time did it take moderating this absurd shadow board??!

Elon has bought immunity to that. Streisand's flaw was that she gave a shit. Elon has unlocked the kinda reverse-Streisand that Trump has, where their popularity actually feeds on the effect.

Sadly, the music selection has fallen off a cliff, and the rest is in a sharply downward spiral... in one sense this is because the music industry finally settled on a streaming model that most people are willing to rent, and it's also

Ah. I always thought it came from the LLM booster perspective of trying to prove emergent intelligence. A lot of very clever autocompletes working together can be incredibly dangerous.

Just outta curiosity because I can't find it at a cursory look - what exactly would be the type (coersion?) that would allow v8 to execute arbitrary code? Is this like something in post data to nodejs that terminates early and is able

Well, the implication (and I'm not saying this is right) is that to Google it's only worth $1k to have this brought to their attention by a white hat, versus finding out by exploitation. Which means that they have zero concern fro

What is the motivation behind advocating against people trivializing LLMs? As in, why do you care?

All was fun... sorry (about two decades younger) when I was a junior web designer in the late 90s, keyword designer , not coder, I got approached with a freelance job to build an online store, which I knew nothing about doing. I knew some

What I'm tired of is the top story (or five) on HN every day announcing Spark Opus Fable Grok Gemini v4.1i3-F. Like, who actually cares? Are people excited for the new benchmarks? Is it interesting to read the model cards? And look, pa

Hah. Yes. The one-dimensional up/down mechanism leaves a lot to be desired. Your response could be so wildly engaging that literally everyone on HN has voted on it; so controversial that the masses and the bots are evenly split betwee

I had the displeasure of working for a new crop of the same kind of people for web 2.0. There's something amazing about people who never build anything but come into the world sure that they can tell other people how to do it, and happ

Inference is just tokens transformed through a fixed crystalline structure, no? You already could put that on a chip. There's no particular reason it couldn't be represented as some set of symbolic equations instead of a layered

Is it? I just did a test switch over. For my personal needs I set up a box with OpenClaw back in March, which feels like a million years ago, that's been running Sonnet 4.6 since then. With all the caching it seems like my actual cost

I'm confused about Anthropic's pricing. Can anyone explain why Sonner 5 is $2/MTok in and Sonnet 4.6 is still $3?

I was working at a web shop in San Francisco when the Web 1.0 bubble burst. The period leading up to that was characterized by company execs buying themselves all kinds of expensive new cars and toys, and a kind of hysteria on the part of c

I wrote something a bit like this years ago as an experimental portfolio site... a sort of responsive engine managing flat "cards" with CSS shadow cues for depth. (The responsive aspects are all JS on a loop that tweens everything

Eureka is a weird place. It's got a foggy microclimate that you can actually see as you drive into it. Even for the Northern California / Oregon coast it's especially cool and rainy. As a Portlander I treasure our 3-4 month

I don't think it has to do with sound. Some sounds can disrupt it, of course. I can work well in a noisy cafe as long as I'm not listening to any particular conversation. Although oftentimes, if I'm alone, I talk to myself ou

Honestly, I've been perfectly fine using OpenClaw and Claude 4.6 for the last six months, and am used to its flaws. In general it doesn't screw up anything major, but I also wouldn't ask it to reason about anything more than
