Reminder that in 2014, Reddit planned on giving away 10% of its stock to dedicated power users and moderators[1], before Ellen Pao (briefly) and then Steve rejoined as CEO. 1. https://techcrunch.com/2014/09/30&#x2F

It's remarkable that a San Francisco tech company with 2,000+ employees can't seem to produce an app that's half as good as Apollo, an app developed by one guy in Canada.

Plug-ins are a bit different because someone needed to host a backend for it. Most GPTs are fully hosted by OpenAI.

That's why it's so special to see a total solar eclipse. At totality, you can look at the sun with naked eyes and it's magnificent.

It seems like the article is blaming China for falling iPhone sales, but it looks like Chinese consumers just aren't buying as many iPhones because Huawei makes a competitive phone at a better price point.

As a (former) Reddit power user and moderator, I was among the first invited to participate, but passed. There was a time that Reddit actually planned to give away 10% of its stock to power users[1]. As a power user back then (in 2014), I w

One has to wonder how valuable that data will be going forward as many power users have left the site and the posts/comments are filling up with more AI-generated nonsense.

It was a huge mistake to monetize GPTs. I and many other AI enthusiasts would have probably developed plenty of useful GPTs for free. But now I would never bother because nobody will see my projects under all the SEO spam and fake ratings.

I'm hoping/expecting a big improvement in long-context understanding. Currently GPT-4 has a "128K Context Window" but it does a very poor job at actually using all the information in that window. Imagine you could load u

But it may be entirely possible that there's some form of intelligence that can't be replicated by digital computers. Humans are very analog after all.

There's no tech today that can pass a zoom call turing test, not even close when you account for the live aspect. There are plenty of things on a zoom call that LLMs currently can't do like "Hey can you whistle your favorite

They added an account switcher on Desktop but I haven't been able to find that feature on mobile. Still not as smooth as Slack's though.

Whatever your thoughts on crypto, it seems short-sighted not to include some discussion of it in a "Future of the Monetary System" paper. You have countries like El Salvador moving to a Bitcoin standard, BlackRock's CEO sayin

I use Slack for work and like it well enough, but I can't really think of a single thing that Slack does better than Discord. From an admin/moderator perspective, the level of control over user permissions and organization of chan

It certainly seems like a reaction to Mint-like spending tracker apps which collect and sell data and purchase history from these platforms. The harder they make it to get your data out, the more they can keep that valuable data as a compet

Similar example, Amazon disabled the ability to download your order history, leading to angry customers complaining[1] that they now have to click through item-by-item to get all of their orders for taxes or spend tracking. There are indepe

Perhaps there's some combinatorics where every time an ad or post is displayed to the user, it runs through some hundreds/thousands of candidates and computes their relevance.

For anyone looking to spend less time on social media, I suggest using Instagram exclusively on desktop, because it's the same content but you can block ads and the interface isn't as addictive.

For the record I sync my files using a method similar to that user, rather than using Dropbox. I imagine plenty of HN users do the same. I'm making this recommendation to other hackers on here who don't mind getting their hands di

I would love to train a model, but no, it's just common errors that I've encountered. It can also fix it in context. For example if you're talking about the AI 'Groq' but the transcription always says 'grok&#x2
