I don't have time to pull up specifics, but in general openai open sources and posts about what they're doing. Deepmind on the other hand doesn't open source stuff (I think it was alphafold that they promised to open source a

Just wanted to point out: She was saying that it was ironic that at a place like OpenAI, she doesn't get unfiltered access to their 2nd/3rd floors/eat lunch with them. I understand that its a bit ironic, but I think the repor

The original piece itself was flawed. Like many if not most tech companies, reporters or other strangers don’t get unfiltered access to the company. There’s reasons why (unpublished work that may be reported in a bad light). OpenAI has made

In an age where world wars could potentially start via Twitter and getting verified is the stamp of approval of being a political/celebrity/public figure, this is pretty wild.

Starsky was definitely hiring. They posted on every "Who's Hiring" on HN for a considerable amount of time. Unsure if it was ever 54, but they definitely were aggressive in hiring (job postings also kind of reflected that).

I actually loved what they were (and still are doing).The only thing that concerns me about them is this: 1. Ousted one of their CEOs the day they got funding (something dirty like this) 2. Making their own car (which I guess isn't too

Wow... that was pretty unexpected. But to be honest they haven't done anything too notable within the last year (Plus.ai is pretty much the biggest thing I can think of right now and maybe Ike in the trucking space). Really interesting

This is huge for Raspberry Pi’s. Once ARM is more standardized, more docker Conro arts and binaries will be available in arm as well.

A bit unrelated to this post, but Time Machine really sucks. How can I get all the photos I’ve ever had on my laptop without going through each revision? I wish TM worked like rsync and some added metadata files for functionality. I’m liter

I think it comes down to who publishes it. If someone posts it on their blog, then it’s technically them writing it. Pretty sure ai and ghost writers fall into the same legal situation.

After reading this, I think if everyone setup a Tor node just for TV, that’s be great (harder to identify who is watching what).

Picture in Picture is great for lectures or follow-along tutorials and I'm glad people are taking it more seriously (initially was using Youtube on Safari purely because of this feature, but later on Chrome had it... albeit a bit wonky

Must be why Twitch streamers get swatted? There’s always going to be a way around things, especially on the internet. I do agree anon names will act a nice proxy initially.

This was a pretty heavy piece. Further reinforces Naval’s quote about being rich and anonymous is far better than being poor and famous.

Yeah I kinda understood what you were saying, but as I also surprisingly found out, it seems like they're fast in general regardless of where you're located. I'll try to do more testing soon.

I did some testing a while back from servers globally (I used Postman w/ global monitoring) to test latency. Pretty sure Postman uses some big cloud service (AWS or GCP) so you'd think Lambda would've had an advantage. Intere

I think I’ll try this, but for devs: a simple while True + try/catch + time.sleep(n*2) will do exponential backoff pretty easily.
