Sadly it often takes a devastating life event to make us rethink our position and priorities in life. We work to live, not live to work, and don't you let any overachieving founder mode startup bro sell you otherwise. Sorry for the aut

Nokia had a device on the market, the 770, before iPhone 1 release, and launched a successor, the 800 around the same time. However, for internal political reasons the devices didn’t have a GSM chip. The 800 was comparable to the iPhone: th

A strange straw man to pick a fight with, since the text agrees with you: > Avoid cryptography, if possible, as you should write all the code yourself and doing your own cryptography is a well known mistake.

Pythagora pivoted to full app development using AI. There's an open source (FSL-MIT) licensed core[0] and a VSCode extension[0]. There's an overview video of just-released v1 (early access), more info at https://www.pyt

Actually, the sources we had (everything scraped from the internet) turns out to be pretty bad. Imagine not going to school and instead learning everything from random blog posts or reddit comments. You could do it if you read a lot, but

Gary takes credible facts there (modest gains, ai is not replacement for clear thinking), altough attacking the "10x" claim is a cheap shot because the claim was always nebulous. However, in light of Gary's other AI related w

Parent's post explicitly listed FSL as a possible solution. We also recently adopted it in our startup. (Edit to add: I think his beef with FSL is just that it's not OSS. I like the "fair" term as sort of in-between comm

Nice analysis! I agree that there shouldn't be a stigma against licenses that aren't FOSS. There's no shame producing software that's not open source, and if you're open about it (ie not calling it FOSS if it isn&

I'm tired of people soured on open source. FFS if you don't like it, just don't do it. You don't owe anyone anything. If you want to get paid, find a business model that works for you. Open source is not a business model

Yeah the low effort / gratuitous ones (either AI or stock) are jarring. I sometimes put up the hero image on my blog posts if I feel it makes sense, for example: https://blog.senko.net/learn-ai (stock photo, ai-generat

This is mixing up two meanings of "art". Mona Lisa doesn't need to be 10000x cheaper. Random illustration on a random blog post sure could. Art as an evocative expression of the artist shouldn't be cheapened. But those f

What's funny to me is how many people protest AI as a means to generate incorrect, misleading or fake information, as if they haven't used internet in the past 10-15 years. The internet is choke full of incorrect, fake, or mislead

Good mental model, but I feel its intended audience is people who have their basic needs met. You need at least X calories a day (ideally, healthy ones), you need a roof over your head, etc. Keeping that context in mind, recognizing that ma

Despite the unfortunate name collision (there's only so many puns people can do, I guess), it's a wonderful little wrapper for Ollama with a simple, smooth UI consistent with the rest of GNOME experience.

Yeah I submitted what turned out to be a dupe but I could never find the original, probably was buried at the time. Then a few hours later it miraculously (re?)appeared. AIUI exact dupes just get counted as upvotes, which hasn’t happened in

How does leased buildings being empty or full in any way affect the financial burden on the lessees (companies mandating RTO)? If anything, those companies could sublet and/or negotiate the cost, lowering the downside, instead of doing
