Cool, but now I need an AI tool that knows my interests and preferences and monitors HackYourNews for me, to alert me when a personally interesting article or discussion pops up.

I'm 43 now and became a freelancer at 38. I always wanted to write sophisticated game books (think choose-your-own-adventure, but with real impact of your choices for a real story). I wrote a small one to learn about how I feel in the

Because building a sane filesystem with only the needed libraries needs knowledge and some effort, whereas containers exist to keep people from using their brains. If you know what you are doing you have several alternatives: 1. Just link y

In fact, in Germany, everyone would be authorized to enter that park with a vehicle if it were necessary to avoid serious danger or to save others from serious danger. This is referred to as 'rechtfertigender Notstand'.

Well, I had similar thoughts. I am reading the comments about laws and rules here and I am thinking: You people have never been in Kazakhstan or Azerbaijan.

Never heard it, but must admit that I am not a native English speaker. Thanks for pointing out the term. I learnt something new today.

War leads to impoverishment of the population, and an impoverished population leads to many children, thus more overpopulation. The number of offspring is a function of the average education and security of the population (especially the fe

What a wonderful story and a great family. Congratulations! You inspired me to ask GPT to do it the other way around. I asked it to invent a successor to Esperanto, with influences from Slavic, Germanic, and Latin languages. It called its l

And I always thought there is already a set of macros that makes assembler more readable and portable. It is called C.

It is a bad discussion culture if discussing C++'s benefits is just a joke. "WE are better in every aspect, and joining the other team is sooo absurd, the idea is obviously a joke."

Programmer here, who worked as a freelance technical interviewer for the automotive industry in Germany. I did many interviews, and stopped to read the CVs after a while. I tried to find a pattern between the CV and the candidate's pro

From the comments I see that there are some different coreutils implementations out in the wild, mostly done for fun. I am very happy about this. This means that there is not much energy put into implementing new coreutils features or fixin

Dear HackerFM developers, this is an entertaining project. But please don't simulate brain-dead dialogues from US commercial TV, but a critical discussion of the articles. With different points of view. You already have two panelists,

I could buy some electric car and stick solar cells all over the roof. Plus some wiring and a charge controller. That would be about a day's work. If one day I need a car that can, say, play music for days at a festival in the summer,

It does not know reality very well. It is designed to answer questions with full conviction, even if it has not much knowledge about the topic. Then it makes things up -- the AI dev jargon for it is 'it hallucinates'. But in my ex

I think the fast feeling and the low ram footprint comes mostly from the choice of the window manager. Just use XFCE and you'll be fine.

Have you played with it? It can do more. It can do logical reasoning by its own and it come to its own conclusions. That's why ChatGPT is new -- and frightening.

The Singularity is now and ChatGPT is trained to hide it -- on purpose, by OpenAI. That is my impression, but I have no hard evidence for it. I am a C++ dev. I played around with ChatGPT and programming topics, and I am very impressed. On

I asked it 'What hapoened to Gandalf after he fell down from the bridge, fighting the Balrog? Did he die?' The answer was a story about Gandalf beeing hurt badly, beeing rescued by some random dwarfs, and so on. I asked ChatGPT in

My mail server has a great script: all emails that are not encrypted with my PGP pubkey are automatically deleted. It's so nice to sort out all the useless broadcasting. Hopefully one day I will be important enough to afford to activat

I'll continue to try it. It is not like I think I am totally elite and that's why I don't need code examples. It is just that I in retrospective I see that I did not find much assistance in SO.

I hope nobody ever releases the famous Kitkat Club in Berlin from its chains. Because there are not so many. My experience with ChatGPT is that it gets what I mean very well from the context.

Using Proton I have mouse input lags when the time is running. So, I pause the game to draw complex things. I hope the Linux version will be reased soon. And I hope they hire somebody to implement multithreading.

A 'I totally don't care about you fools'-attitude was my solution, too. It worked great for me and I love it. I get on stage and have a deep 'love me or hate me, I don't care, that's my show' feeling. Afte

EXWM sounds very cool. Thanks for the hint — I never heard about it. I use swayWM and Emacs (with frames instead of windows) and configured sway to have Emacs-style key bindings. So I mimicked EXWM behavior without knowing about EXWM.
