You don't feel the hydraulic feedback in the brake pedal (just the ABS buzzing), and gas pedals in many modern EFI vehicles feel more like foot-operated potentiometers than throttle linkages.

Bedrock erroring out that `anthropic.claude-3-sonnet-20240229-v1:0` isn't a valid model identifier (the published identifier for Sonnet). That's in us-east-1, so hopefully it's just a rollout-related timing issue.

"Beat Saber" can be quite the workout, too. Ditto "Rock Band" if you have a proper e-drum kit.

Glad more people are using `font-display: optional` on their sites. The simplest, most pragmatic solution, and much more user-friendly. I can understand why some designers don't want to do it, but it is "the right thing to do&quot

"I didn’t expect to meet another YC founder here." Didn't expect to read that line, heh. Props to Aella, and great work on the wrap up. Sorry to miss out on the paid part of the post (not my bag) but truly: that was a refresh

Amazing work. The color usage alone is a great way to show clients the effects of technical debt from multiple vendors working on their sites.

The audio (in both videos) sounds like it was ring modulated. And later, cut out entirely. Is that an attempt to stretch audio that was sampled periodically from another system, or an artifact of the GoPro's own audio circuitry?

4 here as well. I get similar results when using the API directly, though without a "system" role message. LLMs are, naturally, non-deterministic. Reducing the temperature in your guardrail calls can reduce that a bit, but the les

That gatekeeper can be bypassed with a method similar to Simon's [0]. Granted, it requires foreknowledge of the specifications of the JSON output, but I've found that many such gatekeepers can be tricked by embedding a JSON object

There are many instances of "please provide your best estimate" on the forms, which provides a lot of reasonable doubt for any attempt to prosecute fraud. Besides, the rest of the data required on the forms is almost certainly r

Not a wild thought. The China, Russia, and the US (if not the other nuclear powers) have made known their plans to use a nuclear electromagnetic pulse as the first phase of any attack. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuc

If we had done enough to mitigate EMPs, the nuclear powers of the world wouldn't have space-based nuclear EMPs as the first step of their attack plan. We still do, and so does Russia. Geomagnetically-induced current is different from t

So just to clarify, you've added an integration layer on top of MQTT so that MCUs can publish to a topic (for external actions) and subscribe to a topic (for MCU-driven actions)? 1. Do you have an "unexpected exit" strategy t

I feel this is a false equivalence. Nukes aren’t even close to being commodities, cannot be targeted at a class of people (or a single person), and have a minutely small number of users. (Don’t argue semantics with “class of people” when yo
