Truly, this is one of the greatest losses of the UK leaving. For both parties. Advising EU startups on where to incorporate that isn’t London could be so much simpler.

Yeah, but most of the the old (2000s in particular) mid-range hifi units all had decent-enough DAC's to do 44.1/16bit. And they're cheap now. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/317751858636 e.g. £65 doesn't

Love it. Not often you get music threads like this on HN!

Yes. But shhhhh about cds, don’t want people to realise… Also the price of decent (Sony hifi grade, not ES) CD players used is great too.

Trying to implement their gRPC api from their specs and protobufs for Live is an exercise in immense frustration and futility. I wanted to call it from Elixir, even with our strong AI I wasted days then gave up.

The way the models behave in Vertex AI Studio vs the API is unforgivable. Totally different.

If you’ve spent any time with the vertex LLM apis you wouldn’t be so enthusiastic about using Google’s platform (I say this as someone who prefers GCP to aws for compute and networking).

Then you actually use it! I dare someone to try and get Gemini live vertex app working.

Yeah moving from python to node for concurrency is insane.

Yes. What they've shown me is that I don't like code. Hate it, actually. But I like building things, and can still read and reason about problems and code. So I chose the best stack for what we're doing, but I don't get

I've got OCD and I've done CBT, ERP etc. As others have alluded to, you need to realise the work is never done. Recently I've found it more active, but this time - having recently read The Maps we Carry by Rose Cartwright, wh

Yes. Just look at London - where it’s private hire, not taxi, but still very regulated.

100%. It's made me like dev again because my head can be used for things other than remembering arcania - this may be a curse of using languages like Ruby and Elixir which mostly don't have great tooling. I enjoyed the article, fw

Dots call functions on objects, pipe passes arguments to functions. Totally missing the point.

This is great. When it first came out I was going through Strang’s linalg course and got it to do “problem mode” where it would talk me through a problem step by step, waiting for me respond. A more thought through product version of that i
