   Just to talk about a different direction here for a second: Something that I find to be a frustrating side effect of malware issues like this is that it seems to result in well-intentioned security teams locking down the data in apps. The j

   I really hope that Japanese developers take advantage of this situation to show off at least some of the creativity that's possible when we're not quite as limited by Apple's restrictions. I don't doubt that from a &#x27

   I found the same with Max xhigh. To the point that I switched back to just 5.1 High from 5.1 Codex Max. Maybe I should’ve tried Max high first.

   Based on other HN rules thus far, I tend to think that this just results in more comments pointing out that you're violating a rule. In many threads, those comments can be just as annoying and distracting as the ones being replied to.

   This reminds me of Pebble Core. Does anyone but me remember that? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/getpebble/pebble-2-time... It was one of the devices I was most excited about way back when, and I'd stil

    Odd. I've had the Z Fold 5 and now 7 and the last few years' worth of Samsung firmware has been excellent for me. Perhaps they build 'for' their flagships and let devices that perhaps have lower tier chipsets run slowly?

    Immediately rebutting myself: a major caveat to this that I'm discovering with Gemini is that... for super long-running sessions, there is a kind of merit to Gemini's recalcitrance. When it's running for a while, Gemini'

    Yeah, Gemini 2.x and 3 in gemini-cli has the tendency to 'go the opposite direction' and it feels - to me - like an incredibly strong demonstration of why 'sycophancy' in LLMs is so valuable (at least so long as they&#x2

    This post is a little bizarre to me because it cherry picks some of the worst pairings of problem and LLM without calling out that it did so. At pretty much every turn the author picks one of the worst possible models for the problem that t

    Something that might help - in this specific instance - is trying to contrast with others. That is: if you show this photo to people that you know and you compare and contrast _how detailedly_ you can imagine the apples, that can help. For
