Great comment. Very true.

I think this could work really well for infrastructure/ops style work where the LLM will not be able to grasp the full context of say the network from just a few files that you have open. But as others are saying this is just basic doc

The only reason I am still using gmail is due to choice paralysis. I do not know which email service to choose and pay for. I do not like Proton. Is Fastmail the way to go? There is also the German one posteo. Should I just use Apple's

It's his strategy going forward. He isn't saying he completed his 40s at the age of 41. You would prefer he share his strategy for 40s at 50? Seems pedantic.

This crosses such a rare line of being something that both children and adults would love to have around to play with. Even though I know you didn’t build it to be a product.

This comment is epically pretentious, but I agree that kids shouldn’t be playing online games designed as skinner boxes to increase playtime and financial spend. Makes kids miss out because everyone is playing them? Eh, too bad. They gotta

This is such an HN response. Oh, no problem, I'll just avoid the internet for all of my important things!

Great comment. I agree.

Enjoyed this. Lots of large homelabs like this are built in order to stream video or local llm models and that usually leaves me feeling a bit left out because I have been building my own, but have no interest in either of those things. Som

Cloud by day, home lab by night.

Bold claim! If my company was to leave the cloud we would easily 5-10x our costs and need to go on a hiring spree. Curious what you mean.

When the present-day is compared to the promises and hopes for big tech as the companies were starting, the word seems appropriate. We ain’t in Sunday school! Degradation doesn’t capture that many of the changes for the worst are willful an

I feel that there is a difference between being in the public sphere of the community one exists in, and being in a public sphere that is global and free of any context. Lots of questions pop up when I try to follow that line of thought.

good question...

I think this argument is logically flawed. When you say public means not private you are glossing over the fact that public never before meant "available via digital media to the world." Instead it mean a public which had a locali

This made me chuckle remembering the time a friend photographed a dog in a bicycle in Berlin and was yelled at by the owner until the photo was deleted. Photographing a pet crossed a big red privacy line. Seems absurd, but I think sensitivi

I don't know why I'm surprised, but this blog does link to DHH actually complaining about the present-day ethnic makeup of London ("demographic nightmare") and contrasting it with Copenhagen. London is apparently too bro

I’m not sure I follow, though I like the tone. What has data modeling been replaced by?

I get what you mean, but Datenschutz and the bizarre processes built to appease it make an appearance almost every day here.

Ah, so my email address is highly private info. But all of my communications are not. Great.

What does this mean for `Datenschutz` in Germany? I can't imagine the courts would let this stand.

Hm ok but location data etc still goes to them? What about the device fingerprint? I’m just wondering what the selling point for using Graphene with Google is. Very Graphene curious.

I believe that if allowed in, they would be competitive and that is why they are not allowed. And because of security claims.

Sincere question: what is the point of using this OS for privacy and then using Google services? The intro runs though how it’s very easy to do this. Maybe I’m missing something.

The German car companies are struggling intensely against Chinese competition, everywhere outside of the US, and especially in China. The Chinese electric cars sell for 3 times less than the German ones in EU. The Chinese also invested heav
