   You meant to write "generate $-115 million" I think. I'd start by putting all the money under a mattress which is already doing way better than Humane. Then I'd try to think of something fun to make.

   If any VCs who "invested" some of the $230 million into the dumbest product ever from obvious morons would like to instead invest with me, I'm pretty confident I can do better than a 0.5x return!

   I mean there is no cost for others, though. You don't have a right to not be "exposed". If you think the way we handle laws around photography or whatever should be changed, we have a whole democracy for brokering that. (Or a

   Lots of Linux-related drama on HN lately. Maybe someone should offer free conflict resolution classes for libre software maintainers.

    what? he's making terrible moves. violating the consitution, mainly. illegally hacking and slashing the federal government without any idea what he's doing, what he's cutting, providing any clear or sensible or accurate reaso

    I wanted to use this to do temp voices for a video game project. Not realtime, just creating the audio at build time basically. However, the pricing model is not conducive to that because you cannot pay-per-use, and on top of that none of t

    I could never get the hang of snippets, too much to learn and too inflexible. Copilot for life.

    I'm not suggesting child labor laws are bad , I'm saying automation is good and not sinister. Automation inherently reduces labor, which can inherently lead to someone not needing to work a job that is now automated. That we want

    I think people underestimate how the nature of current generative AI products is simply based on what extremely large corpuses of data are available. Text, photos, video, audio. This is the easy stuff, the first step.

    It's interesting how we can frame "potentially automating tasks" in the most sinister conceivable way. The same argument applies to essentially all technology, like a computer.

    Of course it doesn't have to be huge, I just think the Pebble probably isn't worth resurrecting compared to trying something new and more interesting.

    The Apple Watch is just okay but sells like 25x per year Pebble's entire lifetime sales. I guess people love their Pebbles but this seems like a lot of effort for something most people probably don't want.

    Is there any reason to assume a conspiracy and drama around the bounty here other that just being bored and cynical? Apple has a well known security bounty program https://security.apple.com/bounty/

    This is a free tool (though I wouldn't use it since its from Bytedance). Also you could have an AI powered IDE locally without a subscription.
