I don't know if eliminating ambiguity is even possible, much less a key feature of the language. There's even prominent ambiguity on this page: > Lojban means different things to different people

I just want a WebKit-based browser where everything can be controlled by a prominent LLM prompt box. No more clicking through constantly changing menus or trying to remember rarely-used vim shortcuts, just tell it what you want to do. Bonus

Think of it like a tiny pinch of a very spicy pepper in a big pot of soup. Even a little bit can have a big effect! The reason CO2 is like very spicy pepper is that it is very good at absorbing infrared radiation from the sun, and then re-e

It generally seems like a bad idea to give a plugin an authentication token if it's in a shared environment with an untrusted plugin. Maybe obvious to a typical HN reader, but probably something OpenAI should mitigate or warn about bef

There is some essential context missing from this screenshot to understand what is going on and if it's significant or not. Where is ChatGPT getting the information about which email account to hack? That has to be provided either to t

iOS dictation always knows exactly what I say and I get the immediate feedback of seeing the text written as I am speaking. With Whisper in the ChatGPT app I can't see anything I say, until after I finish speaking. So I'm really n

Unfortunately, the internet is getting more and more balkanized. What people see in one country is becoming completely different from what people see in another country, and often things are completely inaccessible between countries. Not to

It's only a traveler's dream if you have a southeast Asian bank account. And it's far less convenient for consumers than Visa/Mastercard and NFC. Anywhere in North America or Europe, I can pay my waving my Garmin watch,

I'm referring to the UX, not the UI. I have Google Fi that I used to use as a backup hotspot while traveling. But then they decided I travel too much and arbitrarily cut off my data one day, so I started buying a global eSIM from Airal

Just from a UX perspective, the quality of Google products seems to have tanked in recent years. Android, Sheets and Maps seem like they're still best-in-class. Maybe Gmail is still ok too (I don't know, I don't use it). But

Hiding part of the LLMs output from the user doesn't make what it's doing fundamentally different than what it does now. Also, anecdotally, I can totally reason about things non-verbally in my mind and then verbally express a conc
