Yes but you can’t watch Netflix on a Moleskin. If all you’re doing is writing then it’s not worth it, but for me the iPad is a fantastic piece of kit that can consume media, create media, and of all types, writing to fully mastered music al

And throughout those two decades they also canned a ton of projects, including maybe some good ones. I’d say they are batting .250 like everyone else.

- AI works 24 hours a day - AI isn't bound by need for rest, vacations, sick days, or labor laws - AI doesn't bounce from company to company, taking your business knowledge with it (actually this isn't technically true based

This is exactly why unions are needed. To negotiate for extra benefits and share of the effort for their labor.

I'd like to see some software that can be used to connect and hack them (which has been already proven possible), erase any data, then fill their memory with tons and tons of out of place images. Take real traffic images, flip them in

I have to say this is one of my favorite things about local Qwen and Qwen code, it seems a heck of a lot faster that Claude and feels better to work with. Problem is it is nowhere near as smart, so what speed I get in conversation gets kill

Its pretty easy with a system like Readwise. Yes, that's ANOTHER system, but its one system to quickly just add articles like these to an inbox and read them another time, in plain text. Of course, it doesn't work 100% and certain

Remember, Open Weight doesn't necc. mean local. They are probably running on a larger version online, closer to Claude specs. (lol and probably distilled from Claude)

This is how I feel about AI coding in general. I see business users getting excited about building 60% of an application themselves - but have zero clue that the remaining 40% will take 5x as long, and oh, by the way, you now have to mainta

I didn’t take it that way at all. I took it as “I was blinded from the actual solution because my vision was artificially narrow due to my past experiences with this person.” They didn’t ask for help, their partner intervened for them with

Probably because it’s not a “US league?” I might consider F1 in that case as it has gained in popularity a lot, and technically it’s owned by a U.S. company, but I’d never think of it as a U.S. league.

It looks like it’s a HN-like for stocks / market opinions.

Claude can use use tools to do that, and some different code indexer MCPs work, but that depends on the LLM doing the coding to make the right searches to find the code. If you are in a project where your helper functions or shared libs are

Once AI is fully writing software autonomously and humans don’t need to see that code anymore, then why not just have AI write iteratively more efficient assembly? (Meaning make the software work then turn it over to an optimization agent t

I keep seeing this argument pop up about “should Obama be prosecuted” like it’s some sort of “gotcha liberal!” And as a liberal I think “hell YES he should be prosecuted!” The government shouldn’t just go around killing citizens without due

I worked with a Navy Vet in the 1990s that would play Harpoon and reported that it was pretty much just like sitting in the sub looking at his displays. I don’t know how true that was, but I remember them marketing it as something that the

I think the counter point to that is that we have think tanks and political organizations who have rich donors with which to hire high power law firms, who find the regulation they want to axe, and then search the country for a case with st

And imagine how our allies feel. If you can’t count on the U.S. for more than about 3 years at a time, then you quickly move away from them and insure you aren’t so tied to them that a foreign election suddenly makes you vulnerable. Which t

IS it cheaper? Better, maybe, depending on the restaurant. But I can’t see how it’s cheaper when you have to hire and insure drivers, manage shifts, deal with delivery areas, fuel costs, more accounting, etc etc. Also I live in a pretty goo

I find it strange that they would write "The hollowing out of US manufacturing has led to social and political division and left us in a precarious place geopolitically." And then suggest the answer to that is robotics and ML, whi
