Sad! I really enjoyed going to the Kusama exhibit with my (now) wife years ago, and my daughter had a Kusama phase when she was about 5 years old and dressed up like her with a hot pink wig and polka dot outbit.

It would be very cool to have an Obsidian viewer or something. On many occasions I have compiled notes, sometimes manually created sometimes LLM curated, and put them into a .epub file to send to my kindle so I can read as I am out walking.

I'm absoltutely not defending the environmental decision, but these datacenter projects seem to be funded mostly by free cash flow (not borrowed money), from the hyperscaler profit margins.

I've had both. I'd rather have battery operated, especially if you have a big yard. Having an extra backup battery is a good idea as well.

I don't know if this is a hard or soft paywall or signup experience but I was mildly interested in reading and gave up.

The video is silly but the quality is very impressive. We are very close to climbing out the other side of the uncanny valley.

I definitely wish I could use something like this. I am not a great note-taker, and am often distracted during meetings with actual work items, or side pings. Many of us can't just arbitrarily record things though. I work in a highly r

Totally, Airwindows is a very cool project and his videos are fun to watch. I wanted to bring a nicer UI along with it, using JUCE, and more focus on live usability.

Is it lame that (especially for super long discussions), I often open a gemini tab and summarize the comments? I like reading HN comment threads, but I often only have a few minutes and just want to get the gist of the reactions from the co

The gap between China's chip manufacturing capabilities and the USA's is only going to shrink, right? ASML obeys some export controls for their most sophisticated machines, but those machines are in China's backyard (Taiwan).

Something that I think we will see soon (if it doesn't exist already), are programming languages that are specifically designed to be used with LLMs doing the coding, with natural language as the primary input. Maybe LLMs will get so g

I'm using copilot cli because I work at microsoft and it's free for me. It has all the models. I have not loyalty to any of them. Even the copilot harness can be swapped out for claude, codex or whatever.

I haven't smoked in about 13 years, but I did from the time I was 13 until 29 or so. It's disgusting and I couldn't be more glad that I quit, but it does sound good sometimes. I also quit drinking and had to give up caffeine,

I take comfort in the fact that my wife and I have a few decent bookshelves of good novels many of which we have not read yet. I've been hoarding e-books as well.

that's probably true, but if they are anywhere in the realm of leetcode, there are so many example in the training set that they can regurgitate, debug and explain them perfectly. I assembled an entire book of leetcode solutions, expla

It's certainly a lot more satisfying than asking Reddit most of the time, whether you are getting the truth or not. I don't know how many times I've posted a question on reddit, not necessarily about something psychological o
