For the TypeScript projects that I work in, if there is value in a compile error phase I am not smart enough to know what it is, heh.

Lots and lots of automation, along with long-running multi-instance headless tasks. My usage, which I was on the verge of increasing via a second Max plan, would cost 3 figures per day , rather than per month. I already know this because m

It's a bit disheartening that this is generating so little discussion (this thread seems to be the one with the most comments, currently at 8). 99% of my max plan usage is non-interactive, and this post-June 15 pricing will far, far ex

Last week (Sunday to Sunday) I had a repo running a lot of cron workflows 24/7. After like 4 or 5 days I exceeded the free limits (Pro plan) and so set up self hosted runners. After like day 2 my workflows would take 10-15 minutes past

Odd that you would omit the part of the text you quoted that contradicts the impression your partial quote creates. > The images were initially believed to have been obtained via a breach of Apple's cloud services suite iCloud, or a

While not reflected in the title, this story is relevant to HN as at least some of the "ghost guns" found were 3D printed.

Oh sorry, you're right. Here's an article[1] about Facebook, from the same outlet. With some cursory searching I couldn't find anything about other social networks hiring former three letter agency employees. [1] https:&#x2F

Heh, mostly as an experiment. I'd done a fair bit of scraping for some personal football apps over the past few years. Was curious about how GPT might be used when starting from first principles, as well as its abilities to solve speci

Great question. The problem with the raw HTML was token count. :) A rather high percentage of pages are far too much for a GPT prompt!

As someone who has been doing the same thing recently, here's how I solved the issue where the page content has to be in the initial HTML. The first thing I did was fall back to a headless browser. Let it sit for 5 seconds to let the p

When this topic has come up with family and friends, folks often say that they aren't worried (yet) because while a human can be fooled, they can't yet fool readily available forensic tools, and perhaps can't ever. I can&#x27

Wow, you weren't kidding about those images. What I found particularly striking about them was how much they reminded me of both neurons and larger brain structures, as well as some of those newer, ML-assisted FMRI imagery. Probably ju

It routinely bothers me a bit that, IME, most IRL discussions of the Fermi paradox tend to omit this rather simple explanation. Half the time it's brought up, FTL is offered as the solution. Which as best we can tell is fundamentally i

Given that a @username account exists on mastodon, I wonder if simply tweeting a screenshot of this policy would itself be a violation of the policy.

:) For prior art, see what happened to Aereo. A little-known fact is that YouTube TV started with the exact same strategy. But Google, of course, had more money and lawyers to get over the hump.

I spent a couple years on the YouTube Music team, adjacent to the folks who handled the nightmare that is music rights and licensing. It was explained to me that the reason YouTube didn't offer a karaoke feature -- despite having licen

To your point, rape statistics in Sweden seemed to be the major talking point on this issue, and would generally trigger the response you describe.

Based on my observations from having Swedish friends and spending time in Sweden, a lot of the rise of the extreme right there can be directly attributed to the tensions resulting from the Syrian refugee crisis. The last time I was in Swede
