I'm just wondering why they sold compute to Anthropic if they were planning on still competing in this race?

I wonder if I could start a US-based company with good data regulation and just serve open-weight models at a competitive price. I feel like the real barrier is just that most companies willing to adopt AI usage enough to make it worth it a

You've gotta leverage your network and find friends you know who work at Meta/IG. I was able to get my account back without asking friends at IG (because mine wasn't fully disabled just password changed), but people I know wh

I don’t use this account as a personal account. It has 0 followers. It’s solely used for design inspiration.

This happened to my instagram yesterday night while I was asleep. I don't have a particularly high value username (it's probably worth somewhere in between $300-500), but still incredibly frustrating to deal with. True to the arti

I don't follow. It seems obvious that there's more to gain for attackers using AI agents to exploit open source repositories, than there is for good samaritan defenders. In this new closed-source world (for Cal.com), there's

A combination of https://selfcontrolapp.com/ and Hammerspoon automation and you can lock yourself out of pretty much everything.

It would be easier if we could just block comments from green users. I get that it loses ~.1% of authors who might have made an account to comment on a blogpost of theirs that was posted here. I'd rather have that loss than have to dea

This can't be a to-die-on rule though. Retail would've never bought GOOG, or TSLA, or AAPL if that were the case. Maybe I'm just being pedantic.

Noticeably yes much more than usual. It’s quite bad. I need to start blocking accounts.

Is there any hard evidence that this is true compared to say 20 years ago. I’ve heard it repeated a million times but no one’s ever provided evidence

Who do you think your target customer is? Curious to know if you think the money is in short form, traditional YouTube videos, or even movie studios one day. Great website btw. The onboarding was very pleasing

This is true! I hadn't thought about it like this to be totally honest. It's hard to point fingers at old institutions, especially given they're mostly located in prime real estate locations across the country (Cambridge, Pal

I recently graduated (class of '25), and the thing I heard most often about my school's management was that over the past couple of decades, they more closely resembled a real estate holding company than a research university. The

Anyone who disagrees with this, please check the OP's previous comments. That's all the proof you need. And then, as an exercise, ask yourself why you were willing to give this comment leniency?

I don't know why more school districts don't force this for essays. It's so straightforward with Google doc editing history too. And yeah, sure, you can get around it if you _really_ want quite trivially, but I imagine it wou

I've always wished there was a "block comments from this user" feature that didn't rely on vibe-coding my own Chrome extension (and thus not work on Safari where I spent at least 50% of my HN time). I imagine it could ev
