Gotcha, I missed that. Thank you.

Any true benefit benefit of using this over Bazzite or SteamOS coupled with EmuDeck? I am not an expert in the space, but I am about to build a machine and install Bazzite.

For example I have a thread for engineer status updates. I get the call transcripts from an internal app my company developed and I push everything into ChatGPT. When I need to recall something, I just ask ChatGPT. It is much better than indexed search.

If I need to just write and don’t want feedback, i tell ChatGPT to not reply until I say so, and I will just write in the most lazy and disparaged way, a true brain dump, When I am ready, ChatGPT will sort out my thoughts.

If conversations get too large I summarize everything that’s important and migrate to another conversation.

I would have killed for this back in 2022.

I take all of my notes on ChatGPT now, and for more structured data I have built specialized tools/agents, and even small front ends like for my portfolio management track.

It’s crazy how different my world used to be back then; note apps feel so primitive now.

The HN UI is good because in 20 seconds I can assess the full top page.

If you can figure out how to add the tags while keeping down the visual bloat I would consider a switch.

Getting downvoted for asking a question lol.

What is the cognitive dissonance true believers learn to live with?

While Sam is being egotistic, the reverence of Jobs to the point nobody is even allowed to assume how he would have thought is also weird imho.

Hahahaha. Upvote.

Fandom is a pit of the internet that you never want to find yourself in. Giantbomb probably should have never happened, it never hit the heights of Gamespot.

I’ve been very successful with AI generated code. I provide the requirements and design the system architecture, and AI generates the code I would usually delegate. If any specific part requires me to dig in, I do it myself.

PS: Also, some people act as if they have to remove their common sense when using Gen AI code. You have to review and test the generated code before merging it.

That is profiling.

Fingerprinting is an identification mechanism. It is most commonly used for targeting and profiling.

That is what the fingerprinting is for.

> How is knowing whether I have the Xbox or the Playstation app installed on my phone essential to their Swiggy's core functionality? How will knowing if I have the Naukri or Upstox app help them deliver groceries to my doorstep?

It is for fingerprinting purposes

I hear you. I make these decisions for a public company.

When engineers tell me they want to run models on the cloud, I tell them they are free to play with it, but that isn’t a project going into the roadmap. OpenAI/Anthropic and others are much cheaper in terms of token/dollar thanks to economies of scale.

There is still value in running your models for privacy issues however, and that’s the reason why I pay attention to efforts in reducing the cost to run models locally or in your cloud provider.

This is true. Not sure why you are getting downvoted. I say this as someone who ordered a maxed out model. I know I will never have a need to run a model locally, I just want to know I can.

You are right. I guess I went off past articles I’ve read from SFGate. This one is very unbiased.

I have never seen an SF news publication being truly critical of the politicians that lord over the city and state. These publications will criticize the situation and blame factors, but never individuals and their actions. Never expect accountability from them.

“The Floyd” is the name a lot of people who worked with the band use, it shows up on many texts and other documentaries.

Is “propaganda” rigging?

As of late, whenever someone doesn’t like the result of an election “rigging” is an adequate term.

That doesn’t matter. The content each user sees is multiple orders of magnitude less.

Of course engagement is better when posts have less competition for attention.

It looks like Kamala is going to fall more than 5M short of Biden’s 81M. With a bigger voting population and record in person turnout.

Amazing victory.

I am waiting for the final tally to understand how the Dems lost 15M votes from one election to the other.

I drove a Miata for 11 years, even a regular sized car would be a mortal threat.

I drive an SUV now and I plan on driving a bigger safer car once I have a family. It is an arms race on the road.

Because it is one of the key examples of how taxes trickle down.

Also, do you see those old tax rates? People love to make comparisons about how housing was affordable half a century ago, then check out the tax rates, that’s partly why.

We are at absurd tax rates and all because the government doesn’t make any effort to control their spending.

Rich individuals who are born into money will always find ways to escape these taxes, but your average person who built their wealth will not and in a decade when they hit the middle class, they will just contribute to extending the wealth gap.

This is so naive. When you allow those tracking pixels you get paid to do it.

Apple doubling down on the evil. No wonder the stock is up.

This is how proof of work dies, watch.

I was once asked to do this for an “idea guy” who burned his technical cofounder. The technical cofounder abandoned the project taking away access to the repos.

The funny thing is that the idea guy kept lying about what happened originally, but eventually confessed once everything I suggested to get access back to the repos wasn’t possible.
