It’s a fine analogy and you’re just showing off your game of thrones knowledge.

Haves and have nots.

We aren’t wealthy enough to have the hardware that would make this good.

The people who have the money to buy a spare maxed out Mac mini just don’t get it. I see lots of folks with RTX 6000’s in threads like these. Or any RTX card that ends in “90”.

Cloud AI is what allows the proles to participate in the broader AI conversation, but not these AI conversations.

“OwnCloud infinite scale” is written in Go. But ownCloud 10 is php.

I tried for weeks to get OCIS working but gave up and went back to ownCloud 10.

They’re committed to security updates for 10 but it’s a small company. I doubt it will get much attention sadly.

In my experience the resistance seems to come from the sense of “waste” that comes from buying a specialized vehicle. Anecdotally the folks I talk to (all blue-collar “commoners”) are overly focused on buying the eierlegende Wollmilchsau[0] vehicle. They view specialized vehicles, especially luxury-priced specialized vehicles, as an unnecessary waste.

Does this relate with your experience? It sounds like your perspective is broader than mine and more informed.

Edit: oof two downvotes for trying to have a conversation and expand my understanding of a culture. Vielen dank.

I mean, you can see how a kastenwagen nutzfahrzeug is a very different vehicle from a consumer mid-size pickup, right?

Sure, technically some would call the vehicle you linked a pickup, and technically German law still identifies the consumer pickup truck as a nutzfahrzeug instead of a PKW, but it doesn’t feel like you’re making a best effort to meet GP in the middle.

Network storage does not handle the online/offline switching as transparently as OneDrive (or other cloud storage).

For large enterprises that old architecture you refer to means long lead times on network and storage outage notifications, and huge fallout if an outage window is blown.

And if the building network goes down, or if your storage servers are located off site because you’re too big for one building and the commercial internet goes down, etc etc

But it doesn’t have to be OneDrive. There are many other options. I run ownCloud 10 for my personal files. If I were a small to medium business, I would look hard at OCIS.

its shocking people don't realize you're being ironic

Don’t fall for the hype cycle. Just wait till the blogosphere confirms that it’s useful stuff.

I doubt you’ll feel so strongly in a month or two.

Yep. Lived for multiple decades in the US and also in Europe.

But, as with most things, the US is too big for any one persons experience to be universally applicable.

As I said, it’s what most people express that I talk to. But that doesn’t mean I think it’s true for every area of the country.

I must be the weirdo for not wanting to feel unsettled like that. Doesn’t reality have enough unsettling stuff? Why pile onto that?

Give me comedy. Oh how I miss the 90 minute comedy movie.

50Hz is what European power runs at, as opposed to North American 60Hz. This had some correlation to the analog film frame rates being 25 fps in Europe and nearly 30 fps in America, though I’m not entirely sure what the cause was.

Nowadays it’s probably a performance / battery saving “feature” attempt.

Zero mention of wait times in the US compared to other countries. Pretty sure that's the chief complaint in most countries that have free-ish healthcare.

moving all of the fast and breaking all of the things

Feels like a sign of the times that I expect half the comments here to be paid astroturfing about how amazing creatine is.

Absolutely. I can't tell you how many times I've been in a conversation and halfway through a sentence I need to whip out AI to scratch the mental itch so I can continue with the conversation.

But prior to this I would rabbit hole. I would try desperately to remember some nuance, or I would not be able to move off a point until I got the validation I was looking for.

The worst is when speaking a foreign language and I hit some complex word in my native language that isn't present in my foreign lexicon. My brain just halts. It wants THAT word or phrase, not a 3 minute detour describing a whole concept.

AI has empowered me to move past these unnecessarily difficult speed bumps in my thinking.

I’m interested what you believe the intent of your message to be. You’re talking to a COO that just raised money as if you’re mentoring someone about to approach VCs for the first time. Hugely patronizing attitudes often just get a pass here on HN, but what is your purpose for using one here?

Not hotdog. But eight octopus recipe.

It’s also the day before SharePoint 2016 and SharePoint 2019 (both considered office products) fall out of support and have to be replaced by SharePoint subscription edition.

Buying back shares it sold at a lower price, right? The lifecycle of a share starts with the transfer of money to a company in exchange for a share. It ends with a buy back, ideally at a higher price.

But still, at the beginning it is a transfer into the company’s coffers.

Well, when the company issues shares, then the money goes into their account, right?

There are numerous copies of the source available for claude code now that it has been leaked. The vast majority of what makes CC useful is already present, and it's unlikely that any killer features will be added going forward.

So it's already possible for someone to "vibecode it back". It's just perhaps not legal.

I don't believe you deserve the downvotes you're getting. Sometimes a good joke is so good that it appears shallow at first glance, but only upon reflection does the true humor show through. A shallow callout such as yours is sometimes necessary to call the reader back to it for that further reflection.

Thank you I KNEW I recognized that domain name

The US government has a lot.

Just one random Google result:

OK so apparently when you file for an IR-1 visa, the IR-1 is the sticker they put in your passport that gets you into the country. But once you get the card, it replaces the visa. So the card is not the visa.

Today I learned. Before this thread, I was under the same impression as bluesea.

Write your own plugin for HN. Just install tampermonkey and get an AI to build the functionality for you.

I have a plugin I made that greys out AI related topic titles.

Early on, when I would try this, it resulted in instant downvotes, and I noticed others that would cite explicitly that AI was used would also receive an unusually large number of downvotes that seemed more correlated to the admission of using AI.

I suspect nobody is willing to admit it anymore because they will lose internet points over it.

His reaction probably still would not have been solidified yet, given how long his response took to other tectonic shifts in technology. That isn’t to say he wouldn’t have an opinion to voice, I just suspect it wouldn’t have resulted in a product direction for at least a few more years.
