Can you drive on mobile?

It’s my favorite podcast right now!

The only thing that's random here is your liberal interpretation of the word random

It's right in the description

> That (urban-legend-coded, totally-trippy-if-you're-fifteen-years-old) app introduced me to "Binaural Beats" - where you play two different tones in each of a person's ears, and the brain scrambles the different frequencies into a single frequency. As I understand it, this is meant to induce specific brainwaves in the listener, which replicate states like "deep focus" or "half-asleep" or "meditating". I've not decided personally if this is real science, or new-age pseudoscientific nonsense. It's probably somewhere between the two.

It sounds like you don't know Jack Conte. This isn't a melodramatic AI written tome... The guy is heartbroken

>> Are you consciously choosing to completely ignore > Let me stop you right there: Yes

Reading this in text is unreasonably funny. Thanks for the chuckle

Seeing this makes me unreasonably happy. Funny how nostalgia is

> Literally every rule…

Imagine for a second if that were actually the case. Most rules are determined by physics, science, data, or something tangible. Food safety, aviation, electrical codes, even sports rules are based on math and statistics.

What does it take to get a vote? Could there be some sabotage here?

It’s bad because it’s subjective. It’s a liability to host anything there now - their opinion of your product category could shift tomorrow… oh wait that already happened

Ya that’s too awkward. Clipboard history needs to be ⌘+Shift+V or I’d never use it

If you've never seen neon up close, plasma is such an incredible light source. It's like the light is just floating being emitted from empty space. I took a neon workshop a few years ago, and it became clear why people are still willing to painstakingly make these signs - there is really nothing comparable to them, they're like magic

Agree accidentally clobbering the clipboard is super annoying. Clipboard history apps are a godsend. Like Paste on Mac, or Windows has it built in.

Who downvotes this..?

> cyber models… cyber capabilities… cyber incident…

It’s like reading a post from an 90s tech magazine

Because they’re complaining about it moving to Rust. I don’t know. I’m just saying, they can do something about it instead of complain

I meant continuing to develop it

There's literally nothing stopping anyone from continuing the Zig version if they want to

Yeah I know. I misunderstood the 12-15hr battery life comment. They're saying the battery lasts for 12-15hrs *of recording*. Very different statements.

It's kind of interesting reading the scathing comments about the lack of a rechargable battery, but it probably makes the most sense if the two year battery life claims are true, as you'd likely be ready for an upgrade by then and the technology would be cheaper and/or more advanced. This thing isn't an iphone. It weighs a few grams. There's likely less silicon and battery in it than in the singing greeting card you got two year old for their birthday. Everyone needs to chill out

yep, you can buy a new one

It would be funny if solar panels worked this way. We could just spray paint our homes with them. Free energy!!

That discrepancy isn't explainable given a change in daily use. 12hrs vs 2 years is a 1000x difference. You're saying they expected people to use it 1000x less than they actually are? That's them expecting people to use it for 1 min per day, and people actually are using it for 16 hours per day

It only works as a decoy when you give it to the LLM as an image. As html it appears like normal human friendly text, which is what screen readers use to interpret the text.

If your immediate reaction to a new piece of software siphoning up someone’s entire system full of highly personal data is, “you’re holding it wrong”, it might help to take a beat and remember that software was developed by a multi-trillion dollar company’s entire business model revolves around siphoning up as much highly personal data as possible

I’ll just leave this here…

If it takes cute packaging to get people into it, so be it. This seems like a great project. The more the merrier

Wow that demo is slow on iOS

> scared of offending someone that intentionally they make their model lie

You’re conflating two completely different aspects of model development - biases vs truth. The models weren’t intentionally programmed to say the untruths but to remove racism and bias and the outcome was untruth. As such, the developers behind Grok are comfortable with their model doing heinous things no other model developer will go near. It’s been very difficult to articulate this to you so I’ll just bow out and leave you to continue repeating yourself

> Whenever I leave a company I make sure everything that belongs to the company goes back

It’s a total liability to hold onto anything. Even if you don’t do anything with it, it could get stolen or misplaced, and you’re liable. Not worth the headache.
