knewter··on Show HN: Reimplement the Embedded Security CTF Game in Elixir/LiveView
This is very cool. I kinda want to play with this a lot now.
knewter··on Show HN: Pinbot – An extension to privately search one's browser history with AI
Can chatgpt do it for you?
knewter··on OpenAI came after our domain because we use GPT in it
Are white supremacists generally believed to be referring to Hispanics as supreme? If not, I contend it is reasonable for me to have assumed at least one of the ten reports I read would spend a moment addressing this dissonance.
knewter··on Global warming set to break key 1.5C by 2027
It's been 9 hours. I sense a lack of conviction.
knewter··on AI can’t do hiring because it lacks the data
Being born in America is winning the lottery in many ways. Should Americans pursue jobs in third world countries to avoid failing to succeed on their own merits?

Shoot, you'd really need to pick the worst job in the worst country as your starting point to know you really had what it takes.

knewter··on Famous chef wants to open a Bay Area restaurant. A gas stove ban may prevent it
You see no space between "I think electricity is more efficient" and "we should ban other options"?
knewter··on OpenAI came after our domain because we use GPT in it
Why are you referring to Mauricio Garcia, the Hispanic shooter, as a white supremacist? I read through ten articles about him just now - all of them said he was a white supremacist, none of them bothered explaining how a Hispanic man was a white supremacist. Surely in a sane world one of them would at least pay lip service to explaining that to me, but nope.
knewter··on Sam Altman goes before US Congress to propose licenses for building AI
Very much so
knewter··on Famous chef wants to open a Bay Area restaurant. A gas stove ban may prevent it
I'm honestly gobsmacked at the hn lovefest for banning natural gas. It's not rational behaviour. it's sociologically fascinating, but yuck.
knewter··on Acceptance Address by Mr. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (1983)
Yeah but I bet he meant God though
knewter··on Open source AI makes modern PCs relevant, and subscriptions seem shabby
"any huggingface model" not even close
knewter··on Investors brace for a painful crash into America’s debt-ceiling
Presumably you believe the rate of inflation is unrelated to the rate of currency issuance. This seems incorrect.
knewter··on Pixel phones are sold with bootloader unlocking disabled
Someone do this and send us a pcap
knewter··on Pixel phones are sold with bootloader unlocking disabled
The pocophone f1 was for a while the fastest mainline Linux phone. Throw postmarketos on that bad boy.
knewter··on PepsiCo Unveils Fleet of 18 Tesla Semi in Sacramento
Is your contention that Tesla is underperforming?
knewter··on Elon Musk ‘Shadow Bans’ All of Matt Taibbi’s Tweets, Including Twitter Files
Are you aware that his real goal is to make Twitter into a wechat-esque app, x.com, and have you considered the economics of that business at scale?
knewter··on Tell HN: Happy Easter
Happy Easter! He is risen!
knewter··on Show HN: I built a website editor for TailwindCSS
Webase is cool. I used an earlier iteration to put together a tiny project teacher prototype and it was very smooth. With the tailwind components, it looks nicer!
knewter··on Ask HN: Schema Driven Apps
I would assume they are explicitly referencing activeadmin
knewter··on Who Owns SpongeBob? AI Shakes Hollywood’s Creative Foundation
If you read "adult film-maker" in a different way this paragraph gets weird quickly :)
knewter··on Ubuntu Touch OTA-1 Focal brings Ubuntu 20.04 LTS to smartphones
I was under the impression it was available at least for pinephone pro via pmOS already but haven't checked
knewter··on Show HN: Quadratic – Open-Source Spreadsheet with Python, AI (WASM and WebGL)
This looks great, and I'm always eager for competition for Google sheets and friends. Supporting python directly makes it seem great for a massive variety of use cases, and python is incredibly accessible.

Connecting this up to databases seems like it would provide a great deal more value - excited to see that come to fruition.

Additionally, from the demo video, I have to say the performance is impressive. I haven't seen a similar product yet from that respect - curious if this is due to my ignorance or your ingenuity.

At any rate, congratulations!

What are some of the useful things you've used it for recently?

knewter··on Pine64 Star64: RISC-V SBC with GPU to launch for $69.99 and up
Pine64 does a great job with mainline support in my experience
knewter··on Sparks of Artificial General Intelligence: Early Experiments with GPT-4
I appreciated it :)
knewter··on Ask HN: How are you preparing for the AIpocalypse?
I stopped using Facebook when I realized it was a lever to shape human discourse. I was able to opt out my family from first order effects at least.
knewter··on Mostr: A Fediverse Nostr Bridge
Watching the sudden smashing together of nostr and fediverse has been great. Jack Dorsey interacting with fediverse folks is fun.
knewter··on Grid scale buffering with molten salt batteries that run at 500 Celsius
My grill can hit 700 if I want to make a pizza. Handwringing over this is ridiculous
knewter··on Bizarre and unusual uses of DNS
I made an elixir library called mechanical turk down that blocks until the newly created mechanical turk job gets a response to render the markdown
knewter··on Bizarre and unusual uses of DNS
A tiny bash script and a cronjob
knewter··on Airbnb banned her parents for being related to her
I anticipated that was what you meant, and believe it would have a horrific outcome. AOL, but run like the DMV.
