How does this compare to global leaders?

maxbaines··on Is a Poe.com subscription better than ChatGPT Plus?
That said I see better results mostly via the API and a good prompt.
maxbaines··on Is a Poe.com subscription better than ChatGPT Plus?
Very likely your initial system prompt, versus chatGPT. Also ChatGPT is more than just an client for the GPT4 API.

maxbaines··on Show HN: Olle – ChatGPT on Your Mac
I don't think you're late to the GPT party, lets remember how early we are in the AI timeline. It's all of us building with AI that'll actually make it useful. I'm going to try Olle, thanks.

Perhaps post some details here? As Show HN.
maxbaines··on Show HN: Symphony – Use GPT-4 to call functions in sequence
Be really helpful to me and maybe others if you could let us know what 'Clones' you know of?, as I struggle to find them, thanks.
maxbaines··on Elon Musk to be billed for unauthorised flashing X sign
For X Corp a cheap publicity stunt, nice move.
maxbaines··on A Grub theme in the style of Minecraft
I like the fact this is number one, on hn right now.
maxbaines··on Mac shipments grow 10%, as all major PC brands see downturns
Same for me.
maxbaines··on Ask HN: Who can make my SaaS demo\intro video?
This is a great question keen to see the responses, as I often get cold/spam emails on this topic but never know if the work is of a good standard etc.
maxbaines··on ChatGPT conversations can be shared publicly
As per this OpenAi blog post April 25, 2023.

'We've introduced the ability to turn off chat history in ChatGPT. Conversations that are started when chat history is disabled won’t be used to train and improve our models, and won’t appear in the history sidebar. These controls, which are rolling out to all users starting today, can be found in ChatGPT’s settings and can be changed at any time. We hope this provides an easier way to manage your data than our existing opt-out process. When chat history is disabled, we will retain new conversations for 30 days and review them only when needed to monitor for abuse, before permanently deleting.'

Chat history can be disabled in the settings menu, temporarily or permanently at least for Plus users, not sure about free users…
maxbaines··on Ableton Push 3
Great to see an upgrade kit. Interestingly "Each Upgrade Kit contains a processor, hard drive, battery, heatsink and all the tools you need for assembly."
maxbaines··on YouTube on TVs getting unskippable 30-second and pause screen ads
Rare I say this but I think broadly YouTube has a good offering even with 30second ad's. If you don't want ad's pay for premium I do and get more entertainment and education value than say Netflix and others. For instance in the UK there is a service called NowTV run by Sky, you pay ~£10 a month for entertainment package and more for sport and then still get ad's which for me makes it a no go.
maxbaines··on Majority of gig economy workers are earning below minimum wage: research
Big difference between struggling to feed yourself and starvation. Still I’m not to sure we make a huge effort in this area regardless of the term, without charities that is.
maxbaines··on Majority of gig economy workers are earning below minimum wage: research
FYI, in the UK specifically for Uber eats 100% of tips go to drivers.
maxbaines··on Majority of gig economy workers are earning below minimum wage: research
Oh wow, i naturally presumed it was the case, about to check on that thanks for the info.
maxbaines··on Majority of gig economy workers are earning below minimum wage: research
we should all take note of this, and where we can give a meaningful tip to the workers. Every time I use a service like this I tip on average twice the delivery cost ~£5. Very few of these services are essential, there here to make our lives easier, I tip them for that.

Because they have to, to make ends meet. When you are struggling to feed yourself and maybe a family it leaves little room for learning or enjoying yourself.
maxbaines··on Hue Light Hack
I have found Hue to be a rare example of how IoT can be good, they have a pretty open platform using the bridge and api, with good quality if a little pricey product. Be great if hue made a devkit for the kind of projects in the post.
maxbaines··on People who use Notion to plan their whole lives
Yes this is what I do also - But reading this thread is perhaps making me wonder if this is an unusual approach? To me its very normal to know what I need to do, and very very rarely do I miss something, a task etc.
maxbaines··on Baltimore PD's gun tracing taskforce stole from public, put innocents in jail
Way down in the hole.
maxbaines··on GitHub is down?
Yes looks like it is, from UK.
