GTA VI will be released before an LLM will be able to do that

Things can go wrong, but really, its been a lot and we're normalizing that to an unhealthy degree...

I wonder if it was down that much, if users would get credits the way we pay when we use the services - its kind of ridiculous for a critical service to be down that much and all we do is "ah okay, its just github". Like, as if that was normal to be down that much...

I would totally accept that as "okay" - but then, we pay for that service usage based, and it doesn't go both ways: its down, its down, nobody credits us for the hours it was down. Instead we are waiting, and looking at a status page, hoping it will resolve.

I am wondering if it would be a lot more stable if users would be credited every time it was down on a "usage basis"...

for me its unbearably slow - especially with deepseek v4 pro. Is that just myself? I literally signed up and canceled again, because for one prompt I needed around 5 minutes to get 600 tokens back (via ollama launch claude --mode ...)

yes, we do, e.g. flixbus. and some others I think. Haven't been traveling for a while by bus around Austria. Apples/Oranges probably, but I do know vienna<->bratislava has like 3-4 different companies operating the same route with similar busses at similar times with different prices.

And talking about apples/oranges, let me add apples/bananas: Vienna to Budapest by train cost a lot when booking via öbb. And not a lot when booking via Regiojet.

The problem is the offers are all scattered around imho.

"The Koralm Tunnel opened on the 14th of December 2025" ... wikipedia living in the future past :)

Like courses on udemy. Most people buy a ton of courses probably for the feeling of having bought a course. Which translates apparently to already halfway there becoming that expert the courses promises you to become. Or they build a catalog and sell the account (on udemy).

shhhhush, corporates hate this trick :P

same here.

It's actually relaxing to just drive around with different cars into the sunset, turn the radio on and occasionally overrun some pedestrians.

I knew I can't be the only one finding it relaxing, yet the anxiety before starting the game if I can play it or not because of yet another update is really a downturn.

actually the closet isn't fancy, its just the content.

Like HN, I don't visit the site for the great design, I come for the golden content.

...

Sry, I had to...

That is AWESOME! I am wondering, are you creating all the content yourself?

I am doing plenty of courses across different platforms, from udemy to teachable selfhosting etc. They all lack the interactivity. I am currently hosting the code samples myself and basically redirect students there, where they can interact.

But scrimba is another league!

If you open this up similar to how udemy just hosts videos and does revenue share, count me in. With the webcontainers, the sky is the limit and beyond.

If I imagine I run into a factory full of "thinking" (current LLM level top of line benchmark) humanoid looking robots who are collaborating on tasks dynamically as needed in the dark (because they don't need light, ... or oxygen ... or basically anything but electricity)...

In my book that is as dystopian as it gets and has nothing to do with the current level of automation with robots that's happening, that's a whole new level. Production efficiency is one thing, but not far and the DOD or someone else on the other end of the world has some creative ideas how to use that to "make the world great again"...

yes, they do, that is true, however that's with [some]-axis stationary robots. Not humanoid robots literally running around. The best we can do right now afaik is that robot-dog-like thing which can overcome obstacles and be equipped with sensors. Nothing human like.

Quite dystopian thinking how a full factory and beyond could be run completely in the dark, just robots running around doing their thing. Faster, stronger, more accurate, never tired, never sleeping. Add in a small nuclear battery like the one from Betavolt coming up and mass produce it. And you have an autonomous "thinking" thing in the physical world capable of almost anything that humans are capable. Endless possibilities...

Never has the future been brighter and darker at the same time.. lets see.

I somehow do not get it, quite possibly a knowledgegap on my side - is that another runtime such as bun? What's the difference?

Isn't the problem always just ios for cross platform - is bare running on iOS? Can you shed some light on this?

Is there actually an "domain reputation as a service" provider, which controls a couple thousand gmail addresses, sends itself the emails and manually unmarks them as spam? Asking for a friend..........

to be fair here: for a lot of companies, if the mass mailing stops, the money-flow stops then that's no good for anyone... so the CEO will probably err on the side of money, presumably.

wow, that is quite an eye opener. That's terrible really. It's like a whole country is addicted to sugar drinks and wheat flour (?).

Thanks for sharing

I have an honest question here, that is a bit off-topic:

When I look at the pictures, I see most people are overweight (some are outright fat and obese). Is that just by accident on these particular pictures with a tiny sample size? Or is that a problem in Mexico?

I'm from Europe and when I think about Mexico, I do not have overweight people in my mind, instead a relatively healthy diet of local produce. Is that a misconception?

Oh I wish...

"Hey computer, enable self destruct, authorization Picard 4-7 Alpha Tango"

"Selfdestruct not available since the Cancun upgrade"

jokes aside, I think we're moving more and more into a place where we have thousands of specialized connectors to let the general AI models "do stuff" directly. We might finally move into a time where we can interact in multi-modal ways with a computer and "it understands and does things". But as always, with great powers comes great responsibility, not sure I'd give it access to my private keys to send transactions for example...

You, sir, are a legend.

I am sad that the truffle debugger got sunset together with truffle - besides tenderly there's not much alternatives there.

I sincerely hope, from the bottom of my heart, you find the job and team you are looking for, because the world needs more people like you.

> My advice is to celebrate the successes of large corporates in this regard very hard and often - this provides backup to the champions on the inside.

I am wondering what the metrics / KPIs are they are tracking to see if open sourcing something is a success or not. Can't be just "sales went up for retro games when we open sourced" - there must be something like community reception and retention, general acceptance or whatever...

But yes, I agree. Let's celebrate this and hope for more.

because every single instruction is a potential bug and maybe there are several bugs in one line?

I am speechless.

The most vile gaming company I know. The most beloved game I ever played.

Now, Open source ... from them? How? Why? Marketing gag or a step in the right direction?

But then, OpenRA has existed for a while - does that mean its getting even better?

Where is this going?

They can, or? Apple calls that spatial videos, or does that work differently?

I had the same book - the one with the black border? :) There was a dolphin or something, right? So long ago, can barely remember...

The water eye thing only happens to me if I cross my eyes and focus before the picture and not behind the picture. The latter takes some time to let the eyes relax, but its much more natural.

Is the idea here to basically transform the almost unlimited degrees of freedom an AI has in manipulating rastered image properties from one frame to another in a limited set of known things it can change?

I mean, unless its a wild magic sci-fi movie, it makes sense that once a character is known in separation to its background, that the background doesn't change with a hands movement of the character. And the character cannot move beyond earthy physics?

Is that what this is?

I also sometimes have memories before 3, but mostly I am sleeping.

However, on rare occasion, people send me pictures where I am awake at 3, but I have no memories.

Sorry folks, I see myself out, that was inappropriate, I hope nobody will remember.

Same here, I basically turned off all the auto-complete things everywhere in all the tools I am using, can't stand it. And just before reading your comment, I had a google doc I edited in the other tab and thought, how annoying are these auto suggestions actually. Not helping at all, instead a distraction (to me).

For AI coding I'm using Aider as a docker container in the terminal in the IDE and I love it. I can write what I want how I feel the prompt to be necessary and then (and only then) it makes the changes or runs whatever I requested. The IDE runs uninterrupted and without any "smart suggestions". A tool for every job. Sometimes I do a lot in aider, sometimes I don't open it at all, but its all separated where what happens when.

But yeah, anyways, while not as strongly feeling as you (probably) towards auto suggesting mid way through my sentence, I at least feel they are more distraction than help to me.

Very very sad to hear. I didn't even know the site exists, let alone what a vast dataset it has.

I am somehow surprised and not surprised at the same time, the HK people I know are very diligent, dedicated, hard working individuals. It's always a pleasure to visit hong kong or work with someone from hong kong.

Curious, if anybody ever thought that it would be a good idea not to have that dataset about hk and presumably a lot of china in hong kong but outside. The influence from the central party is getting bigger in hk and if it really tracks that many overspendings (?) ("I deciphered the pseudo-disclosure on who received over HK$90bn of hand-outs under the so-called Employment Support Scheme, draining a substantial portion of HK's fiscal reserves") some might not be happy and want to remove or alter the data. Isn't that a concern?
