How? How in the world you burn 500.000.000$ in a month?? I would LOVE to have a look of the distribution of tokens per employee. It needs to be at least 10 people who did the 95% consumption as soon as they saw no limits. Other theory is that they had Mythos available and prompted "hi"

A year or so ago, I started clicking “new” instead of the logo, which I usually click to get to the front page. I had no idea what was going on and just assumed HN had changed the algorithm and suddenly become much more active.

I think it took me between one and two weeks to realize I wasn’t actually clicking the front page.

Not the smartest sheep.

Same here, android

That happens in most speech to text systems, even Superwhisper, Monologue and Wispr Flow. I read somewhere it comes from training on YouTube audio and happens when there is silence. I guess it depends on the model but most of them are based on Whisper which has this problem

Hackernews people will probably leave Google Search, but the rest of the world will surely stay with it for a few more years until we, the Hackernews people, can assure them that the information that those LLMs give is 100% the same as they would find in Google, but faster and to the point.

I think the next most significant milestone for this will be Siri and Google Assistant using this technology all the time. This, I think, will cause Gen Z to start leaving Google Search, and slowly, older Gens will follow.

Me personally? I can't handle Google Searches anymore. I started using Kagi and ChatGPT with the search module, but for things I need to be 100% sure about, I go to Kagi directly.

A little off-topic, but I love that the first paragraph describes the project. Usually, posts exclude that information, and the landing is not of more help.

Yes, but that doesn't change how they fundamentally work. You can replicate things fast, with many variations, almost like brute force but more "thoughtful." Don't get me wrong, this opens many possibilities, and I am even thinking about having a local AI machine for my stuff. However, working with multiple layers of knowledge connections is where I don't see LLMs arriving. Maybe some other technology is based on this, but following LLM evolution will be better data and "patches".

My take on LLMs is that it won't scale much of what we already see because this is "just" text prediction on steroids. I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but that's my opinion, and going through that path, no, I don't see this path as the best path for "autonomous development machines", only powerful autocompletion like we already see today.

+3.5B views in a child-oriented channel. It is high, and even more so near Christmas. I would expect a higher CPM for that target, but maybe the category is saturated.

Of course, if you take "improve" to your terms. For MrBeast, it is to have more views (other than monetization itself); he deliberately works towards it and is public about how he uses YouTube tools to get more views and retention. So, I think my comment is on point.

Other creators will fight for different ways to improve their content, which can technically be 4K HDR or having better guests, etc.

Do youn't like Mr. Beast's "empty" content? Then you don't like society, which is the one taking MrBeast to the top, and I would completely agree with you.

It makes sense. He loves stats and uses them a lot to improve his videos so with this, he can have a platform that can monitor the entire ecosystem.

Right now it's pretty basic but I would bet it will become more complex and have some paid membership for advanced stats and suggestions for your videos.

Yeah right? If people don't want viruses, just don't download them!

My point is that ordinary people don't know that TikTok could be even remotely bad for them, and when they do know, they will think that it is not that dangerous.

And Apple/Google dialogues about data transfer and all that will be dismissed by the user the second its pop-ups.

The user I am describing above is "the crowds". That's why TikTok is so massively used even though their security problems.

What I don't like about Firefox is the fact that it will load all the tabs and windows you had opened before shuting down the computer and there is not a clean way to make it stop. When I finish my day, I like to shutdown the computer and go to sleep or whatever and every day when I open Firefox, all the windows will reopen and I need to close it and re-start... I just want to be able to disable this behaviour from the settings, but it looks Firefox just don't want to address this

This, love his channel, although he is not very active, but when he is active the project is often really interesting and can go for 10 or 12 hours straight.

I love the Idea but pricing seems a little... premium for something is "beta".

For example, Cache, a Get is 0.0001$ per request, so, with the initial 5$ you would have 50k Gets that, given the nature of a Cache seems extremely expensive. I guess your highest costs are storing up to 1mb and egress traffic (If you are in a cloud provider) but, even for a side project I could destroy the 5$ by myself developing the project itself.

Other than that, loving it, and I will try to give it a go in the future, and check how the pricing affects my decisions.

So... Airlines would be interested in heavier people because they pay the most, isn't? And people in low economic brackets would try to lose as much weight as possible, probably getting below healthy conditions just so they can travel cheaper. Healthy indeed...

Interesting, is not an official product from Github, but I love the idea and they being upfront about their inspiration from Simon, a really interesting person to follow, I love his investment in Datasette, SQLite utils and Django.

The thing about Git Scrapping, although I think the idea is awesome, I thought It was against Github Actions rules, or at the very least being on the edge. So I don't know what the position from Github is about this as this is not an official thing from them, but this gives me positive vibes.

I really was thinking that it was intended... I remember watching GTA V on Xbox 360 and being impressed by how good it looked, how it performed in such a "limited" device, so something like this would resonate in a team so good. But it was almost 6 years ago, so probably a good part of that team has moved on to other companies, and the ones left, maybe are in other projects, hopefully, GTA VI.

Glad to see Rockstar addressing this; I will try the update once it is released, and maybe I can play some online games without getting frustrated.

Simonw (creator of Django) has also big list of contributions, so it is perfect for this

Good to hear! Good luck with the project!

As a side note, maybe you already know it but that name in Spanish can be separated as "Lo Odio" which means "I Hate It" At first I though it was some kind of web where people put things they hate, so... Just FYI

Wow, Game Maker 5.1 or something like that is how I started programming, Its drag & drop was super easy to use, and then you could add code blocks and program in a language near to C I think.

I didn't like the YoyoGames look and prices, but GM and its author Marks Overmas, which I think left the project years ago, are part of my past so I really hope with this acquisition they can make it work.

Lol... Have you ever seen a Louis Vuitton bag or Supreme clothes? I mean, maybe is low tier to millionaires but people usually wants just the logo because others will know is expensive and they ""can"" afford it... Or maybe I didn't get the point xD

Yes, that's was exactly the point made by Notch after the Microsoft acquisition of Minecraft isn't? Only that in a lower (not that low) grade... It has to be soul crushing having almost infinite money and not being able to "fix" your brain or buy time...

Offtopic: For a second I read "Facebook acquires Military" and seemed reasonable from them...

I tend to use:

  alias reload="exec -l $SHELL"

Which I copied from somewhere, I don't know how specific it is but maybe it helps someone :)

As far as I know, YAML 1.2 I think, is a superset of JSON so you could still use both. But maybe they use an older version or a custom parser...

> We found a laptop laying around the office that had BIOS password enabled.

I really wanted to be a laptop from someone on vacation and that at his come back finds this post instead of the laptop xD

No, what happens there is that some streamers are more linked to a specific game because maybe they are better or funnier, but that's it. If you go to Twitch and scroll down in Fornite you will see hundreds of people with less than 100 viewers which also confirms that the game means almost nothing.

Minecraft is linked to the growth of many Youtubers because its the most open game you can find and thus giving creators the biggest canvas to their imagination. It's like saying that 90% of a piece of art is the used material... It just doesn't make sense.

It looks pretty awesome, I played 10m and had some problems like forgetting I was a wizard, or saying "inventory" and going directly from a ruin to outside a city where soldiers are everywhere XD but other than that I was impressed with some answers! Good job
