    Man, it's so important to read sometimes. I really hope HN people passing by this comment take a second to contemplate what's being said here. The claim: "the models are tuned to a…

    It's not that the models disagreed, the models reflected exactly the reality of the situation. Sample output: "However, the definitive, legally binding determination of Israel’s re…

    Stt/tts systems always seem to me so promising, but I pretty much never use voice to interface with a computer. Sometimes instead of typing on my phone, I use a voice dictation. I …

    If the corporate berries are really so bad, the invisible hand will push the company in the direction of society's aggregate wallet vote. Sounds like most people are fine with them…

    Victimhood stopped being a valid excuse on the 7th. I hope your friend over there is doing well, and hopes for peace as much as we all do over here. Maybe then we'll see an end to …

    This reminds me of the Jewish Sabbath. Here in Tel Aviv, Saturday means no shops, much fewer restaurants, less programming on TV, gyms/etc open late/close early. The parks and beac…

    I did something similar. My computer crawls lite.cnn.com each Saturday. I feed it all into Gemini who composes a "front page" with links in HTML. Then the whole thing is converted …

    Yeah, I second this. Like other comments have mentioned, you'd expect a human to add a video to such a post. I wonder what urged this robot to post this to HN.

    Ukraine was historically more or less a free-for-all as far as front-line cinema is concerned. I have to imagine the situation in Iran is more difficult for a few reasons: 1. Gen A…

    Speaking from an American perspective, many left-leaning commentators I've seen are focused on the ICE situation in the states right now. But that's the most optimistic take I can …

    Does anyone know how Iranians are _actually_ communicating right now? I remember seeing here on HN (admittedly a long time ago) some Bluetooth-mesh technologies that promised decen…

    I moved all my friends to Wire about a decade ago. Pretty, but the actual user experience was awful. We moved to Telegram and since then to Signal. I didn't actually know Wire was …

    Very interesting to see "Technical Analysis" in this list. I'm no expert in the field, and TA always seemed like quackery to me, but I suspect many more people believe in it than f…

    I agree specifically, but disagree generally. As we become more and more acquainted with programming, a lot of what we do why we do it is incoherent nonsense to a beginner, but imp…
