I recently watched a snazzy labs video of him trying or Tesla's most recent full self driving and finding that it could get stuck in infinite decision loops that required the user …

The problem isn't the word cheap, it's just that'd you've attached it to the food, and not the diner. Food4thecheap Good food on the cheap Cheapo's meal map Bums' Guides

Per the write-up, that's where the AI comes in - it's got confidence for days! Turn your low confidence into high confidence by handing off diagnostics to an AI. "We either need to…

This sends like a more-info-requiered situation. Per this article, the LEOs seemed to be fishing, so they presumably couldn't claim as a matter of fact that evidence had been destr…

I love (/s) that there's a Cafe business that can survive on a singular customer base of people who parked their cars for a long time in one very specific parking lot. https://maps…

It's solving the 'meatsack labor costs are really cramping my profitability' problem. It's an inconveniently located valet service. But oh, you keep your keys. So it's really an in…

I've wondered for a while what value is assigned if a user ignores or dismisses (when possible) a cookie banner without actively selecting accept or decline. Anyone know?

One might wonder why the Ford CEO cares about low cost foreign cars when Ford doesn't even make any. They have shifted all of their lineup except one car model to higher- margin co…

What number is affiliate marketing on PT's list? Linking to Amazon rather than Project Gutenberg is the art of money getting, 2026 edition.

Something no one else would want - a little colored dot next to HN user names keyed to their generation, so I could quickly tell why none of the commenter mentioned AOL.

I feel sad that evening I read now has to pass through my "is this LLM slop?" filter, and if it gets caught, the content loses focus and the worthless puzzle of truth takes over. S…

This reads to me like you are putting effort into presenting your car is sick a way that satisfies your version of objectively neutral. I wonder if that is at the expense of detail…

To each his own and all that but sitting in a hotel room hacking on a computer while on vacation (in Hawaii!) is PTSD trigger-warning territory for me.

Someone with a primary objective of personal wealth enrichment might see him as a pathway to those riches. As he has 'grand' societal goals that require allies and terribly odious …

'Productive' here is practically bursting from all the euphemisms it's swallowed.

I would suggest 'more loosely coupled' perhaps, which in many cases they already are. Students may not want a surly, disinterested professor forced upon them because of a teaching …

So if you're keeping score, that's one party balloon and one of their own drones. The future looks bright!

This was a thing. I worked in an office of 4 within a larger facility back when booting up took some time and we had staggered morning arrivals. The first arrival would power on ev…

I can't wait until this thing exposes the bad opsec, where people have these agents hooked into their other systems and someone tasks their own adversarial agent with probing the o…

Is this the actual text from the bot? Tech-Bro-speak is a relatively recent colloquialization, and if think these agents are based on models trained on a far larger corpus of text,…

I imagine this seems "true" to people who don't consider public transit an option for whatever (class) reason. As others have said, they definitely compete in the same market.

This. The logical response to non- compliance with your country's regulations is simply to block them. 4chan probably won't care, but that's what will keep the bigger players like …

I would think even before that, $68M to avoid discovery that could reveal to everyone what they actually do and how they do it was the no-brainer decision point.

Just saying... you actually don't need JavaScript. I run NoScript, and unlike a lot of sites my HN client opens in-app without the ability to interact with the extension, I could r…

How big are your feet? Because the shoe horn you just used to squeeze your barely veiled disdain for parentting "choices" that aren't like yours into this thread about user-adversa…
