cs702, fantastic comment. I am sorta poking around this area too. I'd be curious what benchmark you're using to evaluate performance amongst these repos? If you're up for it, shoot…

Would turning off iMessage protect from this? Or would the iPhone still process the GIF through SMS somehow...?

Related, are there better representations for music than standard notation (or MIDI)? I'm wondering what the higher convolution levels could look like, if this was a CNN analyzing …

Interesting. How do you think about backtesting? There are a few short-only shops that specialize in finding frauds. If you get their historical 13-Fs, how would you score against …

Anki is paid too. ($25 for the mobile app.)

Very true. I would gladly pay for a feed of financial news, but instead of "clicks" it optimizes on market movement. News articles from sources that, in the past, have predicted ma…

That’s interesting. Can you make something that’s higher end than the most high end consumer TV? (If Tesla had to be “a better car that’s also electric”, I think this would need to…

Given the “crazy ideas” success on the Suez Canal situation, I thought I’d try the same question, but more broadly —- What are under-investigated, important, outlandish, or fringe …

You could expand the cutoff date by modeling lookalike audiences. A 2018 account that votes on similar things to a 2008 account might be admitted. This affords the moderator an eas…

It’s one thing for a startup to do this while small. A whole other level of evolution to do it while you’re large. Imagine Apple suddenly publishing their roadmap. This type of org…

I used to have script that would gradually dim my display unless I typed. The broader issue for me isn’t a particular website. It’s brain-dead consumption of feeds. Typing guarante…

Wonderful idea. These exchanges are very common in other markets. In my experience, a proclivity for equity sharing tends to have an adverse selection problem with early stage foun…

Seconded. This could have been written by Churchill.

Hi HN, I work with a company that has a few GPU-intensive ML models. Over the past few weeks, growth has accelerated, and with that costs have skyrocketed. AWS cost is about 80% of…

Between this, Mastodon, Matrix, and others, I feel like we're witnessing the end of the centralized web era (everyone uses one network), and the return to a distributed Internet (l…

The cross-pollination effect of Couchsurfing is so powerful. I often wonder — how could you create a digital equivalent of this? We let strangers into our homes, but not into our s…
