10,000 requests times 0.05 cents (not dollars) = 500 cents = 5 dollars.

The industry/consulting term is "digital twin". Nothing off the shelf, since every plant is different. Even for a single process it gets complicated really fast. You probably want …

For fun, I pasted a few Matt Levine's newsletters into the AI Vetter on the above page. Since it can't fetch the Bloomberg's paged directly, I had to copy the content into Github g…

Ideally you have an MCP server (Model Context Protocol) that talks to your game. It can use existing API if it's exposed - but it's very rare if it's not a game you're developing/i…

It's like watching an ant farm or fish in aquarium: a different kind of entertainment. Could be fun - will the AI model get stuck on the same things I did? How does it overcome obs…

> So imo you have to accept you’ll always be ignorant of most topics and get comfortable with thinking “I don’t know”. Ok but I have to (or rather - I am expected to) vote on those…

If the SaaS provider goes down or decides to discontinue a product, then yeah, ideally I should be able to install it somewhere and self-host it. It might not be easy but should be…

I'd like to highlight a different part of the article: > In general, when I talk to software folks about testing, I'm coming from such a different place that they immediately look …

Then you will have the opposite problem in winter. Sunrises would be 9am-10am for about three months.

I think the OP references Intel ads with Jim Parsons from like a decade ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQWpYQm60P4 There were more of them, including some with other celebrit…

No doubt that computers enabled a lot of automation. We can both agree with that. The context was that technology should evolve to fit the humans [not the other way around]. And if…

I'd argue the opposite. Technology in the past few decades was (is) limited and humans had to adapt to it. We communicate with other humans using voice and three dimensional hand g…

I do and that's why I pipe the output to `head -n 20` or use `LIMIT 20` in SQL. That aside, this is a good script you're running. Thanks.

Where are you moving to?

If the NYT subscription indeed has a tremendous value, surely it can attract and retain the subscribers without resorting to dark patterns in their products.

I moved from stored procedures to dbt. I find it easier to maintain and it helps me with version control, testing, and docs. Plus, since I deal with data pipelines a lot it get oth…

What's the proper way of managing Mac endpoints?

Not sure if you can still read my late reply, but Black has a `--skip-magic-trailing-comma` flag: > By default, Black uses existing trailing commas as an indication that short line…

You don't need to exploit sensors. If a compromised device is connected to the internet (because the vendor app requires it to set up and control), you can use it as a part of botn…

Does this use levels from the original game or some custom ones? The solutions to the original levels should be in the training data, be it blogs, reddit comments, or wikis. Unless…

Does that mean the companies that develop games with heavy microtransactions pay their developers more?

A code formatter like Black can handle that. It's there to enforce a single code style no matter what the contributors use, whether they are human or AI.

The prompt in this study didn't specify what does the Misleading label mean, so the interpretation varies between the models. I mean look at the other responses here from the HN co…

That's a very cool site! I enjoyed the hand-drawn graphs. Your tables remind me of recipes in Modernist Cuisine. They all have ingredients grouped by the procedures together with w…

In any activity you can take shortcuts that makes it easier. It's up to you how many (if any) you want. Take woodworking for example. When I build a kitchen cabinet, I can get lumb…
