    Any model that is going to be meaningfully useful is going to have the potential for harm too. It's not possible to know enough about chemistry to be useful to a chemist, without a…

    It's not that simple. The odds are always stacked in favor of the hacker. It's like saying, "why not just make a prison that's impossible to escape from". You can make a prison ver…

    China can produce chips at "7nm", that's more like 8-10 years behind. My M1 macbook pro is 6 years old, and that chip was made using a "5nm" process. The advanced US chips are now …

    Neither one is illegal though. Scraping the internet is as legal as surfing the internet. And what Anthropic calls "distillation attacks" is really just paying for and using the se…

    Ok, and when there's a power outage at my house as happens quite often in CA? When my internet goes out about once a week and I'm not home to reset it, what then? Just tell the cus…

    I'm not asking them to give me something for nothing. The whole point is to get me hooked and spending so that when those credits run out or a year is up, I'll have to start paying…

    Appears so. I was able to start CPU instances.

    Seems like a bait and switch when instead of saying "We can give you that SKU in this data center" they say "We can give you that SKU if you use a paid plan". You must be using som…

    I'm just finshing up my first macOS app. I went with SwiftUI because I was new and didn't want to learn an "old" tech. The reality is outside of very basic stuff, SwiftUI is not ca…

    Google is progressively getting worse, month by month. I think Bing will overtake them if they just stand still, but it would be a while. At this rate, I think Google could drop th…

    If Bing is smart I think there's a real chance to dethrone Google in the coming years. In the past 3 years, Google has gone from damn near perfect, to damn near useless. It no long…

    Every piece of art is a collage of other pieces of art. Everyone is inspired by other, and copies others, whether they admit it or not. You can't write a song or paint a picture an…

    Well, and here enlies the crux of the issue, can a non-human own or break copy right. You know not too long ago a guy gave a camera to a monkey, the photo that money took became po…

    I imagine similar to the use cases for Erlang. Erlang can be a polarizing language, but what it's designed to do, it does exceptionally well, in fact, maybe the best. And that's no…

    Well then, let us all break out our extra small violins, and play a somber tune, for the person in their late 30s who still has to work 20 hours a week.

    I agree. That’s why my focus is not on being native sounding but conveying meaning. If I say “I want to buy a seal.” The most native sounding translation that says “I want to buy a…

    I could be interested. My app is currently translation based(word alignments, sense disambiguating) but had planned to venture into assisted writing for people who need translation…

    Ask HN: What things that tech recruiters do, annoy you the most as an engineer?

    For me it's definitely their desire for everything to be a call. If I'm even remotely interested, that'll be a 30mins call to setup. I really only have 3 basic things I want to kno…

    I think it could be heaps clearer. To almost everyone outside of a small slice of people in the world, there's a bit difference between "The wallet was hacked and funds were succes…

    Then perhaps I'm naive about how all this works. But to me there's a difference between accessing keys, and accessing funds. Are these the exact keys, in the exact format, that som…
