    Given how many “Web3” platforms and content creators this law would nuke out of existence, I’n genuinely surprised there isn’t more $$$ pushback. Lobbying isn’t exclusive to superv…

    This is honestly awesome, copy editing is such a pain point that we schedule weekly 3 hour blocks to go through all changes live. This would greatly streamline our workflow. Signed…

    The main issue with deploying these systems right now is the technical overhead to develop them out. Existing solutions are either paid and require you to share your valuable data,…

    I’ve been saying this for years, language models are the ML equivalent of the billionaire space race, it’s just a bunch of orgs with unlimited funding spending millions of dollars …

    If they implemented SSO with Office365/AAD it would be a stellar alternative. The GSuite dependency for SSO is damning

    This is really cool but I can’t say I’m a fan of Zapium given it would move to a commercial license in the future. If you have to ship CEF anyhow, what is the performance advantage…

    The HN collab I never knew I needed, although I doubt the whole issue could fit on there. Maybe the repo name, issue name and issue number instead?

    Yeah my first thought was, well you could lay out the timestamp in a way that supports lexicographical sorting, and then realized they had already done so. No reason this shouldn’t…

    I find this a bit disingenuous. TikTok videos have by far the highest reach of all social media due to their format and the way the for you page works. Moreover it rewards influenc…

    Suicide rates are tricky since mental health can have long lasting issues and the societal changes from lockdown will have even longer term effects. How do you attribute a suicide …

    They have their own pixel that presumably helps them match users to visitors; also most sites have a Facebook like button somewhere. The FB app ID is also one of the most common me…

    GPT-J is 6B and comes pretty close. Also practically I haven’t noticed a difference. Keep in mind there are also closed source alternatives: for example, AI21’s Jurassic-1 models a…

    This is cool but I wish they updated the rest of their docs so the platform was more usable. I’m sure under the hood things make sense and integrate well with each other and other …

    This seems like a weird move given that developer tools seldom do well on public markets. I can’t help but think that staying private would do more to maintain their community & pr…

    I shouldn't need to read the code extremely closely or repeatedly to have to figure out what it does when the while loop does it clearly (and in a bounded way that you can literall…

    While I agree with the ternary linting, the while loop piece makes absolutely no sense. There are absolutely many, many use cases of while loops; in fact, many dynamic programming …

    Yeah! So I set this up locally for email and a self hosted calendar, but I generally dislike modern calendar interfaces and am looking to experiment in building my own out (probabl…
