Found the Googler.

Demis Hassabis chimed in on that thread and called it what it is: clickbait.

This reasoning never made sense to me. What the hell are these kids' parents doing and why is this something that needs to inconvenience everyone else? If lazy parents don't want t…

Between the two zip files, these files have had their content changed: VOL00001/IMAGES/0001/EFTA00000160.pdf VOL00001/IMAGES/0001/EFTA00000177.pdf VOL00001/IMAGES/0001/EFTA00000214…

I can't believe people are paying these crazy amounts for what is basically a fleet of firewalls. What is the difficulty in running VMs with nftables rules?

Google sat on this technology for years and didn't release their early chatbots to the public for this reason. The problem is that OpenAI opened Pandora's box and recklessly leaned…

Jellyfin isn’t meant to be some highly available distributed system, so of course this happens when you try to operate it like one. The typical user is not someone trying to run it…

Are you an actual bot? 4-month-old account, 0 karma, and that's not even what the article was about. NASA Goddard is being illegally dismantled during the shutdown. The events/time…

This didn't work for me after importing.

I read this comment, went back to the article, and then came back to this comment. I have no idea what niche political agenda you're talking about- the message of the article is ba…

So what? People drinking less alcohol is something we should strive for, but I don't see the problem with taxing it and using the income to fund schools. Yes, if people drink less …

I worked at Amazon in 2021 and rage-quit after 9 months. The sign-on bonus I received was paid out monthly, so I didn't have to pay anything back. If it's large enough, they pay it…

IIRC they pay it out monthly if the bonus is large enough.

I don't think anyone can assume that every comment on HN comes from a real human anymore. This law comes from the same nation that gave us Cambridge Analytica. HN is a large enough…

Isn't this just RSS?

> Presumably, if that data is so useful, why dont all of these companies lining up to pay the users? Because users are lining up to give away their data.

We don't know! But we also can't feasibly test for something like that.

You can't make an open source HDMI 2.1 driver: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/02/hdmi-forum-to-amd-no...

How is this better than configuring an iptables redirection?

This is an advertisement and doesn't have much substance.

I'm familiar with the "modern load balancing" take. Modern load balancers, like you'd find in any cloud vendor or OSS project like envoy/nginx/haproxy, learn about the endpoints it…

I can write these things, and I assume it will be necessary for anything someone pays for, but I'm mainly just asking a question so I can learn about how people would monetize thes…

I didn't mean to imply that this is a problem with arbitrary machines that have GPUs. There are specific kinds of applications that use GPUs and because of how they work have hard …

From what I've seen, there's usually some hard requirement that a single instance of the application can handle N in-flight requests. This is fine when you have a single load balan…
