Obertr··on Rewind vs. Tab (A16Z vs. Focused Team)
I found it very fascinating the whole story about how Rewind backed by a16z gets suddenly hurt by a young entrepreneur. Hurt so deep they release not ready product to the market just to capture it. Whole story is about wearable devices.

I really wonder how do those frameworks creators earn for living? And why are there so many even if there are competitors like next.js who obviously hold the market

Hi HN, In my recent post I discuss how we can democratize data science by making it as accessible as a game. During a meeting with Sam Altman in Munich, I learned that OpenAI's growth is hindered by a need for more human talent. This inspired me to rethink how we interact with data.

I'm developing a prototype that uses ChatGPT technology, enabling users to explore data as if playing a text-based adventure game.

If this idea resonates with you, or you're interested in collaboration, reach out to me on Twitter @Karmedge.

Cheers, Robert

I may sound critical. But how do you plan to compete with millions of other services doing exactly the same? first which came to my mind: pdf.ai

Obertr··on Ask HN: What productivity tools do you use?
I have just started using https://www.sunsama.com/ and it feels super great.

I have adhd and it helps me to stay on the point with my weekly and daily plans. its pretty steep learning curve for first few days. One of the key features for me were:

- automatically schedule task for the day to the empty slot ( like motion or reclaim)

- weekly objectives. I later connect it with each one of my tasks and see how I moved on my goals during review session

how would you argue the fact that you don't develop addiction to this stuff?

Tradeoff is clear for me.

You are using 8.4.3 and you are building on top of it. have you checked the terms & conditions?

OpenSearch is an open source alternative

Obertr··on Ask HN: How would you refactor a big project in 2023?
React or Angular for the frontend, and Node.js for the backend. These technologies are popular and widely used, making it easier to find developers with experience in them.

For the database, I would recommend using a flexible, scalable NoSQL database such as MongoDB or Cassandra.

For the CMS, I would recommend using a headless CMS such as Strapi, which allows for more independence in terms of adding fields to the database and displaying them on the frontend

Obertr··on Ask HN: Do humans overestimate ChatGPT because of our brains?
> not an actual brain so it can't really know anything

I think the thing which distinguishes it from real brain is that brain receives true feedback. like if you said that 2+2=5 and then in the next equations something doesn't work you get negative feedback and you return to 2+2=

I actually wonder if they will create this feature in openai. checking some statement for it's correctness.

Obertr··on Ask HN: Do humans overestimate ChatGPT because of our brains?
Our brain learned language from our experiences. What others told us and what we told to ourselves.

if you think about it, ChatGPT was told a lot of stuff. The system though is not as complex as brain. But even with this simplicity + a lot of data, it is able to match our super complex brain + experiences in different answers.

and if we change <simplicity + a lot of data> to <complexity + a lot of data> it will blow up to the levels we don't understand.

we will only notice the representation we understand, the tip of the iceberg.

My answer is no.

Obertr··on Ask HN: Strategies for working with engineers that are too smart?
this is their job to be this way. this is how they got to the skills they have.

Only thing you can do is accept it, they are not going to change. Nobody does, people get lazy with age and experience:)

Simple thing which worked in my companies is saying: <Hey this is cool, though we have another thing in the priority right now, can you hop on it and we can discuss your complexed system after it> and this <after> never came, because usually it is intentional idea to write something complex.

Obertr··on OpenAI starts testing ChatGPT premium
maybe in future teachers are going to be a help to use ChatGPT. And the curriculum will be only <suggestions> which you must follow to explore the subject on your own. and at the end of the lecture you just share what is the most interesting finding you have dig up. and which experiments you can perform using that knowledge. and collaborate with others who had the same <search graph> (read interests) in this field like you.
Obertr··on OpenAI starts testing ChatGPT premium
I believe this is going to transform the way people learn. Instead of learning in a structured they are going to learn exactly what they need.

You don't need to know about physics molecules until you face a task related to it. And ChatGPT can direct you to learn more about it.

I am in my bachelor's right now and I see how I can skip a lot of knowledge regarding some low-level computer science skills until I really need them. And at the moment if I can't go further without learning how to effectively optimize ML algorithms using CPP I will hear from ChatGPT that I need to go that way. Otherwise: skip. It is not good enough to provide a whole curriculum for sure. But it is sufficient to get directions to which parts I need to learn.

The education is going to be transformed into "tree" | "unstructured" | "NoSQL" instead of a clumsy set of blocks everybody needs to go through.

This is my opinion

Obertr··on Show HN: Obsidian Canvas – An infinite space for your ideas
It is ideal. I love it!
Obertr··on Ask HN: Where can I discuss random ideas?
You can go offline to meetups and get to know many people. and because you will probably never see them again you can discuss with them random stupid ideas:)
Obertr··on Show HN: Flurri – Build meaningful connections with your co-workers
nice idea. but I think that it will not work out. because either whole company uses it or no one. And it will be hard to take over every one. I guess there are a lot of similar solution out there and lots of them never made any money.
