Since this launch was unmanned how were various events triggered?

Artemis is probably the best evidence moon-landing conspiracists have ever had.

I wish it were clear this was a paid subscription up-front.

Tldr, when your name is 99 Cents Only eventually inflation puts you out of business.

I’m of the opinion that there are backdoors in most of our software and a lot of our hardware. xz just happened to be caught because it was hogging resources.

Seems unlikely that Apple would leave Europe but if they did demand would still exist for their products and would still be filled via US import so I think EU has more to lose.

That’s helpful feedback, thank you!

I came across this site which scrapes and shares job postings. The challenge is finding salary ranges: https://hnhiring.com/

This is awesome. I've been looking for a way to scrape Who's Hiring for my site https://200kjobs.com, thanks for sharing.

Surely we are in an AI bubble not completely unlike the dotcom bubble, right? The promise and potential for AI to be a long-term growth driver exists but the current market euphoria can’t be sustained in the short-term… at least that’s what I’ve told myself every time NVDA jumps and I feel like a loser.

I'm running Chrome on an M2 Mac and Safari of iPhone 15 Pro. I keep everything up to date but it's taking Bitwarden 5-10 seconds each time I try to load a saved password and sync between devices isn't staying up-to-date.

One aspect sometimes overlooked is that the physical device degrades over time. Blocks of memory corrupt, connections erode, humidity or dust slows down cooling mechanisms. We tend to think of computers as either working or not but they can and do break down over time.

There are more listings like that one, some are sold by Amazon. https://amzn.to/41Zf3hS

What are the security trade offs of Thorium?

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, yes I think this is the right direction. Surprised it doesn’t exist as SAAS, I guess demand isn’t there.

This is what I currently do. I was just hoping to automate the process.

I have a PDF problem that I thought was simple but has proven difficult to solve and there is no paid solution I’ve found…

I want to forward an email to an inbox, have the email body converted into a PDF, and then email that attachment to someone all automatically. I’ve tried Make, Zapier, pdf.co, pdftool, and a few other tools but have had no success. Has anyone solved this problem reliably?

The pace that ML seems to be advancing right now is amazing. I don’t believe in the singularity but it’s changing software and then society in ways no one can predict.

I think 2024 is the year we see Python overtake JS in overall popularity.

I never realized how influential King Kong was until I read Console Wars (https://amzn.to/3TnSFws)

The game essentially saved Nintendo of America and introduced some of the most valuable characters of all time.

I think you can blame Google in this case. They are marking email as spam from someone who has gone through all necessary verification steps to confirm he is not a scammer.

Why exactly was Internet Explorer so bad? In hindsight, it looks like a huge missed opportunity for Microsoft.

Side related topic: do you think the growth of ML/AI means Python could "dethrone" JavaScript as the generalist language of choice?

One of the leading theories right now is he was talking with leaders in UAE about an AI hardware/chip project without board’s knowledge.

I hope some of the previous board members make a statement because it’s been almost a week and still nothing really adds up.

“It’s a good idea to keep enough control so that investors can’t fire you (there are a lot of different ways to do this), but beyond that, it’s important to bring in other people and trust them to help you build the company.”

The abrupt nature and accusatory tone of the letter makes it sound like more was going on than disagreement. Why not just say, “the board has made the difficult decision to part ways with Altman”?
