accidbuddy··on Everyone knows your location: tracking myself down through in-app ads
The best part of every post in the ycombinator is the comments. Always learn a lot.

I think another big problem is pharmacies. The amount of data shared with health insurance companies must be huge.

accidbuddy··on Review of Mullvad VPN
Is there any serious website that reviews (rank list) these VPNs? I say this because it is always difficult to find information that is not sponsored on the internet. In fact, I've always heard that Mullvad is one of the best, even supporting P2P

Available on ChatGPT Plus signature or only using the API?
accidbuddy··on SpaceX Pulls Employees from Brazil, Discourages Travel There
There are many differences, starting with the public image. As far as I know, in the US, the Supreme Court is seen as people with ethics and known legal knowledge. In Brazil, they are political appointees. Furthermore, for many, they go beyond the limits and sometimes legislate.
accidbuddy··on Ask HN: GitHub Copilot Alternatives
Interesting. Claude has (at least in my tests) best results than GitHub Copilot. About using in IntelliJ, I read some people talking about changing the Java Boot. Do you know what configuration I need to change?

"Keep in mind you currently may have to change your Java Boot Runtime for the IDE to make it work."

accidbuddy··on Ask HN: GitHub Copilot Alternatives
Seems to be interesting. Unfortunately, I can't run anything local with reasonable time response. By the way, I need to search again about this, maybe de Llama local runs better now with recent improvements on the model.

Thanks by sharing your experience.

accidbuddy··on OTranscribe: A free and open tool for transcribing audio interviews
Anyone knows one with transcription and translate in real time?

Nowadays, I use libretranslate/libretranslate and pluja/whishper to do this, but not at real time.

accidbuddy··on Introducing Copilot+ PCs
I agree, and it's strange to see 'Copilot' everywhere. By the way, does anyone know how the development/update of GitHub Copilot is going? I tried to look for a blog from the engineering team or something similar, but I can't find anything.
accidbuddy··on Web Scraping in Python – The Complete Guide
Some months ago, I had problems with captcha. I tried to write an application to access many drugstores and compare the price, but captcha with login system fail the mission.

Do you have any piece of advice for me?

accidbuddy··on Whisper: Nvidia RTX 4090 vs. M1 Pro with MLX
Thanks. I'll try.
accidbuddy··on Whisper: Nvidia RTX 4090 vs. M1 Pro with MLX
About whisper, anyone knows a project (github) about using the model in real-time? I'm studying a new language, and it appears to be a good chance to use and learning pronunciation vs. word.
accidbuddy··on ChangeDetection, monitor any website change
As far as I know, doesn't work to Amazon.br (Brazil). Thanks by the reply.

Anyone has been utilized this tool to monitoring Amazon Prices (with login)?
