blinded··on Plex adding unskippable ads before and during movies playing off home server
Dude are they trying to get dupped like ArtCraft with Photoshop?
blinded··on Discord Just Couldn't Resist... [video]
Its a good product for voice and video chat with friends when gaming. But holy is it bad at chat, the threads ux is weak as shit and the age verification stuff is just odd.

Not a fan of the gambling stuff either.

spec driven dev with good search is the only way I have been able to get consistently good output from a cheaper model
blinded··on You are a 1000x maker, and you can't think of how to make your stack 10x better?
hard agree.
blinded··on Nice Play Anthropic
Its great for sure, if you have the hw to run it! If not you're left spinning up GPU instance (which I do!) but for the average bear they just something that works!
blinded··on Automattic has a new board after failed attempt to put CEO on leave
Can't image working there, between this drama and the wordpress tiff last year.

There are way more than 8 customers.
blinded··on Many guys are bad at messaging their friends–and it might be making them lonely
I have sooo many responsibilities and projects. I often simply don't schedule that type of time.

blinded··on Just Bury Your Trash
I wasn't disagreeing with the article, simply saying that it still didn't make me feel good.
blinded··on Just Bury Your Trash
Dropped some stuff off at a landfill a few weeks ago. Place was a mess, made me feel like a dirty human.
blinded··on Amazon just tripled its order of Nvidia chips over 'surging demand'
Ed Zitron will still find something negative to say.

Fair!
blinded··on Fast access to Trump's 'Truth Social' posts goes on sale for $100k per month
FOIA request his posts daily?
blinded··on Ask HN: When did we go from agentic loops to graphs?
Its a fast moving space. Just getting a firm grasp on one pattern should be a starting point for anyone (past basic prompting). For example I just showed a coworker plan and goal style workflows this week.

Its progress, but IMO its not worth workflow jumping until you've got existing purchase on a working flow.

blinded··on Superlogical
No remote jobs, bummer!
blinded··on Corporate America Has Suddenly Decided to Stop Blowing Money on AI
It does take a bit of tokens and some thought to get a workflow that produces output in a way that works for the user. Simple youtube "ai workflows" and you will be inundated with options.
blinded··on Agentic AI Workflows and the Future of Streaming Ad Tech
Ya thought about this last weekend. Image a world where youtube knows it you watching and the ad you get is 100% ai generated to you. Like some future world where you're using product x and how fun it would be if you bought it.
blinded··on The AI Bubble Is No Ordinary Bubble
Silly AI videos and just plain odd datacenter zoning/planning aside, the tech is super useful.
blinded··on Proposed bill could make New York the first U.S. state with universal healthcare
With the current state deficit?
blinded··on New York becomes the first state to impose a data center moratorium
Can they build a nuclear power plant or some housing instead?
blinded··on Ask HN: How do you use LLMs for private discussions?
Hey sure.

It depends, but usually spin up an h100 on lambda.ai or coreweave. They have capacity and their UIs/APIs are nice. I spin it up for an hour or two, believe it was 6~ dollars an hour.

Once the gpu instance is up, you need to run vllm and a model, ie https://docs.lambda.ai/education/large-language-models/deplo....

Then you can connect your pi.dev, openwebui, etc etc to vllm and interact with it like normal.

blinded··on Ask HN: How do you use LLMs for private discussions?
I spin up a gpu instance in a cloud, run my model via vllm, connect to it via an ssh tunnel. done.
blinded··on Surgeons face higher infertility rates. UC may make it even harder to have kids
SO and friends are in the industry. I will never understand why they simply don't train and accept more Doctors. If they can have 1 person working 80 hours, they can have 2 working 40, or better yet 3 and see more patients and reduce wait times.

Yes there is a cost to training Doctors but you can't tell me its worth the burnout rate?

blinded··on Intelligence Is Free, Now What? Data Systems For, Of, and by Agents
its not free, tokens are not free.
blinded··on Ask HN: Are you guys happy with existing social networkin apps?
I think unless you were to 100% ban "influencer" crap and ads, which is where you'd have to go to make money or compete, its a waste of time.
