capablemonkey··on ChatGPT for Robotics
Reminds me of similar work at Google to take natural language commands e.g. "Put the soda can on the table" and make a LLM write lower level robot code to implement the task. https://code-as-policies.github.io/

Greenhouse Software | Software Engineer | New York NY ONSITE

Software engineer here. We're looking for someone to join my team -- Solutions Engineering. If you have experience building APIs, let's talk!

You'll spend a lot of your time working with our customers and building robust APIs for them to use. It's a Rails shop here, but no experience with Ruby or Rails is necessary. I'd recommend a few years of backend web experience.

capablemonkey··on No more 25¢. No more transaction fees
I work at Dwolla. Just want to say that I personally agree with you that clarity around pricing is important for any open platform. Especially when you're comparing a product or service against competing options, concrete pricing is key.

As a developer hacking on a small project, there isn't any cost to use our network. If you're a merchant accepting payments on our network, we'd like to see you enter a package once your business starts to make several hundred transactions a month, but we don't require it. Most businesses end up wanting more advanced features once their volume goes up. The cost of those premium features will depend on your volume and needs. As we learn more about what works best for our partners, I think we'll be able to provide more pricing information up front.

We appreciate your feedback. Our product team will continue to work on providing clear pricing options.

capablemonkey··on Show HN: Figure out when you closed your MacBook lid
Haha. Yes. I suppose you're right. I work full time and go to school full time so sleep is a luxury and I typically find myself working late nights.

Yes. node-webkit / nw.js is really slick. I love that I can create a desktop app without even a hint of Cocoa or Obj-C on my part. The runtime is like 90mb, yes, but the source itself is 4mb including dependencies. Memory usage is decent at ~18mb

+1. Yup. Sleep is a 98MB wrapper around pmset. :)
