cinntaile··on Nvidia Kicks Off the Next Generation of AI with Rubin
I find all the blurbs weird, do they usually include that? If not, why now? It doesn't look professional.
cinntaile··on .io prices doubled in 5 years
I was aware of that, there was some controversy regarding that TLD a while back.

I consider it an exotic one though, just like .tv (which is also a country TLD) or .ai (not a country TLD).

Isn't that the whole point of these exotic TLDs?
cinntaile··on Few Shall Return is now gen-AI free
They should call it Gen AI-light!
cinntaile··on Few Shall Return is now gen-AI free
LLMs are of course generative AI. If they use that then their claim is not correct.
cinntaile··on RevisionDojo, a YC startup, is running astroturfing campaigns targeting kids?
That's true, I meant it doesn't help much as a cheat sheet if you didn't put in the work to make it yourself.
cinntaile··on Welcome to Gas Town
Yeah, the assumption is that it eventually will be the same or better. It's basically how this software was created, he seems to have made a few different versions before he was happy.
cinntaile··on Welcome to Gas Town
Tech debt isn't really the same anymore if it's relatively simple to regenerate an entire codebase from scratch.

A cheat sheet could be a piece of paper you're allowed to bring to an exam. To make a proper cheat sheet you have to understand the material you're working with anyway so it usually doesn't help you.
cinntaile··on Decorative Cryptography
It's just a link to a blogpost, like all the other links on HN. None are treated any special way. Why would content that was on lobsters first be treated differently.
cinntaile··on Why users cannot create Issues directly
I wasn't being sarcastic. This is not a case of not being capable of doing something, it's about not knowing the functionality exists. Cropping is very simple. I assumed the GP didn't know about it either or he would have taught his mom already.

Could the manufacturer solve this in a better way? Probably but that won't solve the issue the customer has now.

cinntaile··on Total monthly number of StackOverflow questions over time
You can prompt the LLM to not just give you the answer. Possibly even ask it to consider the problem from different angles but that may not be helpful when you don't know what you don't know.
cinntaile··on The Most Popular Blogs of Hacker News in 2025
I think that account was compromised a while back, it looks fine now again. I don't get the point though, why even bother making a repost bot. It's not like they gain anything from it.

Not that I have anything against the top bloggers, but I do hope the 2026 list will differ from the 2025 list. I'm here to read about varied tech content!

cinntaile··on Why users cannot create Issues directly
Most (all?) photo apps include a crop function, allowing your mom just crop out everything else.
cinntaile··on Denmark becomes first country in world to end letter delivery
It's not clear to me what service is not being provided? Citizens still receive their mail.
cinntaile··on Denmark becomes first country in world to end letter delivery
It's not privately owned so it's not really a private company even if it has to abide by the same laws. I don't get why you accuse me of rhetorical framing, it's what the ownership situation looks like.
cinntaile··on Denmark becomes first country in world to end letter delivery
Honestly the post office was probably very happy to get this off their hands. They have much better margins on packages.
cinntaile··on Denmark becomes first country in world to end letter delivery
It's legally structured as a private company, but it's really not. It's 60% owned by the Swedish state and 40% by the Danish state.
cinntaile··on Denmark becomes first country in world to end letter delivery
It's no longer the state-owned post office that delivers it, that's all. It's not like Denmark all of a sudden stops with physical letters...
cinntaile··on HSBC blocks its app due to F-Droid-installed Bitwarden
You found a job after you moved but before you could register for all kinds of services I presume. Once you have a job, everything becomes "easy".
cinntaile··on The rise of industrial software
I still don't know what better means in this context, so I don't understand what your comment adds to the discussion?
cinntaile··on The rise of industrial software
Better along which dimensions? Most luxury cars are made the artisanal way.
cinntaile··on HSBC blocks its app due to F-Droid-installed Bitwarden
It's not just registering. This assumes you had a job contract lined up or sufficient funds to support yourself.
cinntaile··on Toll roads are spreading in America
I don't know why you assume this is about me? Participating in traffic is better if it's predictable, people passing on the right break that assumption.
cinntaile··on I migrated to an almost all-EU stack and saved 500€ per year
I don't think a $10 budget will suffice.
cinntaile··on Toll roads are spreading in America
Idiots that try to pass on the right should get their driver's license revoked immediately.
cinntaile··on [dead]
Why are you posting AI slop?
cinntaile··on Liberating Bluetooth on the ESP32
Feed it to an LLM summarizer.
cinntaile··on NIST was 5 μs off UTC after last week's power cut
It's not like foreign adversaries care.
cinntaile··on Reflections on AI at the End of 2025
Evaluate on merit indeed and that is not what is happening. The parent I replied to used an authoritative argument that is not based on (relevant) merit.
