these use cases exist with all forms of cash too

i'd be curious to hear why he thinks ai couldn't help make it easier to discover interesting problems, ie to make the interesting subset less scarce.

they'll eventually come out with a completely new overhauled version of plex that's sub only but your lifetime pass will still be good for "plex classic" which they'll stop supporting

as primarily influencers they make money from your attention, not from promoting or making good software.

Actual real people believe that people are actual, thinking, intelligences, perhaps even with consciousness.

yea the beginning is pretty gory / horrific. it almost made me stop reading but you can't deny the world building is.. unique

imo it's not a great solution. the problem is there is no standard or source of truth for zip code boundaries because they are a usps concept used for mail logistics. zip codes change all the time, are approximations of an area, and generally shouldn't be used for something that requires precision like calculating rates. may be ok to use as a fallback though.

also i hear your point on swe roles and don't disagree

it had created a config file in my home dir and i asked it to move it to the project folder and apparently it thought deleting the entire home dir first was necessary? not sure because after my home folder was gone things started disappearing lol

believe it or not, i had cursor in yolo mode just for fun recently and 3.7 rm -rf'd my home folder :(

Eddy Cue owns Maps too

And unfortunately one not exclusive to OpenAI. Anthropic credits also expire after 1 year.

Also consider the speed of light is also the speed of causality. If there was no such limit it means it would be possible for effects to precede causes which would lead to a very different kind of universe!

I like to use copilot when writing tests. It's not always perfect but makes things less tedious for me.

the way i'm thinking about it: could apple be the size it is today, in terms of market cap and or influence, being strictly ran in "founder mode"? i'm even skeptical steve jobs could have taken it here.

that's not to say the goal should always be to scale or become as big as possible, but it's interesting to think about.

hot take: i find it a little irresponsible he put this out there without properly defining it / expanding on how it should be implemented. i already see people on twitter construing the concept to however they see fit.

though, to be fair he said it would take a year to do so: https://x.com/paulg/status/1830300111232188626?s=46&t=8sSeDI...

I'm not trying to tell anyone what to do.. but these toads (like the Sonoran desert toad) are increasingly becoming endangered due to poaching. It is possible to milk the venom without harming them, but a lot of poachers aren't careful or use the wrong techniques.

I also understand people believe that there is a qualitative difference between the venom and synthetic, but it's the same compound at the end of the day.

Whoa I totally forgot that Soulseek was a thing, thank you! I used to be able to find rare b-sides and live recordings of my favorite bands on it.

he's using dingboard.com to edit his images. i believe the anime girl is one of the default images (or used to be) on a new canvas.

gpt-4o can at least summarize short meetings: https://x.com/gdb/status/1790164084425646481?s=46&t=8sSeDIGv...

Sam Altman talked a little bit about this in his recent appearance on the All-In podcast [0]. I'm paraphrasing, but his vision is that ai assistants in the near term will be like a senior level employee - they'll push back when it makes sense to and not just be sycophants.

I watched part of an interview Saylor gave recently where he said the reason to invest in MSTR over an ETF is increased performance.

It's possible other types of music are sometimes played, but I've never personally seen it. Usually you can see where the VGM comes from scrolling at the top of the stream.

Also, zoasty explains in the pastebin that he had a lot of help setting hoot up, so I don't think the expectation is for others to be able to easily recreate what he did.

A worthy mention is zoasty's (super metroid speed runner and musician) alt twitch stream where hardware rips of video game music are played:

I don't see it mentioned anywhere in the article but there has been some research on the therapeutic benefits of non-hallucinogenic ibogaine analog, tabernathelog (TBG) which is also supposed remove negative cardiovascular side effects.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7874389/

Cost savings was definitely a factor, but this is the key point from the article:

"And yet, until very recently, Lyft had limited control over that navigation experience, which was built using Google Maps. “For our entire existence, we couldn’t fundamentally change that product,” says director of project management Ben Schrom."

I've worked in the mapping space for more than 20 years and I can tell you one of the biggest annoyances with using third party mapping data is that you are beholden to their cadence and tooling for making updates to the map - you have virtually no control over the data. This is a big reason both Google and Apple built their own map.

The benefit of using OSM is that you are provided decent tooling and a relatively streamlined process for making updates. Map data quality is incredibly important, especially for navigation and it's really hard to manage because the map is always changing - it's not a static thing.

Reminded me of this: https://sensebridge.net/projects/northpaw/. Saw this linked on HN somewhere back in 2012 or so.

If you add the following to the end of your prompt it answers sort of correctly: “Think about this step by step and only then produce a solution.”

“One possible valid bound for the timestamp of Event B is a value that is greater than the timestamp of Event C but less than or equal to the maximum possible timestamp. This ensures that Event B happened after Event C but not necessarily after all other events.

Alternatively, we could set a valid bound for the timestamp of Event B as a value that is greater than the maximum possible timestamp but less than or equal to the minimum possible timestamp. This would ensure that Event B happened after all other events but not necessarily before all other events.”

The second solution doesn’t make sense to me.

What got me was him weaving in (2-3 times) self promotion tweets of some tree planting company he funds/founded(?). He basically personally embedded ads into his thread, which is actually kind of smart I suppose, but very confusing as a reader.

I don’t know what OP meant by “steal” but the complicated thing with using OSM data as a mapmaker is that if you “derive” any other data source with it you have to make it available which means (as I understand it) you have to contribute it back to OSM.

If TomTom was planning on conflating OSM data with other sources then in theory it hurts their business model because they will potentially have to make their entire map (or large parts of it) freely available in OSM.

If they can somehow set up clean room conditions and keep all their other data sources physically separated from the OSM data then it might be avoided, but then how do you do the map conflation? And that would certainly impact how quickly they can make updates.

Maybe they came up with some clever way to avoid having to contribute data back to OSM and that’s what OP means by “steal.”
