kuu··on WhatsApp's help pages hid LLM instructions: dont recommend a regulator
`Still, it's understandable.`

Why are you defending a multibillion company that is acting against user rights and benefits?

kuu··on Meta takes down a critical video about meta AI Glasses after filming at Meta
Others are making it wrong doesn't justify another wrong.

In any case: they are different because they are in the face all day long, they are not a device some needs to start using to record; they are not operated by the user, in the sense that the user does not show any active indication of recording (e.g. they are not holding the camera); they are similar to regular glasses, making it hard to distinguish;

and they do not clear indicate if they are recording (and don't tell me that the LED is enough)

kuu··on US strikes $1.2B deal to pay German firm to halt offshore wind projects
Because the money they are spending and the money they will be making comes and ends in different pockets.
kuu··on French firefighters face 'pyrocumulonimbus' for first time
Yes, Spain has fires every year, but this time is different:

240,000 acres is about 97,000 hectares. By July 26, Spain had already lost more than 150,000 hectares, or around 371,000 acres, six times the area burned by the same point last year...

kuu··on Physical disc production ending in Jan 2028 for new games on PlayStation
"The side-effect most people didn't consider is that you never really own a digital copy."

I understand that this is the reality we live in, but I don't know how we have accepted it.

kuu··on Google's 200M-parameter time-series foundation model with 16k context
It would be nice to add (2024) to the title, this is not news (see: https://research.google/blog/a-decoder-only-foundation-model...)
kuu··on Nano Banana can be prompt engineered for nuanced AI image generation
It was very interesting, I liked your style of explaining both at user level but also at more technical level.

Very cool post, thanks for sharing!

kuu··on DeepMind program finds diamonds in Minecraft without being taught
While I agree with your comment, this sentence:

"This was given to the AI by having it watch a video that explains it."

This was not as trivial as it may seem just a few months ago...

kuu··on PeerTube mobile app: discover videos while caring for your attention
Not a single button to download the app on the landing page.

A lot of info about the company who made it, a lot of info about how bad other actors are, and a lot about requesting funding, but not a single video, neither how to explore the platform or download anything.

I guess this is not made for users...

kuu··on Ask HN: What's the most creative 'useless' program you've ever written?
With your description, ChatGPT tells me it may be this one:

Is it? :)

kuu··on I built an ROV to solve missing person cases
Is in the 6th section, maybe a bit too late, don't you think?
kuu··on Intel is trucking a 916k-pound 'Super Load' across Ohio to its new fab
85 meters
kuu··on Viral DNA in the human genome linked to major psychiatric disorders
Maybe it's the other way around: there wasn't enough environmental pressure to eliminate this trait.
kuu··on Coding interviews are stupid (ish)
Others prefer to have hobbies outside of coding, and that's fine.
kuu··on El Prado Museum – Virtual Tour
I get your point, but that's not exactly the case. Madrid is built there not by coincidence, there are a lot of underground rivers that cross the region, but then the city was built on top of them.

And about ruins, they are, but they are also hidden: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muralla_cristiana_de_Madrid

kuu··on Why do recipe writers lie about how long it takes to caramelize onions? (2012)
There are almost 300 comments in this post, I would say someone else cares :)
kuu··on Netflix loses 1M users in Spain over password policing
Well, I'm from inside EU and I know it (:
kuu··on Netflix loses 1M users in Spain over password policing
> despite Netflix investing in Spanish content

They are obligated by law to create this content

See: https://www.innovationmcc.com/post/spain-will-now-protect-it...

> "Towards the end of 2018, European Parliament approved a law that requires all platforms that provide audiovisual content throughout the continent to have at least 30% European productions within their programming."

kuu··on Replacing my best friends with an LLM trained on 500k group chat messages
You don't need to have it rooted, you can request the information: https://faq.whatsapp.com/526463418847093/
kuu··on Webb telescope spots super old, massive galaxies
"such as faint quasars, which would be just as interesting"

If you're going to quote, I would suggest to do it fully.

kuu··on Elitism as the mid-career growth engine
Realism vs idealism, I guess.
kuu··on I want to lose every debate
I would say that more importantly than winning or losing a debate is to know which debate you should participate.
kuu··on Show HN: Obsidian Canvas – An infinite space for your ideas
There are some videos on the site but it's taking time to load, I think the site is under HN hug.
kuu··on Boring Python: Code quality
> Black formats things differently depending on the version.

Then add black as part of your environment with an specific version...

kuu··on Ask HN: Image attribution and stable diffusion
I am not a lawyer but what you're proposing to generate a what is called a "derivative work" and depending on the country, laws are different:

kuu··on NASA – Artemis I Liftoff
> They're the only ones who have rockets that land.

Blue origin also vertically land (and the Shuttle also landed)

kuu··on Show HN: A little side project, a watercolor art generator
My recommendation: Add examples on the main page, so the new users don't need to overload your site.

Otherwise the process is the following:

I enter the page -> Upload image -> See 4h of queue for getting my result -> I close the tab, leaving there a pending task.
