nasaeclipseon Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2024)

I used to live in Taiwan. 80,000 NTD is about 2500 USD, so most likely that's a monthly salary. Pretty good salary if you live outside of Taipei, and doable within the city.

nasaeclipseon I Am Tired of AI

At some point, I wonder if we will go more analog again. How do we know if a book was written by a human? Simple, he used a typewriter or wrote it by hand!

Photos? Real film.

Video.... real film again lol.

I think that may actually happen at some point.

nasaeclipseon Why the U.S. can't build icebreaking ships

As others have said, a big part of the problem is the need to eat.

I have a family. I work for a company that does stuff for the government.

I'd _rather_ be building and working on my cycling training app all day every day, but that doesn't make me any money, and probably never will.

All the majority of us can hope for is to build something that helps people and society, and hope that does enough good to counteract the morally grey in this world.

Nothing is ever black and white.

nasaeclipseon Euro banks worry AI will increase their dependence on US big tech

Can someone explain like I'm 5 as to why AI is so important in banking? In my experience, AI seems kinda... dumb. Why implement it in the financial sector? I understand the deal with bidding for stocks and stuff, but that's been around for at least a few years now, if not longer.

What is it that the EU is afraid of here? Why is AI so important?
