Last line of your comment is what I was thinking the entire time. Another layer of abstraction between our minds and our wallets.

Re: overlap with other agency's responsibility

So you would prefer that only one agency speak with one voice on a subject? Sounds very counter to the "multiple perspectives revealing aspects of the truth" principle you espoused. In practice, government agencies often have disagreements in areas of overlap and hash it out before making a public recommendation, or settling on a course of action.

It comes down to insurance and salvage titles mostly. In PA, the vehicle I have experience with was valued by insurance at $11.5k, minus a $500 deductible, so $11k. That value determination was made by the insurance company by market factors, which is why market value comes into play. Looking around at comparable used vehicles of same make, model, year, mileage, I found that to be fair price.

The cost to repair from multiple shops within transportable distance (important consideration as I'm sure someone somewhere could have done it for less) was $16k. To get it to an ugly but functional state was about $10k, which would have to be paid out of pocket.

Even if repaired to "roadworthy" condition, it would need to be reinspected and if deemed to be roadworthy would hold a salvage title, meaning insurance would go through the roof, my liability coverage would be dropped, and the car could not be resold. If not deemed roadworthy, more cost.

Needless to say, I considered the car totaled and used the $11k for a down payment towards another Honda.

I think he means that the cost to repair exceeded the market value of the car. As a recent victim of something similar with an 09 Accord, I feel the pain. Was the perfect car.

Sorry, I meant Sonnet 3.7 to Sonnet 4.0.

They're bringing up the phone release to a late August unveil and shipping this year, and the Material Expressive update will ship after that, so it seems a big one time shift to attempt to time it with hardware.

I liked the unveils of the confectionary themed Androids on the campus!

Was between submitting this and the link I did, but opted for the latter because the redesign is coming later. Thanks for adding this!

Yeah I think this is being lost in this rollout (and a little bit in these comments). Expressive is in the next update, since this year is a big hike up in the calendar for phone release.

Looking at you Anthropic. 4.0 markedly different from 3.7 in my experience.

Clarifying that this is NOT my work, just one I found on r/python that I thought was really interesting, and I wanted to maintain title clarity.

I got the warning when I shared, but I think it's ostensibly a security/privacy measure that users can toggle on and off.

Anyways, here's a more direct source that should be publicly accessible, the prior was my first encounter with it.

This proclamation and his desire to reopen Alcatraz may be linked to the fact that PBS in Palm Beach aired "Escape from Alcatraz" last night. Presumably the tariffs on foreign movies came from his annoyance at channel surfing.

I also started by using APIs directly, but I've found that Google's AI Studio offers a good mix of the chatbot webapps and system prompt tweakability.

Wow, I should have clicked through his site more, didn't know he was an author! That's what I get for HN'ing at work.

I love this about RSS too, but I think the internet has generally trained us to be afraid of ephemerality and preyed upon FOMO. The desire for ephemerality has led to permanent platforms subsuming the idea of controlled ephemerality, like IG stories and status messages. Plus, it seems like the level of context can be controlled by the creator, like a space for permanent links on the board vs a series of rambles that get wiped away daily. The narrative explanation of the protocol seemed to dive into this a bit more.

I found the narrative explanation of this protocol really beautifully written.

This might be a great way for them to strengthen their model through federated learning.

I miss Meebo.

I have only just relented to buying B6+ softcover notebooks for the slightly more room and longer form writing, but the hPDA served me very well for 15 years. Shuffling cards to bring them to the fore has become such an ingrained productivity trigger for task switching over the years.

It felt familiar but yes I totally forgot about this! I used gingko for the trial period years and years ago because I was looking for a lighter Scrivener alternative.

Still playing around with it but I have to say, I absolutely adore the side-scrolling feature!

This looks like a great project and something that could be adapted into what I've been looking for unfruitfully (an OSS/self-hosted and cross platform version of Noteplan 3 for family use). Not expecting too much movement on your part into the crowded task management space but the screenshots and examples gave me the same feeling.

Signed up for early access and looking forward to it!

Comment history certainly living up to your name.

I see a lot of this sentiment around from tech people, and the underlying assumption is usually "if the government does it, it must be legal" and that is a really dangerous deductive baseline to operate from, regardless of your politics.

Really hoping for support for an AMD Radeon Pro W5700 I have kicking around.

It spun up the fans on my Xeon workstation too lol

Agree with everything you have said in this thread, just want to also draw attention to the fact that there are 2400 fewer firefighters in California because California has rightfully reduced the amount of inmate firefighters. I don't know whether they were counted on for these emergency situations.
