That‘s not funny at all.

I accidentially hit the reply button on a reply of the post I was actually referring to. Parent was about Strigeus. Besides: Since every mid-sized LLM appears to pass the test I’m not even trying anymore.

I apologize if that was wrong, but this article on wired.com mentions that he is “confined to a wheelchair by a rare muscular disease”. https://www.wired.com/2010/12/mf-spotify/

Background: He is wheelchair-bound.

Thanks for the insights. It seems to me that this interesting explanation focuses primarily on the tactical level. On a strategic level: What drives you? That is, what criteria do you use to apply the thought process you described above?

Reading through the comments, it seems a significant factor in success is perceived to be the availability of free time. This aligns with my own observations. However, as a father of young children, I wonder if there are examples of life plans that successfully combine family with exciting, successful software projects. I can only think of outstanding programmers who, during the prime of their creative work, were (apparently) free, unattached individuals without (forgive my blunt assumption) significant family ties. Am I mistaken? Are there counterexamples? In my experience, the most relevant skill one develops (and must develop) as a father is discipline and time management. Surely, that has to count for something, right?

From Daniel's contact page:

> Just don’t send me private emails about the open source projects I participate in – unless you want to pay for commercial and private support!

So it's support basically, I suppose.

> while curl is my hobby, I also work on curl as a full-time job. It is a business and I serve and communicate with many customers on a daily basis.

While it's not my business, I still wonder how this business looks like. Is curl sponsored? If so, is this a common thing for foundational tools alike?

Looks interesting, but I see no way to filter local models. There are only listings of popular SaaS models. Could be because I’m on mobile?

Which is flagged for good reasons…

I'm not a lawyer, but I guess that would be zero.

The maximum in absolute numbers would be ~40B USD or ~80B USD for repeated violations, as I read it.

afaict that was serious

For every other non-native speaker like me, lmgtfu: NIMBY (/ˈnɪmbi/, or nimby), an acronym for the phrase "not in my back yard", is a characterization of opposition by residents to proposed infrastructure developments in their local area, as well as support for strict land use regulations.

Hey over there. I’m very much grateful for the privilege of this boring job, which is not 100% of my job, but a huge part of it. Grateful because it allows me to feed a family of four. I’m sure in your Musk’esque utopia without boring work is place enough for all mankind. But please, don’t forget to draft a bridge that will bring us all over there and not just a bunch of filthy rich Silicon Valley assholes. Because that wouldn’t be a utopia. Thank you.

Only wrong answers please.

Thanks!

Pricing doesn't seem to be a topic of interest on Mistral's public pages. I feel I'm missing the point somehow, because "what does it cost" was my first question.

Hey, thanks for the input. About the references ("Project X (cont.)"): Coming from a digital context this feels super awkward, naturally. But I come to believe that this might actually be supportive when it comes to navigating physical sheets. It might help to shape your spatial model.

I’ve been intrigued by taking notes on paper often before. Every attempt has failed because of the lack of proper system for organization of my notes. For instance, I have two topics I have to take notes for. Now I have to start planning how much space I have to reserve for the first note. Otherwise I have to continue the note after the second note, which is kind of confusing. Are the handwriting folks among you using a particularly clever organizational system or is this just something you live with and even appreciate?

I wouldn't categorize Hotwire as a well-established technology simply because it's included with Rails. Its prominence isn't solidified even with support from notable figures – as all tech trends have their advocates. In my perspective, it's somewhat analogous to htmx: The cool kids are using it for smaller, manageable use cases, but it's far apart, like magnitudes, from the adoption React has.

Nothing, enjoy.

I trust they would have mentioned that if they had it. "4K TV resolution" is the best they could say, so in turn you can expect the minimum you could possibly squeeze out of that statement.

Well, looks like we'll have to do without the extended LOTR edition...

For me a lot has to do with setting and impulse. I‘ll take a week off from work and lock myself into a hotel with a spa. The weeks before I spend curating a learning/reading list (which is mostly a reading list plus a definition of the sessions goals) and hesitate to read any of it early on. This keeps up a certain tension while collecting material (after a couple of days most people me included tend to start looking for new adventures otherwise). However I passively start to think about the topic and every time something new comes to my attention it’s sorted to the list.

Also, recently sama indicated chatgpt would make a little money (since the context of this statement is how the hell it could be profitable I assume he talked about profit). https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34992606

Trivia: I just noticed that sama left the very first comment on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1

Don’t now about the DoD, but one of the board members of the nonprofit is Will Hurd, who appears to have had a 9 year career in the CIA before turning to politics. No hard evidence of anything of course, but enough to raise an eyebrow imho.

According to Reuters [1] in 2022 they projected $200 million revenue in 2023 and $1 billion revenue in 2024.

In 2019 they Planned to spend the then 1 bn funding within the next 5 years or so.

So I suppose they’re not far away from net zero at least.
