sourcecodeplz··on Neural Networks: Zero to Hero
I am at graphwiz now and it is getting better and better.

Also using ChatGTP to ask questions where I don't get something.

Wow what a time we live in to learn things.

sourcecodeplz··on Neural Networks: Zero to Hero
This is really cool and I am so glad my math teacher was a hard ball and I still remember some Calculus.

edit: Python really was/is made for this numbers/calculation/visualization thing. Kinda kicking myself now for not investing more in it and sticking with PHP, although PHP has its merits when building different things, Python is a beast with numbers.

sourcecodeplz··on Our Approach to AI Safety
> Our large language models are trained on a broad corpus of text that includes publicly available, licensed content

I wonder how they licensed all those websites that had no license information, making them by default copyrighted.

sourcecodeplz··on CAN Injection: Keyless car theft
You could use a basic flat-head screwdriver for both the door and ignition ... Unreal really
sourcecodeplz··on Using Wake on LAN (WOL) Across the Internet (2010)
There was also a time where seconds after installing Windows XP and plugging the Ethernet, your PC would get infected. No browsing, no nothing.
sourcecodeplz··on Using Wake on LAN (WOL) Across the Internet (2010)
Damn, wake on LAN, the memories. Used to disable this all the time back in the early 2000s when everyone was scanning ports.
sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: What questions do LMMs fail with?
Nice. Thank you for this insight.
sourcecodeplz··on Twitter’s New API Plans Will Devastate Public Interest Research
The company has massive debt. They have to make some serious bank somehow... with so many advertisers pulling out.
sourcecodeplz··on Amazon’s Drone Delivery Dream Is Crashing
That zipline company seems quite legit. There was a youtube video about it just 2 days ago.
sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?
I use wired mice because I like the feeling more. Difficult to explain.
sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?
A compact radio.
sourcecodeplz··on Apple tells some retail employees to reapply for their jobs or be laid off
Well at least they are not laying off thousands and instead give them other jobs.
sourcecodeplz··on Launch HN: OutSail (YC W23) – Wingsails to reduce cargo ship fuel consumption
It's never gonna work for a multitude of reasons like you said. Usually I'm not pessimistic but this really seems like: we have an idea, make a video, post it on a site, ask questions later.
sourcecodeplz··on SpaceX based 4G/5G coverage coming to New Zealand
Better than nothing?
sourcecodeplz··on Framework’s computers aren’t perfect, but they are exciting
The Framework is a computer for the future. The future is just not today. But they are on a great path to become a multi bilion $ company.
sourcecodeplz··on Windows Sandbox
There is no piracy if there is a trial available.
sourcecodeplz··on Starlink internet is going from rural savior to unreliable luxury
Not to mention NL is like a blip on the world map as compared to AU on size..:)
sourcecodeplz··on Stressed plants 'scream,' and it sounds like popping bubble wrap
Always said this. Whenever I forgot to water my plants, I could feel them sometimes telling me to water them when I was around.

I feel vindicated.

sourcecodeplz··on CSS is hard no matter how good you are at it
The "trick" is to employ progressive enhancements.

Also, the less CSS, the better. + no shame in using !important sometimes.

All in all, CSS requires experience

sourcecodeplz··on Sam Bankman-Fried Is Charged with Foreign Bribery
They keep piling on at this point.

Again the medias' credibility got lower for me when the NYtimes et all kept defending this thief.

sourcecodeplz··on I made $3k in 16 attempts to launch my SaaS
I know this sounds shitty but what's to stop you from periodically removing some of the features from the lifetime deal until it's just barebones and no support?
sourcecodeplz··on The TikTok ban is a betrayal of the open internet
Ban fentanyl first.
sourcecodeplz··on How much money do we think Substack lost last year?
Whatever. It's a private company and they can value it as they see fit. A fool and their money will always be parted.
sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: Should countries try to increase birth rate in the era of automation?
So we don't go extinct?
sourcecodeplz··on Immune system cells in the gut linked to stress-induced depression
Yogurt and pickles.
sourcecodeplz··on Monica will soon launch a brand new version, codename Chandler
This naming is so cringe.
sourcecodeplz··on We ran a phone check at a Y Combinator event in SF
I use my phone as a phone. When I want Internet, I turn it on and do my thing. Then I turn it off. Have great battery life this way.
sourcecodeplz··on We ran a phone check at a Y Combinator event in SF
But then again one of those notifications could have been from your bank/crypto alerting you that someone logged-in to your account from Pakistan.
sourcecodeplz··on Judge decides against Internet Archive
Locked inside with "nothing" to do, one guy probably got high and had this "revelation" that would "help" everyone else locked inside /s.

It's sad because it has muddied the image of IA and it made them look like rebels when in reality they were doing just fine flying (somewhat) under the radar.

I've also read some comments here from people saying they would possibly stop donating to the IA because of this. Because of donations, the scrutiny is 1000x more for non-profits vs regular companies.

sourcecodeplz··on OpenAI tech gives Microsoft's Bing a boost in search battle with Google
Just use protonvpn, it is free. worked for me.
