Made ~$10,000 from that bet last year. I was pretty pleased with myself.

The board of directors, rich shareholders and the C-Suite team. Incidentally they also employ powerless servants who are interchangeable and disposable.

It's interesting to hear the contrast between Meta and my experience talking with ex-Googlers who complain that open-source or industry standard infrastructure is far inferior to what they were used to at Google. Why such a big chasm between the internal tool quality at Meta and Google?

Sounds like a really wild assertion. If I were to guess, the number of employees doing this would be well under 1%. If you have evidence to the contrary, please share it.

Disappointed by the discussion so far. The response seems to be "Trust Apple". The OP's claims are more theoretical and apply to any headset - is there a decent rebuttal of this article? (I am not an expert, I just want good information)

2D vs 3D navigation is a categorical difference.

I don't think he thinks its trivial - just that its not some revolutionary new architecture. It's an immense engineering effort rather than a fundamental breakthrough.

This looks like a cobot (Collaborative robot). They are meant to work alongside humans - chance of injury is low because their speed/maximum force exerted is limited.

The labour was free - the tools required were not. That's a miniscule cost compared to the labour if they _actually_ had to pay for it.

Reddit found the one real solution for dealing with spam (human workers) for FREE and pissed it down the drain.

This is my use for ChatGPT around 90% of the time. The other 10% is trying to get it do something more complicated, getting frustrated and giving up.

I am actually working in a tech company - the hours are better than our US (SF) office... I am super jealous.

yes, lunch time.

Working in China, the whole office shuts down after work and everyone pulls out their foldable beds and naps for 30 minutes. I'm sitting here commenting on HN like a dummy.

Chomsky regards Hume as his personal intellectual hero - people really should read Hume more.

> We just want reddit without the bullshit.

And who's going to pay for it?

Is this going to be Apple's first big bust in a while?

That very well may be true, but I would rather the workers still get paid concomitant to the profits the corporation is raking in rather than even more wealth being accumulated by the capital class running these corporations.

I know this is supposed to be a "self-awareness jab" at HN commenters, but you should really take a look at the stock market. 7 of the top 10 companies by market value are American tech companies. If anything, American IT workers are severely underpaid compared to the profits these companies are raking in.

Am I the online who uses Firefox and old.reddit.com to browse reddit on my phone? It works pretty well.

This is what people at OpenAI believe but say it in a much more palatable way.

As a SW person who's worked at AI chip company, this is 100% true.

The corporate workers were okay with hearing about the warehouse workers peeing in bottles because they were getting their fat paychecks on time. Remember, capitalists will come for you no matter how comfortable you feel.

Two uncontroversially useful C++ features (nullptr, typed enums) entering C is a great thing.

I really wish C++ had Rust style enums. Having to implement them with flags in C++ is a bit of a chore.

Is that in the US or worldwide? What is the definition of black and white?

> global censorship-obsessed WEF

Can you elaborate on this? How is the WEF tied to global censorship?

No comparisons against GPT-4 except on three benchmarks where PaLM 2 does better on two. Not sure why, but I expected better from Google.

It came from Kenyan annotators for ChatGPT.

The next dataset can come from ChatGPT users.

Why did the US vote Trump in for President?
