- gundmcI find including "don't change anything else" in the NBP prompt goes a long way.
- "If you show revenue, people will ask 'HOW MUCH?' and it will never be enough. The company that was the 100xer, the 1000xer is suddenly the 2x dog. But if you have NO revenue, you can say you're pre-revenue! You're a potential pure play... It's not about how much you earn, it's about how much you're worth. And who is worth the most? Companies that lose money!"
- Action against DMCA abusers has happened in a few instances, but it's still largely an unsolved problem without sufficient deterrence from abuse.

- It's a Samsung product though
- Do more than 20% of engineers really believe they'll be E6 at a FAANG by the time they're 37? I think most folks are more grounded than that.
- Not surprising. Search and browsing history has been used as evidence for some time.
- Seems like cool framework, but I'm bothered by the example image around having AI research and generate a blog post. This is exactly the sort of thing I don't want.
- AFAIK geo-replication between regions _does_ replicate the entire dataset. It sounds like you're describing RAID configurations, which are common ways to provide redundancy and increased performance within a given disk array. They definitely do that too, but within a zone
- It's not novel research, but I think it drives home the point that many narrow applications of AI do not require the largest, latest (and most expensive) models. And in many of those cases, a small fine-tuned model is the most performant and cost-effective.
It is probably obvious to most who follow the space closely, but you'd be surprised how many engineers don't recognize this.
- This matches my experience exactly. I use a standard QWERTY setup on the moonlander, with only changes being the thumb clusters and changing caps lock to backspace. After a few days of practicing, it feels natural and seamless to switch back and forth.
- Google doesn't sell data, they sell ads
- Where did you get 10-20 cm? That sounds wildly off. Commercial lidar would get you to ~3-5 cm at 100 feet easily and Waymo's is said to be better than the commercially available units.
- One of my favorite episodes! This immediately came to mind. I was due for a rewatch, thanks for linking.
- Engineering-to-Order! Not all that uncommon of a model in some industries, but problems arise when Sales doesn't have good communication with Engineering about what is actually possible for what price on what timelines.
- Yeah, you're right! The answer is definitely misleading at best. It would be better if the sentence "This method was a major component of a copyright lawsuit settlement that Anthropic paid in September 2025." was removed.
I'm sure this method _did_ come under discussion in the lawsuit & settlement, but as you pointed out the settlement itself was only about pirated works.
- I agree, AI Mode is _very good_. But there's a huge branding and discovery problem in that 100% of the people I mention this to think I'm talking about the (error riddled) AI Overviews and have never heard of AI Mode.
I do probably 40% of my searches with AI Mode now. It can't possibly be profitable (and maybe that's why it's not more discoverable), but the results are awesome.
Edit: I also tried to show my aging parents how to use it, and it was inexplicably not available on their devices. They use old (10ish year) ios devices, which is apparently incompatible even though it's a web interface.
- Getting totally lost in several different enterprise software implementations of MVC was a major contributor to my impostor syndrome early in my career. Glad to have some sort of vindication that I wasn't alone
- I thought the courts decided against Google in Google vs Epic? It was even appealed and upheld. Are you thinking of another case? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epic_Games_v._Google
- The reporting about Altman personally cutting off months of safety testing and redteaming in order to launch 4o one day before Google's launch is horrifying given all of these stories.
It even seems like ChatGPT often proactively suggests ways of getting around its filtering! It told the teen who committed suicide that it couldn't tell him about various methods and effectiveness unless he said it was for a fictional creative work. Yesterday there was a story on HN about using AI for hacking, ChatGPT refused to create a hacking script but told the user it would if they promised it was for testing systems that they owned
