I tend to agree. it's by far the best coding model i've ever worked with, including astra and if i remember correctly fable, and it's unbelievably smooth at just getting the work done and communicating in simple terms.
if GPT 6 Sol is just 5.6 at half the price it will be everything i really ever wanted.
I have always felt like LLMs are uniquely suitable for legal work. I really have trouble believing we will have hardly any legal assistants and paralegals going forward when these LLMs are so incredible at spotting issues with arguments, figuring out citations, and doing semantic search.
This is the most broken rule in the history of time. Every thread
This is the main thing that Android users have been saying is the differentiator for them using Android, and they're butchering it in multiple ways. Wild.
The person that introduced this bill is not a lawyer. A former tech worker, actually.
Maybe it's time for pitchforks.
I usually find these apple design nitpick articles tiresome but the gif of the guy grabbing at the plate was hilarious and also accurate about user expectations
the reason it's being _changed_ is obviously partisan politics.
BigQuery is completely dead
For professional basketball, the statistical advantage of 3-point has completely warped the game. There are a lot of articles online about it
This is a point of hubris I see among SWEs very frequently, for some reason. People like to think they could make a better system, one that's black and white. The truth is the use of judgement and context is essential to a good legal system.
Finding a way to complain about your wife in a comment about an IDE is peak hacker news.
I guess if they integrate this then that will be the case, I'm not sure I'm convinced that much stuff is going on in dbt cloud that I can't do in dbt core.
A comparison that's obvious to my team is the release cadence of Metabase, which we also self-host. The frequent rollout of new features in Metabase is great and gives me more confidence in the product. But I'm not in the position to decide whether to cough up the $ for the paid version so I suppose it's moot.
Seems like a great pair. Especially the bit about static analysis instead of using string parsing.
Frankly, the dbt product hasn't really evolved much. I've been a bit disappointed with its lack of evolution toward this stuff organically. The "modern data stack" is in kind of in a magic position where they are working at very technical companies but the people using it are not SWEs who can build out the tooling themselves so they are just getting buckets of money without a really big value proposition. My team self hosts a dbt core workflow and it's been almost trivial to build out dbt's paid product ourselves
The beautiful thing about essays like this is that they show you that the author has truly never known what he was talking about. Just a guy who stumbled through life at the right time. It’s a shame these people have so much power and influence. It could be wielded by people much more thoughtful and benevolent.
This is just literal propaganda output by a think tank.
I completely agree. There's something really jarring about watching videos from this time, where things were just more candid in a way that's hard to describe. I only clicked through a few videos and I was smiling from ear to ear. People dancing in a club, a guy riding a homemade little dirtbike in the countryside, babies playing and kids riding bikes. They feel like home videos. It's beautiful.
Amazing all the newfound lawyers in the HN section here pointing out "loopholes" in the rule and then getting corrected by the next commenter.
The FTC continues to do the good, thankless work of making good public policy. I appreciate it.
This is a thing of beauty. Thank you for sharing!

And if someone takes a picture of your artwork, or takes a picture of your person, and posts that to the internet without your consent? Have you given up your rights then?
My answer: Absolutely not.

I've seen this ad a hundred times during the Olympics so far (why do they play the same ads over and over?) -- and this article summarizes how it makes me feel very well.
The logical extension of this stuff is insane -- why have kids learn to write at all? They can just have an AI do it. Why learn anything? It's all on the internet anyway.
There are plenty of good use cases for AI generated texts. Creating transcripts from audio, writing meeting summaries, and other types of rote, monotonous tasks. Writing a letter from the heart is not one of those things that should be outsourced.
If there's anything on this earth we should value, it's humanity. And the tech giants are chomping at the bit to take that away. It's a sad vision for the future they're pushing
Good. Adobe is one of the most annoying subscriptions to cancel. Lina Khan continues to do great work.
> You choose to have Gmail
Disagree with this. self hosting email is notoriously difficult. Gotta give the data to somebody. Plus, your work email is either going through MSFT or GOOG, 99% of the time
Which was written by Lina Khan, (now) the current chair of the FTC. Very pointed.
Reddit has declined in quality significantly since the API changes. All my favorite subreddits lost their moderators, which were always the heart of the site.
Couple that with their constantly pushing their own (objectively inferior) client and killing the best ways to browse the site, I've really dropped off on how much I use reddit.
I can think of an entire body of people who should be excluded from such a role; people who spent multiple years working at OpenAI.
