For what it’s worth, I’ve found using Perplexity Pro (with Claude 3 Opus) to exceed the accuracy of asking a non-expert armed with Google Search and a few minutes of time.

Ask HN: Best language model for PDF search?
I apologize for the misunderstanding. Here's the body of the Ask HN question:---I've been exploring various solutions for conducting local search and inferencing based on PDFs. While inferencing answers to questions is a desirable feature, my primary focus lies in the vector or embedding search capabilities. Currently, I'm interested in a solution that can effectively handle approximately 10-20...

Does this have potential for running on an SBC? Mine only has 2GB of RAM and I'm interested in running a toy language model on it.

I asked ChatGPT about why I should use NetBSD instead of Linux, and for me the reasons of performance and portability don't hold up because Linux is more performant and more compatible with my hardware.
I can see why some might appreciate the simplicity of the base system and the design of pkgsrc but the former seems to be more in line with OpenBSD than NetBSD and its legacy cruft.

Ask HN: Possible to add 35mm film aesthetic to a digital photo?
I've been messing around with a 35mm camera. I'm a big fan of the aesthetic but I find myself balking a bit at the cost of a roll of film.Is there any faithful way of adding the film look to a photo taken on my phone? Maybe using a generative adversarial network like StyleGAN? I haven't been pleased with the filters I've seen so far.
