I made AI Compute Footprint to get an understanding how big the energy, space, water + CO₂ footprint of data centres running everyday AI tasks is, and how it compares with other everyday activities.I have a feel for how long a query takes when it runs on a local model on my laptop but I wanted to understand if we are all running these queries concurrently in the cloud, how much compute is that,...
These people are not liars. It’s anti-vax conspiracies that willfully mislead people and for what? The scientist who claimed a link between autism and vaccine was a fraud who misrepresented research data. Why do intelligent people perpetuate conspiracy theories?
100% agree. We're on Hacker News. We should be open to people who aren't native English speakers using LLMs to help them communicate their ideas and more importantly, cool projects without getting dragged for AI speak in the text.

Public service site made with love+frustration (I wanted to use fable for something)
Did anyone else have the bug (?) where they had to consent to these: "Yes, I agree to help improve Antigravity IDE by allowing Google to collect and use my Interactions data, subject to the Google Antigravity IDE Terms of Service and Google Privacy Policy. I understand I can choose to opt out later whenever I want via my settings." data collection terms to finish the Antigravity IDE installation? I filed a bug and searched for the setting to switch it off.
Mostly art projects:
- VR version of Surface Browser (3d internet browser): https://boxc.net/surfacebrowser.html
- Crowd Strike: faster self-driving: an exhibition where the visitors help autonomous drones target a different visitor each minute with lasers
and also Wingman: a dating app secretary (privacy focus, runs locally on your computer for any dating app that has a web site. It tells you if favourites have messaged you): https://boxc.net/wingman_app.png I'll open source this one if interest.
do you have any recommendations from the list?
It's definitely a backup solution but even since I was drafting the blog, Qwen3 Coder Next was released. It's a functional stop gap if you want to keep things local. I try to be up front in the blog for people to "Reduce your expectations about speed and performance!"
(Also, I love your podcast!)
This week: look at Qwen3 Coder Next and GLM 4.7 but it's changing fast.
I wrote this for the scenario you've run out of quota for the day or week but want a back up plan to keep going to give some options with obvious speed and quality trade-offs. There is also always the option to upgrade if your project and use case needs Opus 4.5.
Thanks! (blog writer here)
Yes and I am also surprised to see this news here. (I voted yes to the restriction) We also approved an initiative for cheaper public transport which is cool.
Draw Things is amazing. Great work and thanks for developing it!
Just a counter example: I live in a multi-lingual area with a big ex-pat population and see english speakers who became multi-lingual with reduced ability to distinguish homophones.
Adobe will be facing an existential crisis trying to maintain this monopoly vs AI generated content, AI augmented content generation tools and cheap image and layout apps.
It is capable of surprising beauty. It will however be as beautiful as the disaster that is modern Facebook -- and the misinformation will be more convincing and subtler.

It seems inconvenient for the author to mention Cordova.
