It’s either

  Ken Burns, Faux Storyteller
or

  Ken Burns, “Storyteller”

Otherwise, you’re saying the opposite of what you’re intending to say.

More like SimpletonWiki
Maybe just pay the $40 and forget about it until next year.

I’ve also watched him on and off. Do you have any citations for the comments here? I’d like to read more.
The Homebridge integration is also, obviously, broken.
This is the worst advice you could ever take. Always be true to yourself. Always be honest. Your potential client should be honored to have the founder and CEO of their new vendor and your undivided attention.
Works really well with families - each person can have the app installed and it’ll bring all photos onto the device. Yes you can share photos and albums. Yes you need to make a firewall config, otherwise you’d be hosting elsewhere in the cloud. There’s no way around that.
Get the Monument device, attach as much external usb storage as you want and watch it do pretty much the same thing Apple Photos does but locally on the device. iOS and android apps. More than one user — my fam uses it. Plus you can backup the files to any SFTP storage. And the usb drives can mirror each other too. Highly recommend. https://www.getmonument.com/

Can anyone name at least one positive effect Crypto has had?
Sounds perfect for a container and raspberry Pi!
Re:Vowel.com Is Shutting Down on Friday June 30, 2023 @08:22AM (#36533611)
FWIW, we dropped Zoom and went all in on Vowel. They were attentive, video quality was as good as Google, but the transcription and cross company search (and CYA potential) was the killer feature for us. We looked at Gong, but holy crap expensive. Sad to see them go, this is not the whole story though.
Per person or per account?

Yea, agree.

Thank you for this.

This is a great idea and would love to see something like this succeed!

If I understand how all of these OpenAI dependent apps work, none of them actually have the LLM and are doing any kind of heavy processing. AFAIK, they’re all packaging your data, submitting it to OpenAI on every request and then repackaging the output. There’s no real indexing, no real tangible thing, you have to start from scratch every time. So it’s likely going to be very expensive and super slow.

Or am I wrong and I’ve missed something here?

My general rule is to under parent.
What’s the latest?
Great! I hope you’ve really done it, what a wonderful service! Please remember to post here.
Exactly. Contact the owner. Do it. Post here when done. It’s a pittance!
Maybe you should step up and do it. It’s not just about paying a pittance but it’s also about the time to maintain.
I’m sure it’s non zero. Maybe you could offer to pay for hosting?
What’s the TLDR?
Very cool.

Q: Could you please add RSS? I’d use this every day if I could get it in Feedly. (NM found it in a comment https://rss.beehiiv.com/feeds/4aF2pGVAEN.xml)

Q: Why’d you choose 6.5 as the default? Sorry if you answered that already.

Have you even read one of his books?

As an employer, we have better candidates with more experience at the same salary.
Re:Ask HN: Is the job market brutal? or is it just me? on Tuesday April 11, 2023 @02:31PM (#35529232)
I believe that the market is correcting and that salaries will be going down.

Re:SWA Destruction from Within on Thursday December 29, 2022 @01:01AM (#34170015)
I wish we had more details of the specifics: what system failed? What OS was running them? How could phones be the bottle neck? Did scale and volume bring the system down? What are the details? Where is the actual breakdown?
