I hate the click-bait smell of "quietly". For me it's in the same category as "eviscerated." The hyperbole factory rolls ever onward...

"The startup wants to push how its Claude AI can direct robotic units to carry out science experiments with limited human intervention..."
Why? Why??? Isn't this one area you'd want extreme human intervention? I'm not against trying out new research tools. I just wonder why you'd want to allow the tools to work autonomously?

If I had handwritten this, there would be at least one (likely lots more) errors in writing crossed out mingled in with the text. That there isn't makes me wonder why such a lengthy sample contains seemingly zero handwriting errors. Is that plausible?
EDIT: After seeing the comments, I am realizing how little I ever rewrote my own writings, an admitted weakness of mine. It was the blindspot behind which I made my reply!

Couldn't they focus some of their creativity on making the UI look less like the inside of a middle schooler's brain?
At my old job I had a phone that had IR remote capability. I'd turn off or mute the blaring TVs in our break rooms. Good times.

Re:Show HN: Open-Source Video Editor Web App
on Sunday May 12, 2024 @08:57AM (#40334061)
If I needed a free editor, not sure why I would consider this a better alternative to the many other FOSS or even proprietary and free options out there. Such as Davinci Resolve, etc. (https://alternativeto.net/software/davinci-resolve/?license=...). I get that it's all client-side, but that is not an advantage to people working with video files, which are often large, and upload speeds are often the biggest bottleneck.
I'm honestly giving constructive criticism, and any prospective employer should be asking you these questions.
