Our 2026 hybrid gets 64mpg in Albuquerque. The last time I did the EROI calculation it beat everything by a long shot.

This particular machine has 64GB, but the model is on the RTX 3090 with 24gb. Context is 156k with Pi mono.

The idea that you need a new machine is pretty ridiculous. I bought a used HP Omen with a 3090 last month for $2k. 57t/s with Qwen 3.8.

Show HN: I Built Imgur for Markdown
I’m the author of The Markdown Guide and I built JotBird: the simplest way to publish Markdown to a shareable URL.Paste or write Markdown, hit publish, get a link. No account required. That’s it.Think Imgur but for markdown. Instead of dragging an image and getting a URL, you paste markdown and get a noindex web page.It works from the web app, an Obsidian plugin, a CLI (`jotbird publish...

GitHub Gists look like a code repo, Pastebin looks like a code paste. JotBird pages look like normal web pages. Ever try sharing a Gist with someone who's never used GitHub?

Show HN: Publish Markdown to a shareable URL from your terminal
Hey, all! I built JotBird because I kept running into the same problem: I'd write something in Markdown and need to share it with someone who doesn't live in a terminal. Gists look like code. Pastebins look like pastebins. A blog is overkill for meeting notes.The JotBird CLI turns a Markdown file into a URL with one command: jotbird publish notes.md. Run it again and the same URL updates in...

A small tool that does one thing: publish Markdown and give you a link—no accounts, no setup, no project scaffolding. Paste or write Markdown, click Publish, and you get a human-readable URL you can share immediately. You can update or delete the page later using the same link.
The idea came from frustration with how oddly hard it still is to put a Markdown document on the web without turning it into a repo, a static site, or a login-gated doc. JotBird is editor-light but publishing-first, and I’m now exploring CLI and editor integrations so it can act as a simple publishing layer for tools people already use.
Show HN: Turn Markdown into a web page in seconds
I built JotBird because I wanted something simpler than Gists or static site generators for sharing Markdown.You paste Markdown, click publish, and get a clean link. There's no signup and no friction. Pages are unlisted (not searchable) and auto-expire after 30 days.It's been running for a week and people are already publishing technical docs, educational content, and guides in 7+ languages.

Do you have trees where you live? :) Because we have above-ground power lines in much of the US, wind and ice are always bringing branches down on power lines.

The majority of Americans didn't fly anywhere last year and I'm not sure they would agree with your assessment. This is a case where more democracy — putting region airports on ballots — makes a lot of sense. If the majority of people vote for it, then by all means, subsidize it.

How is it a worse idea than, say, putting all of your money into your 401k fund for 20 years?
